YOU. WILL. WRITE. oh you want to write so bad. all the motivation is here. the plot is so good. words come to you so naturally. YOU ARE GOING TO WRITE. RIGHT NOW.
“you should write every day” bestie i’m trying to live every day. write?? i barely eat enough fruit.
I sent you a link on my Billion Dollar Man translation)
l also would be happy, if I could translate the next part "For the want of a Monegasque" ✨
Yep! of course you can! I am really excited that you loved the stories so much to dedicate the time to translate them.
Hiiiiii! omg i literally just binged read every single WAG!Charles story you have. I came here from AO3 and i just want to say i am not disappointed at ALL. i literally haven’t laughed or giggled or kicked my feet so much to scenarios as i have with yours. I just want to give HUGE KUDOS to you for everything and i would like to drop a scene if you don’t mind.
My mind has been going crazy with all these scenarios and it’s hard to pick one but i would like to share it with you.
I would like to begin with saying i ABSOLUTELY LOVE the fashion elements of this AU. I absolutely adore it so i would like to play into that a bit.
Imagine Charles like a very big event to attend in Monaco (or somewhere else) and he is going to drive himself there.
Max offers (or just gives) Charles his Valkyrie and Charles drives it. He is dressed in the most elegant and expensive clothes, jewelry, bag (worth thousands).
He gets pictured driving the car and leaving the car and everyone goes CRAZY. (i am a huge fan of the little reactions and comments from fans and the public or articles you do) So could include their reactions and in the end Max is super proud and Charles lands more deals with cars and whatnot.
You are welcome to do with this what you like. i just can not wait for more updates.
Thank you for blessing me with WAG Charles 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi @janeojames 😮💨
Awww thank you so much for reading!! And for sending in such a sweet ask 🥹 Welcome to this little corner of Lestappen where all feral and unhinged scenarios are beloved!! I'm so happy you're here and enjoying the madness 🥰
And this scenario you've painted?? It is absolutely decadent, oh my goodness—it is pure splendor and high glamour and absolute indulgence, I adore it.
Charles getting invited to ultra exclusive private fashion showing near Paris—one that's usually reserved for those that work in the fashion industry or A-list stars.
And Charles scored the invite all on his own. His daring fashion choices, clever mix-and-match pieces, and the fact he sometimes sews his own dresses have made him a fashion ingenue—someone everyone is keeping an eye on because they can't wait to see what this rising fashionista will get up to next 👀
And you know how every once in a while there will be a paparazzi photo so iconic and perfect that it shifts the cultural landscape? Well this is one of those moments:
[Video Description: Charles Leclerc pulling up to the front of the Château des Champs-sur-Marne, the venue for this extra exclusive show and also the refuge of Madame de Pompadour.]
(The Monegasque Omega is driving the gorgeous Adrian Newey designed Aston Martin Valkyrie that is his boyfriend's pride and joy but the second Charles mentioned he was going to this event? Max kissed him, gave him the RFID key fob, and jealously admitted, "If I didn't have this mandatory sponsorship event, I'd be right there with you, watching you drive that Valkyrie. All dressed up and pretty—fuck, schatje, I'm getting hard just thinking about it.")
[Image Description: Charles climbing out of the driver's seat. He's driving a customized, one of a kind Aston Martin Valkyrie that can only belong to one person—his boyfriend, Max Verstappen. Charles is dressed in a shimmering lavender mini dress with spaghetti thin straps that's see-through and covered with what looks like iridescent mermaid scales. On his feet are luminous Sophia Webster butterfly stilettos in a matching shade of twinkling lavender. As Charles gets out of the car, a soft gust of wind blows by, causing his soft brown curls to ruffle in the breeze. He looks like he's on the set of a Vogue France cover shoot.]
vogueinstagram Style icon and rising fashion designer Charles Leclerc makes his debut at the annual Claire Thomson-Jonville's Palette de Mode where fashionistas around the world get a coveted glimpse at the behind-the-scenes moments that make a fashion trend.
User1 Oh. My. God!!!! Charles, my angel bby Charles, he's made it, hasn't he? 🥹
User2 I want to say you're being dramatic but I can't even bring myself to get snarky because holy shit, an invite to the Claire Thomson-Jonville's private event that's literally tailored to insiders and fashion industry heavyweights?? @/charles_leclerc I'm so proud of you ❤️
User3 hi i'm not sure what the big deal is? don't influencers get invited to these fashion things a lot?
