Somarium/Outdated ❥ Voicemail;

You've reached the voicemail of Donna Paulsen. I am currently unavailable, but if you leave your name and a brief description of what you need, I will get back to you just as soon as I can.

If you have business with Harvey Specter, please state your business, and I will get back to you sooner.

Thank you.

[There's the sound of Harvey clearing his throat on the other end.]

[Yeah she doesn't even have to think about it.]

I know.

[Just. Light-hearted.]

Your powers have reached terrifying heights here.

[At least he's not questioning it.]

Sometimes you're just really predictable.

[She knows you won't like that but she's also right.]

Blue tie--it's a good color for him, by the way, very fitting.

[Huffing just a little bit over here.]

Very good, you know what color his eyes are.

Yes, puppy dog blue.

[Don't tell her that's not a color.

She just hums, though. As amusing as the banter is, they both have things to do most of the time.]

Was that all?

[She's touched that Harvey finally thought to inform her. Sort of.]

That's all.

[There's a pause on Harvey's end.]

It might be a thing.

[And you know his track record with things pretty well, Donna.]

[...

...

...]

A thing.

[Yeah she does know and she doesn't really want this ship to sink if she's going to be on it, jsyk.]

I hope you're not asking me to inquire even more into your sex life because i really don't need the sordid details--

No Donna, he's not Scotty.

[There may be something murmured here along the lines of "At least Mike doesn't have it in him to double cross me."]

[...ha.]

I know. It's a different sort of thing too.

Exactly. Don't treat him any differently. You mother him too much as it is.

Excuse me?

[Um what did you just say???]

I am definitely not the mother in this situation, or any situation involving you.

[Season 2 would say otherwise but that hasn't happened hear so Harvey shrugs. Not like you can see that.]

Should I have picked another metaphor on how this changes nothing?

Any metaphor that makes me out to be older than it should ought to be tossed out right now.

[:V

Ahem.]

I'm aware of exactly what it changes.

Do you feel threatened in any way? Am I sensing some hostility in your tone?

[This would be an impressive eyebrow raise if you could see it.]

Is Mike going to start taking all of your calls?

No. But you know...

[Do you really want him to talk about his feelings?]

[...if it's bothering him. H u h.]

I'm not worried. You wanna know why?

[Dead silence.]

[Don't be a baby, Harvey.]

Two things.

A, you still need me, and the thought that I would be threatened by Mike is hilarious, I'm not even going to lie.

B, and far more importantly, feelings are good for you, Harvey.

[it's okay to have them.]

[See last picture for his face right now. Except less "Don't take Mike away" to "I don't want feelings." Not like you can see it, but you can hear it in his voice.]

Is that all? I didn't realise you needed feelings to have fun.

[Deal, Harvey. Anyway, she knows precisely what face he's wearing.]

You're moping too much for this to just be some fun. And your tie was looser than usual.

[Which points to feelings.]
