Been brainstorming this Grease AU today. I posted a revised cast list the other day:

Sherlock - Danny

John - Sandy

Molly and Irene – Kenickie and Rizzo

(I know what you’re thinking - Molly as Kenickie? But it’s perfect. They both like working in body shops.)

Janine and Mary - Frenchy and Doody

Greg and Mycroft - Putzie and Jan

Sally and Anthea - Sonny and Marty

Elizabeth Smallwood - Principal McGee

Anderson - Coach Calhoun

Mrs. Hudson - Vi

Moriarty – Balmudo/Cha Cha

And I would add to it:

Sarah - Patty Simcox/Tom Chisum

Anyway, some of the ideas I had:

Obviously I can’t truly make it a musical, instead I would just have scenes that evoke the messages of the songs.

Also, since these are gay couples, I don’t plan for them to fit the traditional T-Bird/Pink Lady roles. I would mix it up a little. Also, this is set in the same time period as Grease, but with views on sexuality more similar to today.

John and Sherlock meet over the summer and have a good time, maybe even solve a case together, then go their separate ways. When school starts again, Sherlock tells the others about the guy he met. They assume it’s a romance and he doesn’t set them straight (heh). John is telling his new acquaintances about this super cool dude and their fun platonic adventures, totally insisting that he’s not gay.

Irene realizes he’s talking about Sherlock and makes plans to have them meet at the pep rally.

Now, while Sherlock may hang out with a lot of people that seem drawn into his orbit, he doesn’t do friendship and sentiment. He’s built his entire reputation on not caring. The thing with John was...unexpected, a one-off. When they meet at the football game, he’s initially thrilled. But then the others look at him incredulously. Sally wonders aloud how he got a friend. Sherlock scoffs that he doesn’t have friends. John is hurt and storms off.

Janine asks her cousin John to bring something by her house as a favor, and some folks are having a sleepover. They say it’s obvious he’s bi and in denial, talking about how he’s lousy with heteronormativity. Teasing that he’d be yelling at Elvis to keep his pelvis away. Telling him that he shouldn’t fight it - pointing out that even Rock Hudson lost his heart to another man.

John joins the rugby team and starts dating Sarah. Sherlock tries to join a sport to get his attention, annoying Anderson with various attempts until he settles on track. He’s used to running after bad guys, but realizes he has to quit smoking.

John forgives Sherlock when Sherlock admits that he is the only friend he really has, and they go out to Mrs. Hudson’s diner and end up hanging out with the others.

Everyone goes to the dance, and they are all doing the hand jive, and Sherlock is wondering if this is a date while John just thinks they are there as friends. But then Moriarty sweeps in to lure Sherlock into dancing for the contest with him. John is way more upset seeing them dance together than he should be if they were just friends.

John’s jealousy has Sherlock thinking he has a chance with him, and he puts the moves on John at the drive in. John has a sexuality crisis and storms off.

Molly gets set to race Moriarty at Thunder Road, but Moriarty arranges for her to hit her head so that Sherlock has to take her place.

Seeing the danger that Sherlock put himself in with the race makes John realize that he is in love with Sherlock.

At the end of the year festival, Sherlock is wearing his letter jacket and tells the others that John’s friendship means too much to him and he will do what it takes to keep him, even if it means he has to play the jock and go out to the pub and have a pint as bros.

Meanwhile, Moriarty shows up one last time to try and put the moves on Sherlock. He does something dangerous, and John -wearing a leather jacket and slicked back hair - punches him and knocks him out cold. Then he loudly tells Sherlock in front of everyone that he needs a man, and that he’s the one that he wants.

