UNREASONABLE. WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS IF YOU WEREN’T IN LOVE.

does lando ever feel self conscious abt being more "pretty" and beautiful than being handsome? and if so, hoe does carlos react??

Oh I think for sure, especially when he was in his teens. Everyone around him was sprouting and growing facial hair or whatever and he had the barest whiskers to shave every four days or so. It’s hard not to feel frustrated about it especially in such a hypermasculine sport, when people are calling you “cute” and saying “aw how sweet do you look in that suit!”

And then there’s Carlos. And if there’s one thing about Carlos when it comes to Lando, it’s that he will never, ever infantilize Lando. The first time Carlos saw Lando in a suit, he smiled and called him handsome.

Handsome. Not cute. Handsome.

Other times, Carlos would fix his suit for him, step back, look at him critically, then smile and nod and say, “Ay, he looks good, eh? Good-looking Lando.”

Good-looking. And even that felt different, like a peer complimenting a peer.

And so it went, Carlos calling Lando handsome, good-looking, complimenting Lando’s jaw (“Did you do something with it? It looks sharp, no?”) or his muscles when he started putting on bulk (he would whistle and raise an eyebrow. “Strong. Not as strong as me, but strong,” and Lando would snort and kick him even as his heart beat like crazy).

Until the first time they had sex, Lando on top of Carlos, easing himself on, gasping with his palms on Carlos’ chest. Carlos looked at him like he was…well, he looked at him, his hands on Lando’s hips, caressing his skin, and he said it, he said: “Dios, you are beautiful, Lando.”

And no one had called Lando beautiful before. He wanted to be offended - why beautiful and not handsome? - but coming from Carlos, it felt like an affirmation Lando had not known he was seeking. It continued:

“Look at you. Fuck, look at you.”

“I could watch you like this forever.”

“I wish you could see how you look like this. Lando. Lando.”

And:

“Mierda. You’re so beautiful for me. So fucking handsome, Lando. Don’t stop.”

It stopped mattering what other people thought of Lando’s looks, whether they thought he was cute or pretty or whatever the fuck. All that mattered was how Carlos looked at him. And Lando knew he was all of it: he was handsome, he was beautiful, hell, he was even cute. More than anything, he was Carlos’. Within that truth, he could be anything he wanted.
