Im kind of playing the reverse uno card on you here lmao but i feel like being Original isnt worth missing out on the content, so PLEASE "hand(s)" and "smile(s)" for the wip game 🙏 (your writing is heartbreaking when you aim for angsty and adorable when you aim for comfy and i just go 🥺🥺🥺 every damn time ty you are a gem)

receiving this ask gave me the biggest hearteyes ! you know i’m the biggest fan of your writing so this is me, tossing the love right back at you.

anyway, here we go !

HAND(S)

Perhaps he had asked too much, tried to build the tower of Babel with his own callused hands, believing faith not to be cruel. Believing that they could stand the test of time and fleeting youth.

but also this one - from the same fic (because it’s got me really emotional, okay)

Pierre gets promoted for the following season, and Esteban is left permanently in the dust. A driver without a seat is nothing more than a ghost, a reminder of what once was. He is well aware that he does not come with the funds, does not have a father who spills money like prayers around the paddock. His own father puts his hand on his shoulder, while his mother makes his favourite dish on the evening his final chance of a seat falls through. In the absence of a followed dream, he truly is rich.

SMILE(S)

There’s a picture still kept behind glass at his parent’s place, near the back of a collection which feels like a shrine. Two kids clad in red, an arm around Pierre’s shoulder, bucktooth smile and not a care in the world. Neither one of them knew how bitter it would all become back in the endless vastness of childhood. Mother keeps it there, undisturbed, as if she still cradles some hope within her chest.

Send me a word, if it’s in my wip document I’ll answer your ask with the sentence that it appears in

#bigbluelemon #actually all of these are from the same fic . . . i am surprised and shooketh #also hands and smiles . . . my most beloveds !
