I LOVED THE HYBRID READERS OMGGGGG
So I'm back with more...
Yuki. Liam. Whatever hybrids you think they are, they'd be so stressed with the switch
Yuki wants to ask you for help calming down his nerves, but he knows Liam is probably heartbroken in your motorhome.
Meanwhile Liam wants you to comfort him, but he knows Yuki is probably stressing in your motorhome.
And you're just waiting in the motorhome with all of their care supplies, wondering why they aren't there
It takes a confused message to Max, and Max realizing that Liam and Yuki are just nervous idiots for him to drag them into your motorhome, and become determined to help you care for them. Who else will care for his two idiot teammates? Certainly not Red Bull
🦕
red panda!yuki + border collie!liam bc i say so and I'M GLAD YOU LIKED IT WOOOO!! (also thank you to @milessunflowers for tiger shark!isack. amazing)
when you heard about the switch at red bull, you immediately start gathering everything you need for yuki and liam
and probably a bit for tiger shark!isack when he inevitably comes to you to pout about losing his fellow short king teammate
but anyway
you get everything ready for them—their favourite snacks, brushes for their fur, and definitely some tug toys and puzzle toys for liam because if you don't make him use his brain (a lot) he will get all zippy and tense
but then ... then neither of them show up?
isack does, and you let him complain a bit before distracting him from it by sitting him in front of a video of an aquarium for a bit and then he's fine again
about two hours after you expected them to come to your motorhome, you text max and ask if there's some sort of red bull/racing bulls meeting that has both of them occupied
and max just sighs
because he knows they're both probably tucked away and overthinking
he finds liam first and just grabs him by the collar of his shirt
then he goes to alpine because if he knows yuki, he's probably gone to pierre
sure enough, yuki is pouting in pierre's driver's room
max collects him too and drags both of them to your motorhome
when he gets there he just shoves them inside, nods at you, and leaves
his job is just to herd stubborn/scared drivers to you and he's a-okay with that
you finally get to sit down with yuki and liam
both of them are so tense because they're so scared of making the other feel bad/worse and they really don't know what to say
so you have to start
"obviously this isn't an ideal situation for either of you-"
and yuki cuts you off to say he's fine and you should just be helping liam because he got the worse end of the stick
and liam is just like "???"
the two of them end up in furious agreement that actually red bull kinda sucks
you do have to kinda coax them into realizing that the other isn't mad at them
it takes a while
they are stubborn
very much so
but you get there (eventually)
by the end of the night they're just cuddled up together while you brush their fur and liam is mentally tired enough to sit still for once
you're good at your job, what can you say
