#papayaps

hello lovely 🫶 i love this question! makes me go back through some landoscar moments and i always love going down memory lane! (also i wrote more than i expected so buckle up!)

to start off, we have my all time favorite moments that is the “i like your so kindness, too.” everything you could ever ask for from landoscar is summarized in this short little clip. like. oscar wasn't doing that for the media or for the cameras. he deliberately told the team to ignore him and focus on lando all the while looking at the aforementioned man with nothing but fondness and love in his eyes. he wasn't expecting the video to include him which to me makes the quote even more tender because it wasn't meant as a soundbite or anything, it was just meant for lando and oscar. and yeah. a soft hotel room moment, if you will.

up next, we have another moment that is also forever engrained in my mind, which is the whole of the wcc celebrations. lando and oscar telling netflix to fuck off because they're celebrating with their team? cunt. they said that this is not for the public cameras. and then don't even get me started on the pictures we got from this night. like they're definitely a "save it for the hotel room after when you're not on camera" type moment.

moving on, we of course have lando thanking oscar after his first win in f1. i spoke of how that moment seems to encapsulates their relationship and also if i could add to that, i would just like to uh, mention praise kink oscar coming in full force in that instance. like yeah, praise that man lando. thank him for your contributing to your first ever win in f1 when you know he had a less than stellar race and needed a pick me up. watch oscar preen from the praise. just. lando comforting oscar in the best way he knows how to when they have cameras in their faces and can't get too deep.

wow okay. this is getting way longer than i anticipated sorry! but moment four! this was actually so unhinged from oscar. the "i'm going to keep you happy" quote??? fucking insane. brain chemistry? rewired. life? changed. like that's rookie oscar letting lando dictate the rules to the game (when there are no rules to begin with) and bending ass backwards to keep his teammate happy. okay. the service top and bratty bottom is really coming into play here and let's just end it at that for now...

alas we arrive at moment five and it just has to be them going freak4freak. the infamous deodorant press-con. there's just no explaining this. lando's out here sniffing oscar and oscar's out here offering lando a better whiff. this right here is the definition of save it for the hotel room when there are no cameras. sniff each other in private.

honorable mentions below the cut!

and i feel like that kind of encapsulates their relationship, right?

cause on a day where oscar's race was not necessarily the best, lando still made a point to include oscar in his little speech (as he so regularly does!) in a typical, cheeky lando way.

and oscar's first reaction to the thanks is just. fond. unexpected. tender. because wow, the guy that you have been following all throughout his career and got to witness his first ever win is thanking you when you're race left much to desire.

hi!! i’m honored to be one of your favorite landoscar accounts, that actually means a lot to me!!

but yeah, i have gone a bit off the grid haven’t i.. so sorry about just dropping off :(( it’s been a combo of things i guess of my personal life and the toxicity (?) of social media. without getting too much into it, it stopped being fun for a while and i didn’t want that to affect my love of the sport so i wanted to step away for a bit and remind myself that, at the end of the day, it’s a sport that does not and should not affect my personal life negatively.

*taps mic* uh. is anyone there?

no but hi! so sorry for just disappearing! i was part of a family wedding and i thought i would still have time to post but when i say that my family is big on weddings, they are big on weddings. it was also a pseudo family reunion, so the chaos was tripled. the amount of social battery i have left...