User4 @/User3 This isn't just a "fashion thing" this is the event where designers, editors, and stylists get to go around and survey one another's work and formulate discussions that lead to entire trends being developed. It's hosted by the editor-in-chief of Vogue France. It's invitation only. You can't buy your way in.
User5 Lmao "can't buy your way in" let's not get too crazy. So Charles posts a few pictures and wears some nice clothes, we all know Max is the one who bought him this invite, just like how he's bought his entire career 🙄 #delusionalstans
User6 ohhhhh so now max is, like, a super big fashionista? omg did not realize in between him wearing the same shit every day and never going to fashion week. he surely bought charles's career! /s
User7 Dating Max gave Charles visibility. Everything else Charles worked his ass off for @/User3
User8 I cannot get over how gorgeous Charles looks, like a literal mermaid angel princess 🥺 Liked by maxverstappen3
User9 the fact that max let him borrow the aston martin valkyrie......like.....they're in LOVE love
User10 I loved the moment where charles is getting interviewed and his phone starts buzzing and charles starts apologizing n saying he needs to answer bc that's max's ringtone 🥺🥺🥺
User11 EVEN CUTER THAT MAX WAS CHECKING TO SEE IF CHARLES MADE IT THERE SAFELY 😭😭😭😭😭💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
maxverstappen3 My beautiful style icon @/charles_leclerc I'm so proud of you. Liked by charles_leclerc
clairethomsonjonville Thank you for attending chéri, it was a pleasure to meet you and hear from you. We hope to see you many more times @/charles_leclerc Liked by charles_leclerc
maxverstappen3 Next time I'll attend with you schatje @/charles_leclerc
clairethomsonjonville Apologies @/maxverstappen3 this event is invitation only. No plus ones. We hope you understand.
charles_leclerc I'm sorry mon cœur but I can't bring a plus one 🥺 but I promise I'll make the hotel trip worth it 🥰 @/maxverstappen3
User12 Hey @/User5 how's that theory of "Max buying Charles's career" working out for you when Max can't even attend the same fashion event because it's invite only? And only Charles got invited? 🤔 Liked by maxverstappen3
A New Beginning (WAG Charles AU)
It was an open secret that after Max's divorce, the Alpha was dating Charles. Almost everyone knew about the two but they had yet to make it official. (for some reason I will think of later :))
Fans become very interested about who Charles is so they and the media dig for everything that has to do with Charles. They found out that he is a fashion student.
Which leads to during one of the races a TikTok interviewer went up to Charles and asked him about his fashion (Like what he is wearing, from who) and Charles shocked someone even approached him takes a moment to answer before he reveals to them that he was the one who made his outfit and that he makes most of his clothes.
He is really proud of that fact so he wasn't shy about his work. He knew if his dream about owning his own clothing brand were to become a reality he needed to get used to the spotlight.
Everyone goes bananas (Does anyone even say that anymore, whatever 😅) they (fans) blow up his instagram that he used mostly to post about the progress of making the clothes and the finished product. (He mostly posted for fun and only to his friends and college classmates who he was friends with) People love that he has such an amazing talent and they flood him with messages about him showing them more.
Charles is very overwhelmed with the sudden attention he receives, but he decides to indulge them, and began posting more about his own projects and simple OOTD videos. Those become really popular and he starts to get the attention of brands.
After a GP, where Charles had shown up in a beautiful Georgia Hardinge Dress, (a gift from Max of course), a brand like YSL (idk) invites Charles to Milan for fashion week.
Slowly his own brand begin to form, he is gaining followers by the thousands. There are articles about his fashion and videos talking and analyzing his style.
Brands begin to send him stuff to wear and post.
Thus his first brand deal comes to life with the brand Clio Peppiatt send him one of the most gorgeous dresses he had ever seen for him to attend a launch (of a shop maybe) in New York. They fly him out and for the first time in his life he is surrounded by people who do this for a living and he is talking with fashion designers left and right.
The more he posted the more followers began to come in. He began to collaborate with other influencers, which drew more traction to his socials.
He was slowly beginning to build his brand and Max couldn't help but stand beside him watching him thrive in something he is clearly very passionate about.
And if one day he shows up to a race wearing custom CL (Charles's brand name, for now maybe) and just "happens" to comment that his beautiful and amazing and talented Omega made this for him, then oops 🤷🏼♀️
(Charles gains like 80 thousand more followers)
(RIP to his notifications)
(Guys this may suck, I am literally thinking as I am writing this but for me this is very good progress. I will be posted a fully fledged story on AO3 about them, when I get the chance.
