Lando wasn’t above throwing his weight around in order to get what he wanted, at least in some circumstances. And he wanted to meet Oscar Piastri.
In general, he wanted to go to a MotoGP weekend and probably could have either bought tickets and waited around there like a normal person or asked one of his actual sort-of friends in the paddock to hang out in their garage, but the more specific desire was to meet Oscar Piastri.
listen am i a little biased for this one because i was the one who goaded leaf into using this title when she came up with it? yes. but i still think about this title every time i have to think up one of my own titles for a fic its just THAT GOOD. also it captures the fun romcomy spirit of the fic PERFECTLY.
speaking of the fic this is one of my favorites of ALL TIME. motogp!oscar. all the wag content. THE JEAN JACKET. it's perfect. just perfect. pls read this if you haven't already
took me some good times to dive back into my ao3 history:) at this point i guess this couldn't be regarded as "lines" anymore, but anyways-- i've enjoyed myself while doing this:) thank you sooo much for bringing up this awards
love notes in the kitchen (say it all) - @/formulaes (mark/sebastian)
Mark bent down to pick up the ring. What the fuck?, he thought, what the actual entire fuck? He turned the ring over in his hands, noting a small engraving on the inside of the ring: Love You Forever. Mark might actually be going into shock. No fucking way had Sebastian just proposed to him through the romantic medium of eating all his chocolate (again) and leaving an engagement ring as an IOU.
postcards from places that miss you - @/streetlightsky (sebastian/charles)
My poor English cannot describe how much I adore the title like it expressed the context and Charles' feelings sooo well. I felt the peacefulness and caught on an sensational hunch throughout my reading. Very recommend for when you wanna escape tough life out there.
love notes in the kitchen (say it all) - @/formulaes (mark/sebastian)
He doesn’t say Multi 2-1, but they both know it’s what he means. Once upon a time a statement like that would have made Mark seethe with rage, but now it just makes him laugh and pounce at Seb, grabbing him in a bear hug and lifting him off the ground with a playful growl.
“Ah! Mark!” Seb shrieks, “Mark! No, put me down! I’m innocent!”
He shakes Seb around playfully, ignoring the clang of the tin as it hits the ground and peppering his face with kisses, “Stop.” kiss “Eating.” kiss “My.” kiss “Chocolate.” kiss.
Seb is giggling like a maniac, pretending to try and escape from Mark’s embrace as his feet finally touch back down to earth.
Cut open your Heart - @/Lovely_Lotus (carlos/oscar)
His eyes follow Oscar as he bends down to pick something up, his back muscles flexing and accentuating where Carlos left his marks behind.
But Carlos is unable to appreciate it. He is transfixed by the thing Oscar picks up. It's Carlos’ clothes. The 55 displayed proudly on the fireproofs. But there's something wrong with them. Only when Oscar puts them on does he notice that they are red.
Weren’t they blue before?
Oscar doesn’t seem to notice, nor does he seem to care. He takes one last look at him that Carlos can’t decipher. Unlocks the door and walks out, leaving Carlos behind to bleed out.
To Lando… - @/Lottie1824 (lando/oscar)
Not long until the end of the season now. I think I can do this and I can feel you with me every step of the way.
Love you forever and always
Oscar.
5 times lando came into oscar’s room and told him he was bad at hugging plus one time oscar went into lando’s room and gave him the best hug of his life (by fall out boy) - anonymous user (lando/oscar)
“I don’t want to skip the sprint though,” Lando said. “I don’t want to let people down.”
“Taking care of yourself is not letting people down,” Oscar said.
“Which is why you're here to help me,” Lando said, attempting to smile.
“I’ll help you as best as I can, but I’m not a professional so I might make it worse.”
“That’s a risk I’m willing to take,” Lando said, his eyes dark and serious. “I trust you, Oscar.”
cherry - @/helioslover (max/charles)
Max hates planes. Max also hates being too shy to ask the stewardess for a night mask so that he could sleep through the flight. Max hates knowing who’ll be picking him up at the airport. Max also hates the way he is happy to see a familiar face in a country where he doesn’t know anyone, even if it is this familiar face. But Max mostly hates the way he is eager to see Charles.
amaranthine - @/kjstark (carlos/charles)
Fate smiles at them again. And when the sun hits Carlos on the face during the anthems, his eyes don’t burn. You see: his teammate is Charles Leclerc, he’s used to the blinding light.
he just turned in like i didn’t exist - @/linearity (carlos/oscar)
You see, Oscar doesn’t have a problem with his soulmate. It’s his soulmate who has the fucking problem.
“Oi.” Oscar turns his attention back to Lando — finds those shiny blue-gray eyes between the gaps in the paper cup castle. “Oi, oi, oi.”
“Oi?”
Lando shrugs and adds a cup to the second level. “Isn’t that what you lot say down there? Oi, oi, oi. Ki, ki, ki, and all that.”
Oscar rolls his eyes. “Stop hanging out with Daniel.”
“Does mummy think my friends are bad influences?” Lando says, voice high and annoying.
Oscar likes him quite terribly

(landoscar, 1k, g rated)
Lando finishes the third level, his shoulders seemingly at his ears. “Felt like something quieter. It’s a sick little place. It was built in the, like, 30’s or summat.”
“And it’s not falling apart?”
“Only a little,” Lando says, looking at him through the gaps in the castle. “It’s got a big heart though. It just needs some company.”
or lando builds a paper cup castle and doesn't know how to ask for the things he wants and oscar likes him quite terribly.
ALRIGHT i know this is technically a bit of dialogue and not a line but i need you to know i think about this fic and its characterization of lando and oscar every day of my life. it is relatively short yet it manages to captures both of their personalities and their weird little vibe so PERFECTLY. i've previously put this fic on my mandatory landoscar reading list and i stand by that. 10/10 i reread this ALL the time
@racelineawards week three!!! time for one of my FAVORITES
And then Lando’s hand, the broad spread of his palm and the strong grasp of his guitar-calloused fingers, are on the back of his head. Tangled in his hair. Pulling Oscar in, earning a shocked gasp as Oscar’s hands hit the bar, trying to stop himself from falling forward completely.
Smashing their lips together.
You Bring Me Closer To God by wanderingblindly

They’re still close enough to whisper, Lando’s hand holding him in place as he grins wildly. “You like it rough, Osc?”
He doesn’t even care if it’s just a bit, just Lando’s stage persona washing over him like it does all his fans. Looking up at Lando, looking at the lipstick he smeared across his cupid’s bow and chin – it’s like he’s seen god. Felt it on his lips, tasted it on his tongue. Oscar grabs him by the nape of the neck without a second thought, pulling them together just as viciously as the first time.
Or: In which Lando is a very slutty front-man for a small band seeking their big break, Oscar is an enamored bartender, and Jenson's bar brings them together.
when i say this one kiss scene lives rent free in my brain i'm not joking. i think about oscar applying lando's eyeliner. weekly. daily. hourly. god. this whole fic is aboslutely fucking fantastic but this kiss scene haunts me in the best way possible i love it so so so goddamn much
