DOOMSDAY.

date: 13th february 2024 || time: 11:31pm

‘Joder, hermosa.’ The man groaned, the tight sensation against his cock causing his muscles to tremble, bucking his hips in a stable rhythm. ‘You feel increíble around me.’

��Getting so close, Nando.’ She whined, her fingers gripping his ruffled hair with more force, trying to bring more pleasure to her body; enough to let the sensations consume her.

‘Mmm, Mads.’ He hummed at the tugging of her hands, pressing their frames closer, the woman almost able to feel the warm breath that escaped his lips, panting heavily with both lust and exhaustion.

‘I love you so much, Fernando.’ Her mouth moves towards his ears, whispering serenades of praises, the few words sounding like music to him, able to listen to her soft mumbles for eternity.

‘I love you too, mi vida.’ He chuckles, both of them now relaxing after the sheer adrenaline that pumped through the couple’s veins as they reached their highs. ‘Don’t know how I’d survive without you.’

‘I’m not leaving, not just yet.’ Maddeline giggles, nuzzling her now marked neck into his bare chest, allowing her muscles to rest after the romantic session, smiling at the heat that radiated from his skin.

As the two eventually began to drift off into a tranquil state, the sudden blare of sirens started to surround the once calm environment, immediately creating a sense of danger.

‘What was that?’ Her eyes blurted open, alarmed by the loud noise ringing in her ears, concerned about what was happening.

‘Don’t worry, cariño. You stay here, I’ll sort it out.’ Her husband reassured, planting a soft kiss on her forehead to promise their safety, the man climbing out of bed to wear something appropriate for the serious situation occuring.

Desperate to sort the issue so he could go back to his wife, Fernando slams the door open, marching down the elegant hallways as if he was on a mission, phone firmly gripped in his fingertips. ‘Carlos, get ready. Business to attend to.’ He declared, gaining as many forces as possible. The alarms were only triggered by something drastic, but Maddeline didn’t need to know that.

The angered man continued storming through the house, the device originally grasped replaced for a gun, loaded and prepared to fire if necessary.

‘Ready?’ Fernando makes his way to the entrance, added forces waiting for him to announce the attack on the intruders outside.

‘We’re ready, jefe.’ Carlos replied, weapon firmly gripped in his palms, holding it up towards his eye, able to get a perfect shot if bullets immediately began firing.

The blinding headlights shone as they exited the house, blocking the view of who was actually there unless they approached further.

‘Fernando Alonso.’ A somewhat familiar voice spoke, a stern tone prominent in his voice, whoever it was here was for business purposes only.

‘I’d recognise that Australian accent from anywhere, you’re one of Webbers.’ The group moved cautiously, trying to see the faces that they could only perceive through their speech.

Adjusting to the harsh light, a younger, brunette man leaned on his car, practically staring down the boss in the centre, un-phased by who he was sending daggers towards.

‘Oscar Webber-Piastri.’ Fernando eventually recognised him, unable to not remember the same sarcastic and unbothered personality the boy seemed to cherish. ‘Where’s your daddy?’ He asked, the delightful presence of his father sadly not present in this feud.

‘My dad is not here, sorting out other important duties, you know, actual necessities.’ Oscar huffed, annoyed at the older man’s childish remark, despite being 23.

‘So what are you doing here? Daddy send you to do his dirty business?’ He snickered back, maybe if he could get into the fragile boy’s mind he would be less defensive when the weapons began firing.

‘No, my dad sent me to cause some damage.’ Still emphasising that Mark was not his ‘daddy’, the enemy smiled, a wicked glint in his supposed innocent-appearing eyes.

‘Then what are you waiting for, huh?’ Fernando teased, waiting for the boy to actually make a move instead of standing there and attempting to intimidate him. ‘Do you even know how to use that little toy you like to call a gun-’

*BANG*

‘CHECO!’ The loud screams of Alejandra’s filled the atmosphere as the bullet ripped through the man’s skull, the explosion sending blood everywhere as he fell dramatically to the floor.

