I did a ~selective viewing of some Suits episodes to do a refresher before jumping in and finally watching the last season... I'm determined to do it because I want to see where a lot of these people's stories went (Louis, Louis/Sheila, Samantha, Katrina, Alex...).

But just the premiere has made more aware than ever of how much I LOATHE Donna. And Darvey. Neither can be on screen without me making this exact face:

[ID: the queen on Brave making a disgusted involuntary expression at her food’s taste.]

I hate her Karma Houdini ass more than ever istg. She massively screws up like once per season, yet nothing happens to her as a consequence, because she's Awesome TM and people aren't allowed to disagree or dislike her, ever (that investigator who refused to work for the film when Donna was a bitch to her and then refused to be convinced to talk in their favor... where are you babe ilu. Same to Anita Gibbs and oh so many

delightful antagonists. Hardman deserves to ruin her life for what she did to Robert, period. The bf she just cheated on should get to be a bitch at the very least).

What's worse, her last stunt not only didn't have negative consequences for her, but it caused MY MAN ROBERT ZANE to be disbarred and damage his reputation (likely irreparably, though I’m hoping that’s not the case and I’m going to choose to believe it even if it’s post-series) to save her and Harvey's asses.This in turn harmed the firm that Alex and Samantha just put their names on, hurting Samantha’s reputation as Robert’s right hand, and caused Louis to lose control of the firm. But none of them are allowed to even be mad at her for it, because It’s Donna. Samantha is within her fucking rights to tear into her but she must make peace with her; it must be understood that Louis worships the ground she walks on (although thankfully lately it’s just words, as he relies far more on literally everyone else -Sheila, Katrina, his therapist, Alex, Robert, Harvey...), Robert can’t be mad and instead must be seeking ~redemption, etc.

One thing that made me FURIOUS though, it’s her call to Rachel at the beginning of the episode. Rachel, her so-called closest friend, and the daughter of the man whose life she just ruined. And she calls her and leaves a message in her voicemail (which I’m choosing to believe as Rachel not picking up because as far as she’s concerned, they’re not on speaking terms), to cheerfully inform her that’s she’s finally worn down the man she obsessively obsessed about for over a decade to fuck her a second time. Hoo-fucking-ray. What the fuck is wrong with her that she calls Rachel to tell her that, right now??

Which leads me to what I can’t stand about the situation. It’s not like the show is pretending that Donna and Harvey are the Ultimate Romance, the writing is consistent and all (LOL at the fact that Louis caught them the morning after, saw Harvey in last night’s clothes... and thought they’d being working all night because the idea is so unthinkable lmao. And some narrative choices are VERY ON POINT, like the fact that things happen in Donna’s appartment and not Harvey’s -where everything about his romantic life has been front and center-, or how Harvey isn’t even allowed to be mad that Donna was still involved with another man without his knowledge when they slept together, something that to the Harvey we knew in the show, would’ve made him feel like shit and angry as hell), but the narrative of Harvey Finally Sees How Awesome Donna Is And That She’s Always Right And Should Be In Charge of Every Facet of His Life... jfc. I hate it here!!

They are living proof of the fact that I hate the Relentless Pursuer trope no matter what genders involve it, I guess, but at what cost. AT WHAT COST I SAY DDDD: I feel terrible for him ugh.

Fall From Grace, Pt. 7

Bryan Kneef x Reader. Fandom: The Good Fight. Reference: S4, E.4, “The Gang is Satirized and Doesn’t Like It.” CW: Angst, language, more than slightly implied masturbation (female).

AN: Our lovely REE was on The Good Fight for all of 3 minutes so I am taking lots of liberties. I am obsessed with the anti-Barba. He was just delicious.

AN2: So his name is Bryan Kneef. Bryan with a Y. I have made corrections on A03 but I haven’t made the corrections here yet. Going through A03 it was 300+ instances of the name. So for now, going forward I will use the correct spelling here. Eventually I will make corrections to the earlier parts.

AN3: Crossover with my other ride-or-die show, Suits. If you like snarky asshole legal procedural shows and expensive suits, this show is for you. It is amazing. Highly recommend. I loved Harvey Specter and Travis Tanner before Rafael Barba. Shhh...

AN4: Special shout-out to @mgarner1227 for being my beta and catching all of my sleep deprived typos. Thank you!!

WC: 2347ish

You chose to take the “L” home and you blasted your music through your headphone as the subway lurched.

You wiped your eyes, smearing your already worn eye make-up. You felt pathetic and hated yourself – you hated how Bryan turned you into a lovesick blubbering mess. And what was worse was that you still wanted him – you wanted everything with him. He could snap his fingers and you would come running. He offered you a taste of a world you wanted to be part of and now that you had a taste, it was all that you wanted. Bryan’s words echoed in your head. ‘You need to move on. I already have.’

You wondered if was worth your salt to even stay – your resume was impeccable. You had no roots or loyalties to Chicago. You opened the browser on your phone and scrolled through Indeed, looking at the current paralegal openings. One in particular caught your eye. You knew an old college friend who worked at the firm. Biting your lip, you decided to go for it and quickly sent an e-mail her. Then you emailed the office to tell them you had a personal emergency and needed to take time off.

