#y'all would we call it a toxic trait that i can only focus on details that are wrong in a fic #like the timeline of events is literally so easy to research #when ppl say that max crashed into daniel in hungary and then a couple weeks later is baku i lose my fucking mind #the former was in 2017 and the latter was 2018 #pls!!!! lets revisit!!!! our history!!!! #daniel signed with mclaren BEFORE the 2020 season started!!!! #max was 17 when he joined toro rosso and 18 when he got bumped up #god!!! #it all just bothers me so much #and i know that's bc i'm an insane person who has to check if every detail that can be publicly found is correct #and not every one is like that #but some timeline errors are so fucking obviously wrong that it takes me out of a fic #its just #max met daniel for the very first time before daniel got braces #so fics that say max was enraptured by daniels smile immediately??? without acknowledging that the majority of the time daniel didn't smile #with his whole mouth and hid his teeth a lot bc he didn't get braces until 2012??? #they're just!!!! easily accessible dates and years!!!!! #sorry i know i'm the worst #and upon reflection #yes yes we would call this a toxic trait
