Why this must be read:
Although I was skeptical at first, Michael and Ben grew on me as a pairing when I saw how well they got along together. This story is set early in their relationship, and this Ben has a bit of an edge that I like. Canon Ben comes off as too saintly sometimes; I like it when he's human.

Ooh, excellent choice. Micheal/Ben is one of my favorite pairings, and too often it gets either to sappy, or too Brian focused. This piece is just harsh and real and lovely. Thank you for reccing it.

You're welcome. :)

I like the realism of this story, too. And I thought the Ben voice was particualrly good.
