Once more (before we die) by chiliconcarlos for chicfest II: hurt/comfort addition 6.3k words | Mature | Charles/Carlos

You asked me, "Do you wanna die alone Or watch it all burn down together?" -'Die Alone' by FINNEAS

Summary:

There’s the smallest of sounds - a mere rustle of fabric that could be mistaken for the wind. But Charles is up in the blink of an eye, his sword in hand and expertly poised against the throat of the intruder.

The Crown Prince of Spain stares back at him, his hands raised in surrender. His expression seemingly doesn’t match the situation, his deep, brown eyes sparkling with mischief and his full lips pulling into a familiar grin.

“Cedo, cariño,” the prince says.

or

"It was not enough for Max Verstappen to burst into his life, give him the best fuck he’s ever had, and leave, ruining Monaco and Max himself for Charles, but he had to ruin his first race even more that it already had been."

In The Reflection, an F1 RPF AU written for @chicfest and inspired by a prompt by @cerona14 ❤️

Carlos raced, and hung out with Lando, and called his mamá regularly and listened to his father when he gave him advice, and brought his sisters to the races when he could, and talked to people, and exercised, and fucked a pretty girl or a pretty boy occasionally, when it was safe to do so, and did everything right, and did not feel like he was drowning; not even a little; not at all.

-

"Carlos?" Charles’ mouth fell open. "What are you - uh, no, sorry, uh. Hi?" Charles said sheepishly, and Carlos couldn't help but laugh.

"Hello," Carlos said, and Charles smiled at him, and Carlos thought He isn't a boy anymore, not really. "It is nice to see you again."

Part One is out now, because we lack Charlos content in this fandom, and I will hit you with this monster brick to remedy that. Let me know what you think :)

Flesh of my flesh || charles/seb || 5k, E

Sebastian, still smiling, tilts his head and looks at Charles speculatively. “Can I take you for a drive, Father?" he asks. "To continue our conversation. I find myself in need of… spiritual direction.” Charles ought to say no, but he doesn’t even consider it, not really. Sometimes falling is like that: as easy as opening your mouth and saying “Yes.”

huge thank you to @notthehardtyres for photoshopping priest charles for me!!! and to @vegasgrandprix for organising this fest ❤️

✨New fic alert!✨

Pack a Suitcase, Follow If You Want

Sebchal, rated T, 8k words

Charles is just trying to wrap up his shift at the bookstore when none other than famous activist Sebastian Vettel rushes in. That wouldn't be much of a problem, either, if social media didn't explode the next day about how they're supposedly dating.

The worst part is that somehow, no one will believe it's all just a coincidence.

MAL I READ CHAPTER 2

as a fellow vers charlos (yes both of em) truther I loved it!! I think this week definitely was a "charles needs control back" kind of week and it fit soooo so so well.

God the whole - I don't want to be around people but actually it will help dilemma. Felt, hard felt!

They are so soft and established relationship here I can't, it's so good and so nice after the pain of the races.

thank you for sharing your therapy with us, it's fantastic.

lots of love <333

C!! 🥹❤️ Sending you love right back!! Thank you for always cheering me on 😜 and yes I have a feeling that they need to have some sort of disagreement soon bc things are just going too well for their relationship…. (i’m sorry ahead of time, but also I may never actually write angst, we will see 🙄)

It’s just like…every good relationship needs to be tested at certain points to make it out the other side stronger than before, right? 💪🏻😅

[chicfest]

i heard people were interested in some previews sooo:

Formula One driver Max Verstappen and Prince of Monaco Charles Leclerc meet up in secret one last time before the Monaco Grand Prix, where they have a special plan for the podium ceremony. Let's just say... it doesn't go as planned

❤️

nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide | charles-centric, gen | 6.5k (wip) | teen and up | 1930s au, survival situation

Written as part of the AU Chicfest | Tumblr | AO3 Collection

America, the 1930s. The Dust Bowl has hit the farm run by the man who took in orphans Carlos, Lando, Daniel, and Charles, forcing them to leave.  When their car crashes, the four boys find themselves lost in the middle of nowhere with nothing but the clothes off their backs, a broken-down car, and a corpse.

I bloom just for you (i've been saving this for you) by evelin24; Charles/Carlos | Mature | 8.3k

my addition for chicfest II, hurt/comfort edition

He still remembers the first time he spurted flowers in his hair. Every little detail is still etched into his mind and the feelings he felt alongside with it happening, although, they were muted in comparison to the pain that was prevailing.

Or: Charles is a half-dryad and he blooms flowers in his hair, but only people who sincerely love him can see it

[hourcat]

with strong hearts full, our souls unite (12,693 words)

"You are a Green Lantern," Charles says, not quite accusatory but sharp enough. "You don't feel fear." The Lantern snorts at him. "You're right," he concedes after a short moment. Then, with a quick little grin: "But I said if I were you." (or: four times charles encounters the mysterious green lantern, and one time he’s not quite so mysterious.)
