    Summary

    “Do you know what fanfiction is?”

    Max blinks. “Yeah?”

    “Oh, good,” Charles says, even more relieved. “Do you know people write about celebrities?”

    Max rolls his eyes. “I’ve been briefed by PR, yeah.”

    Charles flops down on the lounge, Sassy and Jimmy long gone, and props his feet up on the coffee table. Max rolls his eyes again, then sits down next to him. He and Charles are friends, kind of, and certainly closer now that they’ve ever been before, but he’s never really witnessed Charles having a PR-related meltdown before. They’re not that close.

    Oh, well. A first time for everything, he supposes.

    “Great!” Charles says cheerily, then unlocks his phone and shoves it in Max’s face. “Do you also know that we’re ranked second on Archive of Our Own?”

    Summary

    Possibilities lined up before her. If she was a superhero, everyone would love her. She would have parades. She’d be powerful, perhaps more powerful than her parents. She couldn’t wait to tell everyone that she, Chloé Bourgeois, was a superhero!

    Then she looked in the mirror.

     

    Leather.

     

    Chloé was wearing not only a full-body leather suit, but on top of that she wore leather gloves, boots and a belt. Leather-on-leather! An atrocity! Even worse, Chloé’s hair was pulled out of its neat ponytail, and had turned into a mess of curls. Chloé spent an hour every morning having her butler straighten her hair, she didn’t want it to revert to it’s natural curly state every time she transformed! The excessive leather did not even spare her head, giving her both leather ears and a leather mask that tinted her sclera blue.

    If Chloé’s mother, the Queen of Fashion, ever saw this, Chloé knew exactly what she would say: “Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!”

    So this is why superheros had secret identities.

    Summary

    Charles Leclerc has been losing all year. On track? Disaster. Ferrari strategy? A philosophical experiment in pain. His AO3 haven? Under siege.

    The Landoscar tag is exploding and Charles—longtime, definitely platonic, definitely normal consumer of Lestappen fanfic—has had enough. To protect the tag (and his fragile sanity), he convinces Max Verstappen to fake-date him.

    It’s supposed to be strategic. It was supposed to be subtle. And maybe, just maybe, the greatest love story AO3 has ever seen. If Charles doesn’t cry first. Or crash. Or both.
