George:

Good news everyone!

Charles:

what’s going on?

George:

Someone new is joining our year! They will move in to their dorm today. I will add them later so please, don’t scare them away ☺️ (I’m looking at you Lando).

Notes:

Hi! I've decided to try a group chat fic since I can't write normal ones for shit. (I'm currently working on one and it's not going well)(my friend can confirm). It probably won’t be updated regularly since I have school but I’ll try. I haven't been a f1 fan for long, so if something isn't accurate, please let me know! <3

Max:

Replying to George:

George:

All i know for now is that they’re both 21, one is American, and the other one is Australian.

 

Pierre:

Daniel will now claim the aussie as the new fav student :(

betrayal

 

Lewis:

Replying to George:

Someone new is joining our year! They will move in to their dorm today. I will add them later…

Do you know their dorm number?

 

George:

I think they’ll be in dorm 17, next to Lando.

 

Lando:

THEYLL BE MY NEIBORS? DOSE THAT MEAN I WILL HAVE TO TURN OF MY MUSIC

 

Max:

finally someone will be able to shut up Lando at night. Srsly, who plays music on their speakers at 2AM?

 

Lando:

im just blesing yall with my music taste

 

Alex:

do they have any pets? If so, please tell me bc we need more pets here

 

George:

I’m not sure, but I don’t think they have one. You’ll have to find out yourself when you go introduce yourself. 😙

 

Pierre:

Alex, why are you texting George, when you literally live together. Couldn’t you just get out from your room and ask?

 

Alex:

I’m at work rn your information. Some of us actually work around here

 

Pierre:

Rude? 🤨

 

George:

Ok, moving on! They just texted me. They are in the building. Please let them at least unpack before you go jump them.

 

Charles:

Will you add them to the gc?

 

George:

I will. I’m going downstairs right now to welcome them.

 

User George added +44…, +44… to the group chat.

 

George:

Hi guys! Welcome to the building (and the group chat). I’m George, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask them :).

 

Oscar:

Hey! We will probably have a lot of questions, so thank you for helping :)

 

Logan:

Thanks! We should probably introduce ourselves. My name is Logan Sargeant, I’m from Florida, I’m 21 and I am studying photography.

 

Alex:

That’s really cool! Do you do any photo shoots? I’m working part-time at a vet clinic and we could use some photos of our pets

 

Logan:

Sure! You can text me the info and I’ll come by when I’ll have the time ☺️

 

Oscar:

Replying to Logan:

Thanks! We should probably introduce ourselves. My name is Logan Sargeant, …

My name is Oscar Piastri, I’m from Melbourne, Australia, I’m also 21 and at the moment I’m studying math, physics and computer science.

 

Lando:

quik question do you mind loud music or screaming at night

 

Oscar:

Uhh I don’t, as long as it’s not on a school night? Also, should i be concerned with the screaming?

 

Carlos:

Don’t worry, he sometimes gets too excited when streaming

 

Logan:

Oh! What do you stream?

 

Lando:

nothing rly jus some racing or other games. Sometimes i can convence Max to play with me. do any of you also play?

 

Logan:

I don’t really like gaming. Oscar used to, but he doesn’t have the time anymore.

 

Lando:

:(

Charles:

Did anyone else hear a scream? @everyone

 

George:

Why do I smell smoke??? What happened?

 

Yuki:

So basically, me and Pierre were kinda hungry, and we decided to let Pierre cook..

I would advise getting out of the building before someone gets burned 😊

 

Max:

omfg it’s literally raining outside and we’re supposed to wait for the fire department?

fuck this I’m going back too sleep

 

Charles:

@Max please tell me you’re joking

 

Carlos:

I don’t think he is

I’m here and he just laid back down

dw I’m dragging him outside before he dies

 

Oscar:

has anyone seen Lando go out? He isn’t outside

 

Alex:

i thought you would see him since you live on the same floor

 

Logan:

we didn’t see him

we thought he left before us

there’s no way he didn’t hear the alarm

 

Carlos:

his phone is off

istg I’m going to kill him

 

Oscar:

I’ll go check on him

 

Charles:

ok but be careful pls

Oscar:

Update

Lando somehow slept through the alarm

I almost had to break his door to wake him up

Carlos:

did you at least try to talk to him?

Lando:

OF COURSE NOT

I WOULDNT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY

omg i must have looked like an idiot

im never leaving my room again

Carlos:

don’t worry

I’m sure he doesn’t think that way

 

Charles

(September 1st, 2025 - 11:40 AM)

Carlos:

Lando is an idiot.

Charles:

tell me something I don’t know

Carlos:

Lando didn’t even talk to Oscar

I WASTED HALF OF MY CHOCOLATE STASH ON DANIEL

SO HE WOULD PUT THEM TOGETHER

Charles:

he preferred to sit in silence for half of his classes

rather than just talk to him

man idk what to tell you but he might be a lost cause

Carlos:

We need to get them to talk to eachother

God I feel like a mother organizing a playdate

Oscar:

You’re not leaving me here alone with them.

Why?

 

Carlos:

No reason :)

Charles

(September 1st, 2025 - 6:31 PM)

Carlos:

Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

Charles:

We somehow need to put Lando and Oscar in the same room

Carlos:

Light work.

George:

All the other rooms are taken.

Either way, Lewis won’t let Lando near another one.

 

Alex:

Oscar:

Oscar:

Carlos:
