Summary
They shared an apple at nine years old.
Neither of them really spoke the other’s language, and the one tongue they did share was tangled with inexperience and youth. So Charles and Max don’t really say things the other understands, but the apple is sweet and the gesture moreso, their helmets rest at their feet.Series

Summary
In 2007, Max left half an apple in the runoff of a parking-lot gutter. It must have wilted, or rotted, or been devoured by renards.
In 2012, Charles runs him off the track. He laughs about it, shrugs the injustice from his shoulders with lazy eyes.
By that point, they don’t have the excuse of a language barrier.Series

Food exists in the house of landslides. His father’s voice is quiet until the cold jelly of octopus lungs slithers too close. Until Max does something other than extraordinary.
Charles Leclerc is there. There is something red about him. The phantoms of present|future|past are burned into the shine of his kart wheels.
When they race, Charles smiles at him. Offers him his teeth.Series
