i'm not sure what's worse, the fact that my first response to strange man showing up at the doorstep asking if i wanted to sell my house was "i'm 15 and i don't know anything about propriety management" or the fact that he fucking believed me
this is so real though i do it too
#but it's not like i even have to come up with it those people tend to go um wait youre of age right#so i get to say no ^__^#THAT'S A CRAZY SITUATION THOUGH?;#SHOWING UP AT THE DOORSTEP?#ik someone puts handwritten* flyers on people's apartments sometimes like hiiiiii im so interested in buying your house but. easy to ignore#*they might not be handwritten but a photocopy of the handwritten message i cant rember#non fantasy#preguntas

I really like the idea of the bat kids designating Dick and Jason's apartments as sibling gathering spots but for opposite reasons.
Sibling needs some comfort? Some eldest daughter advice? A shoulder to cry on or just a lil getaway spot from the chaos of Gotham? Dick's apartment is perfect.
But if a batkid wants to complain, maybe wants to talk shit about Bruce, or maybe even wants to discuss a lil felony in a judgement free zone? Jason's place it is.
And I like to imagine that while Dick readily keeps his doors open and reminds anyone that they can drop by anytime, it's the opposite for Jason.
Dude's got his place riddled with traps and locked up to the high heavens. He makes it obvious he doesn't want visitors, and vaguely insinuates that there are bombs rigged somewhere in his apartment so there's a always a 50/50 chance you might get blown up if he's feeling particularly bitchy one day.
But does that stop his siblings? Absolutely not. Unlike Dick (who assigns himself as the guiding older brother), Jason has been forcefully labelled as the older sibling you go to if you need to complain and stir up havoc. The hundreds of traps in his place mean nothing. And it's worse because Jason is never prepared for when someone drops in.
-----
[Jason, 3 hours into his sleep, blearily waking up to a weight on his chest at 4am]:
[Damian, perched atop him, eyes dead-centre locked onto Jason without blinking]: Hello, Todd-stop screaming it is unbecoming-I just came to tell you that father won't allow me to adopt another stray I found on patrol.
Jason, half-asleep and like 70% sure he's hallucinating: Wha-
Damian: I need you to blow up his car.
Jason:
-----
[Jason, arriving home after a 6 hour patrol, exhausted out of his mind, turning on the lights]:
[Stephanie, previously baking brownies in the pitch black darkness before Jason arrived]: Oh hey! Just thought I'd drop by, y'know, for fun.
Jason: Bruce yelled at you again.
Stephanie: Bruce yelled at me again.
And yes, while most of the time, it ends up as wholesome sibling bonding, sometimes the other batkids just feel like inconveniencing Jason just whenever, because what are siblings for?
[Jason waking up and seeing all of his traps and security systems disarmed and very deliberately broken in a way where he'll have to replace all of them instead of being able to reactivate them]:
[Jason, immediately dialing his phone angrily]: Tim, I swear to GOD-
-----
[Jason giving himself a rest-day and cooking some meals]:
[Dick somersaulting in through the open window unannounced (he missed his brother)]: Whatcha up to, littlewing? :>
Jason: GET OUT-
-----
[Jason casually reading a book, feeling a sudden chill up his spine]:
[Cassandra standing in the corner without so much as an exhale, watching Jason intensely. Who knows how long she's been there]:
Jason: Are you here to kill me
Cass:
Jason: Just make it quick.

outie irving incessantly painting the testing floor hallway. innie irving incessantly drawing burt in his notebook. we know the images of the painting bled through, even in the most incomprehensible and abstract ways. now I wonder if the images of burt will bleed through the other way.
#explains the fucked up dream sequence from ep4 previews....#if outie irv is dreaming about burt.....#his paranoid brain is gonna fill in the gaps and assume. just like he was doing for his innie. that his innie is trying to warn him#about this man. whose doorstep he woke up on after otc was triggered#it just seems too breadcrumb-like. to show irv drawing something over and over again. it feels too familiar#hes not doing it with any particular goal in mind. but whether he intends to or not. his outie and he are connected.#its a two way street.#severance#severance season 2#severance spoilers#irving bailiff#irv tag#wails from the abyss

Bonus 8: How met your mother (CSSR design by @qourmet!)
