LIZ THIS IS SO GOOD. I didn't expect Michael to fit so seamlessly into Pawnee but the way you tied him into everything, and oh god the fact that he left the pit, is perfect. And it makes so much sense that he would fall for Leslie and vice versa, and basically I adore all of this and you. Ahhh.

Now, I shouldn't have really been surprised that this would work so well, because I know very well that you are a genius when it comes to this sort of thing, but oh it fit together so well. In fact, it's near seamless. It probably is seamless. Michael and Leslie are two characters that fit together so well, too -- both married to their work, and it makes sense that when both are married to different things, they can't really be with each other. Ooh, it's interesting.

And the detailing is my favourite thing. As always, awesome job.

PS. This is my favourite line: His siblings, so much like Frank Baum characters - one without a brain, one without a heart, one without a hand.

This was perfect!!! I mean don't get me wrong...I love Ben and Leslie, but this perfectly fits into their world and I love how you tied everything back in. Also I always wanted Michael to find someone as awesome as Leslie...and I actually wish it could have worked out between them. Thanks for sharing this!! Great Idea!! :)

I just had a mini AD marathon yesterday, so this is absolutely perfect. I wish it had somehow worked for Leslie & Michael, but this was great.
