they literally fight like an old married couple im crying, arvidās face when he realized liam was getting ragebaited pure joy that he got to call him out on it
Yellow flag, Alex dropping positions, broadcast showing only the Mercs, commentators saying Oscar hit Alex but we get not a single glimpse of how bad it is or how it happened, then they show it in this tiny window in the upper left corner and instead of showing what happened to Alex, we see Oscar pitting and then we're back with the Mercs
only 40 LAPS LATER during a VSC we finally get to see what actually happened on full screen
but when George has to stop, we see him angrily shaking his head for MINUTES
I am very disappointed in what the f1 broadcast has become
dont toy with my emotions like that jesus when their hair strands touched i was like š the perks of being at the same height. (the 1 cm deficit doesnt count)
I just love your writing so much, so I would like to request some more Lisack/Lawblad please
I would love to see some establishes Lisack where Liam discovered that he is poly because he started developing feelings for Arvid as well and he feels super guilty about it, so Lisack have some good deep talk
thank youuš«¶š¼
Hello! So I went lowk wild on this one (almost 1800 words..) because I really like the concept. I'm pretty proud of it. Arvid is lowkey being a bit of a little devil but it's all okay in the end. So enjoy!!! And plz send me more asks <3

Liam wanted to be a good boyfriend, and he thinks he is most of the time. He takes Isack out to dinner, he lays in the hotel with him after a bad race, and he tries to respond to almost every text. He's there for every crash, every point, every argument with the team and so much more. One might think he was jealous, that he was as upset that Isack earned a spot that Liam himself was fighting for. Theyād be wrong. Liam is nothing but proud of his boyfriend.
It sucked that they were separated more often now. Liam has to hang around Arvid. Who is loud and bright and amazingly funny. Liamās started to really like Arvid. The younger man is openly affectionate. Always finding ways to hug and touch Liam. Itās nice, VCARB is nice. As much as he gripes about the social media team and all that they truly are a good family.
Just one that Isack isnāt a part of anymore, and Liam is starting to think Isack doesnāt like it. He and Arvid are always sharing unpleasant staredowns and clipped comments that fly straight over Liam's head. Isack always says things are fine, just an annoying younger boy. Weird, but thatās fine. Liamās not gonna lose his mind if the two men he spends the most time with donāt get along. Heās a good boyfriend, and heās not going to mess things up.
Except he thinks he might be.Ā
Theyāre hanging around in Liamās apartment right now, him and Isack. The Frenchman currently sprawled across Liamās legs. Theyāre not really hanging out as much as enjoying each other's space. The few hours they get together that arenāt before and after races are usually when theyāre both sick of the world. So theyāll just lay together for a bit some days. A movie is playing in french on the TV, Isack fully invested. Liam is scrolling his phone. Absorbed in random instagram nonsense. All in all, theyāre looking at a lovely evening.Ā
Itās the notification, accompanied by the smiling picture of Arvidās face, that pulls Liam out of the cozy little bubble. He clicks on it without thinking too much. Heās met with a selfie taken in the mirror, the British boy shining with that post-workout sweat. Arvid is waving at the camera, and has gracefully captioned the picture with the message: āWhatāre you doing?āĀ
Liam doesnāt know why it makes him blush, and he really doesnāt wanna think about it. He just texts back.
RacingBros (vry funny arvid.) 10:03 pm
Liam: Hanging w/ Isack. Youāre up late.
Arvid: Bored. Got some energy out. You having a fun time š
Liam: Get your mind out of the gutter Mate.
Arvid: Mb mb. Life is hella boring between races
Liam: Arenāt you an influencer or smth. Just film. Admin would love u.
Arvid: I meant boring without you. Holy airball
Liam hesitates at that. He looks down at Isack. His boyfriend looks back and just grins towards him. Itās just a casual conversation. Nothing more.Ā
Liam: Most teammates enjoy a break from each other.
Arvid: This is supposed to be the part where you say you miss me too
Liam: I miss you too.
Arvid: :D āØš
Liam: Go tf to bed.Ā
Arvid: But ur so much more interesting. Also Iām sweaty and gross so no
Liam: Iām literally with my boyfriend.
Arvid: So?
Liam puts the phone down after that because his heart is going way too fast. This isnāt right. This isnāt good boyfriend behavior. Heās being Awful. This is wrong.Ā
āLiam? You okay?ā Isack hums, and Liam just nods. He loves Isack. He does. Truly, he does. Nothing had ever made that waver. When Liam talks to anyone else- to Arvid- he never felt like he was losing his affection to Isack.Ā Ā
āDo you want a hug?ā Isack continues, and Liam nods again. Getting wrapped up in Isackās strong arms and feeling a thousand times better about it for a while. āIām here, if you want to talk.ā
Liam doesnāt even know where to start. So he just whispers āI love youā and snuggles in closer to him. Maybe, if he just stays close enough to Isack everything else will melt away.Ā
He tries to leave it there. He really does. He suppresses notifications from Arvid on his phone, but he still checks their messages every hour practically. He takes Isack out more, but he finds himself staring at Arvid in the paddock. Liamās not a religious man, but he feels like he should go confess his sins. Maybe that's all that could save him.
Isack doesnāt seem to notice Liamās turmoil, and if Arvid does he doesnāt say anything. Instead, Liam feels like the ball of a padel game. Being knocked between the two and neither of them realizing that heās being a vile asshole. Is he leading Isack on? Is Arvid leading him on? Is he reading too much into things? Itās all a mess, and itās most certainly his own fault.
