I've been an awful good girl this year

[magisterequitum]

Favorite Characters: I adore Ainsley. But I do love everyone else as well. I don't really have anyone that I dislike. That said, I also really love Sam, Josh, Donna, Charlie, POTUS (both), Leo, Toby, CJ, Abbey.

'Ships that sail for you: Sam/Ainsley, Josh/Donna, Josh/Amy, POTUS/FLOTUS (both sets), Toby/Andy, CJ/Danny. Pretty much any of those work

untitled as of yet (tag for "Night Five"); Sam/Ainsley, G -- Part 1 of 2

“I fixed it.”

Ainsley looks up from her desk to find Sam Seaborn standing in her office doorway. His voice is triumphant, and he holds what she assumes to be an updated draft of the U.N. General Assembly speech in his hands.

“You fixed it?” she asks, skeptically tilting her head to the side.

“I fixed it.” A pause; then, with less certainty. “I think I fixed it.”

“Okay, well let’s see it then.”

She motions for the copy of the speech, which he steps forward somewhat hesitantly to relinquish it into her waiting hands. He hovers around the edge of her desk; although she’d never admit this, usually she finds his displays of nervous energy almost infuriatingly charming. Tonight, however, there’s a speech to read and policy to check, and Ainsley can’t concentrate when he’s just there like that

About forty minutes later, it is Ainsley’s turn to stand in Sam’s office door, speech in hand, and announce her presence. She waits for a few moments, however, as she watches him enthralled in what appears to be a very intense game of Solitaire

ANON, who I might know (if not... awkward),

I love you. Seriously, this is fabulous. There are so many parts to love and pick out. The dialogue is so great. Lipstick Feminism! Cupcakes! Celia and her crazy self and no one wanting to deal with her! Solitaire because of course he does do that. They all do that when they think no one is watching. The dress that she should always wear!

THANK YOU! ♥

Awww. This is adorable. I love all the dialogue, and Sam's second-guessing and his concern about offending her. It's really lovely, all of it. <3
