Just discovered the song Your Stupid Face by Karen Mackay and it is soooooo incredibly Piarles coded oh my days (especially the song from Charles’ point of view) and now I’m obsessed. Basically my thinking atm is a meet ugly where non racer Charles is just pissed off at F1 racer Pierre for some reason (I’m not creative enough to think of the reason 😅 Pierre’s rude or overly cocky when Charles has had a bad day and it tips him over the edge?) but he’s in also in denial about the fact that he finds Pierre really quite attractive (‘I hate your stupid face’) but EVENTUALLY he gives in and excepts he ‘loves (his) stupid face’. Of course Pierre’s liked this cute guy that got mad at him and looked even cuter the whole time and just liked to antagonise and tease him. And I know you said you didn’t want angst but I promise it’s only a little! Maybe Pierre has to go back to racing and Charles feels he messed up and they got in an argument and didn’t talk before Pierre left and Charles thinks P will just forget about him (‘the world denied me one last kiss’). Obvs Pierre doesn’t because he’s just as smitten as Charles and he comes back and that whole conversation type verse of the song happens (dialogue just based on what is said :)) and yayy Charles realises that his feelings are reciprocated and not he’s not stupid for falling for a famous guy :) This got very long but the thought wormed it’s way into my brain and I had to share it, I hope you have a nice weekend!

oh my gosh!! 😍 well first of all, thank you SO much for sharing the brainworms, anon - this made me grin so much! and secondly: what a cute song, omg?? this is not my usual style of music at all, but i gave it a go and it's so quirky and cute and fun. i surprised myself by loving it 😂😍

and yes! i could definitely see it as piarles coded - the situation you described, DEFINITELY, or maybe even some sort of a high school au? jock pierre and music kid charles, or something of the like... genuinely, it would just be the most adorable little rom-com.

these lines especially struck me as VERY pierre-and-charles, lmao:

cute cute cute!! 🤣😍 thanks so much for sharing, dear anon, this made me smile SO much this fine tuesday morning <3333
