Summary
"Eloise did not dream of white knights on trusty steeds or gallant princes from faraway lands come to whisk her off to a castle that might as well be a jail cell. Once she might have dreamt of a handsome printer’s assistant in a grubby print shop. Once she might have dreamt of the smell of rose water on skin and the sound of a tinkling laugh that delighted in everything she said. Now she dreamed only of freedom."
In which Eloise is an unsatisfied spinster and travels to Wales to meet a friend.

NORRIS: Are you *eating*?
PIASTRI: Am I-? Of course not.
NORRIS: Is it good?
PIASTRI: Focus, Lando. No other cars around. Leclerc ten seconds behind, slow lap. After Leclerc is Tsunoda, timed lap, Turn 13.
Let’s do a quick one.
NORRIS: On it. Bon appetit, Piastri. [static, a gasp] Pastry!Or, Oscar is Lando's new race engineer for the 2024 season, and they stumble into a coworkers with benefits situation. And then things just keep getting more and more complicated-- but hey, the season is going pretty well!
