I think we're starting to dilute the meaning of "terminally online". Like, no, it's not terminally online to have eccentric opinions about a popular TV show – people like that existed before "online" was a thing. Unless we're talking at least an "it's homophobic for gay furries to have rat fursonas because they're depicting gay people as vermin", the onlineness falls well short of terminal.
being obsessed w a piece of media is so scary. what if my mutuals see how insane i go about it and think oh i gotta check out what this is about and then think it sucks and kill me with rocks. what if they hate my favorite characters
Lightning wakes up late during an international racing trip. This probably wouldn’t be the most uncommon thing since he seems like a VERY heavy sleeper (see: entire first movie’s plot happened because he managed to sleep roll out of his trailer) and it causes chaos as usual.
That day isn’t a race day, but it is an important interview/PR photo shoot/various other important not racing things day. He zips around the hotel/rental place they are staying at trying to get ready for the day. Meanwhile, Doc sits in the eye of the storm, chill as usual, seemingly just enjoying his coffee and letting Lightning make a mess of the place.
Later in the day, during a quiet moment while the photographers change the set, Lightning complains about the fact he’s hungry but forgot to grab a lunch. He and the other racers taking part in the photoshoot try to figure where he can grab a quick bite the eat with the scarce time he has but draw blanks.
Doc then appears out of nowhere and hands Lightning a packed lunch in one of those classic brown paper bags. He knew he Lightning would forget to pack something in the morning rush and didn’t want him to go hungry.
Lightning is then (lovingly) teased by everyone else for the next couple months because he’s so predictable that his dad crew chief knew to pack him a lunch
the walkman hc is my favourite (+ the little add ons like him falling asleep with the headphones on and everything) and i can just imagine him figuring out how to make songs play on repeat and just. falling asleep to Friends In Low Places by Garth Brooks playing over and over again. for literally no reason. he LOVES that song
sprawled out on his bed, his bedroom door cracked open just a tiny bit, and the volume is LOUD. the house is QUIET. like insanely quiet. when doc gets up in the morning he just hears the very faint sound of garth brooks drifting down the hallway and hes like. dear god 😭
Lightning procrastinated a long time before going through Doc's belongings after he passed. Then when he finally does he comes across old photos and any number of keep sakes and feels like he's discovering a completely different person.
It fascinates him and crushes him at the same time.