Henry “Billy The Kid” McCarty 1859-1881

His real name was Henry McCarty and he was born in New York City. His father died when he was a child. His mother Catherine moved West with him and his brother Joseph. She supported them by operating various hotels, boardinghouses, and laundries. They were living in Wichita, Kansas in 1871 when she sold all her properties. She had been diagnosed with tuberculosis, and had probably been advised to move to a drier climate. Billy was 12. They moved to Silver City, New Mexico. On March 1, 1873, she finally married William H. Antrim, who had courted her for several years. She operated a boardinghouse and William worked in the mines. She died a year later.

Watching his mother slowly die may have somehow affected Billy. He no longer attended school. He took up poker. Finally Antrim agreed to let the Truesdall family take him in. They operated the Star Hotel. He worked for his keep by waiting tables and doing kitchen chores.

In 1875, his first brush with the law occurred when he was arrested for stealing clothes from two Chinese. He escaped from jail and was on the run ever after. About this time he changed his name to William H. Bonney, probably to spare his family name.

On August 17, 1877, he killed his first man. This was near Camp Grant, Arizona at a saloon. The victim was a blacksmith named Windy. He had been constantly tormenting the young, slender teenager Billy, slapping him around and wrestling him to the floor. Finally Billy had enough and shot him. He fled town and wandered among the cow towns of New Mexico and Arizona, working at odd jobs.

Finally he arrived in Lincoln County, New Mexico. He arrived just about the time the Lincoln County War was about to heat up. It erupted because of the land monopoly by John Chisum, whose ranch was one of the largest in the west. Billy was working at the Coe ranch one of the smaller ranches infringing on Chisum’s space. The co-enemy was L.G. Murphy & Co. who the ranchers saw as unfairly inflating prices in their stores. John Tunstall, an Englishman who had set up a competing mercantile, took Billy in and outfitted him.

The war erupted in February 1878. Alexander McSween, a lawyer, had been retained by the late Lt. Col. Fritz’s brother and sister to collect a $10,000 life insurance policy. Fritz was the partner of Murphy. McSween was on Tunstall’s side. There was a delay of several months while McSween attempted to find out if there were any other heirs. Murphy & Co. persuaded the heirs to sue for failure to deliver. In February, a “sheriff’s posse,” rode out to the Tunstall ranch demanding payment of the debt with Tunstall’s property. Billy and others urged him to fight but Tunstall said nothing was worth losing your life over. While riding in to Lincoln with his herd, another Murphy group, not knowing that Tunstall had basically given in, caught up with them and shot Tunstall dead.

Tunstall was a good friend, almost a family member of the Kid, and his death was tragic for Billy. He swore revenge on all those who had been responsible. A group of vigilantes called The Regulators, including Billy, went out after the Dolan gang, part of Murphy’s bunch. But Dolan was ready and soon Billy found himself in jail. A few days later he was free and he and his friends again went out and captured Billy Morton and Frank Baker. Those two died while attempting to escape from jail. Soon after, Billy, now the leader of the group with Doc Scurlock were involved in a shootout with Sheriff Brady, who was in Dolan’s pocket. Brady was killed.

Billy continued to roam the county looking for others involved in Tunstall’s death. They were involved in another shootout, this time with Andrew “Buckshot” Roberts, who had been in the sheriff’s posse. Billy’s friend Bowdre actually shot Roberts, but Billy got blamed. Now there was a price on his head.

In May, the governor appointed George Peppin the new sheriff. Unfortunately he was also on the payroll of Murphy & Co. He and his posse harassed Billy and The Regulators all spring and early summer. His posse was largely made up of deputized outlaws and desperadoes. Billy’s friend Frank McNab was killed. His friend Ab Sanders was badly wounded and Frank Coe was taken into custody.

On July 11, 1878, Billy joined forces with a large band of Mexicans led by his old friend Martin Chavez. Peppin hired a new posse. He appealed to Col. N. A. M. Dudley at nearby Fort Stanton to give him some men.

Dudley complied, even though the U.S. military was not supposed to get involved with civilian disputes. He needed Murphy’s supplies of goods and services. It was a standoff. The two factions traded shots at the city of Lincoln.

