Leslie/Ben; NC-17; 10609 words; Spoilers for 3x01 "Go Big or Go Home"
Summary: This chart comes in handy so much, she doesn't know why everyone complains about it all the time.

I was browsing through the Yuletide section and ended up here (this isn't a Yuletide fic). And rejoiced, for Annakovski was one of my favorite Buffy writers and I like Parks&Rec a lot, and as it happens I just watched "Go Big or Go Home" earlier today. Terrific fic! The Leslie-POV is amazing and the dialogue could come straight from the show. It's kinda like watching the show, only an X-rated version.

Snippet:
"Oh my God. Are you kidding? You think I'm going to see the park and give you the non-existent money the town doesn't have?"

Well, anything would sound like a bad idea if you said it in that snotty, skeptical tone. The Declaration of Independence would probably sound like a total downer if Ben was the one reading it out loud. "No," Leslie lies, feeling heat in her cheeks. "I just think someone should be enjoying the parks before you decide to pave over them and build condos or a Wal-Mart or a... puppy-killing factory."

Ben chuckles beside her. Of course he thinks the murder of adorable puppies would be hilarious, that's just so Ben.
