Oh my god, Yuletide has been good to me again this year. (And boy did I need these wonderful stories as a distraction from life right now.) I got two perfect Grease AUs, one a canon divergence where Sandy met Rizzo on the beach that summer and one WESTERN AU OH MY GOD. I never thought I'd get anything like that. Both are fantastic; they take what we see of canon and twist it into the AU so that it is familiar and different all at the same time, the characterization wonderful, and their voices sharp. They are fantastic, and I recommend you read them immediately.
I still have a third gift to come in Madness, too, which opens 24 hours after the main collection. I cannot wait!
The Yuletide 2018 main collection is open. Enjoy!

What if Danny wasn't the one that Sandy met at the beach that summer?
Rizzo is perfect, sarcastic and jaded and trying hard, and Sandy a sweet and sincere foil to that. Satisfying as hell.

Summary:
Sandy Olsson, the Diamond Dingo, ain't much for the niceties in life.
Too bad she also ain't much for denying those what are hers.
WESTERN AU OF MY HEART Sandy is perfect here, hard and smart and strong, and her relationship with Rizzo wonderful and warm.