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#cangse sanren#wei changze#jiang fengmian#It was important to me that WCZ had the hereditary mole. I will die on this hill.#I have been *waiting* for the day to finally arrive when I could finally make this comic. It's been marinating for months.#My mission is to redraw all of qour's character designs one day. They are just *that* good.#CSSR has the vibes of a wandering menace who shows up in towns like a stray cat arriving at a new doorstep for treats. 10/10.#While YZY strongly leads us to believe that JFM was in love with CSSR and that's his whole motivation behind taking wwx in-#-I do think this is (once again) rumour being presented as reality. It's the juicer story to tell after all.#It is still possible that he did love her! But I think that story undercuts the relationship he also had with WCZ.#Yall ever think about how JC and WWX parallel their fathers? How Wei Changze also left the Jiang Leader's side? I do.#Unlike JC though It is far more hilarious and plausible to imagine JFM begging to be CSSR and WCZ's third. You know he would.#My wild headcanon is that JFM and YZY are in a mlm and wlw arranged marriage situation. Deeply unhappy as partners. Better as friends.#they care for each other and I'll admit that there is a beautiful tragedy in them having romantic feelings for each other the whole time.#But I am also here for the gaffs. Let them be unfulfilled homosexuals together.#Meanwhile cssr and wcz are having incredible hetrosexual sex in a bisexual way that WILL leave him pregnant by the end of it.

Not That Kind of Doctor
Dpxdc Prompt #49
Jazz enjoys being organized, maybe its something left over from the fact that no one in her house ever was, or it could be something else. She made a promise to not psychoanalyze herself so honestly, she hasn't tried to figure out. That's not the point, the point is when Gotham she made a checklist no danny, its not a bingo card of sorts for herself.
Bandaging a crimelord every other day was not a part of that checklist!
She doesn't even know why the Red Hood keeps on coming to her. Every time she asks the guy the conversation goes a little something like this:
"You're a doctor aren't you?"
"Not that kind of doctor, and don't you have access to top of the line hero-medical-things?"
"Not a hero, and if you aren't medical what kind of doctor are you"
Then he'll make a guess on what she's getting her doctorate in, and every time Jazz is certain he's guessed everything except for psych!
At this point she wonders if he's doing it on purpose.
he's not actually, he's just from gotham so he thinks that everyone in the psychology industry is automatically crazy and thinks there's no way the pretty redhead who patches him up could be one of them.
#jazz is so confused on why this crimelord keeps showing up on her doorstep#meanwhile jason is getting increasingly confused on what she could possibly be studying#anger management ship#dpxdc#dp x dc prompt#jazz fenton#jason todd#queenie-prompts

but just imagine Kenma Kozume being so needy that he comes to you first and initiates physical contact by wrapping his arms around your waist and pressing himself completely against you while burrying his face into your neck muttering, "baby please" and it completely distracts you from whatever your doing and all you can think about is the hard on thats being pressed into your ass and him slowly grinding himself onto you and he's so fricking horny that he doesn't mind being vocal about his needs and wants just this one time
#please i need him so bad#like show up on my doorstep or smth#kenma kozume#kenma kozume smut#haikyuu#kenma kozume x reader smut#kozume kenma#kenma kozume fluff#kenma kozume x reader clingy#clingy kenma kozume#kenma kozume x reader fluff

In this hypothetical AU of minmaxing the assassination attempt he then somehow makes it to Vasco an utter mess because he has no where else to go...hmmm

i just thinks it's neat that luke's whole shtick is targeting demigods whose faith in the gods and their environment are weakening. and one of the last people he visits before he turns is annabeth.
