#outing fic

Even though Oscar’s been expecting this, knows he’ll have to have a hundred more of these conversations eventually, the discomfort settles in thick and fast. It’s been easy to forget that all of these people — his coworkers, his friends, his fucking rivals — have probably seen it — the video. Seen Oscar in ways he never expected anyone other than him to see in that moment. All at once he’s an exposed nerve ending again, facade weathered by a storm that just keeps coming.

thank you!! that’s so lovely to hear!! i don’t want to give too much away but lando is heavily involved in oscar’s outing in a way that (hopefully) you won’t expect … and not in a bad way, per se lol. it’s a chaptered fic and i’m writing chapter 2 of 5 currently — it’s taken a bit of a back burner while i work on road trip au and a fest fic :)

A part of him thinks maybe if he’d just stayed in England none of this would have happened. Like his moving to Monaco was somehow the catalyst for his life falling apart.