But I really want to shoutout @24heuresdumax, this person has single handedly fueled my WAG Charles mind. I have taken soooo much inspiration to write about this from her. This idea has been sitting in my notes untouched since October, but once I found her blog it was game over. My mind just couldn't live without the idea.
So slowly I will be working on it, and I will be SOO grateful to everyone who will stick around to read it, because TRUST ME, your likes, comments and reposts fuel me soooo much, it keeps me going, so if you ever want to say something DON'T HESITATE.
Ideas are always welcome, if you want to see something happen in the story, don't hesitate and comment, ask, and I will do my best to fulfil your wishes.
God I am really excited about everything, so...
take care and I will see you soon. ❤️💙)
I’m seated for your Wag Charles AU 🍿
Here are some snacks 🍿🍩🌯🍕🍟🧇🥞
Some drinks ☕️🍷🥃🥂
have a seat 💺 and please await the arrival
🤗
(i am trying to brainstorm some ideas 😭)
I am absolutely obsessed with the idea of WAG Charles
Let me preach, this is still a working idea I am playing around with.
I am thinking WAG Charles is a Fashion student and he meets Max (Driver) when they Max and Victoria (or maybe a wife ? Delish and scandalous 🫦) go to a small boutique in Monaco. He is there for the summer maybe. He studies in France.
I think about making this ABO, with Omega Charles having one of the most alluring scents Alpha Max has ever smelled. He is immediately hooked and wants to know more of this Omega .
Anyways Max later on invites Charles to a GP and they go together. Charles maybe goes viral on TikTok for his fashion sense. So his socials start to grow? And the more he went out with Max the more people started to spot him and his starts to get famous.
(Goddddd! this is such a working idea that I don't know what to write but I want to put out some rambling thoughts.)
Its an Age Gap (cus you know I love it :}) relationship.
Charles is portrayed more feminine (so be warned, I will be dressing him up) .
godddd.... I need to think more about it, ideas are welcomed! I can not wait to work on this.
AHHH I am excited!
Sorry for the rumble and not delivering anything concrete but it's something.... right?
Anyways I will get my ass to work, see yaaaa !
starting a collection of my favourite AO3 author’s notes
honourable mentions
a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.
non-writers will never understand the mental illness of writing an entire conversation in your head while doing dishes and then forgetting every word the second you open a blank doc
my daily affirmation as an author
To add to my Fantasy Lestappen
When Charles begins to have these “dates” with the suitors there is one who is sooooo full of himself that during their whole time together he only talks about himself. They happen to be walking the knight grounds when he makes a comment demeaning Charles about him not knowing how to fight with a sword or something like that. Charles gets very pissed and tells him that he could show him how to do it right? After all he is only an omega, and if he wins he will get a second date. The guy foolishly agrees and they go to one of the platforms to fight.
Now Max was out there training his knights and sees them walking and is pissed. He is harsh on everyone. Then Charles approaches the platform his is at with his sons and a few other and tells them that.
“Michael has been going on and on and on and on and on and on and on about how great he is at sword fighting so he offered to show me.”
Let’s just say Charles absolutely ends the guy who ends up leaving after Max stopped him from going after Charles. Everyone is very impressed cus omegas aren’t trained nor do they fight.
Max watched the whole thing with a smirk on his face.
Oh and one of his sons? Made an observation that the fighting style the prince used was exclusively used by their father. It was known that it was his personal fighting style that even his sons didn’t know.
So….. oops 🤭
Fantasy? Medieval? Lestappen
This isn’t going to be for everyone so be warned.
But I really want to put out this WIP I have
ABO Lestappen Alpha Max, Omega Charles
Charles is the prince of (Monaco?) and as the only Male Omega in the Royal Family, he has to cover his whole body and none can see what he looks like. It’s is sacred to look at him (for some reason). Anyways now that he has reached his majority the King begins to send out invitations to other nobleman, princes, kings and who not.
Max is the King’s right hand man? He is like the highest ranked general (he is like 40, okay give or take a few years idk) He is a widower who lost his wise many years ago and has three sons (all who are knights and younger than Charles 🫢) He has always looked out for Charles, being one of the very few people outside of the royal family to see Charles face.
Anyways the King hosts a gathering with all possible suitors for his son, as he will make his first ever appearance in public without a veil covering his face. Max’s sons (one of the maybe) is very interested in Charles and wants to persuade him but imagine his surprise when he stumbles upon his father and Charles having a heated talk in the gardens.
“Then be man!” Charles cried out of frustration. “Tell me you love.”
“Tell me that everything wasn’t for nothing. Do not do this to me. You know that if my father sees one of those men suitable for me it’s over.”