#can you imagine the anguish this girl must have been in#living amongst her mortal family and never feeling like she was a part of it#falling in love with a boy who she believes is destined to die on his sixteenth birthday#but he's spending the year avoiding her and everything godly#and the only two people who have atood by her are either immortal or about to be overtaken by an evil titan lord#and then luke shows up at her doorstep with a faded promise to be everything she's ever wanteda#and she has to swallow her pride and say no#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo text post#pjo#pjo headcanon#annabeth chase#frederick chase#thalia grace#luke castellan#percy jackson#annabeth chase headcanon#annabeth chase angst

Countdown to Agatha: Day 795
Natasha: “So, are we just going to let her stay here? After all she’s done?”
Wanda: *sighs* “Look, I know it’s not ideal to have a power hungry, matricide commiting witch under this roof, but it’s safer to have her here rather than out there. At least now we can monitor her.”
Agatha, sat at the kitchen table in front of them: “You know I can hear you right?”
Natasha: “Obviously.” *turns to Wanda* “How can you feel safe with her here?! Not even to mention Y/N - we’re endangering them!”
Y/N: *sets down a tray of tea and scones* “Here we are Agatha! I apologize, we don’t have any tea leaves infused with the souls of the damned, but hopefully some fresh baked goodies will make up for it! How do you take your tea?”
Natasha: *horror* “Y/N! Get away from her!”
Y/N: “Why? She’s a guest!”

ok but what if neve and lucanis get together during datv, break up because they're both working through their damage on top of having a fuck ton of new stressful responsibilities, and don't see each other for a year, two, five?
they try to write messages to each other, but - they're both important people. they just don't have time. they might share stories once in a while through the post, sure, but any important things they have to say to each other... it's difficult to write it all down properly, in ink on paper like that. most attempts perish as crumpled parchment thrown into a fireplace.
there's a stretch of many months, maybe even a full year, when they don't hear from each other at all. until SOME twist of intrigue brings them elbow-to-elbow in the shit again.
I think for Lucanis it's a surprise, that he can feel some glimmer of ease again when he's around Neve (she was always the one who could make him feel safe, comfortable). The time since the veilguard has been nothing but the stress of carrying on the Dellamorte name and answering to Caterina's expectations and trying, trying so hard, to be who he needs to be as First Talon - putting his head down and slogging through all the parts of the job that he hates, dreads, never wanted in the first place.
I think for Neve it's a bit of a shock, because she actually does not recognize him immediately. and it's not because he's changed his appearance - he still wears his hair in that neat mullet (though now with some gray in the black), dresses smartly in crow leathers, keeps his beard trimmed. truly the way he carries himself hasn't changed that much either (he's always been guarded, careful). but his face. his eyes.
Neve remembered relishing every unguarded glance she caught from him. those eyes that shone so brightly in the light of the kitchen candles when they were both up at ungodly hours. even though he had seen so much pain and misery and death, Lucanis' eyes showed his heart; still soft. open. welcoming. easy. dark and warm like shadows cast by firelight.
when she sees him for the first time in years, those eyes are cold. hard. closed off. even though he slept so little at the lighthouse, Neve can't help but feel that she has never seen him look so, so, so tired.
and i think it likely doesn't take long for Neve, greatest detective in Thedas, to see the way he interacts with the other Talons, with Teia and Viago, with Caterina - and put together exactly what's been going on. And I think she'd stop at NOTHING to try and fix what she sees as a terrible mistake made by the veilguard, including her. they aren't to blame, of course not, how could they have known? but even so - when the veilguard ended, Lucanis was left to the snakes and the dogs.
so maybe she makes a pact with Teia and Viago, who had almost given up on Lucanis when Neve showed up again. maybe she finds a surprising ally in Illario, who has always known what First Talon would mean for Lucanis. maybe she calls on Davrin, Rook, anyone else from the team who might be able to help. one things for sure tho. Neve and Caterina fucking hate each other.
