Masterlist

Hello and welcome to my page! I am a lawyer by day and fic writer by night. Currently hyperfixated on F1. While I've been on the platform for a while, I only started contributing my own content recently. This is all still new to me, so please feel free to drop feedback via comments, asks, or DMs. Or use them just to say hi :) Thanks and enjoy!

SERIES

Laws of Attraction (Daniel Ricciardo x fem!lawyer!reader): Set in the middle of the 2022 season, Daniel Ricciardo hires a lawyer to deal with the contractual aftermath of McLaren's early termination. Lines between professionalism, friendship, and lust blur as you try to find him a path to the grid for the 2023 F1 season. Tropes ensue (slow burn, forced proximity, pining, workplace romance, forbidden love, etc.).

Part 1 : the one where they meet

Part 2 : the one with Zak Brown

Part 3 : the one with the horse

Part 4 : the one at the club

Part 5 : the one with all the angst

Part 6 : the one in the hotel lobby

Part 7 (18+): the one where they're neighbors

Part 8 : the one at the last race

Part 9: the one where he signs

Part 10 (18+): the last one

🎯 top five f1 fic writers?

This is worse than asking for top five drivers because there are so many talented writers. Here are my top five fic writers in no particular order because I cannot choose one over the other

@leclerc-hs - the way every single Charles’ fic is just absolutely amazing ?!?!? I cannot wrap my head around how each fic turns out to be a masterpiece but I enjoy it every time 🤭

@norrussell - I keep going back to this lando fic and just melt because it’s that good. Also this reminds me that I’m totally gonna stalk emmie and read all of her other fics again 🫣

@arieslost - the writing?!? So poetic I am lowkey jealous as a writer myself but no seriously each and every fic is just so perfect (turning me into an Oscar fan btw)

@sbdskate - I still go back and read laws of attraction because it is just chefs kiss. It is definitely one of my favourite Danny Ric fic series!!

@vivwritesfics - countless fic series that are all amazing and I constantly go back to reread them while waiting for an update

Honourable mentions that deserve to be in the top five but I couldn’t put all of my favs up there: @faithshouseofchaos @norrisleclercf1 @dilemmaontwolegs

Can't believe how much love and support I've missed while I've been away. This means so much Di, thank you ❤️

𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐒𝐎𝐎𝐍…

a special collaboration with some of my favorite people.

The vending machine hums, half empty with the lights flickering. And the stereo— the stupid, beat up stereo put out more static than music. But above all that, the clock. It ticks by, switches the hour and suddenly the air shifts. He leans back, picking at the skin on his fingers, staring at the door expectantly. Someone has to walk through those doors, anyone has to. They always do, dragging a little more than baggage behind them. What were they searching for anyways? What could anyone be looking for at a motel on a plot of land, miles from the last city and the next? He never understood the appeal, but maybe he had to get away from the desk to see it. 

The job is boring, always less than rewarding and honestly If he had it his way, he’d be far away from this. But the stories that stick to the walls and the hearts that come in and out the squeaky door, they keep him there. For you see, The Heartbreak Motel was not just any motel, no it was far more than the faded wallpaper and dingy brass hardware. There was more that happened behind closed doors, more than he could ever speak to, that had a profound effect on both new and old relationships. Sure, the exact details of what unfolded behind closed doors would always be a mystery to him, but as new faces stepped into the lobby searching for somewhere to lay their weary heads for the night, he couldn’t help but wonder just what fate they would meet when he handed over the keys.

It’s eleven at night. There’s a certain weight in the air that adds the anticipation. What could he be waiting for… who could he be waiting for? Could it be two friends who are about to share a moment they’ll never talk about again? Or maybe a couple with a storm cloud brewing overhead? Or perhaps two strangers in need of company? 

The door swings open, bells chiming as it knocks against the glass. The man looks beat, eyes dark with exhaustion. He drops his duffel on the floor, hands slamming against the counter as he rests his weight against it. “Need a room for the night.”

He smirks, leaning back into his chair as he lazily reaches for a key. He slides it over, brushing the tag against the man’s hand. “You’re in luck, we have just the room for you.”

Every key handed out is the beginning of a story that ends at checkout. He didn’t have to do much, just sit back and let the Heartbreak Motel do what it does best.

Hi everyone, I know it's been a long time since I've posted. It was hard to feel inspired after the discourse around women in motorsports took place at the beginning of the F1 season. It lead to a long bout of writers block, coupled with life and responsibilities getting in the way. One thing that has pulled me out of this lull is a collaborative project organized by @silverstonesainz. I can't thank Dani enough for the inspiration. Keep an eye out for more details soon ❤️ 🦄

Susie Wolff is officially suing the FIA. Her statement on the matter is especially relevant:

“I feel more than ever it is important to stand up, call out improper behavior and make sure people are held to account.

Whilst some may think silence absolves them from responsibility — it does not.”

lewis is the only one actually came prepared with thoughts and appropriate statements about the situation (per usual)

the paddock bar lewis has a variety of bad takes (lance’s side comment, vb and nh being off base, dr literally calling it noise and distraction)

red bull employee that made the complaint has been terminated

mbs and ch are still in the paddock
