Summary:

the condominium community - 2:36pm

Oscar and Logan have been added to the chat

George
Hello, welcome to a group chat we have for the Formula apartment building! There are only 18 (20 now) of us so we like to keep in contact about the building maintenance and other neighbourly orders of business. I’m George, and I liaise with the building manager on behalf of all of us when there is a building specific issue rather than an apartment issue. Welcome to the building!

Lando

Alex

or, the ridiculous chat fic where the f1 grid all live in the same apartment building

George
Ignore them. I heard from Charles that your names are Logan and Oscar?

Logan
Wow hi! Yeah I’m Logan, I had no idea that people made apartment building group chats over here!

Alex
they don’t, George just has the soul of a PTA mum in him

Lance
hi!

Lewis
Welcome to the building!

Max

Logan
Oh, no I’m actually from the states, and Oscar is Australian

Daniel

Daniel

Carlos
Wow I cannot believe we have more of us, we must be the most diverse apartment complex in England

Alex
that’s what I said!

Carlos
You are English

Alex
hey! and Thai!

George
I would like it if we didn’t overwhelm our new residents with pointless chatter. I just wanted to welcome them in and let them know that they can reach out if they need help with anything.

Lando
y do u take this so seriously skfkgsk

Logan
Thanks George!

 

Oscar, Logan - 2:41pm

Oscar
okay is it just me or is the group chat a bit weird

Logan
I think it’s nice!

It’s reassuring knowing there are people that can help if we have problems

Hang on why are you messaging me from your room instead of coming to talk to me

Oscar
i made the mistake of lying down on my mattress

too lazy to get back up

do you think they expect us to bake for them

Logan
What are you talking about?

Oscar
yknow

isn’t that what people do in the movies?

bake things for their neighbours?

Logan
I need to socialise you more…

Oscar
i am perfectly socialised fuck you

 

the awesome foursome - 9:48pm

Alex
Charlie i need you

Lando
gay

Alex
ignoring you

@charles

Charles
Hello Alex

Alex
brilliant, george won’t tell me if lando’s new neighbours are hot

Lando
has george seen thm?

Alex
silly question, you know george went and introduced himself the second he got home

Lando
u rite

Alex
so, charles?

George
It just seems inappropriate to talk about this.

Alex
ugh george

you can’t have a monopoly on being horny for the other people that live in this building

George
That is not-

I don’t know what you’re referring to.

Give your thoughts then Charles.

Lando
lmfao got him

Charles
Okay

Oscar is cute, Logan looks American

Alex
.

is that it?

Lando
ajfkalglh go girl give us nothing

Charles
I don’t know what else to say!

George
I have to do everything myself around here.

Oscar has a kind of boy-next-door charm. Some freckles, swoopy hair, big brown eyes.

Logan is very all-American, Charles is right. Blond hair, blue eyes, definitely handsome, but surprisingly soft spoken.

Alex
i cannot believe i spent half an hour trying to get this information out of you and you cave simply because charles didn’t do an adequate job

your mind fascinates me

George
The feeling isn’t mutual darling.

Lando
LFLSKGDBFSN

what the hell does swoopy hair even mean

George
I really can’t explain it any other way.

They’re your neighbours, I’m sure you’ll see them eventually

Lando
nah im actually planning to never leave my flat again

i dont want to be perceeved

Alex
is it bad that I cannot tell if you’re joking or not

Charles
Non, I also cannot tell

Lando would be a hermit

Lando
hello?

uncalled for

George
I see it.

Lando
?????

fuk u all im muting the chat

Alex
HAH you would never

you wouldn’t want to miss out on any potential gossip

Lando
.

yeah tru tbh

🤪

Alex
cringe.

Notes:

i love chat fics with all my heart and have never been brave enough to write one. so here i am, being brave! i don't have a strong plan for where this goes, only vague ideas. while i will try and update as often as i can, i'm not going to promise a specific schedule. i do already have a few chapters written though.
i hope this is enjoyable for other people! i have been having a lot of fun writing it!
