Genuine question as I am curious — I know it’s pretty obvious with his expressions/ body language that Daniel seemed shy/insecure(?) about having his braces, but has he ever outright said anything about feeling that way with them? Just out of curiosity as I am new around here!

“I feel very different in terms of looks. Fortunately, experience also bought me better looks. I’m not really too fond of showing people photos of me when I was younger”

one of the most fascinating aspects of lestappen to me is that max is everything/has everything charles dreams for: the team, the car, the wins, the titles, the love, the dedication, the trust etc etc he wants to fight max so badly and yet is relegated to watching from the sidelines as max flies while his own wings are being clipped at every opportunity by a team he loves and is faithful to, foolish as he is.

he wants max he wants to be max he wants to beat max

hey just so we're clear im still pissed that this gp was held at all. yes i got the result i wanted, im cheering clapping & hooting. yes it was a legendary drive by max (& by pierre & esteban too actually!!) BUT it was insanely risky. ppl could have DIED. also can we know why n*rris was fined half of what charles was? one of them said fuck & the other endangered LIVES. i genuinely don't understand? am i missing something? is fia owned by mclaren now? or is it the skyf1 virus? what's going on? also what happened at the driver's parade? what were charles & max yapping abt so insistently? charles & max teammates when? and max??? the absolute level of cunt served??? before, during & after the race??? LEGENDARY? ICONIC?? also since when is the whiny lil bitch who begs his teammate for a point & has three wins to his name allowed to call THREE TIME WORLD CHAMPION MAX EMILIAN VERSTAPPEN 'lucky'? and seriously how were there ZERO british reporters in the after race press conference? do they realise how bad that looks? omg. also. pierre & esteban finally smiling in each other's vicinity & being happy around each other 😭 childhood besties to rivals to maybe friends again 😭 WHY IS NELSON PIQUET STILL ALIVE?? hello what's going on i forgor what i was talking abt im so happy for alpine btw that cooldown room healed me. everything seems so much brighter without mclaren in the picture. most smiley cooldown room in a while tbh

it is truly so boring that in a series that hits on racism and sexuality that when talking about racism and sexuality in the show and in the fanbase people act like you are making mountains out of mole hills

I think some of you don't understand that Oscar is not being criticized for racing, people are concerned that Oscar kind of fucked up the possibility of a 1-2 quite early in the race 😭 Lando said that if he braked one meter later they both couldve been out in that corner. It's easy to say "it's not Oscar's fault that Lando can't race his teammate", when he has more to lose with a dnf, and Oscar is taking advantage of the team's decision to let them fight without orders, he's always going to risk more because he knows that Lando is forced to hold back.

I'm not going to blame Oscar for wanting to win at any cost or for not caring about 1-2 today, in the end this is the team's responsibility, they are the ones who don't want to back Lando, it's normal that Oscar doesn't care.

Andrew and Neil on the amazing race

They were signed up the same season that they start playing on the same team to 'rehab their rivalry' to the public. Kevin saying it's a bad idea is 90% of why they agreed to it.

(Maybe the Moriyamas are willing to cut Neil some monetary slack % if he wins and gives all the money to one of Ichirou's charities also so they're determined to do that. Still, it's mostly Kevin saying it's stupid that makes them agree.)

The FBI are freaking out that Neil's running all over the entire world but also Browning cannot deny that Andrew and Neil have excellent on-camera chemistry.

They get orange as their team color and Andrew bemoans it because he thought he was done having to look at this particular eye-searing color but Neil vibrates with excitement.

Andrew is unbeatable at any and all trivia questions challenges, Neil can, will and has eaten anything.

There is one leg where the reward for coming in first is a delicious vegetarian meal and Neil intentionally gets them in second place because he will eat bull testicle no problem but will not eat that. Andrew's mild irritation over this is absolutely edited to look like a huge fight since it's the literal only inter-personal drama the team has the entire season. They absolutely start shit with other teams and do ZERO alliances and just continue to whiz right through the competition without any.

Andrew drives and can whiz through any technically difficult challenge, Neil gets them through any and all direction related issues through his foreign language abilities and also for some of the countries he's like "oh that's like two streets over. It's ice cream in the front and weapons shop in the back." He says this shit to the camera and no one knows if he's joking (he's not).

Andrew curls up in Neil's lap on quite a few flights just because he's having a bad time with that. Neil always just starts saying / doing things that just cannot be shown on TV to protect his privacy.

If Neil has to close his eyes and Andrew takes him by the hand as they go through a house of mirrors labyrinth challenge then no one says anything about it.

They win by a landslide the host comes up, "So how do you feel about Neil now?" Andrew just looks at Neil, "I hate every inch of him." he says and they walk off hand in hand to the great confusion of literally everyone.

Edit: Thanks @the-inner-musings-of-a-worm for the idea once again!

Solidarity

Augusnippets Day 15

Alt Prompt: Flashbacks

Rated: teen

Warnings: graphic depictions of an injury

------

Viggo hadn’t meant to set fire to what he was attempting to cook, but it had happened anyway. Now, Hiccup was here and the fire had been dealt with, but it had left some damage to the kitchen. Viggo just sat hunched in a chair nearby, head in his hands.

“Hey, it’s not that bad,” Hiccup said, coming on over. Toothless cooed in agreement. 

“It’s… not that,” Viggo told him. No, it wasn’t necessarily the fire that he was so upset about. It was what had caused it. 

Viggo didn’t want to admit to panic, to flashbacks, to trauma, but he’d felt the heat from the pan on his face, and he’d fallen into a nightmare he hadn’t been able to shake himself from until there were flames to deal with. That hadn’t helped either.

Heat just made Viggo think of the volcano, of his fall, of his burns. He rubbed fingers over the scars. He hated them. They looked like his skin had melted and cooled, like candle-wax, almost. And he couldn’t see from his left eye anymore. His ear was so mangled that he had a hard time hearing from it. 

And the heat from the pan just shoved him back in that instant, shoved him back into the pain, the daze, the confusion, the defeat. He’d wanted to die. 

And maybe I should have.

“Then… what is it?” Hiccup asked. He took the chair across from him, their knees touching. “Do you need to talk about it?”

Viggo sighed, lifted his head to look at Hiccup with his one good eye. His heart pounded a little at the sincerity and kindness on Hiccup’s face. 

“I… get flashbacks,” Viggo admitted. And why couldn’t h e admit this to Hiccup? He was his lover, after all. “The heat from cooking triggered some.” He shook his head. “It was like I was back there, in that volcano, like life hadn’t moved an inch since it happened.” 

“I’d say it’s moved several feet,” Hiccup said with a bit of a smile. He got a serious look on his face again though. He put a hand on Viggo’s thigh, gave it a reassuring squeeze. “It’s okay, Viggo.” 

“But—”

“You really think I don’t get flashbacks too?”

Viggo blinked at him in shock, but then thought about it. Hiccup getting flashbacks made sense. He’d been through a lot, despite being so young.

“I suppose we have solidarity in that, then.”

Hiccup gave him a warm smile. “I suppose we do.” He looked around the house. “Now, we should open some windows. It’s kind of smokey in here.” 

Viggo nodded, and rose to help, feeling a little better knowing he wasn’t alone.
