absolute whiplash bc domscar in the video with the drop challenge and now Oscar being completely blissfully whipped by bossy Lando
- Lando needs a restraining order on the smile Oscar has while watching him silently
Lando classing Oscar and Carlos together does ~something to me in terms of me wanting to read smth about their roles in Lando's life and how he perceives those roles !!! we already know Oscar always classes Lando and Carlos together bc Lando stalker/carlando stan but Lando putting Oscar and Carlos together mmmmmmmmmm two significant men in his life but also parallel of Lando needing Carlos to help him his first years in F1 and now Lando being the one to help Oscar through his first years in F1 .....
- Oscar feebly bringing up the rules and Lando huffily turning away from him and muttering "changed the rules" and that WHAT
- Lando doing the deadly wife-turns-to-husband-outraged and Oscar looking utterly UTTERLY fond and in love while being scolded in public and on camera and softly saying "no"
- AND THEN WHEN OSCAR STUMBLES OVER IS WORDS AND LANDO GIVES HIM THAT LOOK LIKE HMMM???- THEN STARING AT EACH OTHER SMILING BC IT'S GOOD FOR COUPLES TO ARGUE SOMETIMES WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEYYYYY
- "unless the other person" "their" neutral pronouns :)
- they do that thing of only talking to each other rather than the camera or the interviewer when deciding what Alex and Daniel's podcasts would be bc they'd both actually be interested in those
- Oscar's mischievous little smile but once again all Lando has to do is voice displeasure and Oscar caves immediately
- Lando's little smile that he automatically hides after Oscar says "one of the first times I met you"
- also the way Oscar like hesitates for a sec bc he's prob thinking of how they met during the sky interview already but does Lando remember ??
- Lando tapping at the nickname and Oscar's utter pride in "Osco" do you like that your cool teammate wants to have a name all his own for you do you want him to have ownership over you
- OH GOD OSCAR LOOKING HELPLESSLY BETWEEN THEM WHILE THEY DISCUSS HIS LOVE LIFE
- the soft little series of expressions on Oscar's face as Lando gestures to him and says "why does dating have to be a woman" !!!
- the soft way Oscar is curious why Lando chose Fernando as someone who would cry at a sad movie and then softly agreeing with Lando's reasoning idk that's just so cute he's so like oh?? I see what you mean! :3
- Oscar's little smile bc Lando may be ribbing him but he rly does not mind being known for crying if the moment merits it <3
- Oscar's little 'noooo' and Lando's obnoxious glee at what will probably work out as him being voted driver of the day from here on out ldhfjlsdafhlasf
New TFATWS Bloopers
this is so embarrassing but I got rly into the horoscope stuff about landoscar and wrote a giant thing about it all
unlike Lando I wasn't that knowledgeable about astrology before this, just the basics. so I took from a bunch of different sources.
if someone sees this and knows astrology pls add onto it bc it's really fascinating (also I'm new to fandom so if someone already did this I'm sorry I haven't seen it yet)
Oscar is an Aries and Lando of course Scorpio.
Both are signs that can have a tendency toward complications in any of their relationships mainly because of their ambition. But as we'll see they themselves bond over ambition.
They represent the beginning and end of the astrological cycle (Aries is the start, Scorpio is the end). So not only complimentary but also very powerful within their signs.
In terms of modalities, Oscar's Aries is a Cardinal Fire sign and Lando's Scorpio is a Fixed Scorpio. Aries starts things and Scorpio sees them through. I read this as Lando saying that Oscar will challenge him a lot more and push him - I always saw this as Lando seeing a fresh start to his own career.
Updated to add: Oscar's moon is in Virgo which is actually a huge clicking point for him and Lando in terms of creativity/inspiration and being perfectionists. it backs up completely how they both say their input about the car is extremely similar. but also it fits with Lando being the type of creative who creates, and Oscar being a creative who consumes. Oscar's most recent viewing included Sex Education, Killing Eve and compelling documentaries so the boy isn't just throwing on any old crap to pass the time he's watching stuff that love has been put into. and of course Lando's turned his entire life into creative content.
Aries is a Fire sign and Scorpio is Water which I've already turned into a tag for them because I really like that.
Aries birthstone is Diamond and gemstone is Bloodstone. Scorpio's birthstone is Topaz and gemstone is Citrine. I wish I knew more to find out if that's significant.
Both are ruled by Mars and respect each other's ambitions.
They can take turns in cheering the other on from the sidelines but also motivate the other to be the best versions of themselves.
Aries and Scorpio are both made to be the center of things and be magnetic to others. Aries does this by being confident and stubborn while Scorpio is seductive and bossy. And wow if that doesn't describe some of the best and more 'challenging' aspects of their racing careers.
Aries is a born leader and Scorpio is a natural center of attention.
