he's studying mechanical engineering with a desire to work in motorsports (obv)
he's not super into school but there are fun parties with free alcohol so
he's extremely smart and finds his classes kinda boring bc the concepts come so easily to him (idk how realistic this is bc mech engineering sounds crazy hard but can we just pretend?)
he shares a dorm with some crazy german kid named sebastian
seb is studying to be an environmental engineer (obv)
the two of them don't hang out much during the week (different classes/schedules) but party together on the weekend
with a little alcohol, kimi really opens up and goes wild (the first time seb saw him like that he couldn't believe it. he took so many pictures and videos that night so he wouldnt forget)
but by the end of a party, kimi is usually blacked out on the sofa while seb is singing and dancing with a group of girls he befriended earlier in the night
occasionally seb has people over, in which case kimi will sleep on the sofa in the common room (he can sleep anywhere, it doesn't matter to him)
kimi never really has anyone over. on the rare occasion that he hooks up with someone college-aged, he'll take them back to his room and seb will say something stupid like "threesome anyone??" before grabbing a book and leaving
kimi's more into older men (his thermodynamics professor is the only reason he doesn't fall asleep in class) so he'll usually insist that they go back to their place instead of the dorms
older men like him because he's got a cute face and is a bit shy and mysterious (and yes that may be true but more than that, kimi's just quiet. he doesn't feel the need to speak all the time)
he doesn't have many girls in his classes but the engineering building is next to the film building, so when gets out of his classes, he sees some girls leaving their film classes
they're cute but he has no idea how to approach them
plus he thinks that they probably think he's weird, and that when they look at him and giggle in their groups, they're probably laughing at him (this is completely false, of course. like the older men that kimi hooks up with, they think he's cute and shy and mysterious)
if he's not in class, sleeping, or studying, he's probably at the gym
the campus gym is open 24 hours so kimi goes at odd hours (super early or super late)
he went on a saturday at 8 am once and.........never again
he has to get a place off campus next year and will probably ask seb to be his roommate again. he's pretty much the only person that kimi can stand to be around for more than a few hours, despite the fact that they're opposites
and of course, reference pics!! here's them as freshmen (in this au they're sophomores but i like these pics. they scream "fresh out of high school and very lost")
and seb <3 this hair....its giving golden retriever
Top 5 Kimi eras plz
After trying my best to find a way to divide his whole life into 5 parts, I've decided to simply do the impossible task of picking just 5 eras. So, in no particular order:
Rally era
↑ the hair, the suit, the closest we've ever gotten to rbr kimi.
Lotus era
↑ oh my god. oh my god. oh my god.
1st Ferrari stint era
↑ this is what "hang it in the louvre" refers to. btw.
Alfa Romeo era
↑ when i tell you i start breathing SO loudly when i think of this era. single-handedly turned me into an old man fucker.
McLaren era
↑ objectively speaking, this is the prettiest a human being has ever looked.
bonus: jobless boyfriend era
↑ i'd let him live in my garage
oh don't mind me, I'm just crashing out over champagne seb once again
my shayla😭😭
kimi, let me li- one chance pls pls🫣🤲🏻
