"The government had no right to interfere with Leslie's private life in the first place. The media had absolutely no right to parade her love life around town-calling it a "scandal"-as if it were anyone's business but her own. And her pansy-ass campaign managers certainly had no right to punish Leslie for daring to fall in love. It violates everything he believes in."

Ahh perfect Ron.

And the Ben and Leslie one was great, because it just makes so much sense. Why the rule is in place. Why Ben never had a chance of getting out of it with his job. Just excellent stuff.

The Ben/Leslie fic was so sweet. In my head-canon both of them had a lot of oh-God-what-have-we-done moments of panic before calming down and realizing that it was worth it, and inevitable. Your Ben voice feels very authentic.

The Ron fic is love, and I adore this line:

Ron's mustache twitches as a deep rage builds in his chest that he normally reserves for people who restrict his access to meat and/or his ex-wives.

LOL, so perfect.

Loved both of these, but especially the first one - you get inside Ben's head really well :-)

Ben is seriously the cutest thing ever in this fic. Also loved ROn. He cares more than he wants to admit!!

These are both darling, but I especially love your second one. Ron's mustache twitches as a deep rage builds in his chest that he normally reserves for people who restrict his access to meat and/or his ex-wives. is a line that made my life, though Ron's Ann thoughts are right up there in terms of favorites. That scene in 4x10 was so perfect, just lovely, and I'm glad we got to see Ron, here, organizing the whole thing.
