Art Requests: I don't have a preference, I'm very happy to go with whatever the artist wants to go with.
A rugby AU in which George Russell is the captain of the Formula Ruby team and has to deal with pre-season training, which turns out to be harder than he first thought.
One of the main reasons for this is the tension that is still left over from the Ruby World Cup and the ongoing difficult relationship between French players Pierre Gasly and Charles Leclerc whilst trying to form a coherent team.
George is also questioning the state of his relationship with Alex Albon (they get together in the end), and the issues surrounding the future of the English Ruby with the former coach Christian Horner getting fired.
It’s all a little bit of a mess. However, it works out in the end, with the team winning their first game of the season, and James Vowels takes over the role of England team coach.
The overall vibe of the whole thing is that it is a little bit messy but they are all trying their best to be dealing with feelings and the many issues surrounding teamwork.
Author Notes + Warnings:
So despite the fic surrounding the idea of rugby, there is no mention of anybody playing rugby. Instead, it focuses on all the little ins and out of the rugby team, the personalities within the team, how they bounce off each other, and the friendships and relationships created within it.
Each section is set up as a different day, following the 5+1 format.
Visuals include
• A lot of blues and reds, which made up their team kits. (Their shirts, their shorts, their studs and mouth guards.) Each player has his surname and number, which is included in the list at the top on the back of the shirt. I don’t have an idea of what the team badge looks like, but happy to leave that to the artist.
• There is a lot of focus on the team kits, both their countries' kits and their team kit.
• The training kits are similar blues to their kits with blue trainers.
• There are also a lot of greens with the pitch during the training seasons, whilst the match at the end is muddy with a lot of mud all over the place.
• Each player also has a red suitcase and holdall. Each player also has a little keyring reflected in their personalities, e.g. Alex has a cat whilst Oscar has a koala.

Art Requests: I'm happy with whatever you make me
"Well, Max. How do you feel about pop punk?" Daniel asks. He's grinning now, smile taking up his whole face.
Max feels a lot of things about pop punk actually. It had been forbidden at home, his father screaming at him and threatening to take away his stereo when he caught Max listening, insisting the only thing Max should be allowed to listen to was classical, that he should spend more time practicing and listening to the orchestral music that would get him into Juilliard, would make him a famous classical musician and composer his father think he's destined to be. But Max loves it. He'd spent hours listening to it in secret, through his headphones on mixed tapes and CDs his friends made him, on the long car trips he would take the moment he got his license, in his mom's basement, his sister by his side, explaining to her the difference between each band's sound. It had been the music that had made his heart beat faster and think maybe this is what I should be doing with my life.
Or: In 2004, Max and Daniel meet at college and form a pop punk band. They get a record deal and are really successful. The problem is, Max is in love with Daniel and it starts to take a toll on his mental health so he leaves the band. After Max, Daniel falls apart, starts drinking too much a sleeping to little trying to avoid the fact that he's missing Max more than he should. With the help of therapy, Daniel comes to grips with his sexuality and quits drinking. He goes to Max with a song that he's written and they get together.
There's a lot of song lyrics in this fic and mentions of songs in from the 00s throughout the fic. It begins at Rutgers University in 2004 and stretches through 2009. There's a lot of mentions of old tech that have a lot of nostalgia for me and probably anyone who was a music lover in that era.
There's some light marijuana use.
Big warning: Daniel becomes an alcoholic in this fic. He has some internalized homophobia that in part fuels this problem.

