Grease 2 has lived in my head rent free for an unreasonable amount of time, so naturally I decided to throw the entire cast into a modern AU involving junkyard restorations, emotionally constipated mechanics, illegal engine swaps, Formula 1 paddocks, and enough classic cars to bankrupt several nations.
This fic follows Beth Moreau, Stephanie Zinone's Monaco-born cousin, whose idea of stress relief is dragging abandoned cars home and somehow making them road legal again. Somewhere along the way, Michael Carrington fell in love with her, Johnny Nogerelli became emotionally attached against his will, and Mercedes-AMG Petronas made the catastrophic mistake of giving her professional responsibilities.
Expect:
- Grease 2 characters in a modern setting
- aggressively detailed car content
- found family chaos
- emotional slow burns
- Michael Carrington being painfully in love
- questionable engineering decisions
- Beth treating human relationships like engine diagnostics
- enough motorsport references to concern casual readers
You do NOT need to understand cars or Formula 1 to read this. If anything, confusion is part of the experience.
Anyway. Welcome to the garage.