On July 19, 1878, the enemy set fire to McSween’s house. As Billy and his friends attempted to rescue McSween, the posse shot McSween five times and killed him. Billy and his friends fled unharmed. They hid out at Fort Sumner on the Pecos River where Billy had many friends. They worked at nearby ranches for awhile. It was about this time that Billy met Pat Garrett, who then was a bartender for Beaver Smith’s saloon/gambling hall.

On February 18, 1879, Billy and Tom O’Folliard rode into Lincoln to meet with Dolan and Jesse Evans to discuss a truce. Supposedly the truce was made but immediately Campbell killed H. J. Chapman, Mrs. McSween’s lawyer and set fire to his body. The new governor Lew Wallace, a former civil war general and future author of Ben Hur, was furious. He called for the immediate arrest of Dolan Evans and Campbell. He also offered a $500 record to bring an Billy as a witness. The kid was afraid to come in though because of past charges against him. So Wallace arranged a secret meeting with Billy. The governor promised him a pardon if he would testify. When Billy said he was still worried the Dolan gang would try to get him, Wallace promised full protection.

An “arrest” was set up and Billy was taken in. On March 23, 1879, he gave a detailed statement regarding the rustling activities in the county. In April he testified before the grand jury. Unfortunately no one was convicted due to corruption, and soon Billy then found himself about to be tried for the murder of Sheriff Brady. He escaped from jail and fled with O’Folliard and Doc Scurlock. He went back to Fort Sumner working on ranches. During that time he met Dave Rudabaugh, another outlaw on the run. The two joined their forces. With Dave were Billy Wilson and Tom Pickett. With Billy were O’Folliard and Scurlock.

On December 19, 1880, Billy was captured at Stinking Springs. Billy and his five men had just returned to Fort Sumner to get supplies. They were jumped by Garrett, who had been appointed Deputy Sheriff, and his men. O’Folliard was shot on the spot and died two hours later. The rest escaped to a nearby ranch. Garrett set out with 16 men but couldn’t catch Billy at first. But it was snowy outside and the moon was full so tracking was fairly easy. Garrett cornered him at an old deserted house at Stinking Springs about 3 a.m.

At first light, Charlie Bowdre stepped outside and was shot by the posse. The others wanted to surrender but Billy didn’t. Eventually though, they did surrender and were taken into custody to Las Vegas, New Mexico. Pat Garrett then escorted the outlaws to Santa Fe. Billy was tried, convicted, and sentenced to hang in Mesilla by Judge Warren Bristol, suspected of being on the payroll of the Santa Fe ring and the Dolan gang. The execution date was set for May 13, 1881. They moved back to Lincoln to await that date. Billy escaped from jail on April 18. He killed jailor J. W. Belle with a six-shooter that his friends hid in the privy. He killed Robert Olinger, the other jailor, with a shotgun. It was easy for him to find people who sympathized with him and helped him remove the leg iron. He headed to his old hideout at Fort Sumner. However, now his friends were encouraging him to escape to old Mexico. But he wouldn’t go.

In May 1881, Garrett hired John W. Poe as Deputy. Poe discovered that the Kid was still at Fort Sumner. He and Garrett and Roswell Deputy Thomas L. (Tip) McKinney rode after him. The two scouted around for Billy and were about to give up when Poe suggested they visit Pete Maxwell, a local wealthy rancher, who they hoped could tell them about Billy. While there, Billy walked in and Garrett shot him dead, on July 14, 1881. He was buried at the old military cemetery at Fort Sumner. He was 21 years, 7 months, and 22 days old when he died.

_______________________________

Myth: Billy the Kid was a Westerner. (Implying he was born in the West.) Fact: No one knows for certain. Three possible birth sites: New York City, Indiana, and Missouri.

Myth: His name was William H. Bonney. Fact: His name was Henry McCarty.

