I love getting to relive this. April slapping her ass never fails to crack me up. And now that you've mentioned Tom being a weakling--can you imagine if he and Ben fought?

Ben and Tom fighting may be on my secret wishlist for Parks. Mike Schur, if you are out there....

I don't think I realized the extent of our miscommunication over the "How big is it?" reaction. How big is it! Granted I was in a weird place while reading this where everything seemed like a double entendre, but how big is it? I couldn't understand why you were fighting back on having Leslie react to that. That is so funny.

Brief hair porn writing tutorial: Um ... mention hair. I think that's all there is to it? You've been doing fine.

I still kind of want you to write that orgy prompt. Just the story part of it, explaining how they all end up there and then all the weird awkwardness and stuff. No sex happens at real-life orgies anyway, right? It'd be like that one episode of Party Down. Maybe some people could sneak off someplace private, suspiciously, but not on-screen.

What are your other two favorite time periods?

[saucydiva]

The how big is it was something you brought up through at least two drafts, and I just did not get it.

I don't know what happens at real life orgies, and I wouldn't even know how to go about researching that, but I may or may not have an entire headcanon for how the Pawnee orgy would go. I'm lying, I have about 80% of the headcanon.

My two other favorite time periods are the Middle Ages and the Tudor period. I have- and this might be a shock- a particular love of periods ruled over by women. My favorite queen of all is Hatshepsut (though technically she was a Pharoh) but Eleanor of Aquitaine was awesome, and Isabella the She-Wolf fascinates me too.

Oh my gosh! I have my answer! Huzzah!

And I am thrilled you liked it; I always worry that when I work from a prompt the prompter might not like it. And I know this went completely off the rails- as I said, it just kept getting bigger, and there wasn't a ton of sex, and I changed it from the prompt a little, and so on... you just never know.

But as I said, feel free to alert me when you dream up these fun ideas; this was just a fantastic prompt.

[saucydiva]

You totally should be. I'm not exaggerating when I say I clapped when I saw this prompt. I even wrote about how excited I was about the (at that point unnamed) prompt on my tumblr.
