I just saw @galentines post about it being her birthday in an hour and a half (less than that now!) and I wrote a quick birthday drabble.

Welcome to your late twenties, Caity! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! <3

Agghhhh, it’s @kickassleslie‘s birthday too! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I hope you both have a great year ahead!

“What do you want for your birthday next month?” Leslie asks, snuggling closer under the covers.

It's still early, but she can tell Ben is awake. At least he is now after she rubbed her foot against his calf and said his name a few times.

"Hmmmmm," Ben answers, his voice all low and still groggy-sounding. "Lazy weekends in bed. The whole month of November."

"No Ben, I'm serious."

She watches as his eyes snap open. "No. Babe. I am being serious. What if we just sleep in every Sat--"

"No, no, that’s not a real present. But what about a party?"

He's looking at her fully now, turned onto his side. "Well, hold on. I feel like we're moving on from the whole sleeping in thing a little too fast."

"Okay. You can have Saturdays. We'll both stay in bed together until...8:00."

A lot of the time, Ben will stay in bed by himself, but she's usually up by 7:00. And then he’ll complain that he had no one to snuggle with. It’s not that she doesn’t like snuggling with her husband of course, Leslie just has a lot of projects to work on and he’s usually still snoring when she wakes up.

Ben makes a face and tugs her closer. "You mean 10:00?"

"How about 9:00?" She counter-offers. "Pajamas optional after 8:30."

He nods slowly and starts grinning, all while reaching around to squeeze her butt. "Deal."

"Okay. Now that we have that settled, I was thinking, what about a party for your birthday? We can have...a 90s theme!"

Ben closes his eyes again, but she can tell he's paying attention. Ben has a lot of important early morning bed conversations with his eyes closed. "Oh. That sounds interesting."

"You know, 90s clothes, 90s music, 90s food."

"What's 90s food?"

"Um, Zimas, ring pops...Lunchables? Okay, I need to research that a little, but I think--"

He cuddles even closer. "Can it be the early 90s? The early 90s were the best. Oh, and also Automatic for the People came out in ‘92."

"U2?"

"No. REM, Leslie." He actually looks a little offended and hurt now, as he stares right at her. Well, that certainly woke him up.

"Right. Sorry."

"Do I need to make the chart again with the history of 90s alternative acts and how a lot were influenced in one way or another by a little band from Athens, Georgia? Hmm, I don’t have any paper, but it all started in 1980 when--"

"No. No, no,” she pats his chest. “That's okay, honey. Wait. Hold on. Oh my god, I've got it! Get ready to love me a lot in a minute."

He smiles at her. "I love you a lot right now. Even if you think Automatic for the People is a U2 album."

She ignores that, even if he is smirking adorably when he says it. "How about a roller skating birthday bash with an early '90s theme! We rent out the whole Pawnee Roller Rink and..." Leslie trails off, winking at him.

"Roller skating? As in roller skates?" His expression does nothing to hide his interest. His very interested interest. "We’d have a party at the roller rink and you’d be wearing skates all night?"

"Uh-huh," she gives him a sly grin. "Alllll niiiight. In skates. The purple roller skates."

Ben moans.

The last time she put on her purple skates for him was a couple of months ago and she was just wearing those and her underwear. They started making out in the living room almost immediately and he'd ended up bending her over the couch and fucking her like that.

It was so awesome.

"Oh my god. I do love you a lot," he confirms.

"Mmmmm." Even though she was just about to get out of bed and go make coffee and start working on a scrapbook for Ann, Leslie smiles into his kiss and starts giggling when Ben slowly begins to slide her pajama bottoms down.

"What? It's after 8:30 somewhere," he says, lightly nipping at the skin of her neck.

It's not his birthday month quite yet, but she's not complaining.

12. dog person or cat person?

Dog person, but I do truly love cats and am planning to get one when I graduate!

18. what’s your patronus?

Pottermore said I’m a buzzard, which like.. what the fuck? I like to think I’m an elephant. 

30. pick one of your favorite quotes.

This is from Everything Is Illuminated, which is my favorite book: “If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller's felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn't exist, and I have tried everything that does.”

Ship you're curious about:

I feel like I don’t have an answer for this, unless it means like, ship you saw from a fandom you’re not a part of but it looks nice. I would say Jake/Amy from Brooklyn 99. I never watched past season 1, and I know I’m too lazy to go back, but I wish I could for that ship.

Ship that you find most sexy:

I don’t think I will ever consume as much smut for any ship as I have for Ben/Leslie

Ship that you find cute but don't ship:

Ohhhh so controversial tbh, and I do think they go past “cute”, but Steve/Peggy. I totally completely get it, I think they’re so lovely in the first Cap, and its tragic what happened. But I’m okay with it, I really loved Peggy with Daniel on the show, and watching her process losing Steve on the show just made me feel like, I’m okay with it. I don’t hang onto that ship in any major way.

replied to your post: “So, I’ve been thinking about this all day since talking w/...”

tho personally i lean towards Ben being a dem, I can get on board with this independent thing. (except no way he voted for pence I WONT BELIEVE IT)

Oh crap, I forgot Pence was from Indiana! Okay, yeah, no way he voted R there ;-)

Alright, Ben definitely has some issues that are important to him and that trump (hahahaha) being fiscally conservative!