Things boil over when heās hanging out with Arvid in the youngerās hotel before a race, sharing a meal and just trying to chill before the race. Except Arvid doesnāt let Liam have any peace.Ā
āYou know, itās fun how so many of us on the grid are like, queer. But other than you and Isack nobody's normal about it,ā Arvid ponders aloud, looking at Liam with too much intention.Ā
āWhat do you mean?ā Liam- rather stupidly- asks.Ā
Arvid just snorts. āI mean, youāve got whatever the hell happened with Nico and Lewis. Thereās the whole will they, wonāt they thing with Charles and Max. Donāt even get me started about how Pierre, Yuki, and Esteban are in the world's most dysfunctional polycule. Except I think they just say that any two of them are dating + a third. Changes on the week, I think they got fixed up now that Yuki isnāt competing.āĀ
Itās a wild onslaught of information. Liam likes to think heās up to date on grid relationship politics- he knew the Max thing- but this is more than he was aware of. āI thought Yuki and Pierre were dating?ā
āThree way street,ā Arvid shrugs. āI mean, what do I know? New guy on the block and all. Just what Iāve heard from Ollie and such.āĀ
āYeah, you prema boys are always messing around with things.ā Liam jokes forcefully, flicking a crumb on the table at Arvid in his bid to lighten the conversation for himself. āWhyāre you bringing this up?āĀ
āJust thought you might be interested, Liam.ā Arvid shrugs.Ā
That makes his head spin more. Why would Arvid think that? Maybe he is being obvious. Everyone knows that Liam is a cheating bastard and should be slung out and shamed by the town. He just goes down an awful rabbit hole. Too many google searches and dumb ass quizzes that remind him of when he was a teenage boy figuring out he was gay. Itās miserable, and Liam doesnāt make himself feel better by the end.Ā
Maybe he is polyamorous, or maybe heās trying to rationalize how awful heās being. Itās just complicated, and he needs to stop. He hates himself for enjoying Arvidās smile as much as Isackās laugh. For wanting Arvid to keep hugging him when itās not necessary. For wanting the best of both worlds. He doesnāt sleep well the night after the whole debacle, and his race performance reflects it.Ā
Isack starts to notice after that, Liam is more than aware. Heās shying away from both of them, because pushing it all away is easier than dealing with it. Isack isnāt satisfied with that though.Ā
āYouāre being weird,ā Isack tells him one night. Theyāre out to dinner, in a quiet corner of a slow restaurant. Liam hasnāt touched his food. āSomething is wrong, and worse you are not telling me. Did I do something?ā
āNo!ā Liam huffs quickly, āItās not you Isack. Youāre perfect.āĀ
Unfortunately, that doesnāt seem to fix a thing. āIf itās not me then what? You know I love you, Liam, and you love me. So why can you not tell me? Weāre together in this.ā
āI canāt- because weāre together in this,ā he whispers. Suddenly, his eyes are getting damp and his throat is getting tight. āIām messing everything up, and I really donāt wanna.āĀ
āI donāt see anything messed up.ā God, Isack sounds so sincere, and it hurts. Liam is genuinely the Worst.Ā
Liam takes a breath, and reaches out to take Isackās gracious hands. āI love you. So much. Best thing to happen since I joined the Redbull program. I promise I do⦠nothing can change that. I want to be good to you. I wanted to do good by you.ā He grits out, shaking his head when Isack tries to interject. āDonāt say I do. Because Iām not. Iām.. Iām letting my eyes wander and Iām entertaining someone elseās advances- or maybe Iām so messed up that Iām just pretending thatās what they are. I swear I donāt love you any less but- I think Iām cheating on you?āĀ
āThen why havenāt you gotten rid of me yet?ā Liam hiccups, trying to wipe his tears.Ā
āHave you thought that perhaps it is not a deal breaker? I think we are very secure in our relationship. I think you are happy with me, and happy with him. I want you to be the Most Happy. That could mean both of us. I do not mind so much, hmm?ā Isack tugs on Liamās hands until he gets the memo. Walks around the booth to sit next to Isack and hugs him. āYou are my Boyfriend. I want you to be happy. Heās cute, non?ā
Liam canāt help but giggle. āHeās cute.āĀ
āHe makes you blush, so we have something in common.ā Isack continues. āI think you get all up in your head instead of telling me things. And I donāt like it.āĀ
āIām sorry.ā Liam sighs.
They sit together for a while, and it makes Liam settle. Happy and warm together.
Isack doesnāt hesitate though. āSo, should we call him?āĀ
Liam smiles, nodding against Isackās neck. āSounds perfect, babe.ā
A.N: AHHHHHH I like this one a lot. I hope you did too. Pls reblog or comment to let me know ur thoughts and feel free to send ur own asks. Any Paring, Any Situation (I see you rare pair askers, I'm coming I promise)
guys if you like lisack AND lawblad but can't pick between them, may I suggest: threesome. they're poly and in love. united by their love of the pathetic new zealander
Okay this might be controversial but with most other ships I would totally agree. My problem with these three is, I don't feel a vibe between Isack and Arvid at all and that makes it hard for me to ship them.
I do enjoy the occasional lawbladjar content, don't get me wrong, I just like the conflict of Isack and Arvid being super jealous of each other while Liam is poly and in love with both of them, so much more.