and then neve and lucanis kiss
#sometimes pitting two girl bosses against each other is ok actually#honestly i think illario becoming first talon could actually be sick#the traitor crow becomes the first talon#what a twist#datv#datv spoilers#dragon age#veilguard#lucanis dellamorte#caterina dellamorte#illario dellamorte#andarateia cantori#viago de riva#nevecanis#neve x lucanis#there is a scene where viago saves neve from poisoning#and honestly caterina doesn't have to stay a villain#she can have a redemption arc#house husband lucanis dellamorte#i want to see that man kneading bread#also neve and lucanis don't HAVE to kiss#but i think it would be sweet#maybe he goes on to travel for a few years#and then shows up at neve's doorstep with a loaf of bread and some fried fish from hal#or maybe breaks into her house and she comes home to him making her dinner#idk they make me ill

Some Goth Fam Modern AU headcanons I can't stop thinking about and will probably explode if I don't put pen to paper or in this case- Type to screen
Here we go. This is going to be a long one;
-Shanks isnt officially part of the goth family. Even though he's know these kids since mihawk had them, helped raise them is always there in the morning to take them to school and is practically their other father. Perona and Zoro still refer to him as "Mihawk's bum of a boyfriend" (byprodcut of hearing mihawk call shanks a bum one to many times).
-Zoro and Perona relentlessly troll mihawk for having only 2 friends and they are his boyfriend and business partner. even though perona herself only has like 1 friend and a gaggle of minions.
-Perona got a giant bear cut out all the stuffing and used to make a baby zoro wear the carcass of her destuffed bear. baby zoro was very chill about all this.
-People think mihawk is a housewife but he actually has a job with the government that nobody really knows what it is and nobody is really allowed to talk about. he just never goes in except for the once a month meeting where they threaten to fire him.
-They have a groupchat just the three of them called "The Family" and then another one with shanks sinces hes the one that actually drives them places called "the family and shanks"
-Mihawk is the type of person to get a family portrait every time the kids have grown to look significantly different from the last so every couple of years. They are all extremely giant and actually painted. these are the only family picture hanging on the walls. even tho mihawk secretly scrapbooks all the pictures shanks takes.
-Mihawk has had them since they were toddlers they still call him Mihawk tho. excpet zoro hits 13 and starts exclusively referring to him as Hawkeyes or "that guy".
-Mihawk is a crunchy mom tm and they grew up in an ingredient household. But because mihawk is a grazer at heart and zoro needs fuel like a truck and all their little friends all practically live at their house. Theres awlays charcuterie boards on hand. Zoro never had a pop tart until he went to Luffy's house one time. He asked Mihawk what fruit snacks are and he reacted like zoro just summoned the devil into their home. He's very Nara smith I cook all my kids meals from scratch coded. He's definitely running one of those mommy blogs and being really bitchy and personal attacky about the whole thing and hes not even trying to hide it. Literally two steps away from bring a mommy influencer. literally just needs the instagram page (which he has but doesn't know its run by perona).
-Despite this zoro and perona cant cook for shit. That one tiktok video of the woman showing her husband what she used to have for a midnight snake as a kid in an ingredient house and it was just a bowl of mixed vegetables is so them coded. Despite mihawk's nara smith tendencies once thye get to a certain age every meal but dinner is every man for himself. mihawk only cooks once and so raises a family of girl lunch havers and grazers. Zoro thinks a greenshake is a snack. his eating habits are a source of constant stress for sanji.
-Perona is definitely an influencer her content ranges from fashion stuff to content about her strange family (she tries to get them to make tiktoks and msot of the videos are just zoro's resignantion and mihawk's funnily shutting that shit down with a swiftness) and just stories of her weird family and her brothers even weirder friends. nobody can figure out what their family dynamics are.
-shanks definelty makes those "dealing my italian husband psychic damage videos" except they are like my Spanish-Romanian husband and mihawk get genuinely upset and every video ends witrh the threat of shanks being murdered.
-Nobody on these channels realizes that this mihawk is the same internationally recognized as the best swordfighter to ever live Dracule Mihawk.
-Zoro goes to the local community college with most of the gang while perona goes to a fashion college as a fashion/fashion history major. she lives on campus but is home every weekend tho so mihawk can do her laundry and restock her fridge.
-Only luffy and nami who are his childhood friends truly know just how fucking rich his family is even tho Zoro and the parent that zoro and luffy both weirdly share, despite not being otherwise related, look and act like bums. They meet the rest of the straw hats in college.
-At no given time do shanks or zoro even have 20 dollars on them something that endlessly frustrates everyone else around them. Usopp has bought one to many meals for zoro to be nothing other than incensed when he is invited to "summer" at their lake house thats more like a resort. Zoro can live in a converted mid century castle but Usopp has seen him pay for a sandwhich with a collection of change.
-people often wonder where exactly perona got her bratty attitude from because zoro and mihawk are pretty chill, composed guys. and then they see how mihawk acts around Shanks and the lenghts of childishness Shanks can push him too and then they
-Zoro and Mihawk are endlessly competing at petty meaningless activities espoecially if they involve cutting things with a blade. they have a running count into the 300s off how much mihawk has won vs zoro and he is endlessly smug about it. Zoro has only just begun to start clawing more victories for himself. He recently won their speed cucumber cutting challenge and mihawk was non to pleased about this.
-Adopted this one from a mutual; but Mihawk used to take Perona to all the twighlight, pop girlie, pastel goth stuff and pretends that its all a hastle even tho he's really into the stuff and has been since perona got into it.
-They are the kind of family that always had dinner together but would have every other meal wherever and whenever but since perona is away at college it became sunday lunch and dinner which just turned into sunday bruch for practically the entire neighborhood because zoro and perona keep inviting their weird friends over. and now its a whole thing and mihawk is none to pleased.
-Mihawk was about to be an empty nester and then s-hawk falls in his lap and heres another kid he has to look after and makes sure survives till adulthood 🙄. S-hawk ironically for all he looks exactly like him is the child that acts the least like him (This is largely zoro's influence) And he's definetly that stereotype of when you parents decide to have a kid in their 40s and they grow up in a completely different household than you did. like who even are these people?? S-hawk actually gets to have fruit snacks and zoro is still super salty about this. Because Mihawk was just off achieving his biggest dream with nothing better to do that to pout all his energy into being a parent to these two monsters. but now he has actually has a job that he actively needs to work at🙄
-Zoro looks baby sits s-hawk the most and like s-hawk is like 5 to zoro's 20 and zoro is definitely one of those people that doesnt "play" with kids instead he just folds s-hawk into whatever routine he has for the day without missing a step. He takes him with him to his classes at the community college. He pulls up a chair for s-hawk he has his own little notebook and everything everytime people try to coo at him Zoro tells them to leave him a lone the little dude's trying to learn here. He takes him to the gym like all those videos with dads and their babies repping sets. He gives s-hawk baby dumbells and teaches him proper form and everything. just goes about his life like there isnt a 5 year old trailing him like a duckling. Zoro puts on act for mihawk but he loves having a little buddy since chopper's kind of outgrown it.
-Zoro and Mihawk both talk to baby s-hawk like a regular person. Mihawk talks to him likes he's a distinguished gentleman with thoughts and opinions and who should know better than to fling food and toys and he often reads him the news. Zoro talks to him like he's just a dude definetly the type to have a beer with the baby while they sit on the couch watching sports. Perona and Shanks are the ones that actually treat him like a baby and baby talk him and shanks is definietly one of those parents that's always doing extreme sports stuff with a baby while Perona essentially treats him like a teddy bear / dress up doll. she and mihawk are the only ones allowed to make clothing decisons for him after the time he came home from a shopping trip with zoro and shanks looking like both a bum and a middle aged dad on vacation. Shanks was allowed to keep one tiny s-hawk sized haiwain shirt.