Art Requests: Anything works! I'd be honored just by inspiring someone with my work.
AU where Sebastian is an award-winning photographer and Lewis is an influential makeup artist/stylist, it's very loosely inspired by their actual racing careers. A 5+1 format that shows snapshots of their relationship growing in the same industry and their own struggles within it, Sebastian wants to move away from fashion photography to explore nature photography as it aligns better with his interests, and Lewis finds himself disenchanted with the reach his artform gets in fashion and wants to move further into a more "traditional" art setting, both of them seek more freedom to use their mediums exactly how they want. In the end, the separation of their careers because of those different paths is what makes them focus on their relationship, separating it from work and wanting to navigate that new dynamic.
It also features Lewis failing relationship with Nico, how Sebastian feels about it, and how it continues to haunt Lewis afterwards.
Artist Notes + Warnings:
I have taken some freedom to ignore some of the worst looks Lewis and Seb have wore over the years. Imagine that Lewis discovered how good braids and longer loose curls look earlier, so his timeline is more from 2016 to now. In Seb's case I'm mostly ignoring the aerocut, his fashion is not as relevant to the story as Lewis' other than as comparison. He's mostly featured with his cherub RB looks and his actual longer hair.
Some more general visuals are the indoor photography sets, Sebastian and Lewis working in them, there's also moments in nature from Sebastian's POV where Lewis stands out. Comparisons between their looks. Lewis focuses a lot on Sebastian with the camera, Sebastian is very aware of Lewis' fashion.
No real warnings other than Nico Rosberg not being painted in the best light, his relationship with Lewis (even when barely featured "on screen") feels tainted by working together, their different upbringing, and their personal differences about the fashion industry/their self expression.

Beginning in the summer, Esteban and Lance spend a year adjusting to being functional adults now that they've both finished university, in their adopted home of London. They move across the city into a flat share, where they are warmly welcomed by neighbours Daniel and Seb. Through a series of dates, they discover new areas of the city as well as new hobbies. Friend nights with Pierre, Charles, and the group of younger guys they seem to have befriended are also common, and often end in mild disaster, to Esteban's despair. But Lance is always there to surprise him with thoughtful words, intimate moments and, as summer rolls back around, a new stage in their relationship.
Author Notes + Warnings:
It's literally just Esteban and Lance being hopelessly in love for 15k words. With each other and with the city of London. There is repeated imagery of the city skyline at night, parks/forest areas, sharing food (usually candy).
There is one scene where Esteban becomes overwhelmed in a large crowd of people that is like an anxiety attack, but it is fairly mild.

Skiff racer Daniel Ricciardo is in the zone for his home race, gunning for the win and loving the limelight. Tasked with showing a visiting group of officers a good time, his past comes back to haunt him when he comes face to face with Max Verstappen, the youngest captain in the fleet – and the man who broke Daniel’s heart five years earlier.
The more time he spends with Max, the more Daniel struggles to keep those old feelings from bubbling to the surface and disrupting his new life, trying to keep his focus even as he wonders if Max’s sudden return might not be entirely coincidental…
Under pressure from his team as the race approaches, Daniel will have to decide how far he’s willing to go to get what he wants, putting his life and his heart on the line for the chance of victory, and a second chance at love.
Or, a Persuasion AU in space (sort of).

Art Requests: I would be delighted to receive any kind of art, to be honest. I think maybe more traditional drawing/painting or digital art would probably fit the feeling of the story because it's as close to canon as it can be, but genuinely anything works for me!
Canon-accurate (mostly!) 2009 – 2014 seasons.
Rocky’s new driver seems like a nice enough young man, even if he is yet to understand what separates this particular gawky, eager kid from all the other hopefuls. But understanding people isn’t so very different from understanding race cars. Sebastian will figure out how his new ‘girl’ needs to be handled in order to perform at her best; Rocky will learn how to handle Sebastian.
In short, this is the story of a driver and his race engineer, and how they learn to trust each other and navigate their way from a purely professional relationship to something that's much, much more than that, as Seb grows into his full Championship-winning glory and Rocky discovers How To Train His Gremlin…
Author Notes + Warnings:
The overall vibe of the fic is very sweet and humorous, although there are a few moments that get a bit more intense.
As far as the visuals go… there are plenty of Seb-being-a-menace moments, flirting outrageously in the sim, sitting on the counter in Rocky’s flat learning how to make pasta… some sweet stuff like a very drunk Seb falling asleep in Rocky’s hotel room after the winner’s party in Monaco (think scruffy jeans and the oversized jacket he borrowed from DC), also some more serious scenes, in particular one that takes place in Seb’s driver room after his first Championship win, with Rocky massaging Seb’s sore hands…
I guess the only potentially sensitive content is the fact that there's a 13-year age difference between Seb and Rocky, and the slightly awkward fact of their working relationship. Oh, and of course the several explicit sex scenes! The D/S element is very very mild but some scenes do include things like edging and overstimulation.

