Why this must be read: The thing I probably like best about this pairing in general is that it isn't easy; there's a goodly amount of emotional work to do to write it convincingly. What I like about this story is that you can find that work here. The occasional anger and violence that could boil up between these two is satisfyingly dealt with rather than simply elided here, for instance. On top of that, I like the surprising detail of telling the story from Kaylee's perspective. This works well, and gives a poignantly conflicted feeling to the whole thing. Also, the voices are wonderfully strong and clear.

Author's Summary: Peter had never known Neal to use drugs, but that didn't change the fact that Neal was shaking apart in front of him.

Why this must be read:

“Neal needed to rest and feel safe, and Peter needed to make that happen.” - That's what this fanfiction is all about. Drugged!Neal, as adorable as that was on the show, it's just too cute in this fanfiction, and Peter tries his best to take care of a scared, confused and drugged!Neal. Neal's confused state comes across very well and his delusions are frightening and well written. On top of that, this fanfiction also includes some Neal & Peter snuggling, which again makes for a very cute scene.

07:56 pm Harvey Specter Doesn't Do Gay Panic by thatotherperv (explicit)
ETA: 12/23, 2 am. GUYS I AM SO, SO SORRY. LJ crashed as I was writing my post, and I didn't realize it until it was too late. To make things worse, I work nights, so I had to leave for work before the site was back up and I had a chance to make sure everything was ok. I really, really apologize for any inconvenience this caused; I did everything in  my power to fix it before I left.

GOD I'M SO EMBARRASSED. 

Ok, so here's the actual version of tonight's rec. >_<

Fandom: SUITS
Pairing:  Harvey/Mike
Length: 9500ish words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] thatotherperv
Author Website: AO3 profile
Why this must be read:
I'm a sucker for a sexual identity crisis in fic. I really am. I'm even more of a sucker for fics where Mike calls Harvey out on something.

Needless to say, I was a very happy camper after I read this fic.
