Oliver Bearman trying to understand what the fuck is happening in this weird ass race

[atlas-of-a-human-soul]

I often think about how Lewis said he personally called so many drivers in 2020 and personally asked them to kneel for BLM. I think about how he said he personally tried to explain the protest to them and answer all their questions. I think about how he felt when so many of them still declined. I think about how he was fined for wearing shirts for BLM. I think about how F1 stopped him from wearing a shirt that simply said "Justice for Breonna Taylor." because F1 wanted to 'de-politicise' the sport. I think about how when they asked Stefano Domenicali, the CEO of F1, about Lewis' activism, he said F1 is not racist and he does not "Percieve" the racism Lewis is talking about.

I think about how Nelson Piquet, who was fined $1 million for racially abusing Lewis on video was *banned* from the paddock. I think about how he just showed up to the paddock today clearly wearing a paddock pass and hanging out outside of Red Bull, not even hiding inside.

I think how this is all so symptomatic of how rotten to the core F1 is. How Lewis being the most successful driver in the history of the sport did not spare him from this.

As someone who has never read ACOTAR (yet) but have seen some spoilers here and there, I have a weird question for those who did.

Like, on a scale from 1 to 10, how hoe-ish are the Bat Boys? (As for Rhysand and Cassian, the question is about before they met their mates, and for Azriel I guess in general, how manwhorish are they? I'll make a poll for those who don't want to, but feel free to elaborate in the comments!)

but every single person there was a verified terrorist, right?

less then 1k words (951 if you want to be specific) WARNINGS: angst

No one is safe from progress. No one is safe from Erudite. No one is safe from the mindless Dauntless carrying out commands they can't even hear, but can only feel through the iron claws of the serum forcefully injected into their blood.

No one is safe.

Not even you, Eric's favorite.

--------------------------------------------------

Four was looking out the windows of the Prior home when he saw you.

Tris was upstairs, calling out to her mom and her dad, nothing but silence answering her, but you were out in the street. Dressed in black, a gun in your hand, your eyes blank and face slack. Enthralled by the simulation just like the rest of them.

He’d never admit to anyone how his heart sank at the sight.

Not even you were safe from this. You, Eric’s favorite. His poorly kept secret that all of the Dauntless knew about, but would never speak of. The one he’d sneak off to on lonely nights, the one he’d hunt down in the dark corners of the parties and the gatherings. You, who’d gone through initiation just a year after him and Four. Who’d stolen the black heart of their most ruthless leader yet with your strength, your fearlessness, and your bravery.

You. Injected and shipped off as a mindless puppet of war. Like you were nothing.

Four took a shaky breath, his jaw shifting and clenching at the anger that swelled within him. His head turned as Tris came back down the stairs, telling him her parents weren’t here. No one was. He cast one more glance out towards you just as you turned a corner and vanished from sight. Silently, he pitied you, but he didn’t have the time to show it. Nor did he ever think he’d get the chance to express it face to face.

God knows how you’d feel once you woke up. Once the simulation wore off or was shut down, if he and Tris did what he hoped they could.

------------------------------------------------

Eric rounded the corner, steps light, shoulders loose, only pausing once his eyes landed on you. His prize, his plaything.

His favorite.

You marched on, face empty, hands clenched around your weapon, eyes focused, but not on anything real. His hand came out as you approached and you stopped obediently in place, gaze fixed on something only you could see in the far distance. Behind him, Max stepped forward, sighing and shaking his head.

“No one’s safe, are they?” he asked, almost teasing.

“Not from progress,” Eric admitted. He reached forward, cupping your cheeks in his hands, brushing his thumbs under the circles of your eyes. If you were awake, you’d have smiled. All sweet and sugary. In a way that no one ever had when looking at Eric. He sighed softly when your eyes remained vacant. “You’ll understand though, won’t you?” he asked, now talking to you.

Max scoffed behind him, but Eric’s eyes stayed on yours, the only proof he heard his fellow leader being the slight tick of his jaw.

“Don’t be so sure of that,” Max warned. Finally, Eric turned his sharp, gray eyes on the man behind him, frowning just far enough that Max knew his commentary wasn’t welcome. He scoffed again before shoulder passed both you and the man you called your lover in the past.

