This fic is kind of like a big hug. Everything about April and Andy's ineptness was so perfect and sounded like dialogue from the show, and of course Leslie was awake, and kissing, and waffles, and ahhh so cute!

Ben had long since learned to simply roll with it when Andy made this sort of comment, because he'd also learned that Andy was more than willing to fill that ignorant void called his brain with actual useful information. The question that still puzzled Ben, however, was why Andy hadn't started doing that years ago. Like in high school. But some mysteries would never be solved.

I think this is possibly the most accurate paragraph ever written about Ben/Andy.

And the rest of this is delightful.

[craponaspatula]

YES. Why DIDN'T you start learning stuff earlier, Andy??

[jncar]

I keep wondering if perhaps he just smoked a lot of pot in his teens and early 20s. Or maybe he was never properly medicated for his obvious ADHD. Who knows?

Thanks. I've always loved the Ben/Andy friendship.

Oh Ben, You Naive Breakfast Shaman: Butts are popular everywhere!

Thank you for groping two butts with one fic. I love the color palette of your words: Eggs, birds, feathers...

I can´t explain why, but the fact that April is a bacon-lover is hilarious to me. (But of course she is.)

It is very sweet how well Ben knows the Terrifying Twosome by now.

Thanks! I love playing with the roomie dynamics of this trio.