"Why won't you turn around to look at me?" the voice that sounded too much like Charles' accused, and Pierre let out a pained scream that echoed around the void in response.
Or, the 5 lives Pierre never turned around when Charles called out his name, and the one time he's determined to make things right.
The overall vibe is angst throughout the 5 of the 5+1, in fact the angst lasts a fair bit into the +1 part but there will be a happy ending at the end :") The 5 lives aren't necessarily connected to each other, the only common thing among them being Charles and Pierre still meeting each other, only to end in an angsty separation for different reasons relevant to that particular life.
In one of the lifetimes, there is unequal power dynamics between Piarles (one of them is a mercenary while the other is a prisoner of war who becomes the mercenary's bedwarmer), which in itself could possibly lead to possible Stockholm syndrome (whether that actually happens is unclear). In another lifetime, one of the main characters work for a mafia. Although I do not plan to go down the direction of graphic description of violence, there will still be mentions of violent acts committed by the mafia, including a murder that will be mentioned for plot purposes, so I'm tagging that with non-graphic violence instead. In yet another lifetime, one of the main characters will die but technically I'm tagging it as temporary character death because in the grand scheme of things, that character doesn't die. Finally, at some point someone will get into an accident and be in a coma state for a while (but don't worry, that person will eventually wake!)

Additional Tag(s): Alternate Universe, Childhood Friends, Boarding School, Cricket AU, Friends to Lovers to Rivals to Lovers
Art Requests: While any is welcome, major preference for any imagery of Oscar and Logan in their respective Test uniforms.
Logan is a resident of the Haileybury boarding school in England, thanks to his father’s work. The year he turns fifteen, Logan is given a new roommate: a boy from Australia named Oscar. And Oscar introduces him to a whole new world and a whole new sport, called cricket.
Despite his family’s initial disapproval, Logan learns to play, and his talent grows quickly. When Oscar returns to Australia to follow his dreams of donning the baggy green, Logan initially finds himself directionless – until an experienced county coach offers him a path of his own, a path that could lead to navy blue and three Lions of the English team.
And that journey leads to Oscar’s and Logan’s paths crossing once more, this time on the greatest field of all – The Ashes. With tensions between the two sides at an all-time high, intense media scrutiny of every moment and an old, risky tactic rearing its head alongside a newer fear, it seems impossible for an English player and Australian player to be friends, let alone more. Can they overcome sport’s greatest and oldest rivalry to find each other again?
Author Notes + Warnings:
There's a scene where Oscar and Logan meet again in the Long Room after not having seen each other for years, and realize that they can't speak like they used to, or touch or hug like they used to, because they're not teammates anymore, they're rivals, and it stings. The two of them are all dressed up in Test uniform for their official portraits, and there's a long moment of "if only"...
Extremely heavy-handed descriptions of cricket/cricketing skills/cricketing slang; teenage friendship-to-crush-to-separation-to-reunion; mentions of an offscreen minor character death; the main character inflicting sport-related violence/injury on the other main character (accidentally); sporting rivalry taken to its extreme; the baggy green and navy blue caps used symbolically; Logan’s parents behaving like dicks for a while; light xenophobia/anti-American sentiment.

After the events of Monaco, Charles, Daniel, Pierre and Lando can't risk staying any longer. Their only guide and their only hope of survival is Max, who left them when they needed him most.
Told through Max's eyes, the journey from Monaco to the safety of Germany is not an easy one, and it's made a lot harder when the group starts lying to him.
Eventual Max/Daniel/Lando with established Piarles! Lots of angst and hurt/comfort, and lots of the group getting to know each other again.

