Summary
Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc have been rivals since their teens, their bond forged on the racetrack and tempered by competition. Now, with Charles challenging Max’s championship reign, their rivalry has become the centre of the Formula 1 world. But as Max realises his feelings for Charles go beyond rivalry, he faces a new challenge—one that has nothing to do with the podium and everything to do with the omega who defies every expectation.

Summary
The large display in the area for fans shows a joyful Max, who has won yet again, together with an equally delighted Kelly. She embraces him and kisses through the safety glass. Someone nearby applauds. The camera zooms in, allowing everyone to witness the romantic scene closely. Holding onto the mesh, Charles tightens his grip on the thin wires, leaving noticeable horizontal indentations. He wants to say something hurtful but spotted fans recording him from behind. Instead, he keeps his gaze on the large screen.
Someone whispers "Wow, he's handsome" and Charles can barely stop himself from turning to the fans and shouting that their favorite Dutchman also holds other men by the waist and pulls them to him in the same way to fuck in a faceless hotel room where they have come in turns, fifteen minutes apart, so that no one sees.
Or,
a story where Charles reflects a lot, learns to appreciate himself and loves Max thoughtlessly.Series

Summary
For as long as Merlin can remember, there has been another voice in his head. Not that kind of voice that makes him crazy - he's not - but as if there is another person sharing his body. It might seems odd, but Merlin is use to it, so it's fine. He likes his voice anyways. After all, what kid wouldn't like having a best friend living in their head? It's only as time moves on that they learn that things aren't always as simple as they seem.
[Or where in people know that Merlin's magic is different. But no one seems to know just how different. It tends to make things... interesting.] -

Summary
Through the one way glass, Harry watches as the suspect fidgets, drumming his fingers on top of the table briefly before picking at the skin on his left thumb. A nervous habit, one that makes him prone to shedding DNA all over the place. With any luck forensics will come back with a strong match.
“His lawyer or a lawyer?” Harry clarifies.
“His lawyer,” Marianne tells him. “Seems like Mr. Tomlinson has spent the better part of the last decade running around trying to convince people he's a psychic. Got enough brains to have an attorney on speed dial, seems like.”

Summary
"The ladies couldn't keep their hands off you".
"Oh, were you watching?”, Charles asks, allowing himself a little mischievous smile as they move across the floor, perfectly in time with the music. “Are you jealous?".
"Not at all", Carlos replies, punctuating his words with a spin. The hand at Charles' waist pulls him in the tiniest bit. "I know whose bed you've been sleeping in the past few nights, and it wasn't theirs".
---
Royalty/Magic alternate universe where both Charles and Carlos are princes who met when they were little. Seventeen years later, they're reunited when Charles goes to Carlos' kingdom for a political visit. Angst and romance ensue.

Summary
A hand grasped his arm, sending a brief thrill down Merlin's nerves as he was forced around to face the person behind him. Armour gleamed in the firelight: supple chainmail glinted, and the solid iron of a pauldron curved lovingly over one broad shoulder. The length of a sword blade separated them. The point hovered, steady and sure, over Merlin's heart, braced to run him through, but he did not care about any of that. He was too busy drinking in the sight of the man before him.
He could never forget him, no matter how many centuries had passed.
'Arthur?'
When Merlin ultimately fails in his destiny, the fading remnants of magic that linger in the modern world fling him not just back in time, but sideways as well. He ends up in a Camelot where all his friends are alive, well and aware of his magic.
He ends up in a Camelot where his alternate self died almost a year ago.
Can he, Arthur and their friends still forge the golden age he was once promised, or will grief and suspicion tear them apart?

Summary
The entire night, Oscar can tell–Max has been practically eye-fucking Charles. It’s that dress, for sure, but also–the fact that she’s been absolutely clueless about the flirting and doesn’t seem to notice the effect she’s having on him.
Oscar decides to spice things up, add a little more pepper to this meal. It’s feeling stale. So, he says: “You like Charles.”
Max chokes on his pasta, coughs for about 14 seconds, before sloshing some water in his mouth and swallowing it.
“Of course not.”
“Mate, it’s pretty obvious. You’ve practically been eye-fucking her the whole night.” Oscar replies.
“I have not!”
Both Lando and Oscar stare at him blankly until he caves just a few seconds later.
“Fine. I like Charles.”

Summary
Charles has long since accepted the yearning in his heart for more, more, more. He has learnt to pull his hand back quickly enough when he accidentally reaches out for one more kiss, one more hug, one more laugh, one more joke, one more debrief, one more secret meeting in a hotel in a foreign country, one more, one more, one more. Always one more.
He has been screaming for ages, it's a wonder his voice still works.
or: Charles struggles with the pressure of being Ferrari's golden boy, Max is perceptive yet doesn't see what's right in front of him, and Carlos thinks his friends are idiots who just need to talk.

Summary
“Wait,” Lando said, voice high pitched, “you guys really think Max and Charles are into each other? For real?”
“All the evidence points to that,” replied Alex, sighing, all analytical and a tad regretful, as if it was a shameful fact, unavoidable.
“And you think they might be already sleeping together?”
“No, not yet,” Daniel admitted, “they are just friends for now, and Charles is simply clingy with Max, who is a big softie with Charlie, God knows why… But… I think they want to.”
or: 5 times Max and Charles acted weirdly couple-y (+ one time they noticed)

Summary
“I’m not so drunk that I don’t know what I’m asking you,” Max said.
Charles swallowed the lump in his throat. “Me either.”
“So, is that a yes?”
“Are you sure about this?” Charles asked instead, laughing unbelievably and shaking his head. “This is not something we do, mate.”
“It could be something we do,” Max said, grinning at him. His fingers flexed on Charles’ hip, and it did something weird to Charles’ brain. When he looked back on this moment later, he would blame Max’s big hand on his hip for what he did next.
Because for some reason... Charles kissed him.
He wasn’t sure why.
OR: the self-indulgent story of how Charles and Max fell in love over winter break 2022, in a classic Enemies to Friends With Benefits to Lovers fic that nobody asked for.

Summary
Tony Stark has some suspicions that one of his employees in R&D is sneaking tech to his competitors. He definitely doesn’t like Deadpool, but the regenerating degenerate is reliable - so long as the price is right.
Wade Wilson has been trying to emulate Spider-Man and get out of the merc business for a few months now, and happily takes Stark up on his offer. He even gets to brag to his role model/crush about how he’s been trailing his mark, a nerdy college student named Peter Parker.
