Yes Charles frustrated angry sex after a disappointing race is great BUT
Charles having a brilliant race at Abu Dhabi, securing p1 in the championship after an intense season, and when the adrenaline comes down he's exhausted and giggly and just wants to bury his head between your legs and give you as much pleasure as winning the race gave him. Him crying tears of joy, giving you orgasm after orgasm because he's so so happy and doesn't know how to express the relief after years of having a shitty car and no wins.
Fucking you hard and deep, but slow because he wants to make it last as long as possible, as you fall apart at the seams beneath him. Him dripping champagne over your body, down your neck, across your chest and licking it off as he thrusts into you at his own leisurely pace. Making you beg for him because this is finally his moment and nothing satisfies him more than you, babbling incomprehensibly under him, urging him to go faster, do something. You've been waiting so long by now but he will make you wait even longer, drawing it out all night long.
Obviously still riding the high of his victory he can go several times, fucking his cum back into you, proving to you he knows your body inside and out, pulling you apart and putting you back together over and over again. He's never been more in love, and he's still riding the high of finally, finally beating his biggest rival.
You are Max Verstappen. And Charles Leclerc has just completed his first season at Red Bull Racing.

I do appreciate 'softer' interpretations of canon where everything is happy and nothing hurts. I think these headcanons and rewrites of characters have a huge and important place within fandom. This is not to say anything against people who prefer this sort of content.
But.
When I love a fucked-up character, I love the whole character, warts and all.
So.... a massive grateful shout out to the writers and creators who acknowledge that Ed was abused by his father, but don't shy away from the fact that Ed struggles to care for his crew. Thanks to the writers who acknowledge that he made terrible abusive choices towards his crew that there would realistically be consequences of, but this doesn't mean he's beyond changing - he can still choose to do better and can confront his own actions & his fear of becoming his father. He is worthy of love and support throughout this journey (though this absolutely shouldn't be expected to come from his victims).
Thanks to the writers who acknowledge that Stede survived his father's abuse and some truly atrocious childhood bullying - but also remember that he is a cis white ablebodied man born to extreme privilege, who needs to be reminded on occasion that piracy is not a game and that his crew are the lives he is gambling with when his plans veer even more dangerous than normal. That he started off as a class tourist, and is still very much learning what life is like outside of his circle of the landed gentry, even if he's throwing himself into piracy with adorable enthusiasm.
And thanks to the writers who portray Izzy as a victim of Ed's abuse, as he is in canon, and who also continue to depict him in all his twisted, messy, bitter glory: a man inured to violence, who warped himself to fit a crueller world of piracy than the one we see in the show, who enabled many of Ed's darker choices in S1 and pre-canon (although... he didn't make him do shit. 'I fed your darkness' =/= 'I made you abuse your crew, myself included', holy crap). Who is still learning to accept the kindness of others without biting every outstretched hand. Who was an imperfect man and is an imperfect survivor, but is a survivor nevertheless.
In short: Gimme all your flawed 'unloveable' characters, and watch me love them anyway.
Girl…..at this point, if anyone says that they’re a Barb, I’m just gonna assume they’re mentally ill or take that as a red flag. This woman is UNHINGED & not at all in a good way.
Any woman who dates/married a sex offender & actively participates in attacking their partner/spouse’s victim is someone with deep rooted issues & is extremely insecure.
She’s been on a downward spiral for years now. Not to mention has already shown that she’s a horrible woman & NOT a girl’s girl, but I’m glad everyone is seeing that now.
Fuck Nicki Minaj & that whack ass diss track. Stream & buy “HISS” by Megan Thee Stallion. 🐍
Desperately wanting to give Arthur Morgan a back massage after he comes back from killing bad guys only to sit on his ass and massage the knots and sore spots on his back listening to his small grunts and moans. Maybe he would do something for you in return…👀
i love how steven takes upon himself the duty to negotiate the terms of their arrangement with khonshu after witnessing how it happened in the first place.
my take is that steven had finally understood his purpose within the system — which wasn't having a normal, simple, happy life — but be able to deal with what marc could not. steven saw marc's trauma (it's their trauma, but he wasn't the one who lived throught it, so he didn't carry the same scarring from it) and the way it influenced marc's perception of himself and his decision making, and how shitty both were.
even mortally wounded, marc's guilty was so great he was about to take himself out of his mysery before khonshu spoke and, even after listening to his offer, marc wasn't sure if he wanted to live. of course the instinct to live kicked in, but i think the promise of reparation was what convinced him. for a man who killed his brother and who was responsible for innocent people's death, maybe the idea of becoming the "final word against the evildoers", as khonshu said himself, looked like a way to redemption.
steven immediately recognized the god's manipulative discourse and how he used it against marc, so he put himself between them as a shield.
for what i could gather, as an alter, steven had been serving the system in a way to give marc some sort of respite. when they were kids, where marc believed to be bad, difficult, unworthy and careless, steven was organized, smart, cautious and pliant. their mother's ressentment didn't diminish when steven was fronting, but i bet his behavior placated her enough to protect them from her outbursts (the memory depicted on the show aside, i don't think steven's fond memories of their mother are fabricated, not that she treated him with love, but with less cruelty)
maybe when marc left home, steven went dormant, only to be awakened again years later, at the funeral.
but now, at the present moment, conscious of who he is and what he is a part of, as an alter, steven assumes the protector role — as a fighter too — but mostly as a form to shelter marc's deep self-hatred and malignant self-shame from the world. he wouldn't let khonshu or anybody else exploit marc's wounds anymore. and, by doing it, he's giving marc time and space to heal.