Scorpio will triumph in pursuing Aries and Aries will be "powerless to resist" BUT Scorpio will dive in really fast and risk their heart more. That's okay because once Aries has been won over they love to offer reassurance and attention to Scorpio. Kind of how we couldn't get a read on Oscar and were worried Lando wouldn't get his energy returned to him but after a few months we realized Oscar was really eager to work with Lando and was just nervous about him and McLaren/F1 etc.
When they clash it can be intense but they can also have an unbreakable, blind trust in each other that lets them reconcile without any resentment. They can also reconcile extremely quickly.
Seriously, trust between the two signs is until death to us part. Which for friends/teammates explains why they've already had to undergo a lot of competition between them but they only seem to get closer and more comfortable with each other.
Aries can help Scorpio get out of their own head and overcome insecurities by their (Aries) positive ambitious nature! I love that one.
Verbal communication is their weakest point because Scorpio is complex and frightened of opening up and Aries is straightforward and doesn't like to get lost in their own head. But honestly for teammates or friends I feel like it's better that they trust each other and it doesn't matter that they can't talk for hours on end like Lando does with Carlos. Especially since Lando said it was kind of a benefit being on separate teams to a friend like Carlos because the competition wasn't something they necessarily enjoyed. And we all know how that went with Daniel. Way better not being on the same team.
It's also for the best for Oscar and Lando because they're both averse to showing their hand emotionally too much and it could lead to a lot of miscommunication. Scorpio is scared of getting hurt and Aries is scared of being misunderstood.
The fact that they both value bravery and faithfulness is probably why they don't need much communication to be honest. They both respond to acts/demonstrations of trust more than expression through words. Again why their relationship has grown each time they face challenging races.
They're also compatibly healthy in that Scorpio finds bravery in facing their fears but Aries finds bravery in tackling a new challenge. So after a tough race when Lando finishes hiding away and licking his wounds he has Oscar there all ready to start the next race with a clean slate.
Funnily enough, Aries brings warmth and light to Scorpio and motivates Scorpio to let go of insecurities which is… really really sweet?? A lot of places describe Scorpio (esp early Nov) as being like an elusive intriguing moonbeam type person with Aries as a confident steady sunshine.
What I find most interesting is that at first glance their personalities seem at odds with their signs buttt after obsessing over them a solid what, 7 months or more? I think the fact that Aries/Oscar is genuinely much more socially confident and comfortable in new life situations fits in with how he is happy to travel around the world alone and board away from family and decide his own fate in F1 fits that perfectly. Whereas Lando socially always leans into another person to help him navigate public speaking or making content etc and his social battery tends to drain pretty fast around people he's not simpatico with which fits with Scorpios often seeming aloof and standoffish (press and fans misinterpreting this as Lando being a brat).
Apparently the thing they're best at doing together is sex sssooooo let's translate that into "pushing each other harder on the track" alsgfjsafj
ship/fic-centric stuff
They will ALWAYS fuck fast and fuck furious. Very little time will elapse between meeting and fuckening.
Romantic love will often only form after sexual gratification because Scorpio/Aries sex is apparently the best there is !! (crazy wild and never get enough etc) But when the romantic love is created it's intense and permanent.
They both have a hard line on infidelity within their relationship (Aries/Scorpio) and they would never cheat on each other. With other signs etc is more vague. If the bond isn't strong or the passion fades then they might cheat on other people - just never on each other. But if their other partners cheat on them then it's good night jim kite broken up/divorced/shipping the box of belongings with no note attached.
Apparently Scorpio will straight up be a freak in bed and Aries will love keeping up with them. Lando will want to do EVERYthing and Oscar will be ready to do anything for him.
Not that it's applicable outside traditional gender norms but in Scorpio/Aries relationships, Scorpio is always assigned distinctly feminine and Aries distinctly masculine. Again, gross in a cishet sense but if you're a believer in masculine and feminine energies then that's generally how they would fall.
Both signs are extremely possessive and it bonds them together so well because Scorpio needs to feel constant reassurance that the fire is still alive and Aries will always provide and be rock solid reliable. So a really easy form of conflict would be to have one of them unable to hide jealousy of either the other's partner or close friend. Apparently Lando would lash out and show spite whereas Oscar would sulk and openly glare.
Honestly so much of this was about intimacy and bonding through hot scorching risk-taking sex soooo I think the sky is the limit when it comes to how wild they would get real fast. Think Oscar crowding Lando a lot or making him do something exhibitionist and Lando getting frisky in inappropriate places or producing a heinous variety of erotic game play.
yea please add to this if you know anything else apparently I can't get enough of it
Lando in 2022:
"I don't know any of the new drivers"
Lando in 2023 directly to his new teammate Oscar:
"you pop up in a thong"
"I'd get him like a… see-through shirt"
"you could go between my legs"
"did you grow motherf*cker?" "how tall are you"
