Fic: "Lit Up" 1/4, Suits, Harvey/Mike NC-17

[phreakycat]

Harvey invites Mike to watch the Yankees game at his condo in October.

“You've been working hard,” Harvey tells him (and the spark of approval in his eyes warms Mike in a way that is mildly embarrassing but oh, so satisfying).  “Bring the Killerman briefs, we can proof them during commercial breaks.  No need to spend another weekend in the office

Oh my god. I love this. Your descriptions are so wonderful I can see them.

Thanks so much! You get first-comment pie :). *hands you pie*

Wow, this is so fantastic. I don't think I'll ever really GET synesthesia because it's one thing to understand it in theory but it's so out of my realm of experience that it's hard to imagine just...how someone could experience senses simultaneously like that. BUT the way you describe Mike's experience is so lush and evocative, I was totally pulled in. The bit where he says Harvey's name over and over to himself to experience the taste of it...guh, that was unbelievably sexy for such a seemingly innocuous detail.

Can't wait to read more of this! Great start :D

I know, right? I am so with you on that point.

Thanks so much! That's very kind feedback. I'm glad the descriptions worked for you (I was nervous about them!). Synesthesia is definitely hard to try to describe to someone else, and I'm afraid I'm not doing it justice! But I'm happy you're enjoying it (especially Mike saying Harvey's name, that was a favorite bit of mine to write LOL). :)

I promise to update soon!

That's so funny that Harvey's voice is red for you! It's strange, I don't have synesthesia anymore technically speaking, but sometimes it's like I can tell what color a sound would be if I still did. That probably doesn't make any sense, but I'm not sure how else to explain it!

Thanks so much for the kind feedback. :) Out of curiosity, what color are Mike and Donna's voices for you?

[phreakycat]

Thank you! :)

Ahhhhhh! *flails incoherently* That was so beautiful and amazing that any comment I leave will NOT do it justice! Suffice to say I shall refresh every five seconds till it updates =3

[phreakycat]

Aw, thanks! *pets you until you stop flailing* Don't wear out your F5 button - I promise to update later tomorrow or the day after at latest. :) I'm shooting for tomorrow, but I don't think my Calc professor will take 'sorry, I was editing fanfic' as an acceptable excuse for turning in my paper on Bezier curves late LOL.

[modern_elegy]

I solemnly swear that I... will be patient xD I think editing fanfiction should be an acceptable excuse ALWAYS. You're bringing happiness to people- what's awesomer than that? :D
