UM HI THIS IS JESS. AKA MISS-FITTZ ON TUMBLR.

And I left an actual semi-coherent comment in your ask box. Actually it was not at all coherent, but it was longer. I just have to say here that: BEN IS SUCH A GENTLEMAN IN THIS AND IT JUST ASPLODES MY OVARIES ALL OVER THE PLACE OKAY.

OMGGGG I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT PART!!!

this was so in character, and not just for Ben and Leslie, but for everyone (especially Tom!!) and I was laughing throughout (at the humorous parts of course!). you captured BL's relationship perfectly and their feelings. It makes total sense that Leslie would be confused by Ben and how she feels about him and of course we all know that Ben is one smitten kitten.

you are really amazing at this, so I hope you continue writing more after you are done with this fic. I tried to take breaks throughout reading this so as to savor it. I didn't want it to end!!

I think my favorite part was, “Oh god, stop it please,” he mutters. The mere idea of trying to scoop her out of the seat is almost too much for him to bear.
it literally made me want to die in a good way. I got the butterflies in my stomach *sigh*

oh btw, this is human-disaster on tumblr ;)

Okay, I thought I'd devoured every single piece of Ben/Leslie fic out there, but then I found THIS! Oh my goodness, this. It's sweet and wonderful and perfect and I really really cannot wait for the next part!

Following your tumblr (I'm sergiovalente) and reading this fic were two very good decisions :) Can't wait for part two!

There is more right? What did she make him? Please more?

omg, Heath. I don't even know what to say. I have been reading a lot of Ben/Leslie fic lately, and I think this is my favorite. (And I've yet to read the second and third parts!) Your use of adjectives and similes just really adds great imagery to this story! You have everyone in perfect character. I can literally imagine this as an actual episode! Ahh, basically, I can't wait to read more. Ben is just the cutest, most perfect gentleman ever, and that's portrayed perfectly in this story. Well done!

(BTW, this is Katie (withyoutotheend) from Tumblr! :D )