Art Requests: There is a lot of social media influence/references throughout the fic, so something along those lines might be nice? But honestly, I'm more than happy with anything <3
Pierre, Charles, George, Alex and Lando are in the AU version of what's essentially One Direction: a boyband called One Formula. Just like in the actual 1D, fans are convinced that that the members are secretly dating/in love with each other. (Except in this AU, they're absolutely right.)
Pierre and Charles (#Piarles) are this universe's version of Larry Stylinson. Pierre, who starts the fic firmly believing he's straight, openly makes statements denying that they're together. Charles never does anything of the kind. This fic properly begins after a particularly harsh denial of Pierre's, which causes Charles to avoid him for a while. This in turn sends Pierre on a bit of a social media binge, and he spends a weekend going through Piarles compilations on Instagram and Tumblr until he comes to the shocking realization that oh my god, he actually IS in love with Charles.
Right after Pierre's had his big realization, the band has to go on tour for their next album. Pierre and Charles BOTH spend this tour hopelessly pining and writing/singing love songs at each other (while still firmly believing that the love is unrequited.) George, Alex and Lando are supportive - if increasingly exasperated - best friends to the pair of them. After a whole bunch of boyband-typical shenanigans, the boys FINALLY figure it out and get together.
Author Notes + Warnings:
Visuals include: matching boyband-y outfits! One-Direction-esque chaotic friendship shenanigans! Big stages with light effects, drums, band, microphones, the whole shebang. Tour buses! Interviews featuring only one couch! (Steamy get-together kisses backstage...)
There's also a subtle colour focus throughout the tour part, with Pierre in blue colours and Charles in red.
CW for Alcohol Use: nothing major and certainly nothing that can be considered alcohol abuse, but there are instances of characters drinking and making decisions slightly influenced by alcohol (no consent issues at any point, though.)

Additional Tag(s): Alternate Universe, Magic Realism, Movie Adaptation
Art Requests: I'm happy with any kind of art, although I feel like a comic-ish style would work best for this purely based on the source material. A movie poster style thing would also be very fitting! Since this is an adaptation of a movie that is itself an adaptation of a comic, there should be plenty of reference material for the vibe that fits this fic, I think. But non-comic style would also work great, it's up to you!
The thing I've been daydreaming of while writing this fic is to have little bits of graphics already throughout the fic, to really capture a similar vibe to the movie. Think of coins when one of the evil exes is beaten, some words or phrases emphasized by turning them into lettering with hearts or dark clouds around them, *wham* *slam* things in the typical comic-style, stuff like that. So if you've ever wanted to do little doodles like that as well, I'd love to see that too! Willing to work with any ideas you might have as well <3
This is a Scott Pilgrim vs The World adaptation simply because I could. Charles is just going through life, trying to make a name for himself in the glitch karting world with his team Quadrant (with Lando and Max as his teammates), dating Charlotte (an outsider who isn’t involved in motorsports), when he comes across Sebastian Vettel and immediately falls in love. Seb’s interested but hesitant, and Charles learns rather quickly that if he wants to be with Seb, he needs to defeat seven evil <s>ex boyfriends</s> exes. Meanwhile, Quadrant has signed up for a glitch karting competition that promises to finally be their big break, and oh right, he’s still dating Charlotte too, huh…
I changed the battle of the bands setting of the movie/comics to a karting competition to keep the F1 spirit alive. To add in the magical realism elements, I made it so karting also involves game-like glitches in this world, although what they are exactly is up to the reader’s imagination. Seb’s seven exes are as follows, in order: Jenson, Daniel, Lewis, Charlene, Kimi, Heikki, Mark. Charles battles all of them in increasingly unlikely racing situations. Pierre also shows up as Charles’s main ex alongside Lewis.
Most of the fic takes place in Monaco, specifically at a karting centre. There’s also some mention of sim-racing, but besides a few scenes there’s not much that takes place online. For the rest there’s scenes at homes (with George as Charles’s flatmate), some clubs, and the coffee shop Arthur works in. I have done my best to capture the comic/video game-y feel of the movie so hopefully it reads that way.
Author Notes + Warnings:
The general vibe plays at being a romcom, combined with a bit of highly stylized action. Overall it doesn't take itself very seriously and has a comic/video game-ish feel to it
There's what could be seen as violence in the fic, since there are fights. Some of them are through karting and are won through crashes, but it's not very serious. People don't actually get hurt, they don't die, it's video game logic and it's treated as such in-universe as well, which is why I'm not warning for it specifically but it should probably get mentioned. Also, there's a break-up between Charles and Charlotte, which isn't handled too well by the two of them but it does end well. And of course more talk of break-ups because this is about loads of exes.

