SPOILER ALERT - THROUGH THE PROMO FOR THE CHRISTMAS EPISODE!!!
If you haven't seen the promo, this a) will spoil you, and b) might not make much sense.
Rating: G (reference to pregnancy)
Author's note: This is based on a very fleeting hypothesis about the backstory of that little joke in the promo. I will be interested to hear what people think of it ( Read more... )

You are on fire today, and it's awesome. Leslie imagining the different ways she could announce a pregnancy was so A+, and then the very simple but sweet resolution at the end. Great job :)

Yes, Leslie and her pregnancy announcements is now one of my favorite moments ever in Parks fic.

LMAO oh lord I want to actually see this fic so badly. I can just imagine how Amy Poehler would handle that sequence of "trying it out". Love this!

Thanks! I should have tried some kind of accent, right? Right! Amy would have, for sure.

Oh, crap. She’s definitely going to have to talk to Ben about it.

So, of course, she goes to see Ann instead.

This was adorable, and perfectly in character for Leslie. And of course it's Jerry's fault. And I too would love to see Leslie trying out all the announcements while Ann looks supportive but confused.

Thanks! We can't have enough supportive-but-confused Ann.

There isn’t a test or a license or anything

“What, whether we’re each pregnant? I’m not, for the record.”

This cracked me up. Thanks for writing it!

Ditto! LOL, at Ben's quote! That one was my favorite. :D

I have to confess, that's my favourite line in the whole thing too...
