I LOVE THIS SO MUUUUCH. I'm glad you FINALLY finished it and I need more in this 'verse please.

It was SUCH A GOOD IDEA AND IT WAS MOSTLY YOUR FAULT

I'm not even home but when the notification popped up for this entry I lit'rally dropped everything to read it on my phone. And I have. Zero. Regrets. Everything about this is awesomesause. I will write a more coherent later but I love everything about it, from Donna being in charge to Chris in his tight outfit to Ann having a tab and the whole undercurrent of Leslie trying to redirect Ann's attention from Chris to herself. I laughed at Andy being impressed that April knows what's on the menu, and I awww'ed at the last line. Late s2/early s3 is my favorite AU timeline period, and I love that you wrote an AU where at least one of Tom's business ventures turned out successful, even if only on a micro level, and even if it is Snakejuice.

P.S. I love you and I like you.

I AM SO GLAD YOU LIKED IT. I was SO EXCITED to get your prompts because they were all the things I love to write, and it was just so fun, and I love you and I like you, and I'm super glad you saw how Leslie wanted Ann's attention (I see this as a sort of mashup of the first three seasons, so she and Ann aren't besties yet) and yeah, I think my favorite detail was Ann's probably imaginary tab because that cracks me up.

Um, this was wonderful and you are wonderful, and thank you for offering up a completely appropriate fic for me to read while being stuck at a bar watching sports things for the immediate future. Yes. So much yes.

I love that you read this in a bar. I think I've come full-circle tbh, as I have occasionally write fic on bar napkins

YOU FINISHED THIS! I got so excited when I started reading and realized what the AU was, and the whole thing was just delightful. Totally worth the wait.

[saucydiva]

I FINISHED IT (IT ONLY TOOK THREE MONTHS WOO HOO)

If you chose to write more of this, I would not protest.

Ben having dated Ingrid? Intriguing. I'm trying to decide who I picture as her father.

[saucydiva]

I like the idea that Ben dated Ingrid back in the day. I think I lost an opportunity to have Chris still assert that Ben liked tall brunettes anyway...