Art Requests: I love non-traditional visual mediums (collage, sculpture, knitting/crochet/cross-stitch, etc) but I will be so happy with any form of art!
Max has lived his whole life with the other people in his head. It’s never been something he’s viewed as an issue, simply a fact of life. Over the last year, he’s come to a more expansive awareness of the fact that he and his other people aren’t the only ones who share this experience.
George feels like he’s spinning out. Over the course of the 2023 season, he’s been fighting to appear together as his mental health falls apart and to ignore the other presences in his mind. And if he had to pick the worst person to discover this, he might just say Max Verstappen.
Author Notes + Warnings:
This fic focuses on three systems, and as such is pretty OC heavy. Below is listed the members of each who factor most in the story.
George&Co: George, Charlynn, Jackie, Dylan, Alfred/Freddy, Not Nessie
The Neighborhood: Daniel, Tiger, KJ, Summer, Carter
The Pride: Max, Jens, Bliksem, Cas, Brecht
If you have any questions about plurality, I will happily provide resources. Obviously that’s not that important for art but if you’re interested just ask. The fic has a lot of discussion of systems’ internal landscapes, which I think could be a really cool focus for the art to have.
This fic deals heavily with sensitive mental health issues and neurodivergences. For some characters, these were caused by childhood trauma. In connection to that, there is discussion of past parental abuse, difficult parent/child relationships, bullying, and medical trauma. The first draft mentions hospitalization but that's not carrying over to the finished fic.
The fic also discusses topics surrounding plurality/multiplicity and dissociative disorders that fall under that umbrella. These are topics that can be sensitive within the community, as can plurality as a concept. There is also a non-graphic description of a Formula 1 crash that results in no injuries.

As the school year progresses for the both of them, they learn how much the distance affects them and how maybe they’re not as sure and stable as they once thought they were, and maybe the unspoken promises should have been spoken. It all accumulates when Daniel breaks his promise to Max over Spring Break and their already strained relationship snaps apart.
When Max graduates and Daniel returns home, they have to reflect upon their relationship and what they really want from each other and the world and if their relationship is ultimately what they want.

Red Bull racing unveils an experimental technology that changes what it means to drive in F1, but what shocks people the most is who they model their android after. With other teams following way, android drivers replace the real ones. One thing is certain, the sport will never go back, and neither will humanity.
Author Notes + Warnings:
This is set in the Detroit: Become Human video game universe, and as such will have a futuristic dystopic vibe to it. It will also have some characters from the game pop up towards the end. This is more of a coming of age story, but it follows the vibe of the videogame a bit more.
The fic does deal with the aftermath and rights to identity of a real person who passed away (in universe). There will be a lot of discussion of death and maybe one chapter that explicitly explains how it happened. There will also be some discussion of android rights, (the teams do not treat them very well).

Art Requests: I have no preference, and i think the fic suits every medium :)
classic fantasy!au, with magic, wizards, dragons.
Sebastian is a baker who inherited his family’s bakery, while Lewis is a knight who happens to love visiting him in the mornings. They’re somewhat friends, not as close as both of them would like. Sebastian starts to doubt his feelings about Lewis. Lewis has saved his life twice, so he’s not sure if what he’s feeling is guilt, or actual romantic interest. Seeing Lance and Mick interact helps him realize some things. Lewis doesn’t show much of his feelings, but that is due to the fic being in Seb’s POV. He has his own internal battle we just don’t see.
Lance is a Prince who will not inherit the throne so he decided he wants to be a baker as well and came to Seb to study but also because he has a crush on Mick, who is a fairy, Seb’s friend and owns the shop opposite the bakery. The three of them form a strong bond.
What sets things off is an injured dragon falling out of the sky into the middle of the town, and the efforts to protect it. The story then follows Lewis trying to do the right thing and ending up hurt, Seb returning the favour of saving his life, and the Dragon being the one to bring them together, even though his method scares the shit out of them.
Author Notes + Warnings:
okay, so half the fic is kind of whimsical, cosy, for the most part it focuses on the developing relationship between the characters. the action part is a little bit past the halfway point. most of the scenes happen in the town, seb’s bakery, his apartment above it, the castle and its grounds, some fields nearby, the town’s centre and the woods. it’s definitely a love story first, and a fantasy story second.
as for the characters: seb is baker, lewis is a knight, (there’s a little bit of focus on the sexy armour), lance is a prince and mick is a fairy. they have some descriptions, but besides the basics they don’t have too many details so there is room for interpretation.
there are mentions of violence, some injuries, an attack but with no casualties, some doubtful use of magic and the mention of killing people, but none of them are named. all of these are mild so i don’t think they need specific warnings.