You fidgeted in your seat out of nervousness. You chewed on a pinkie nail as you scrolled through your phone. Your nerve-endings were on fire. “Y/N!” a voice called out.

You looked up and smiled brightly. “Rachel Zane! I mean Ross.” You corrected yourself.

Rachel smiled in return. “Zane-Ross. I hyphenated.” The petite brunette lawyer embraced you tightly. “How are you?”

“Alright. Can’t complain. How’s married life treating you?”

“Good. We were in Seattle for a bit and then we came back to New York. We’re too East Coast for the West Coast.” Rachel laughed. “Come on, I will give you a tour and then we can talk about the opening.”

You nodded, grabbing your oversized leather clutch. “Have you been to New York before?” Rachel asked as she led you through the halls of the corporate law firm.

“Uh, The Hamptons actually.” You replied. You felt your stomach knot in response.

“Ugh, The Hamptons are so nice. I need to go back out there.”

You smiled weakly. As you both turned the corner, your saw someone very familiar.

“Uncle Travis?” You cocked your head.

“Y/N?” The tall dark-haired man looked at you in surprise.

Rachel gave you a bugged eye look. “You know Travis Tanner – wait – he’s your uncle?”

You nodded. “Sort of – my dad’s best friend. He’s known me since I was a baby.”

“So if you have a connection to Smith and Devane, then what are you doing looking for a job at Pearson Specter?”

“Wait – you need a job? I can get you in at Smith and Devane.” Travis replied, embracing you in a hug. “What happened at STR Laurie or is it Boseman Lockhart? Did those assholes fire you? Who do I need to call?”

You raised your hand and shook your head. “It’s not like that. I need a fresh start. They don’t know I am looking.”

Travis nodded. “If you change your mind or if these clowns low ball you, let me know.” He looked at his watch. “Listen I gotta go. I am still in the city for one more day. Call me and we’ll do dinner. My treat.”

You nodded and waved goodbye, before turning back to Rachel. “Tour?”

Rachel nodded her head towards the hall. “Travis Tanner is our foe. Maybe we shouldn’t hire the enemy.”

“Foe?” You crinkled your nose in response. “I don’t know if I want to work at a law firm that has foes.”

Rachel laughed. “Come on – lets go.”

Two hours later, you walked out of the office building with a new job and a salary that blew your current out of the water.

‘New job, new life. He’s moved on. Now, I can too.’ You thought to yourself as you stepped off the curb to hail a cab.

“Y/N! Y/N!” You turned around and found Rachel running up to you.

“Hey! What’s up? Don’t tell me the offer was reneged.” You sighed.

“No – no, here’s my cell. Let’s catch up and celebrate when I am off work.” Rachel smiled brightly.

You smiled in return, as you took Rachel’s card. “Sounds perfect. I could blow off some steam.”

You stumbled into your hotel room. You had one too many drinks and the night got away from you. Stripping down to your underwear, you then collapsed onto your bed. You looked through your phone and came across Bryan’s name. You hadn’t had the heart to delete his name off your phone. Your finger hovered over the call button. You wanted to call him – to tell him off – to call him a coward.

You wanted to hear his voice.

What frustrated you most was that despite being deeply hurt, you wanted him back. You wanted one more night with him, one more touch. You hated that about him. You hated how weak he made you. He was reckless with your heart – you were a smart gal – you knew better. You also knew he could show up, snap his fingers, and you would come running back. With Bryan, your head was lost in the clouds.

Instead of calling, you decide to release your frustration. You jumped out of bed and rummaged through your suitcase for your battery operated boyfriend. You cheered to yourself as you found your purple vibrator and made your way back to the bed. You shimmied off your panties and pulled up the STR website. You settled on Bryan’s headshot, where he appeared stoic (and smoldering). You pretended it was Bryan touching you as you slipped the vibrator in between your legs. You stared at the picture of Bryan and focused on his lips, knowing how they felt on your own lips, on your skin, and on your most important parts.

You came quickly with Bryan’s name coming off your lips. As you regained your composure, you felt tears brim your eyes. With a groan, you slipped your underwear back on and decided to just go to bed.

“Fucking prick.” You mumbled, covering your face with a pillow.

---

Diane stormed into Bryan’s office, blowing right past the STR gatekeepers, who quickly followed her. “What did you do?” The blonde attorney demanded, her hands on her hips.

Bryan sighed, as he looked up from his computer. “Do what?” The gatekeepers popped in and Bryan gave them an annoyed look before waving them off.

“Care to explain as to why I received this resignation notice from Y/N?”

Bryan shut his laptop. “Wait – what? Y/N quit?”

“With no notice. She emailed me this.” Diane snapped, thrusting the resignation letter in Bryan’s face. Bryan scanned the letter.

Dear Ms. Lockhart: Please accept this letter as formal notice of my resignation from the position of Senior Supervising Paralegal with STR Laurie/ Boseman Lockhart effective immediately. I will arrange for my personal affects to be collected. Thank you for the opportunities I have been given during my time with the firm. I wish you and the firm well in the future.