-Zoro essentially raises s-hawk like he's his child 😭. Like Junior and devante from Black-ish but he's less upront about this. He keeps adding things to the kid's schedule without telling Mihawk and essentially treats mihawk like the unwanted third in their relationship. He takes him everywhere with him. People would think that was his kid if he didn't look so intensely like mihawk. He signs baby hawk up for kendo classes from the age like 3 cause he'll be damned if he takes after mihawk's swordsmanship. He attends every practice he gets very intense during matches. its a whole thing. He also keeps signing baby hawk up for random extracurriclars that Mihawk can't keep up with and change depending on season. Baby hawk is in baby gymnastics with all the other seraphim. Zoro is very invested in this. Zoro the type to pull up to a heist with a baby.
#im just going to end here because this got really long very quickly#but ive been meaning to do something like this but kept sitting on it so here we are#my word vomit#how did mihawk get the kids you might ask they showed up on his doorstep as toddlers one night and then refused to leave#he's had s-hawk since he was a baby tho. how you might ask?#maybe he's adopted and it's just a coincidence that he looks exactly like mihawk#maybe hes still a govenrment experiment clone in this au that mihawk has to raise#maybe mihawk fucked king ang gave birth to him himself who is actually to say#this is really long and i'm pretty sure 40% of it doesnt make sense and 80% is just random rambling#but i really fucking love goth fam#i still have more kicking up there tho but maybe for another day#i just love the idea of their family being so weird and convulted with shanks rayliegh roger rouge buggy and asl#and them essentially living out of each other's back pockets is just such a vib. like you dont know where one family ends and another begin#i love it i just eat it up#goth fam#one piece#throwing thoughts to the void#dracule mihawk#op#hawkeye mihawk#mishanks#akagami no shanks#shanks#red haired shanks#akataka#goth family#one piece goth fam#perona#ghost princess perona#roronoa zoro

using this hellsite for its intended purpose (posting smut on main)
this is technically two ficlets, but I'll be posting the second one later. for now, I gift u all 1.7k words of omegaverse, and it's actually max and esteban, omega/omega (I cannot believe I'm writing these words I am going to hell). hi yes hello mature content here. not violent just horny.
This is not any less embarrassing than Max had expected it to be, standing at Esteban's door at five in the morning. He hadn't even sent a heads up text, he'd just shown up.
He's not even sure if Ocon's in the country.
He hopes he's in the country- Max is kind of fucked otherwise, because then he's just standing in front of the door for nothing, and he's pretty sure this is preheat, but he doesn't fucking know.
His heat crisis at the airport hadn't been sexual at all. His cresting heat in his own flat in Monaco had been brutal, but tame compared to what's to come, and Max doesn't exactly have other omegas to ask.
It's not that he's scared, he just-
Well.
There's footsteps on the other side of the door, and then quiet for a moment- Esteban must be checking to see who it is.
Sure enough, the door swings open a few seconds later.
"Verstappen, what the fuck- oh shit."
Esteban smells good, is one of the things Max notes as he's being dragging inside, door shut behind him. He has a big fluffy nest on the floor of his living room, and there's an action movie paused on the screen, and-
Max is pretty sure he's talking to him.
"-aaaaaax. Hey, earth to Verstappen-"
Max blinks rapidly, and then he tips forward and buries his nose in Esteban's neck, pressed right against his scent gland.
"Ah!"
Esteban yanks him back by the collar of his shirt, and Max whines, because he smelled good and he wants more, and it's making him feel better being next to it.
"Why did you do this. Why the fuck- why did you come to me, how long have you even been an omega, what the fuck-"
Max feels a whine building in his chest, because that's a thing omegas do, and he's rapidly realizing he's going to need to get comfortable with a lot of uncomfortable things about his designation soon.
"Christ, okay- okay, come on."
Esteban is leading him into the living room, and Max hopes they're going to the nest, because Esteban's looks so good, better than anything Max has ever been able to build.
Esteban bats at his hands, gently nudging the side of Max's foot.
"Shoes, please."
Max toes them off, and then Esteban tugs him down into the nest, and it's so soft, soft and perfect, and Esteban's got this omega thing on lock.