‘Told you I knew how to use it, old man.’ Oscar smirked, proud of his accomplishment. ‘I said I was here to cause damage, and I think I’ve already caused a bit of commotion.’

‘Fuck you, you’re asking for it now, cabrón.’ The man seethed, anger fuelling his muscles as his arms jerked up, pressing the trigger on the pistol, beginning the shower of gunfire.

Bullets flew across the two groups, most hiding behind any shelter they could discover to protect themselves, not wanting their last moment to be this very scene.

‘Shit.’ Alejandra cursed, the soaring metal basically skimming her body as she ducked behind one of the cars, scouring the surroundings every so often to check if any enemies could be nearby.

‘Looking for me, darling?’ The voice boomed, the girl’s eyes widening in fear as she recognised the same Australian accent that made people shiver, the person who just murdered one of her father’s loyal workers in cold blood, unable to show a slight indication of remorse.

‘You gonna shoot me too, Piastri?’ She challenged, anger clearly prominent in her voice as she glared at the armed man.

‘Maybe.’ Oscar debated, moving the gun closer to the girl, aiming directly at her forehead.

‘You shoot me and I’ll shoot you. Seems pretty fair.’ The woman added, similarly moving her weapon to a vulnerable area, one click and he would drop dead. ‘You’re not going to, are you? You won’t as much as you might want to.’ Alejandra continued to tease, inheriting the same manipulative skills as her father.

‘Don’t worry, I will eventually.’ His eyes squint, rage consuming his pupils, visibly angered by her attitude that she couldn’t help but smirk at the effect she had on the boy.

*BANG*

All heads swiftly turned to the slamming of the entrance door, an older man storming out.

‘Mark Webber.’ Fernando remained shocked, wondering how weak his security must’ve been to allow the mafia boss to waltz into his home so easily. The house where his wife is sleeping peacefully.

‘Fernando Alonso, it’s been a while.’ Mark greeted, being a long time since he paid the Spaniard a very welcoming visit. ‘Sadly I can’t stay long, my work here is done.’ He almost pouts at the situation, heading back towards the cars. ‘Oscar, come on.’

‘You got lucky, darling.’ He removed the weapon from her head, appearing dissapointed that he was not able to cause any more wreckage.

‘Your wife says hello.’ Mark snickered as he entered the parked vehicle, and that was finally the breaking point.

‘MADDELINE!’ The husband’s voice echoed around the house, desperate for some sort of signal that she was safe, and that all that Mark had spoke was just some scare to make the man weak.

But that theory all came crashing down when he walked into the bedroom. There she lay, once sleeping peacefully for the night. Now resting forever in a pool of her own crimson fluids.

‘Máma?’ Alejandra peeked through before immediately turning away, a slight sickening taste building up in her throat. Usually it would not phase her, but seeing her own mother in that state broke her.

‘Hey, come here tesoro.’ Carlos comforted, wrapping his arms around her as she dipped her head in his chest, allowing the tears to flow down her face, attempting to block out the scene before her.

‘Don’t worry mi vida.’ Fernando was overwhelmed by the crushing feeling of grief in his heart, but it was slowly developing to an enraged desire.

‘I’ll get my revenge for you.’

HOPE YOU ENJOY! <3

Drive To Survive

warnings: When something is written this way it is because it is something you said, and when something is written like this it is because an interviewer is speaking and here its just the narrator of the race

''I remember as a child being able to hear the echo through the city. The sounds of the engines and the excitement filled me with curiosity''

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌

A Netflix original series

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌

Race 2: Bahrain

''Carlos Sainz puts pressure on Fernando Alonso but he saw it coming! Carlos Sainz fights for his position against yn ln for sixth position, but she blocks his way''

Race 3: china

''Fernando Alonso was my idol but that doesn't mean that I will not try to beat him in a race, once on the track we're all rivals and we fight to be on the podium''

DRIVE TO SURVIVE

EP2 S1

''THE KING OF SPAIN''

6 months before the start of the season

Winter tests

1 month before the season starts

''On the Winter testing you get to see this year's new cars on the track for the first time and it is the first opportunity for the drivers to test them to see if they are as good as they expected, if they are as fast and reliable''

''¿How does the car feel Y/N?''