Myth: He killed a man at age 12. Fact: He was seventeen when a bully sat on him and beat him. Billy pulled a pistol out of his pocket and shot him.

Myth: Billy killed 21 men by the age of 21. Fact: Only 4 men he shot, dead. All were in self-defense. (Self-defense also implies an act to escape being wrongfully killed or hung. There is no proof he was the one to shoot Sheriff Brady.)

Myth: Billy rescued a wagon train by scaring off the indians with an axe. Fact: A bald-faced lie.

Myth: Billy rode 81 miles in 6 hours to free a friend from jail. Fact: A figment of a writer’s imagination (it didn’t happen)

Myth: The Kid escaped to Mexico, where he died an old man. Fact: Sheriff Pat Garrett killed Billy with a single shot to the heart, in a dark room, when he recognized Billys voice saying “Who is it?”

Myth: Brushy Bill Roberts of Texas was really Billy the Kid. Fact: He was not. Too many saw the real Billy the Kid dead in old Fort Sumner.

Myth: Billy the Kid was a cold-blooded killer. Fact: Billy the Kid shot only to revenge the killing of his employer who treated him as a son. Billy was educated, wrote many letters to the then Governor of New Mexico, Lew Wallace (Author of Ben Hur) asking him to keep his promise of a pardon.

A/N: K, so I really love high school AU’s and Grease, so I thought this would be kinda fun to write. This is just an intro of what it would be like, but it would be a multi-part shot series because my dumb ass doesn’t know how to write less than 1000 words in a fic. Anyhoozle, please let me know if you would like for me to continue this, it would just be a cute short series for fun!

masterlist

part 2 / part 3 / part 4 / part 5

“Morning,” Nat greeted you as you set your binder on one of the round tables crowding the cafeteria.

“Hey,” you greet, slinging off your backpack and pulling up a chair, dropping the pack by your feet. The cafeteria was moderately tame, as it usually was at 8:00 in the morning; you liked to call it the calm before the storm- the brief window of time when all was quiet and still sleepy before the school became flooded with students. You laid your head on your binder, letting out a long wistful sigh.

Nat patted your shoulder before taking a sip from her tea. “Problem?” She asked. You shook your head.

“No, just tired and dramatic.” She pursed her lips in amusement.

“Clinic’s after school today.” She noted.

You perked up. “Right! We’re choosing our characters tonight too, right?” It was that time of the year again when the school play got into swing. This year you were doing a production of Grease, and as per usual, you and Nat were on the hair and makeup team. You were especially excited for this year, as you’d practically grown up watching Grease, it being your mother’s favorite movie. You loved the classic era of the 50’s and 60’s, and couldn’t wait to see whose makeup you’d be doing for the musical.

You lifted your head to look at Nat again, and out of the corner of your eye, you saw a familiar head of dark hair round the corner into the cafeteria, giving your heart a jolt. You quickly averted your gaze and looked back to Natasha, who was busy working on some homework. ‘Thank God,’ you sighed in relief. If she’d seen him, you’d never hear the end of it. Again. You jumped when you felt a hand clap on your shoulder, turning around to see Steve smiling at you in amusement.

“Morning,” you greeted.

“Morning. Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you” He pulled out a chair beside you. You laughed, shaking your head.

“No, just startled. We were talking about the musical. Are you doing anything for it?” You inquired.

Steve nodded. “Yeah, I’m doing set painting,” he answered, to your lack of surprise. Steve was a born artist, and you were sure that you’d be able to tell what of the set he’d done compared to the others in a heartbeat. You also felt a sly grin begin to tug at your lips when you remembered that Peggy Carter was head of set and props design. You knew Steve was sweet on Peggy, had been since the young girl had walked into his History class after moving from England. You also knew that Peggy had taken a fancy to Steve ever since they’d been partners in a science lab and he’d pushed her behind him when one of the student’s experiments had spontaneously combusted. What a punk, he was always looking to get himself killed, it seemed. Steve cleared his throat briefly. “And you? What about you guys?”