Max immediately shifts towards Esteban, because he wants snuggles, wants the warm heat of someone else, and Esteban's scent is so nice, even if he smells concerned and bewildered at the moment.
"Right, preheat, okay. Maybe the Dutch do it differently."
Max almost wants to laugh. He has no idea how Dutch omegas nest or heat. He's never been allowed near other omegas.
Esteban sighs, and there's a begrudging type of fondness in his eyes for a moment.
"I'm doing this because I'm a good person, Max, so remember that next time you want to shove me, yes? Good. Come on, shirt off."
Esteban tugs his own shirt over his head, and Max's brain isn't quite moving at its normal pace, but he's compliant as Esteban bats at his hands, pulling Max's shirt off over his arms and shoulders before tossing it to the side somewhere.
Max just wants to snuggle.
Esteban pulls him in, letting Max settle his nose right above his scent gland, chest to chest in the nest as he pulls a blanket over them.
"You have no idea what you're doing."
Max makes a weak whimper, distracted by pressing his nose in until his brain is just a looping mantra of Esteban, Esteban, Esteban-
"Right."
Esteban kicks up a purr, and Max melts on top of him, loose muscles and head fuzzy. His throat hitches, but he can't quite make it go- still doesn't know how.
There's a nose in Max's hair, and one of Esteban's hands comes up by his neck, long fingers running down the side.
Max feels like there's a weighted blanket on his brain, making everything slow and syrupy.
He loses track of time- he's pretty sure Esteban starts his movie back up, based on the explosion noises.
Max barely even registers that he's softly grinding his hips over Esteban's thigh, only notices because Esteban's scent sweetens under his nose, and his purr gets louder.
"Max."
It's gentle, and Max makes a responding hum. His eyes are half open, not really seeing anything.
"Max, you are supposed to heat partner with an alpha."
Duh. Max would've done that, if he was out and trusted any of the alphas to handle him right- his first choice was Daniel, but he's out of the country with Scotty, and Max didn't want to interrupt their trip.
He can't exactly go to Seb.
Asking any of the garage members violates probably a million FIA policies and also the law in a few countries. Lando and George are omegas, but they're new and Max doesn't know either of them, which leaves him with Esteban. He'd shown up on a whim, even though he isn't part of the pack, because he knows he can't handle it alone.
An older, more experienced omega was the logical choice.
He doesn't realize he's whining until Esteban noses at his hair, scent wrapping around him.
"Okay, you don't have to tell me- it is okay, Max. I will help you."
Esteban hitches his thigh up and Max gasps, lightning bolts going through him at the change in angle. Long fingers run down the side of his neck before pressing down on his scent gland, and Max ruts forward, nose back in Esteban's neck. It feels good, and it smells good, and if things could stay slow and hot and nice just like this, Max might be okay with heats.
Esteban breaks that fantasy.
"Go on Max, get a good one in before your heat really hits."
Max whines softly, and Esteban sighs, hand slipping down Max's spine to settle on his lower back, helping him with the drag and slide of it all, the push-pull. Max's brain is liquid, a soft loop of sensation and feeling good.
It's not a rough orgasm by any means- it's gentle compared to others Max has had, washes through him in a way that's slow and overwhelming, leaves him collapsed against Esteban's chest, slick cooling between his thighs.
Esteban noses at him again- he's scenting him, gently pushing the side of their heads together. Max hasn't been scented by a member of the pack before- Daniel scented him regularly before he left, and Nico had done it frequently as well, but they're both gone now, and it's been a minute since anyone outside of Redbull bothered.
"You are okay with fingers? Toys? Mouth?"
Max's hips jerk again at the thought, face heating up. He nods against Esteban's neck, keeping his face hidden.
"Okay. Max, I am not set up for a heat at the moment- I need my alpha to come by with groceries, is that going to be alright?"
Esteban has an alpha? That can't be right- Max has his nose on top of Esteban's scent gland right now, there's definitely no mark here.
He noses at it pointedly, enjoying the spike is Esteban's scent at the sensation, his soft gasp.