''So far so good, it feels light and fast''

''Copy that''

3 months later

Race 4: AZERBAIJANI GRAND PRIX Baku city circuit

Sunday,29 April 2018

''We are ready for the 2018 Azerbaijani Grand Prix''

''It is the fastest street circuit in the world. It is a very particular track because you have the first sector that is full of 90° curves. Drivers say it's like driving very fast inside some kind of cage. Sector two is very risky in the old part of the city and Sector three is almost all curved and straight''

And the race starts

At full speed until the first curve. Who will arrive first? !Oh no! An accident!

Alonso and Sainz go wheel to wheel Ocon crashes into Vettel! Sainz passes Alonso and now Hülkenberg is fighting against L/N They collide with YN!

''It was almost impossible to drive. The desire to continue the race and the helplessness of not being able to continue and fight but it was not the time to retire''

"The race is not over for us, you can catch them, go get them."

The two red bulls just crashed into themselves!

''What position am I in?'' P14 7 seconds behind gasly

"Grosjean just crashed!"

''Ok now you're P13''

That's how quickly things change in F1

And Hamilton wins the Azerbaijani Grand Prix!

''P10 Y/N, you did a good job''

''Thank you guys''

IN THE NEXT EPISODE...

Spanish Grand Prix

''The first time you're behind the wheel it's just you and the car.''

''Y/N L/N passes Leclerc and is now in sixth position''

''Fighting Alonso for position was almost surreal''

The 2024 grid and do I think they’ve sent a ✨dick pic✨ before

(read my 2021 version here)

Max Verstappen: based on his taste in women? yes.

Checo Perez: the pope says he’s not allowed </3

Lewis Hamilton: Yes. Absolutely. It’s art though, so I’ll forgive him

George Russell: It’s kinda against the law, isn’t it? (he sent Alex some pics … for science ... as practice ... just in case he ever needed one)

Lando Norris: Mostly to Max. There was a weird spot okay, no other reason

Oscar Piastri: No. He’s a child and I am embarrassed you are even asking. Please let's never have this conversation again.

Charles Leclerc: Have you SEEN his dating history. Yes.

Carlos Sainz: between the cheating rumors and the breaking up with his longterm gf? yes.

Esteban Ocon: He may no longer use all that hairgel but he’s dating a 19 year old now. so yes.

Pierre Gasly: again dating history. again his gf’s age. It’s a definite yes (it mostly focuses on his abs though?

Fernando Alonso: Nah, actually, I changed my mind, Fernando is smart enough to know the pink chorizo in his pants is not attractive.

Lance Stroll: The hair. The interest in the NFL. The surfboarding. The snowboarding. Need I say more?

Alex Albon: He did. One time. Lily made so much fun of it though he never tried again. He cried for a week. (George yelled at Lily for it a lil after all HE took the pic)

Logan Sargeant: dick pic as in men named dick right? so of course

Daniel Ricciardo: He wears a ring that says “let’s fuck”. Next question!

Yuki Tsunoda: you know what? yes. yes he did. And it looked good!

Valtteri Bottas: He’s been softlaunching his OF for years now.

Zhou Guyanu: no but he’s sent someone VALTTERI’S dick pic. and good for him actually!

Nico Hülkenberg: Have you heard him speak? yes.

Kevin Magnussen: no. he’s a father. Laura deserves better than you wondering about that. Wow.

