lestelledreams:

the fact that arthur leclerc seemingly doesn’t have a huge charles shaped complex despite everything is so insane to me, like ….

imagine you’re a 13/14 year old boy and your parents tell you that you have to give up on your dream, most likely for good, because the family can only afford to keep one child’s racing career alive. not only are you being told to give up on your dream, you’re also being told to give up on your dream in favor of your older brother’s dream — the same dream that the both of you share. that. that’s got to be brutal. it’s indirectly being told that you’re not as good as him, that he has a better shot at making it than you. and no matter how much it is the truth it’s still gotta sting. a lot.

then a few years later you’re able to pick up the same dream again, allowed to fan the dying embers of hope into a fully fledged flame, and allowed to dream. you’ve missed some of the most crucial years of development for young hopefuls in the sport but damn it if that’s going to stop you. you will grab at this opportunity no matter what. only this time the reason you have the money and sponsors to even compete at all is because your older brother succeeded. he made it. he is racing in f1, and, on top of it all, is being touted as a potential world champion in the making. the only reason you can chase your dream again is due to him proving it was the right choice to let him continue when one of you had to quit to support the other.

you’re now back in racing, but everyone and their mother is calling you a nepotism baby and talking about how you wouldn’t be where you are today if not for your brother (without knowing how true that actually is). your last name is not your own anymore, it is his and you’re merely borrowing it, and everywhere you go discussion follows if you really deserve to be there despite the fact that you just want to race like all the other drivers, despite that so many other drivers also come from extremely privileged backgrounds, only that those kids never had to take a break in the middle of their career.

every interview, every social media post, every youtube video you show up in is haunted by his presence. when you speak the first remark is that you sound similar to your brother, when you make a certain expression it’s that he has made the exact same one before, and when you laugh it’s called identical to one much more famous than your own. you’re not your own person, only a distorted mirror image of someone who has achieved everything you also dream of; and who achieved his dream with the blood of your potential future dripping from his fingers.

imagine all of that and then imagine still having a (seemingly) great relationship with said brother. arthur is a stronger soul than me because i would have been crushed under the weight of the complex that i’d have developed ! i love that all three leclerc brothers seems so tightly knit together in spite of the sacrifices they’ve all had to make. arthur gave up so much to allow charles the chance at success, and it could have easily soured their relation but it doesn’t seem like it has and i love that for them <3

miss americana & the heartbreak prince

—04. every finger, every sigh
—word count: 6.8k
—warnings:obvious sexual innuendos, implications, and mentions of sex. no smut. club activities, alcohol consumption.
love, mackie… ok here’s how this is going to work. if you don’t read smut please feel safe to enjoy this chapter. if you do read smut, there is a link in the chapter to the nsfw cut. word count & warnings for that will be at the top of that post. I hope this works out for the majority of u guys… I want everyone to feel comfortable reading.

Chris peeks her head out around the sliding door into the bedroom, finds him sitting on the couch ready to go, scrolling through his phone and nodding along to the Carrie Underwood playlist playing from Chris’ phone in the bathroom. They’d had an impromptu dance party half an hour earlier to Cowboy Cassanova–hairbrush microphones and all–while Chris was doing her makeup. Charles butchered the chorus and stumbled to keep up with the verses, but he brought energy, and that’s all that matters. “Close your eyes!” She calls out to him. 

Keep reading

now come on 😭 mack 😭😭😭 this called me single in fifteen different ways, THE PAIN. oh how i loved it. gorgeous gorgeous chapter (as always).

1. chris will always be one of my all time fave ofcs, let me just say that first

2. “she knows that when he inevitably does step back, she’ll be chilled by the absence of his warmth.” i’m not crying i’m not crying i’m not-

3. “all this talk about her outfit, but she’s just his accessory.” WHAT THIS IS SUCH A GREAT LINE. and so true. anyone next to charles is just his accessory, sorry ppl. + “he looks annoyingly gorgeous, per usual, and entirely too kissable.” yep he does. all the time.

4. “her lipstick is smudged. she wonders where on charles she lost it.” EXCUSE ME. THESE TWO SENTENCES. could’ve given me a warning that i’ll be throwing my phone across the room again.

5. charles being confident in his attractiveness, but still wondering how he got someone like chris 😭 and how he has to actively think to understand her when she’s tipsy, that’s SO CHARLES HONESTLY. and the line “she’s the shit you make up in your head, and she’s standing here in front of him because she wants him.” AAHHHHH.

6. the whole chess & books/reading scene !!!!! just… so perfect! first of all i love pascale and i love arthur and i love their interactions with chris omg. and i love the cute family banter with the quips and all and how chris helps arthur win against charles lmao and it’s just UGH SO GOOD.

7. PASCALE AND CHARLES TALKING ABOUT CHRIS IN FRENCH. everything about that scene. the language, the things being said, the people saying them, EVERYTHING. i honestly had to wipe my eyes bc they got so blurry i couldn’t continue to read

8. charles translating the menu before realising there’s a translation already a few pages down 😭 i’m crying this is amazing, i giggled out loud at this, bc it’s just so relatable honestly

9. “ "food is here,” he says, and she watches the last of her conditioner spin away into the drain.“ OKAY BUT THIS!!! THIS!!!!! again, the details. honestly i’m just such a sucker for these, you probably know it by now bc i point them out every time BUT they just make me so happy you don’t even know 😭

10. the dinner scene. again, everything about it. tiny details, the conversations, charles just being written so charles-like, also charles not being able to pronounce gordie, then losing to chris in the argument less than 10 min in. i just LOVE this scene.