“Nat and I are in hair & makeup again, surprise, surprise,” you and Nat glanced at each other, letting out a small chuckle. Steve’s eyebrows raised and his mouth opened slightly, like he’d remembered something and was about to share.

“Oh, maybe one of you will do makeup for Bucky, he’s in the musical this year.” You tried to keep your expression casual, but you could feel the heat rising to your cheeks and your heart rate give a start at Bucky’s name. You forgot he and Steve were close friends. You thanked your lucky stars every day that they were friends from childhood, and their school friend groups didn’t overlap, so Bucky didn’t hang around you guys very often. You gave a- or at least what you hoped was- indifferent shrug.

“Maybe, he might get chosen by someone else first depending on who he’s playing.”

“I think he’s Danny Zuko,” Steve offered. You swallowed. Awesome. Of course he was the lead. Well, at least you probably wouldn’t have him- someone else was sure to choose him first.

“Oh, I’m sure (Y/N) would love to do his makeup,” Nat smirked arching a perfect eyebrow. You widened your eyes in warning.

“Oh yeah? I heard Bruce is in the play too. I’m sure you’d get along just fine.” Nat glared at you, a scarlet flush climbing her neck, while Steve peered up through his eyelashes from where his hands rested in his lap, an entertained smile shining in his clear eyes.

By the time the school bell rang for the end of the day, you were practically buzzing. You went to your locker, and you put away your bags before heading to the home ec room, where the hair and makeup meeting was being held. However, as you turned the corner, you heard your name being called. You turned to see Mr. Jarvis standing outside his door struggling with a few stacked boxes in his arms.

“Ms. (L/N), could I ask you to just open my door for me and help me put these boxes on my shelves? Just for a moment, if you please.” You nodded, heading over to him. You took the keys from his strained hands and unlocked the door, before heading in and helping him stack the boxes. Mr. Jarvis climbed down from his step ladder after all the boxes were put away, dusting off his sweater vest and pleated pants.

“Thank you very much, Ms. (L/N). Have a lovely day, I’ll see you in English tomorrow.”

“Sure thing, Mr. J.” You nodded before quickly slipping out of the room and jogging down the halls to the home ec room. You were only five minutes late, so there should still be a good selection of characters left to choose.

When you arrived in the room, you gave an apologetic smile to Ms. Hill, who waved it off and gestured to the character list on the table by the door before turning back to her laptop, scrolling for 50’s makeup tutorial videos. Grabbing a pen, you scanned for characters until your eyes met your own name staring back up at you in Nat’s neat writing. Your stomach dropped like it was made of lead when you looked beside it to see whose character you had: Bucky Barnes- Danny Zuko. On top of that, your name was written in pen, sealing your fate. Your head snapped up at Nat, who was smirking from the table at which she was seated. You narrowed your eyes before looking for her own name. She was signed up- in pencil, the fool- to do makeup for Kenicke, who was being played by Clint Barton, but if she was going to pull this on you, you’d put her through the same thing. You erased her name and scribbled it in beside Bruce’s character- quiet jock and Sandy’s first romantic interest, Tom Chisum- in pen as well.

When you joined her at her table, you gave her a pleasant smile and turned to watch the video that Hill had just started, mentally preparing yourself for the next few weeks.

Quote

The beautiful machines pivoting onto themselves, sealing and fusing with others and men throwing levers like coins at them. And there is there the same stress as with the stars, the one altered move that will make them maniac

Michael Ondaatje, The Collected Works of Billy the Kid

Billy the Kid is describing how he’s seen pictures of stars and how they are under constant stress, and if something changed, even the smallest thing, the entire the star would explode in a white light. He then mentioned the trains he saw at a yard somewhere in the east. The way that he described the trains, you can clearly see that he is very impressed and in awe with them. He connects the trains with the pictures of stars that he’s seen over his lifetime, saying that one wrong move and the trains could break and cause them to go off the tracks and crash.

