Why this must be read: At first, this fic seems like a future fic where Mike gets a promotion while Harvey gets a new assistant, an OC named Kelly. Then this fic introduces an element not seen in most real world canons: sex pollen. The firm's infected with it and must deal with it accordingly. I really love the way agatestones handled this [livejournal.com profile] hc_bingo prompt for Suits; it's a cracky, yet thrilling, read.



"Isn't that assault by deception? Why isn't this Bilzerian guy up on felony charges yet?"

Kelly would make a great prosecutor. That was part of why Mike had picked her: her ability to remind Harvey of himself. He told her: "Yet is the operative word. With this chemical report, he'll probably go down on federal trafficking charges too."

"I am really not clear on his endgame." She gestured at the file. "If it was a sugar pill, sure, fine, scam late-night couch-desperadoes. But mind-altering substances?"

Mike flipped forward to the affidavits filed by the defendant. Teddy Bilzerian's counterclaims were outlandish, grandiose, and paranoid, the moreso because they were neatly typed and spelled properly and vetted by a lawyer. "Uh -- this is not a guy with an endgame in mind."

"I guess it's true," said Kelly, and shook her head. "They never think they'll get caught."

"I guess," Mike said, as she stood up to get back to work.
