《FIRST YOU HAVE TO FINISH - F1 ONE-SHOTS》CL; Give me broken eggshells
Advertisement
It wasn't a day to celebrate. In fact, it had never been a day less prone to celebrating than that Saturday.
It was a day filled with red-rimmed eyes, slumped shoulders and quiet actions.
It was so quiet.
Charles had gotten it the worst, wiping away the silent tears with shaky hands when no one was looking. Pretending to be fine.
He had always been quite good at pretending, he had learned it young after all.
Starting with his best friend and ending with another, though he doubted Anthoine would be the last.
Pierre was arguably just as bad, but now Charles had the added pressure of the world on his shoulders. Thousands expected him to win this race tomorrow, for him. Just like he had dedicated his F3 title to Jules and his first F2 win to his father.
And Charles tried, he tried so hard to push his feelings aside just for the weekend. For the sake of winning this thing, for him.
It came with ease. Experience lacing all his movements, but it was no use.Not this time, with thousands of eyes on him and the weight of the world on his shoulders.
It didn't take long before everyone started walking on eggshells around him.
Pierre had started the whole thing, seeing straight through his facade as always. It had been Sebastian next, giving small reassuring smiles to him as they crossed paths in the garage.
Max was next, to Charles' surprise. Though his eggshells kept breaking, cracks sounding through the paddock whenever he came past and those cracks were almost more reassuring than the small smiles and pity shining in their eyes.
Max knew, he knew how Charles felt. He wasn't stupid, he could see it in his actions and his eyes.
Charles's eyes were like a book. His life written down in them, but Max also knew that Charles didn't gain anything from those eggshells. Those eggshells didn't mean anything, not even when they were still intact.
Charles didn't mention anything, but he was thankful.
Thankful Max was a little bit of a pretender himself.
Thankful for the silent shoulder he had offered without anyone else noticing.
Thankful that, even though he wasn't yet, he'd be alright.

Nighthawk
Ancient tombs hold mysteries and treasures that many cannot even begin to imagine. From magical traps to deadly monsters, mechanisms are established to keep these tombs shut. However, there are brave souls who dare to risk their lives for the allure of riches and glory. Those who rob graves and storm tombs are known as Nighthawks. Lucrio Law, the young heir of Tosa, doesn’t care about graves or tombs. In fact, he doesn’t care about much besides drinking, gambling, and womanizing. But when circumstances leave him ensnared by a centuries-old curse, Luc is forced to walk the path of a Nighthawk, searching for the cure to his curse and discovering that some things are meant to stay buried. Author's Note: - This story will contain litrpg elements like Titles, Skills, and Levels. - MC will not become instantly powerful. I plan for a slower grind with a focus on the characters themselves rather than their abilities. - This is my first attempt at a litrpg story, so please leave any comments/suggestions you have!

RE:Hero
Many lifetimes ago, Roy had been offered a choice after his passing: to make a deal with a Goddess where he would help her save countless worlds from certain doom in exchange for immortality. Fearing death and the unknown that lay beyond, he took the opportunity to be sent into realms of fantasy, sometimes succeeding in his mission, other times failing, trapped in a cycle of starting from the beginning over and over again. Each reincarnation left him a little more broken, and eventually, he found himself sent to worlds where there was no great evil to fight. No doomsday looming on the horizon. Yet he still prepared himself for the worst each and every time, until he finally broke and gave up, only to find the Goddess did not allow slacking in the sacred duty he had been tasked with. Now, he seeks to free himself from his bonds. How many more worlds will he need to traverse to find the power to end the cycle?