“I am sure,” Eric hissed, leaning in to press an uncharacteristically gentle kiss to your forehead. “You’ll understand, won’t you, sweetheart?” His fingers curled across the nap of your neck, his pinkies absentmindedly toying with the collar of your jacket. “This is all for the betterment of the city. Of the factions. A necessary evil, hm? How many times have we talked about those? You always told me you understood why they were important. Doing something bad in the name of the greater good , right? That’s what this is… and you’ll see that once you wake up, babe, I’m sure of it.” He leaned in again, lips barely brushing your crown, his eyes closing just long enough so he could enjoy the warmth of your flesh. The heat under your skin. One that he craved more then water, more then his own breath.

He’d tried to let you be awake for it all. Tried to fight for you to be one of the ones left unstuck, but they hadn’t trusted you enough, the others. Jeanine said you’d be a liability. Max said your loyalty didn’t run as deep as Eric thought it did.

You wouldn’t be happy once you came out of it, but he’d be there. Eric would be there, he’d make sure of it, so he could explain. So he could hold you – just like he was now – and speak the way he did only for you about how necessary it all was. Even if you didn’t understand he would make you… because if you didn’t…

... you had to.

He leaned away, sighing heavily, a noise half trapped in his throat as he let his hands slide down your face, the column of your throat, then back to his sides.

“Go on,” he muttered, taking a single step to the side to let you pass.

You did. Steady as all the rest. Eric sighed again as he turned to catch up with Max, his jaw clenched and brow furrowed.

He hated seeing you like that, though he’d never admit that to anyone.

He would have hated it more to see how your eyes fluttered once he was out of sight. How your breath hitched in your chest, your heart racing, beating against your ribs like a war drum. It would have broke his heart to see the tears that lined your lashes as you turned another corner, pausing just long enough to lean your shoulder against it and press your hand to your mouth to stifle the sob that tried to crawl its way free from between your teeth.

He would have hated to know that the serum didn’t work.

That you were the very thing they were trying to eradicate.

That you were Divergent .

I genuinely don't understand the amount of Norris hate. The guy has a shot at the driver's championship and the team should back him up. They failed to do that and his teammate isn't playing the teammate game they pressured Lando into in Budapest. I like Piastri a lot, he's talented af, but he has absolutely no shot at p1 in the driver's standing this season and it's not like it's the beggining of the season for McLaren to be playing with "their number 1 driver and Papaya rules". If Lando decided to turn into a complete menace, I'd understand. Tbh I'd support it at this point.

[atlas-of-a-human-soul]

I swear to god!

If Lando has to defend Oscar and not allowed to overtake I will scream

I mean, even in my mind, I was like 'Oh, there was a genuine connection between [Sauron] and Galadriel.' But, was there?

Yeah! [...] I think any person that he works with is, for his own benefit. So, I think he worked with Galadriel because, I think that he thought that she could give him something. — Inside S2E01, with Charlie Vickers.

[atlas-of-a-human-soul]

I started watching F1 just a bit over a year ago. I’m a Ferrari fan so I completely understand the suffering 🥲 I also like McLaren and Mercedes but only because of the drivers, if George/ Lando/ Oscar were to leave Mercedes/ McLaren I would stop supporting the teams lmao.

I love that Lewis is going to Ferrari from next year😍 but I feel sad for Carlos going to Williams as he is one of favorite drivers

As much as I love to add a 7 (8) time world champion to Ferrari, i worry they're gonna do what Ferrari seems to do best - ruin the end of his career. Hoping Lewis and Charles know something we don't cause I'm in the trenches w the team rn. As for Carlos, tbh it's what I expected. He clearly wanted a team where he can sit out for a year and wait for Audi and he got it. Who knows, the no appendix team might actually have some surprises for next year?

Omg I was scrolling on the “following” tag and I saw a post you made about McLaren during the Hungary GP. At first I thought it was just another f1 account that I follow but when I looked at the username and saw it was you I was shocked (in a good way) because I started following you when you used to post about the Dolan Twins (I believe this was sometime in 2017/2018)

Oh, I've been an F1 fan since forever. My dad was a Ferrari fan, especially loved Schumacher. We both stopped watching F1 when Michael wasn't on the grid. I came back around maybe 5-6 years ago, still suffering w Ferrari 🤣 not sure how many forza Ferrari I have left in me at this point 😅 in general I support specific drivers more than the teams (example Norris and Piastri but I'd Sparta the hell out of McLaren), what about you?
