Summary
“Yeah, well consider it festered,” he spits out. “It isn’t something I can do so easily.”
“What isn’t?”
“The waiting. The waiting around,” he answers, and even he can hear the frustrated tone of his voice. He thinks he is probably not entitled to it, considering that this conversation is a cancerous growth from the desire that he can’t let go of. “I cannot just sit quietly for the next time you want me. There’s no time in the day for that.” There’s hardly time now. The fucking title hangs in the balance, and Daniel comes to him wanting to talk now.

Summary
Bill,
Thanks for your letter of January 31st detailing your loss of the Thunderbird Invitational. I hope you know that I don’t keep up with that kind of thing, and you could’ve just as easily have told me that you took home the whole damn prize. I guess I should thank you for your honesty, shouldn’t I?
All is well here, thanks for asking. I really am sorry that I’m not able to come to more reunions, but New York is a long way to travel even to visit with nice people. Maybe I’ll get up there someday, but I’ll bet that you salty bastards must get up to enough excitement without me there. Tell the fellas I say hello the next time it rolls around.
If you’re still in California, my wife and I would be happy to host you at our home here on the outskirts of Los Angeles. We’re still at the same address we were when we were married back in ‘49. (Some four years ago, now. Can you believe it?) So, swing (haha) by if you want to. Ring if you decide to come or Alma will bite my head off. My extension is enclosed, and it hasn’t changed either, as you know.
Faithfully yours,
Jay

Summary
In an instant, he remembers seeing her marching behind her father down the streets of Aldbourne, every bit as serious and severe as a ranking officer. It would be difficult to forget that harsh, determined look (trained only on the next step forward and the next) on an otherwise gentle, round face framed by dark curls.
That look is trained on him now, her green eyes are a shock to the rest of her, sharp and intelligent. They seem to dig into him almost instantly.

Summary
Lewis Nixon has been on his last nerve, but he knows better than to fill up a whole sheet of paper with how much he dislikes somebody. Not pleasant to write about and certainly not pleasant to read. He has this latent desire to make his accounts something that DeEtta likes to get beyond the simple joy of receiving word from a friend. They deserve to have some kind of entertainment value.
All the same, he walks across the Fort Benning fields in the newfound heat of April to the post office and lets himself just think for a second what he might say to DeEtta if he wasn’t worried about being a bother.

Or the drafts of letters that pile up in Dick's mind when he starts considering what he WOULD write about Nixon -

Summary
“Oh, you don’t have to worry about me on that front,” he promises her, believing it fully to be the truth.
Nevertheless, she seems unconvinced. “Don’t I?” she says, leaning in as though whispering a secret to him. She has a clean scent to her: lemon, linens, and eucalyptus.
“For starts, you don’t know me,” Rosie tells her, and though his mind wills him to pull back, the body is weak. Even in Texas, February is cold, and he can feel her warmth from where he stands.
There is an extended moment, torturous honestly, in which neither of them move. In which she just stares at him as though their strangeness to each other wasn’t a factor she’d considered before. Or maybe that’s a thought from his own mind and the drinks are confusing him. Either way, she grins once more, and only then does Rosie realize that up until this point he had been seeing behind a curtain that has suddenly snapped closed on him.

Or, Rosie can't help himself from getting reeled in by a taken woman

Summary
“Whats the party for? You get another kiddo?”
Max freezes, then his smile drops slightly.
“No. The 2025 championship.”
He says it like a fact, and Daniel feels his heart sink. He hadn't followed Formula one, blocked all the old accounts, but surely he had promised Max he would keep tabs on his stuff. One look around the inside of the room makes him feel even worse. Each wall is plastered with obnoxious ‘2025’ and ‘WDC’ scrawled all over.
“Oh fuck, I- congratulations, I had no idea.”
Max smiles at him, eyes hardening as he speaks again.
“There are drinks in the kitchen.”
Daniel grimaces, reaching out to ruffle Max’s hair.
“Not for me Maxie.”
It's a line that reminds Daniel that he too has changed, and perhaps they have finally become incompatible. Perhaps now he can finally say goodbye.
“Orange juice, not alcohol.”
Or, the fic where Max invites Daniel to his 5th WDC party and Daniel says yes.

Summary
In Abu Dhabi Max hits a bird. Blood gets on his visor but he doesn’t notice it. The speed pushes it off. A second later he’s a mile away.
Twenty-eight laps later he crashes and the car crashes with him. On the track, feathers drift.

Summary
“Hi, Daniel,” the man at his door says, tentative with a sideways smile. There’s sweat on his hairline and two cage-like boxes in his hands. He hears a meowing come out of them when he shifts to set them down.
“Max,” Daniel breathes out, floored and caught in the way Max rubs at his own arm awkwardly. Max just smiles.

Summary
*New Christian Horner allegations raise questions at Red Bull*
The article title still doesn’t mean anything to him, so he keeps reading
"Christian Horner’s sudden exit from Red Bull has drawn much speculation. . . A reliable source has come forward with new accusations. . . Even more disturbing is the alleged past sexual relationship with an underage team member at Red Bull."
George feels the color drain from his face. He snatches the phone, scrolling through the rest of the article. The name of the supposed underage team member is never stated, but as far he’s aware Max is the only one in the team's history.
---Secrets brought to light make life miserable for Max. George helps him cope the best way he knows how.