11. chris playing the piano and thinking that it sounds more beautiful bc it’s an expensive, high quality one, not bc she’s playing that good. GIRL YOU’RE PROBABLY SO GOOD THOUGH. but i know the feeling

12. charles having her play the piece he made up AND it not being him who wrote it down lmao (but honestly, how can someone play by ear??? how??)

13. when charles almost thought the word boyfriend but stopped himself i literally told him (well, my phone, but you know what i mean) "SAY IT CHARLES SAY IT” i was cheering on him so much to just do it. AND HE DID IT. i was the happiest, giggly-squealy girl.

14. also, we gotta mention the smut cut. we have to. DAMN. why did i read it on the train tho i have no idea. but omg omg omg omg.

mackie you amaze me every time. every single time. i’m speechless by your talent, you literal deity.

miss americana & the heartbreak prince

—03. i think i fell in love today
—word count: 7.5k
—warnings: despicable tooth rotting clawing my eyes out eating the stuffing in my pillows fluff. truly its horrendous. lets talk about it.
—love, mackie… i’m sleeping hopefully. right now I am hammocking. the ice cream truck just drove past. I love June.

After Paris, Chris was a bit apprehensive when it came to her ability to navigate the airport in Abu Dhabi with any sort of efficiency. Especially not now, where she needs to go through customs and register for a visitor’s visa and find her luggage and get her money exchanged. Pleasantly, though, she’s surprised at the ease she works through her notes app checklist. It’s within the hour that she’s climbing into the backseat of a taxi and heading to the hotel. 

Keep reading

i know you said tooth rotting fluff at the warnings but either i’m stupid and don’t take things seriously (very possible) or i like to pretend fluff doesn’t affect me bc i kept on reading, not prepared at all for what’s coming. the squealing, the throwing my phone across my room (literally), the tear filled eyes, the biting my cheeks so hard they started bleeding bc i didn’t want to actually scream. this was the fluffiest fluff i have ever read, and the best of them all. OMG i loved every second of reading this no matter the pain it caused me knowing it’s not me and will never be me.

1. “it hits her like a ton of bricks, her anxiety skyrocketing as the elevator ascends, her stomach left behind on the ground level.” why do i love this line SO MUCH, it’s so good even if it’s just a simple sentence

2. charles wanting to follow her back on insta but he can’t IT’S SUCH A COOL TINY DETAIL OMG i love the tiny details you always put in your writing. things that are not so important plotwise but add that extra perfection to the story and make it just that tad bit more real in a way. thank you.

3. when charles said “hello, christyn” i swear i read it in his voice. i could hear his voice say that in my head and it was so weird but also the sentences you give him always make so much sense to who he is in my eyes, like i can totally imagine him saying the words you give him and in the way he says them. phenomenal writing!!

4. “that’s why it came out in french” and “i said i want to kiss you” I’M SCREAMING

5. talking about tiny details, when charles leans against her palms just before their first kiss… THAT. THAT RIGHT THERE. honestly i just ADORE your writing skills.

6. “…and her voice sounds like smiles look.” okay but who gave you the right to be so poetic now for real, mack 😭 this is a line i would circle a few times with a pen and add exclamation marks and little hand drawn hearts if it was a book i was annotating.

7. THEIR FIRST KISS. that whole scene really. the way charles thinks about how knowing this waits for him on the other side makes every flight and annoyance of flying worth it. <33 + “christ elliot. you are something.” AHHH

8. that paragraph which is about arthur not being so good in english and charles correcting him, but chris not daring to, YOU’RE SO REAL FOR THAT ILY

9. chris not noticing charles is just joking when he mentions the size of luggage she came with AND then charles kissing away the pout on her face AND her saying “i like when you do that” AND him thinking “good. get used to it.” this was the part when i threw my phone across the room.

10. chris holding a finger up to stop charles when she’s reading and hurriedly finishing the page. SO RELATABLE, SO REAL, SO PERFECT. (and charles just laughing and having a stupid smile on his face as he continues watching her AWHHH)

11. when charles doesn’t remember the word for heirloom. AGAIN, TINY DETAIL, SO IMPORTANT TO MAKE IT MORE REAL. how are you so talented mack??

12. “too busy kissing the girl” EXCUSE ME MR. LECLERC

anyway. this chapter made me squeal many times like i’m eleven or something and having a first crush or whatever. it’s been a long time since i felt this way (and a long time since i felt so single and lonely lmao) so thank you mack from the bottom of my heart. it’s a pleasure to be living in the same timeline as you do. <33

okay so here are a few fun facts about The Devil In Disguise by the one and only Q ( @ricc3rodeo ) bc i have nothing better to do and i love tdid so much that i had to do something with it.

• it has 209 thousand (!!!!) words
• if it would be a book, it would have 415 pages

just for comparison: the longest harry potter book, order of the phoenix has 257 thousand words. and literally all 6 other hp books have less words than tdid has. !!!!!

if these facts don’t make you even more amazed and feel even more respect towards Q, idk what does. this is INSANE. and to think fanfic is free and “just a hobby”. like come on!!!

Q, this is actually crazy. thank you a million times and more. <33
