Somebody Who Outdrew You by Jess (R)

Fandom: SPORTS NIGHT
Pairing: Dana/Casey
Author on LJ: circusgirl
Author Website: Too Early for the Circus
Why this must be read:

This is another complex look at Dana and Casey, another good reason why it wouldn't have worked out. Dana and Casey can't stop themselves from testing each other to see if it's truly love - and in the process, kill any chance they might have had at making a relationship work.

You don't see me as your equal, Casey. You've never seen me as your equal. You see me as that girl in Texas, with frosted eye-shadow and a black eye and a laugh that was too loud. You respect me in here, but the minute we step outside, you're better because you're the man."

"That's in your head, woman."

"Right there!" She raised her hands. "What was that?"

"What?"

"Woman. Woman. Why don't you just drag me around the office by my hair?"

"Do you even hear yourself when you talk?"
