Summary
Dr. Grace took one look at her, at the research dissertation that she had printed out several days earlier and marked front to back with questions, heard all of two of the minutes of the pitch she had on the sun eating alien-microbes, and all but abandoned his bag and notebooks in favor of climbing out of one of the many windows that his packed full of trinkets and diagrams his classroom had. The window made an awful clattering sound as it slammed closed once he’d fallen out of it and Eva had stood there, watching the bright yellow coat bob as Dr. Grace kept fleeing at a slightly above a brisk pace.
or: ryland grace and that damned coat he won't let go of (ft. eva stratt's pov)

Summary
“I can’t believe it’s happening again,” Oscar says quietly. He looks a bit out of it. Lando sits up carefully, and panics when the giant Aussie stays giant.
“What happened?” Lando asks with fear in his voice.
He looks down at his hands. They look fine.
But the couch he is sitting on doesn’t.
It is gigantic! The pillow he is sitting on could swallow him whole. He can’t even look over the armrest.
Did he shrink?!
---
In which Lando not only gets cursed, but also has to figure out why he keeps staring at his teammate with too much yearning.

Summary
“Look down…” the Australian says, “and try not to freak out too much…”
The Brit does as he’s told and immediately freaks out, because right next to the table leg is his teammate. A very tiny version of him…
“O- Oscar?!” Lando blinks, trying to figure out if what he’s seeing is real. The Oscar he is looking at is barely twenty centimeters tall. The size of a hamster, if a hamster had the long lanky limbs of a human.
Lando steps closer and crouches down. “Please be careful with those enormous shoes of yours. I don’t want to die,” Oscar says as he hides slightly behind the table leg.
“Lando… Why is my driver the size of a notebook?” Charlotte, Oscar’s PR manager, says over Lando’s shoulder. She sounds just as puzzled as the older McLaren driver feels.
---
In which Oscar gets cursed, and Lando is so scared his teammate might get squished he keeps him on his shoulder (and in his pocket) the entire time.

Summary
Oscar isn’t ashamed to admit that he’s genuinely kind of terrified when he signs with McLaren. Even putting aside the entire drama that is the contract debacle with Alpine. It had been bad enough being their reserve driver, he didn’t think he could stand to be their actual driver.
Still, the guilt had been weighing on him like something heavy. Both for the entire drama, and the knowledge of whose seat he had taken exactly.
He was glad suddenly that he had never gotten around to disclosing his real designation to the team, because at least that was one less thing they could use against him.or
(Oscar, a newly presented omega does what anyone could do when panicking; he lies about his designation. He think's it will be an easy situation, right up until the grid begins acting so strange)