Opinion:

I really like this quote. I feel like it’s very poetic, nice, and it could be used sometimes to signify people too. Your life could be going well, it’s nothing too bad or terribly good, but then one thing could happen and it could change your life forever. I especially like the last line, “the one altered move that will make them maniac”, because this is the line that expresses perfectly what I said before. In out out of context, it’s still makes sense.

Quote that can relate:

I found that I could relate this quote to this one from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest:

“The stars up close to the moon were pale; they got brighter and braver the farther they got out of the circle of light ruled by the giant moon.”

Connection:

While looking for this specific quote, I discovered that I could connect this book to One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. In my opinion, the characters of Billy the Kid and McMurphy were somewhat similar. Both of them are tough, stubborn, and don’t respond well to authority. They become friends with the least likely of people (the Chisums and Tom O’Folliard, to name a few for Billy the Kid, and the patientsat the hospital, above all Chief, for McMurphy). Both characters continually get themselves into deep trouble that eventually catches up with them, resulting in an untimely and unexpected death for the both of them. These two books are also similar in the way that they are written. For One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, because it was written in the perspective of someone who has mental disabilities and who also was not that well educated, the way things were said proved this and the grammar wasn’t all that great. For Billy the Kid, the grammar and spelling were atrocious, and the metaphors (if they were metaphors at all) are very complicated are hard to get. Sometimes, he would say things and I would have no clue what he meant or who is was about, or even if it was relevant to the story because it was so out of place. It was like that sometimes for One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest too. It seems like, in this book, Billy the Kid isn’t the most sane person either, much like the narrator for One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Chief.

Blackhawks as the cast of Grease

http://musicislife11961.tumblr.com/post/156017665086/twoearsandaheart-kanerd-you-better-shape-up

THIS ABOVE, an adorable pic of Kane pointing at Toews with a reblog saying “kanerd:#YOU BETTER SHAPE UP #DOO DOO DOO #CAUSE I NEEEED A MAAAAAN #AND MY HEAAAAART IS SET ON YOUUUUU #hockeyyes” (sorry, I’m Tumblr stupid and can’t figure out how to link it properly and show the pic and the quotes... so the people involved are tagged and credited properly... anyone want to teach me?)

ANYWAY!!! It’s the reason for this:

Blackhawks as Grease

Danny / Jonathan Toews Sandy / Patrick Kane (because of the picture post of Kane pointing at Toews)

Rizzo / Duncan Keith Kenickie / Brent Seabrook (fanfic reasons...)

Doody / Marian Hossa Sonny / Corey Crawford Putzie / Niklas Hjalmarsson (had to keep the majority of the ‘old crew’ together to be T-Birds with Toews and Seabrook)

Frenchy / Trevor van Riemsdyk Jan / Scott Darling Marty / Richard Panik (Kept some newish guys together as the Pink Ladies who I could see hanging out with Duncan)

Principal McGee/Blanche/Coach Calhoun / Coach Quinneville (because… it’s my casting and I do what I want to… lol)

Teen Angel / Jim Cornelison (took me longer than I’d like to admit to make this pairing lol)

Tom Chisum / Artemi Panarin Patty Simcox / Ryan Hartman Eugene / Vinnie Hinostroza (Tom is Panarin because I wanted to temporarily pair him with Kane, Hartman is pretty so Patty, and Vinnie seems a tad nerdy to me, dunno why, so he’s Eugene… and I bet Hartman and Vinne could plan a hell of a dance!)

Cha Cha / Patrick Sharp Leo / Andrew Shaw (I made this executive decision beacuse they’re a couple of my fave former Blackhawks so they can represent the other school and Sharp would SO BE CHA CHA)

:D If anyone wants to put the pics with the characters, or if you have other ideas, please tag me! I find this fun and funny and want to be included :)
