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 wow, this is beautiful and I need more of it before I explode from desire. Your descriptions are amazing and they absolutely make sense so don't fret dear.

LOL thanks for the much-needed reassurance! This is my first fic in this fandom, so I was nervous about characterization, and trying to convey the actual experience of synesthesia turned out to be WAY harder than I thought!

I'll update soon - try not to blow up in the meantime (I've never made someone a-splode before!)

I think my appreciation of this fic can be shown in the way I actually went "WHAT???" when I got to the end of this part and realized the other parts hadn't been posted yet (yeah, I really should read summaries more carefully). Color me SUPERBLY DISAPPOINTED. I really hope the rest will be posted soon. This was SO good. The imagery was so lush and vivid (I mean, WOW), and your characterization was great. I really hope the editing process on the other chapters doesn't take too long. ;) But, honestly (and this is something I don't think I've ever said), I think this chapter is lovely enough that I'd happily re-read it again - more than once - even if you never finished it. It was just that lovely.

Wow, thank you! You made me blush. :) The rest should be posted relatively shortly. It's completely written, just in need of editing. I can't promise I won't randomly decide to overhaul a whole chapter of something (I'm annoying like that) but I'll do my best to get it posted in a timely manner. :)

YAY! *claps hands with glee*

This is awesome. I love the H/M/D watching baseball and the banter between Donna and the guys is right on target.

Can't wait to read more!

[phreakycat]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked the Donna banter - I adore her and really wanted to do her justice in fic form!

Adore the emotion in the story, and the accuracy in which you're using the synthaesia. (Question: did he have crossover eating the popcorn?) Very much looking forward to more of this!

[phreakycat]

Thanks! I hadn't written the scene as Mike having any crossover with the popcorn (I've written him as a sound-color and a lexical-gustatory synesthete, because that's what I have experience with) but the lovely thing about fanfic is that you can choose to read it any way you like! :)

Thanks so much! I appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. :)
