i don’t understand the lack of harvey centric hurt/comfort fics like how do you not take this man with walls around his heart as high and sturdy as the ivy tower he has made a home for himself in so no one could hurt him anymore and also so he could protect the ones he loves — because he loves and he cares so deeply and so violently, he doesn’t know what to do with it and neither do his people because they’re so ready to believe the mask they can’t even see anymore because he’s so high up and untouchable. how do you not take this man with his fragile walls that are so ready to be torn down, this man who is so scared of being alone, this man who yells that people don’t leave him — and this man who, when they do, stands frozen to the spot because his world is so frail it might as well be made of glass. and glass is useful to watch those you love but it breaks so easily — and it’s a good thing you can still watch your people through broken glass but up here the winds are cold and relentless and your people won’t hear you when you ask for help.
how do you not take harvey specter, the cockiest son of a bitch in new york city who has it all because he worked for it, who came from nothing and worked his way up, whom people are so ready and willing to beat and betray because they see his name as a trophy without knowing that he cares so deeply that it’s his heart on the line more than his name. how do you not take harvey fucking specter and make him wonder if any of this is even worth it. how do you not take this man and inflict pain and betrayal upon his fragile little heart — fragile, because he had to fend for himself from such a young age, he doesn’t know how to ask for help anymore.
how do you not inflict pain upon him because he can take it and he will take it and he takes it and he takes it — until he can’t anymore; but even then he will, because he is harvey specter, and the world knows. he can take it. and he has to.
How it feels remembering that no one thought anything of Tony showing signs of being suicidal in iron man 2 because he just “acted like that all the time”
what we needed in suits was filler episodes. Like wdym we had no silly stuff like christmas or beach days of the characters together 😔
Steve, gardening: Hey, can you bring me the hoe?
Thor: Yeah, sure.

Thor: Here you go.

Tony: Why am I here?
things ppl say to harvey
Harvey may have forgiven his family but I sure haven't. especially marcus. How is he going to blame harvey for "tearing the family apart" when it was his mother who cheated 💀💀 ungrateful losers all of them.
I'm sorry, but him continuing to blame himself for ruining the family for years together??? HARVEY SPECTER GET BEHIND ME. It was completely valid for him to cut them off. I can't even imagine how he survived in that toxic environment for so long.
This isn't to say his mother wasnt regretful of what she did and I do acknowledge that they patched things up but those flashback episodes make me so mad
Sometimes I imagine that Ned had made up a completely different story about Jon like he was the warded son of a fallen friend or something and had even planned to let Cat in the know someday if they came to trust each other enough
But then he brought baby Jon in and Cat immediately saw the resemblance and froze but wanted to start her marriage on the right foot by giving her new husband a way out because that's what a good wife does isn't it so she went "oh... is that a... nephew of yours, my lord?"
And Ned immediately panicked like NO. NOPE. NOT A NEPHEW. I SEE WHY YOU MIGHT THINK THAT BUT IT'S NOT. IT'S, UH, MY SON. THAT I MADE. WITH ANOTHER WOMAN. LIKE THE ADULTERER I AM. SILLY OLD NED THE ADULTERER THAT'S ME.