"Don't be archaic Verstappen. I can have an alpha without having a bite. I have two, thank you very much."
Okay- Max knows the alphas of the pack significantly outnumber the omegas, but two is just greedy. His scent must change, because Esteban snorts.
"I didn't think you wanted Pierre or Charles, but if you want to share for your heat we can do that."
Max pauses for a moment. He's... actually not sure. He hasn't been with an alpha before, but if Esteban is here- if they listen to him-
Max isn't stupid. He knows his first proper heat is going to be bad, that's his consequence for being on suppressants for so long. Toys aren't going to cut it. They'll keep him from Red Heating, sure, but that's about where that ends.
He's going to be begging Esteban for something he can't give him.
Pierre isn't terrible. He's not close with the rest of the garage, and Max is pretty sure he's somehow managed to entirely miss the memo that Max is the pack omega- probably hasn't picked up on Redbull being a pack at all.
In his defense, there hasn't been a garage pack on the grid since before Max was born.
Charles- Max isn't sure how desperate a heat is going to make him, but if he ends up begging Charles to fuck him he's going to jump out the window when it's over.
Weird cresting heat induced insanity aside, Max has not once wanted anything to do with Charles. He's annoying and entitled, and Max still doesn't believe that he's actually an alpha.
He seems like the kind of guy to want to be a gentleman to an omega, which-
Charles has not once ever been gentle to Max, it's practically the foundation of their relationship, and Max isn't sure if he's going to want kindness and consideration for his heat.
He's not freaking out about it, he just-
He doesn't know.
He's whining into Esteban's neck again, a slow need starting to build deep inside of him. He wants them, he doesn't want them, he cares, he doesn't care- everything is so difficult.
Esteban rattles out another purr, scent heavy in the room. Max settles, nose full of fresh snow and eucalyptus.
He nods his head, a tiny shift, and Esteban's scent takes on a pleased note, sweet and satisfied.
"They will be good, I promise. I'll kick them out if they aren't."
Max is fairly confident that's not how that works, but maybe the French are different. Esteban slides one hand to tap at his phone as the other shifts from Max's back to the front of his hips.
"Okay?"
Max nods, and he's sure his own scent is all over the place, canting his hips up for Esteban to slide his hand down under his waistband, long fingers cool against his overheated skin.
His scent spikes again and Esteban purrs, nosing gently at him.
"It's okay, Max. It's alright, you're okay."
Everything is-
It's a lot.
Max is whining, a soft noise as Esteban works his fingers inside of him, and they're so different from Max's, feel alien inside him, but they feel good too, and Max-
Max wants to be good, wants to show Esteban that he knows how to be an omega, a good omega, even if the pack doesn't want him.
He knows it's not his strongest area- he's poured all his time and effort into racing, doesn't know what to do with himself outside of it, but this- Esteban's fingers inside him, Max's nose pressed into his neck, a slow build- this feels good. It feels right.
#omegaverse#max and estie you have that dynamic where you don't like each other as people sometimes#but you have a unique factor in common that alienates you from others#so you kind of have to stick together#might have to do a tiny lil estie pov of having preheat max show up at his fucking doorstep out of nowhere#ficlet

Always funny to me that Dick Grayson put so much effort into disguising himself every single time he entered and left Starfire’s apartment so no one would know he lived there, only for a 13 year old kid to show up at her apartment asking for him by name. And then when Dick isn’t there, Tim just breaks into Dick’s previous apartment he hadn’t lived in for months. At that point why bother with the disguises if a 13 year old is always figuring out everywhere you live.
#also Dick gets back from meeting Tim and soon enough Tim just shows up on his doorstep again and is like ‘train me’#the chaotic brother duo where Dick is just being stalked by an enthusiastic child with an unlimited bus pass budget (canon)#humor compounded by the fact that Dick’s reaction to this after ‘wtf’ is ‘you’ll make a great robin :)’#tim drake#dick grayson#batfam#batbros#bonds: I knew it was you#heroesriseandfall#batman: a lonely place of dying
