Confirmed Max was & most probably still is in hiding a Lewis fan😂🥹

sobbing not his ass going ‘im a fan, BUT🤓☝️ that was a bad move’

but yesssss baby max looooves lewis <3 and it makes sense! max starts watching f1 and sees this kid rising. he sees lewis live his childhood dream, of course he’d look up to that, he’s hoping/planning to do the same some years down the line!

also the grade average😭😭 no one cares ab that here. impressive sure yes yes.

[thethirteenthcrow]

behind every good fic, there's a completely unhinged first draft

[thetwelfthcrow]

yuki x alex? 💛

(this is supposed to go to @thetwelfthcrow)

my reaction upon reading this was literally. huh, oh. oh

oh!

but yes of course! classical teacher x student, alex makes yuki feel safe after being dropped into the big f1 and its high expectations. yuki struggles, has to learn to get to know the car, makes mistakes, is aggressive. and then, then rb decides to put alex as his teacher. alex the tall, goofy lil' guy who unfortunately doesn't have a seat but he's so smart, and so nice, polite and yet knowledgable. he's such an animal lover and has a keen eye. but he's mostly just this idiot that doesn't seem to take things too seriously, and yet he does.

and then yuki. the new guy. alex may be bitter at first - why can you offer him a seat but not me? - but as he gets to know yuki, it gets better. it helps him some. he learns to accept his new role as sim tester and reserve driver and everything and yuki is right there so eager to learn and try everything. he's aggressive, wants to prove himself, doesn't want to struggle. and alex simply puts an arm on his shoulder and yuki knows, i got this.

and then there's also a mild role to pierre, someone who also teaches yuki a lot but isn't His Teacher the way alex is. and suddenly, pierre bothers alex. not because of pierre, but alex sees how pierre touches and jokes and dances around with yuki, gets arguably a lot more time with yuki off track, off hours. and it frustrates alex. because when he and yuki are together, yuki looks at him like he's the only guy in the world. but when pierre is there, yuki is distracted. stuck between the two of them. pierre never makes a move on yuki though, so when alex does (after looong pining, you can fit a slow burn in one year), yuki knows who to choose.

but then... the transfer to williams. everyone knew it was gonna come, alex is far too talented to be left without a seat. red bull was helping him (almost) every way they could. alex tells yuki as one of the first few. yuki is torn - no more alex at his disposal whenever he wanted, but also soo happy for him to have a seat again. to be racing. they struggle, at first, but they make do. they're stronger than that.

[context; send me a ship and i'll give you my honest opinion on it!]

AND VLADIMIR TOO????? this is a love letter to ME specifically.

im OBSESSED with this one

lewis’ glove off, hip to hip, HEIGHT DIFFERENCE ‼️‼️‼️ fuck!!! look how perfect max can give lewis a kiss on his crown😭

[thethirteenthcrow]

sorry what

[thetwelfthcrow]

im sorry but i just came across this video again and i think it’s such a testament of how max and lewis are getting on. like, just how they like each other. sure, if you’re not a shipper they’re still co-workers and rivals but they respect each other at least enough that max feels safe to say ‘he’s clearly getting old’ with a big smile on his face, knowing lewis won’t get insulted by it, and lewis laughs back. max feels enough space to continue on and go ‘you need a massage?’ and for lewis to chuckle in response. they’ve always been so buddy-buddy even when they couldn’t stand each other on track and when they were insulting the other’s race craft left n right. they still joked around, they always have.

the english leaving my body the moment i have to need to use it for work

[thetwelfthcrow]

The 33 ring, the lion tattoo(yes that's from 2015 but idc), the matching big cat helmets. They can't be more obvious 😭

PLEASEEEEEEE theyre soooooo married istg!!!!!!!! esp lewis’ wave of compliments to max (‘we all know max and his strength. can’t say too many weaknesses, if any’ from brazil) and max over this weekend saying he’d have won the wdc in the mclaren. hed have won 2022 in the ferrari. but he would not have won the wdc in the 2021 merc. LIKE ??????? nobody in their league but them. its max and lewis against each other. the rest is not a battle.

this is after half an hour on tumblr....

hey why does tumblr need all this bullshit. by the way

[thethirteenthcrow]

Isn't it a little fucked up that Ryan and Shane feel they have to follow along with what the shippers want though, because they know it sells like you said? Why do you think they do this if Shane also said he didn't want to encourage it?

you're missing one whole big point here and it's ryan and shane's autonomy. y'all keep forgetting that ryan and shane are breathing living human beings who make choices and who stand by their choices? first it's about who they hire and now it's about the content they produce.

y'all talk like us shippers -- or in the context of the previous (assuming ur someone else) anti, an employee -- are constantly holding ryan and shane at gunpoint and play with them like they're our marionette dolls. that's absurd. antis really like to make assumptions for other people and decide what's going on in their brains and what the motives behind whateverthefuck are, but shippers are not like that. we can separate fact from fiction. we know that what we're writing about is fiction and we're more than happy to see both dudes happily married and whatnot. i'm sure i can speak for a certain amount of shippers when i say that we actually wouldn't really want to see ryan and shane end up as a relationship together. they're great personalities and in fiction we'd love to put these little guys in situations, but that's that.

ryan and shane didn't like the content they were making and the company they were working for when they worked at buzzfeed, so they left and took a leap to make their own company. they make the content they wanna make. they make what makes them happy. and they know what works and what doesn't work. i'm speficially talking about editing here - they know what works to leave in a video and what doesn't work to cut out. if they make a lowkey sus joke, they decide to keep it in because the fandom will eat it up. they make that choice because they have autonomy.

if there's one big takeaway from this rant, it's that my biggest constant issue with antis is the infantilising of these grown up men. they can make choices for themselves, stop trying to speak for them. stop putting words in their mouths. stop treating them like your poor little meow meows. if you'd ask me, i'll say that that is fucked up.

Hi! I’d love an invite to the 4433 server. I’m 27. Fun fact: I’m the anon author of don’t pray for love (just pray for cars). My fave 4433 moment right now is probably Max offering to massage Lewis during the Spanish GP press conference lololol.

OH MY GODDDD WE’RE SOOOO HAPPY TO HAVE YOU‼️
