Summary
Lando Norris used to be the guy you lost yourself to at 3 a.m. in a club: DJ, producer, professional burnout in progress. Then the crash, the rehab, the very nearly not-making-it.
Now he lives above a wildlife hospital on the Cornish coast, making coffee for exhausted vets and writing quiet, bird-soaked tracks no one’s supposed to hear. It’s small, and disciplined, and safe. Mostly.
Oscar Piastri is the vet who signed off on admitting him as “not technically avian” and never quite recovered from it. He likes order, risk assessments, and patients who can’t sneak off to sit on sea walls and flirt with catastrophic decisions. Unfortunately, he also likes Lando.
When a BBC documentary and live show — Tidal Line Live: Sea & Sanctuary — offers Lando a way back onto a stage, everyone has an opinion. Trustees see headlines. Old managers smell money. Lando feels the old hunger in his bones. Oscar feels sick.
This is a story about what comes after the crisis: about recovery as a practice, about found family in a small hospital full of broken birds, and about two people learning how to stay — with themselves, and with each other.

Summary
“First time at a surf competition?”
“Is it that obvious?”
“A little.”
“Because I look lost?” Lando said dryly.
“Because you’re watching instead of pretending.” Oscar shrugged. “Most guests pretend.”
Lando wasn’t sure whether to feel called out or flattered.
“You always analyze people like this?”
“I feel particularly inspired today.” -

Summary
“Don’t you think it’s a bit odd that ever since Superman showed up, I’ve lost count of the near-death experiences and the number of times I’ve been kidnapped?”
“You can’t blame Superman for that, mate,” Max cuts in. “Those things were happening to you long before he arrived.”
“Lando,” George adds dryly, “it might have more to do with the fact that you always run toward danger. That, and your attitude tends to piss people off.”
Metropolis has its first superhero, the Daily Planet has front-row seats, and Lando Norris has a brand new partner fresh from Smallville, the polite, focused, infuriatingly calm Oscar Piastri. Between chasing headlines, dodging LexCorp trouble, and maybe getting rescued once or twice, Lando can’t shake the feeling that his new colleague is hiding something.

Summary
“It’s probably not the best idea for us to do this,” Oscar says, looking away. “We’re living together, and the contract—”
“Fuck the contract,” Lando interrupts, exasperated. “We can add a clause to it or something, I dunno. It can be like those stupid rom-coms where they agree not to fall in love with each other.”
Or: Oscar Piastri is a lonely, closeted F1 driver who's one mistaken hook-up away from certain ruin. Lando is a down-on-his-luck photographer who's three days away from eviction. When Lando tries to mug Oscar in a desperate attempt to keep his housing, Oscar proposes a mutually beneficial arrangement: Lando lives with Oscar as his companion for one year. After that, they're free to go their separate ways. A rock-solid NDA and no hard feelings. What could go wrong?

Summary
Silverstone had screamed itself hoarse for him, had waved Union Jacks and neon flags bearing his logo until the grandstands looked like a living, breathing sea of his colors. The world loved him today — revered him with a ferocity he once thought could fill every hollow space inside him.
And it meant nothing.
Because every time he blinked, he saw it again — the angry flush creeping up Oscar's normally composed face during the national anthem. The mechanical, joyless way he'd raised his champagne bottle during celebrations, spraying it at no one in particular with all the enthusiasm of someone washing their car. The way his eyes, usually so warm when they found Lando's, had turned flat and distant, like someone had flipped a switch and turned off everything that made him Oscar.

Summary
This was the part where he was supposed to walk away. Shut it all down. Delete the alt account, torch the Twitter, chuck the phone in the minibar freezer, and go take another cold shower. Again. But instead, he accepted the request. Like a complete idiot. Like he didn’t have the impulse control of a wet napkin.
Christ. He was definitely thinking with his dick. There was absolutely no way this was going to end well.
OR The only thing faster than Oscar on track is the speed at which he gets folded in half once Lando finds out his secret.

Summary
It’s the profound tragedy of Lando’s life, he thinks, to realise he’s in love with his teammate – just as Oscar Piastri makes a habit of standing one step higher on the podium, forcing Lando to crane his neck to look at him.
Oscar hates watching the light fade from Lando’s eyes with every victory he takes from him. He accepted the inconvenient truth long ago: he loves Lando. But he loves winning more.