“I will have no choice but to marry that man. I would have to lay in a bed with a man I do not love. I will have to carry his pups.”
“I will be stuck in a marriage I don’t want and feel miserable for the rest of my life, while you will regret not acting sooner.”
Charles voice was raw by the end. His tears pouring from his eyes. His voice broke as he spoke. “I should have to beg for your love.”

Also when Charles makes his debut Max is the one who walks beside him.
Hi, I've read your work Billion Dollar Man on ao3 and I really like it! I love lestappen ship and so I wanna ask you a permission to translate your work in Russian language ^^
We have another fanfiction service in Russia, it's ficbook named, and it's more popular in our country. I'd like to post there your translated story, of course with the link to original and you, as an author.
What do you think about this?
Конечно Girl. Send the link so I can read it. I am dying to see what vibe it will have in Russian 😋
Lestappen vibes are “obsessed to the point of mutual depravity” ✨
Like Charles would fully crash Max’s wedding while dressed in a pristine white tuxedo and a clutching a bottle of champagne because how dare you marry someone who isn’t me??
And Max doesn’t even flinch, just kind of stands at the alter, a smirk on his lips and eyes bluer than sapphires. “What are you going to do about it, Charlie?”
The guests gasp, the priest tries to maintain order, all the bridesmaids are aghast. Max’s best man discreetly calls for the Aston Martin to be pulled out back.
“What am I going to do about it? I think the better question is how long it’ll take for me to forgive you!” Charles is indignant, glaring up at Max with big doe eyes and a pretty pink pout. “Calling me last minute to tell me about the wedding—”
“You did what?!” Max’s bride screeches.
But the Dutchman is full on grinning now. “Had to keep you interested, schatje.” He says teasingly.
Tenderly.
…Lovingly.
Charles tries but it’s no use—his own pout twitches into a faint smile. “Are you going to grovel now, Max? Beg me to take you back?”
“What is going on?! Who let him in?!” The father of the bride yells out.
Everyone ignores him.
Max turns away from the alter but his bride grabs his arms. “If you walk away now, I will make your life a living hell.” She hisses.
Max shrugs. “Wouldn’t make much of a difference. Life without Charles is already a living hell.”
Then he shrugs off her hand, dodges her attempt to grab him again, and walks down the aisle—
Right to Charles.
“You led me on a chase. On purpose.” The brunet accuses breathlessly. “Lucky for you, I already had a suit ready.”
“Lucky for me,” Max chuckles, taking Charles’s hand, “that you still want me.”
Charles scoffs. “As if that was ever in doubt.” He rolls his eyes and then smiles, sweet and pleased and a little mischievous. “Run away with me, Maxie?”
“I thought you’d never ask.”
A sneak peek at Front Page
(third story in the Billion Dollar Universe)
The line was quiet for so long that Max thought the call had ended. Yet Charles's broken voice cut through the silence like a knife.
"I don't... I don't even care that they took those photos, Max. I don't care that they photographed us together. I am not trying to hid us. I want us to go out in the public and hold hands, and kiss. I want to be involve with you openly... But... they..." Charles voice through with shattering sobs. It was like Max was being shot over and over again in his heart at the sound of his baby sounding so defeated, vulnerable... broken.
A ragged inhale was heard from the other line before a sob escaped Charles's mouth and he just cried out. He let it all out, everything he felt. Every word, comment, article that was written about him in the last 24 hours weighted heavy on his shoulders.
"And...they are even bringing my Papa..." Charles cried out another sob as he spoke the of his father. "Max..." Charles cried, eyes wet with salt streams that were pouring from his eyes none stop. "They are saying things about my- my Papa...Max. How he is so disappointed in me." Charles cried, like he had the day he found out that his father was dead. It was none stop and so heartbreaking to hear that Max wanted to throw the phone against the wall and get on the first plane to Austria. He wanted to burn every single one of those pathetic bastards that were causing this reaction from Charles. He wanted to burn down the internet and never let anything touch Charles.
And what a failure he felt like. With all this money, with all this power he had... the only thing he could do is punish the paparazzi who took those photos. Blacklist him, make sure that he never got another job for the rest of his life. He could do all of that but the one truly important thing he couldn't do was take Charles's pain.
He would trade places with him in a second if he could. He would burn all of his fortune, company, accomplishment he had achieved to make Charles stop crying like this.
(anyways I think I am giving away a little too much away. This is what is awaiting all of you in the next part. Get ready, supply yourselves with tissues and anything that comforts you because this is going to be a sad Valentines I guess.)
Front Page coming soon
