i made fanart for @zoomguanyu’s lovely fic ‘a silent ocean’! the worldbuilding and characterization was just so lovely, and we need more zhou fics in the world. thanks so much for writing cobb! go read the fic!

[zylon-monocoque]

thanks for the tags cobb and gemma!

hm, last line...

"Alex’s hands fidgeted by his side, aching to run his fingers over the wall of gun accessories mounted beside him. The shitty cracked scope on his sniper rifle was more of a hindrance than a tool, and it wouldn’t be that much more to buy one from here…

He snapped himself out of it. They knew, deeply and personally, that everything in this room came with a price."

(this is from a joke fic lol, i have no idea how this'll turn out 😭)

I was tagged by @strawberriesinmoominvalley to share my last line

“Good, that means I can go back to my bath. I hope the water's still warm and my ducks haven't wandered off,” Oscar muttered, as he floated out of sight back into the boot, leaving Lando with a lot of questions but he didn't want to ask them and interrupt Oscar's bath again.

Of course, I'm not giving any context whatsoever to that line

Tagging @scythewrites @jaecantwrite @zoomguanyu @princesspiastri @avida-heidia-5 @britney-rosberg06 and anyone else who want to do it (no pressure of course)

Hiya! Could you tell me more about maladies and misunderstandings?

hi cobb!

it's the one and only Sick Esteban Ocon fic! (the one i have been talking about for ages and taking forever to write...forgive me i'm new to this)

anyway i'm having a good time exploring the thesis of what a sickfic is, as well as touch starvation. still figuring if there should be a romantic angle, because i'm having a good time just centering este and making him suffer haha.

thanks so much for asking :)

Another prompt one? This time with Checo/Nico H. and dogs?

"Why am I doing this," Checo moaned, pressing the phone to his ear and he tried and failed, yet again, to catch the squirmy Pomeranian.

"You signed up for it!" Nico's voice was filled with delight. Of course it was, he got off scot free for the day.

"I did not sign up, the social media team made me." He manages to trap the overgrown furball between his leg and a cabinet, hauling Zeus up with a satisfied smile.

"You are the most difficult boy I have ever babysat for, you know that?" He tells him seriously. Zeus, of course, doesn't care, and responds with a slobbery kiss to Checo's nose.

thank you for the tags @avida-heidia-5 and @zoomguanyu :D

Who is your favourite driver?

my favorite? probably a tie between lewis hamilton and yuki tsunoda, but i am not too horribly biased to any one driver.

Do you have other favourite drivers?

so many! max, alex, guanyu, valtteri, seb, oscar, charles, kimi, and mark come to mind, but i'm sure there's more i'm missing :) they're all pretty cool!

Who is your least favourite driver?

don't think i have any? to be honest my 'favorite' scale just goes from 'love them' to 'aggressively neutral towards them'.

Do you pull for drivers or do you like teams as well?

i like teams...not crazy about any one in particular but i will support them.

If you like teams which teams do you pull for?

I do like red bull and vcarb, and mercedes seems pretty cool too.

How long have you been into F1?

Been a solid...8 months maybe? I'm still so incredibly new 😭

What got you into F1?

a friend! started with the flashy, fast-cut promo videos and challenges and now here i am watching 2 hours of drivers going around in funny shapes...

Do you enjoy fic/rpf?

yes, yes i do >:)

How do you view new fans?

i'm a new fan myself, so i don't have much opinion haha. i think as long as you're enjoying yourself and are willing to learn, you're cool!

If you could take over as team principal for any team, who would it be and why?

hmm, ferrari maybe? restore them to proper red prancing horse glory instead of...whatever they're doing right now.

Are your friends and family into F1?

my family doesn't care for it. friends...i am trying desperately to find irl friends into f1, with limited success. (unfortunately, i'm finding far more bros who are interested in gatekeeping or assuming i'm watching for the 'hot guys' :/.)

however, i have a community of some online friends who like f1! i love talking and learning more about the sport with them :)

Are you open to talking to other fans/making friends?

always!! if you like the sport please do reach out, i promise i'm friendly :D
