Why this must be read: Back when Suits qualified for Yuletide and Donna didn't have a listed last name on AO3, this character study of Donna was written. Some things in this fic have been Jossed by now, but it's still a good insight into Donna's likes and thought processes through movies. There's even some backstory that doesn't involve Harvey!



Donna loved everything about Amadeus. She adored the period costumes, with the wigs and the makeup. She absorbed every detail; this was not the Mozart that Mrs. White taught her about in piano lessons. But Amadeus. taught her was the concept of character acting.

After she left the theatre, in her mind, she was Constanze. Donna never understood why the character meant so much to her, but for weeks after she left the theatre, Donna busied herself with looking like, walking like, talking like...with being a lady.

Of course, the Constanze phase passed. But her love of character didn’t.