#f1 #honestly™️#i will not tag the grid #screaming #i feel this wasn't very funny sorry fam i will see myself out now

2004's X-Statix Vol.1 #26 page 21 by artist Mike Allred, colorist Laura Allred, letterer Nate Piekos and editors Jennifer Lee & Alex Alonso (words by the talented writer Peter Milligan). A nice tribute to the pretty famous ending of the 1969 western Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (with lead stars Paul Newman and Robert Redford).

i think the reason why don (miguel? alonso?) sealed herself is going to be pretty simple: she loves humans. one of her major triggers is seeing children get hurt. she doesn’t want to be a bloodfiend princess, but a human who can go on silly adventures and have fun with her human friends. she’s someone who yearns for human connection, but her very high position in bloodfiend society (and them being seen as monsters by humans) wouldn’t let her have it otherwise. it also ties into carmilla — carmilla does love laura the same way don loves humans, but she is doomed to consume her

Anonymous said: and about dulcinea, i think don’s own dulcinea are fixers as a whole. dulcinea is very much an ideal/fantasy that book!don has made up, just like our don convinces herself that fixers are noble heroes (no, they’re just glorified mercenaries that are more than capable of committing monstrosities if the pay is good) and the way she sees them is highly idealized. just like book!don always talks about dulcinea, limbus!don always talks about fixers and they’re a nigh-constant presence in her dialogue

I agree! I think she has a love for humans and that's likely a huge part of why she sealed herself away. But it's also been nagging at me why or how she became a Bloodfiend, if it was by happenstance or accident or if she chose to become one on purpose---her being the Second Kindred means that she's a part of the first generation that the original Bloodfiends turned, and I think there is a high likelihood that she was turned by choice and not force. How she became a Bloodfiend is very likely to be related to her choice to seal herself away, I think.

As for Dulcinea, I think you're onto something about Fixers as a sort of platonic ideal for Don Quixote is her Dulcinea, since "Dulcinea" is an idealized "lady love" for book!Don Quixote. Your mention of Carmilla makes me think if "Dulcinea" is also "Laura" in a thematic and/or literal sense---I still think "Dulcinea" as, like, an individual is a possibility. Maybe Dulcinea is a heavily distorted and idealized version of a Fixer who inspired Don Quixote's Fixer aspirations. If that's the case, then Dulcinea could be a completely new character, the Black Silence, or the Purple Tear.

It’s Feral Friday!

This week we’re highlighting a couple of artists’ book selections from our collection of Ediciones Vigía publications: Ritual de Sobrevida by Natalia Bolívar, and Cuento para un Hombre que Lloró Tapándose el Rostro by Digdora Alonso. Ritual de Sobrevida (translation: Survival Ritual) was edited by Laura Ruiz, translated by Guadalupe Vento, and designed with drawings by Rolando Estévez Jordán. It was published by Ediciones Vigía in Mantanzas, Cuba in 2011. Cuento para un Hombre que Lloró Tapándose el Rostro (translation: A story about a man who cried, covering his face) was edited by Gladys Mederos and designed with drawings by Rolando Estévez Jordán. It was published by Ediciones Vigía in a limited edition of 200 copies in Matanzas in 2000. Both of these works are highly interactive & sculptural, and are best experienced in person!

Ediciones Vigía (translation: Watchtower Editions) is an independent publisher located in Matanzas, Cuba that was co-founded by artist Rolando Estévez Jordán and poet Alfredo Zaldívar in 1985 as a gathering place for artists and writers to commune. Though their initial print ventures were limited to broadside flyers promoting meetings, they soon evolved into a book publishing house.

Working collaboratively, the artists, writers, and community volunteers of Ediciones Vigía employ repurposed materials such as butcher paper, yarn, fabric, leaves, dried flowers, and tin foil to create unique handmade editions in runs of 200 or less. While the material limitations of the publishing house do echo the economic limitations of everyday life in Cuba, Estévez has asserted that the handmade aesthetic of their publications was not chosen strictly "out of material need or because there existed no other possibilities…. Vigía emerges out of aesthetic necessities."