Summary
Oscar had never really put all that much thought into his status as a beta.
As a beta, his secondary sex didn't put anywhere near as much of an effect on his every day life in the way that being an alpha or omega would. He didn't experience heats or ruts, and well… his ability to scent was baseline. His own scent was mild and even, much less prone to souring. In turn, he wasn't as affected by the scents of others either. It meant he had a pretty easy time on the track, all things considered.
*
Or the fic where Oscar shifts from beta to omega and has to deal with the fallout.

Summary
Lando Norris, internationally famous rockstar, has three main priorities: drugs, avoiding eye contact, and pretending emotions don't exist.
To most, he's just flippant; a hot, young thing with messy habits. So what if he washes down breakfast with a shot of vodka? He's a rockstar, it practically comes with the territory of being too young and too famous.
But the reality of it is a lot more destructive.
Enter Oscar Piastri. Engineering student. Polite and boring to a fault. Really, he's nothing interesting.
Except, after one too many nights taken too far, Lando's manager hires Oscar as his chaperone.
Lando hates him immediately.
As the band's tour drags on, as the looming threat of FIA's album deadline becomes ever the more pressing, as Oscar gets dragged deeper into a strange world of glitz and grime, Lando begins to think that things might finally turn out fine.
Except things are never, ever fine with him.

Summary
“You’re not being very sympathetic,” Lando replies. “My roommate is a serial killer!”
Charles says, unhelpfully, “five months ago you walked into his apartment with no identification, no luggage, and the request for him not to look your name up on the internet, and he let you live with him without even asking if you served in the war. And we are surprised he is a lunatic?”
Or: Oscar kills people. Lando is legally dead. Someone wants to restart the war.

Summary
Oscar’s going to throw up.
He’s heard stories about mermaids, how they lurk in the dark blue water, calling out to sailors and luring them to their watery graves. He’s heard how they sit on large rocks in shell bikinis and drink coconut water with a paper umbrella, as well. He’s never believed what science couldn’t back up, what he couldn’t see himself or what he couldn’t read about in books. The stories about mermaids were just that, stories.
And now one has its claws to his jugular. Fantastic.
Or, Max is a mermaid, Oscar is a sailor. You can fill in the rest.

Summary
When it's time to race in Barcelona, Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris are dominating the 2025 season, with no real rivals in sight.
Hence, the inevitable truth: even if they share the same colors, only one of them will be crowned world champion. The other, no matter how brilliant, will be remembered as champion of the defeated.
Everything becomes even more complicated when a secret torn from one of them comes to light, one that will shake both their personal and professional lives. Because the two McLaren drivers, whether they like it or not, are bound together by an invisible thread.
This is the story of how, while fighting against each other for the title, they started to fight for each other too.- Language:

Summary
Armand feeds him from the wrist and Daniel is unmade, pulled like the end of a slipknot until he once more is a thing unformed. A blank slate, tabula rasa, wiped clean. A sand castle at high tide. A snake eating its own tail.
Everything eats itself in the end, comes back to where it started, and Daniel is no different. His blood is Armand’s blood is his blood, and when he gulps down mouthful after mouthful, Armand’s hand feverishly massaging his throat to aid the weak, dying muscles in forcing it down, it is himself he is drinking from.
He is at the bottom of it all. He is at the place from before the bottom even existed, the place that always was. He is woven into nothing and back again. He is woven into nothing and it is woven into him. He is woven, and unwoven, and hungry, and woven, and starving, and woven.
Starving, starving, starving. Like the ringing of an alarm clock. Eat, you stupid motherfucker. Feed.
He thought he knew before, when he was just a dumb addict. What it means to be hungry.
He had no fucking idea.

Armand, Daniel, and a lesson in taking the long way home.

Summary
Who of us had not loved something or somebody? How much did these feelings, these loves, these worships, have to do with pure reason? Little or nothing, we saw at last. Were not these things the tissue out of which our lives were constructed? Did not these feelings, after all, determine the course of our existence? It was impossible to say we had no capacity for faith, or love, or worship. In one form or another we had been living by faith and little else.
from The Big Book by William G. Wilson and Robert H. Smith, Chapter 4: We Agnostics

Summary
Survival is an artform.
Armand has been an unwilling student, an eager acolyte, a master of the craft.The things he feels can be broken down into component parts. Can be simplified into anatomic essentials, the series of processes required to make him something that functionally resembles the likeness of man. Sensation without thought. Water-damp brushstrokes dragging across a canvas with no paint. No color. No light.
Leaving Dubai was an act of necessity, arriving anywhere else an act of apathy.
In which Daniel attempts to make sense of the past and Armand attempts to do whatever the opposite of that is.