Bryan’s heart sunk, but he didn’t let on that it affected him. “Why should I care? She’s not my girlfriend. She’s not…”

“I told you to break it off – not to ruin our lawsuit. She’s the best paralegal we have – had.”

“Her seat will be filled by close of business.” Bryan shrugged.

“That’s a cop out and you know it.”

Bryan scowled. “We have plenty of other paralegals. We’ll be fine.”

Diane’s eyes narrowed to slits before storming out.

The door slammed shut and Bryan swore. He looked over your resignation letter once more and crumpled the paper. “I can’t believe how badly I screwed it up.” Bryan muttered.

To Bryan, romance was bullshit. He had plenty of flings with women. He enjoyed fucking. He enjoyed the women leaving after – especially without drama. It was the perfect arrangement. But somehow, none could compare to you – not even close. He had to admit that he wanted your more than anything than he had ever wanted and that scared the shit out of him. Falling for you was the last thing he had ever wanted to do. At first, it was just raw sexual attraction. But then, after all of these passing months, he knew deep down you and him … it was kismet; you and him just worked.

He thought over that last time you were in his apartment, but before the fight. You had fallen asleep while reading a book. Carefully, he removed it and as he did so, your bookmark fell out. He picked it up and went to mark the page when what he read made him freeze.

Meet me on the edge of forever

Where your darkness melds with mine

And the missing part of our souls

Will find each other once again

[Mevlana Rumi]

Bryan was struck by words of the Persian poem. It spoke to him on some transcendent level. And then the next morning when you and him were intimate once more – it quickly dawned on him it that it was never like that before. It wasn’t just casual fucking. Not anymore.

Bryan could not deny it anymore. He wanted you – all of you – and he needed for you to know he was yours as well. And he did not care what it would take to get you back.

And with that, he made his way downstairs to where the associates worked.

Marissa looked up from her computer screen and cocked her head at her colleague, Caleb Garlin who was furiously typing away. She took a small pad and tossed it in his face in a futile attempt to get his attention.

Caleb ignored her, continuing to type. Another small pad was tossed in his face. Caleb winced. “Yes, ma’am?” Caleb asked the curly-haired investigator.

“You haven’t shaved.” Marissa noted.

“I was here all night. I got a special dispensation.” Caleb gritted.

“I’m bored. Entertain me.” Marissa replied. She looked down at her blouse and picked off a piece of imaginary lint.

“Want me to sing to you?” Caleb asked dryly, not bothering to look up at Marissa.

“No. Tell me a joke.”

“A man walks into a zoo. There is only a dog. It’s a shih-tzu.”

Marissa stared at Caleb blankly.

“Do you want me to exp-?”

“No.” Marissa dropped her head in her hands. “I am so bored!” She groaned. “Can you believe Y/N is leaving?”

“Not at all. I told Diane that Bryan was a prick. I hated being his associate. What Y/N saw in him is beyond me…”

“I think she was going for what was underneath…”

“I don’t want to think about his –"

“Caleb!” Bryan barked as he bounded down to the lower level of the firm. Marissa and Caleb both jumped in their seats.

Bryan’s eyes narrowed on Marissa. “You – you’re Y/N’s friend.”

“I have a name – it’s Marissa.” Bryan rolled his eyes at Marissa. “Yes, I am her friend. And you’re Bryan Kneef. Bryan with a Y.”

There was a pregnant pause and Bryan stared at Marissa. “That’s right.”

Marissa looked at Caleb. “The Y makes it so douchey honestly.” She replied, which resulted in a guffaw from Caleb.

“Excuse me?” Bryan sputtered. “I’m the top—”

“Yeah, yeah, I know who you are.” Marissa replied, turning fully to Bryan. She crossed her arms. “What do you want?”

“Y/N quit – you need to get her back.”

“Me?”

“I.” Brian corrected, through gritted teeth. “I need to get her back. Can you help me?”

“I don’t know – she’s pretty upset. She’s leaving to Pearson Specter.”

“In New York?”

“Last time I checked, that’s where they were situated at.” Marissa replied. Caleb chuckled low, earning him a glare from Bryan.

“When does she leave to New York?” Caleb asked.

“Soon. She told me she’s starting in two weeks.” Marissa replied. She looked back up at Bryan and stared at him, trying to get a read on him. “Do you love her?”

“I … I … care deeply.” Bryan replied, crossing his arms. “Are you going to help me or not?”

Marissa looked at Caleb. “All this fussing to say that you care? That to me sounds like love. Doesn’t it?”

Bryan didn’t answer.

You were exhausted from your flight from New York. The flight was terrible – caught in a storm the whole time. The turbulence made you nauseated and brought on a raging migraine. Your cab pulled up to your apartment and you slipped the driver a few bills, insisting he keep the change. The driver helped you with your suitcase and you bid adieu, before wearily making it up the stairs to your apartment.

The sight of flowers in front of your door made you stop. You sighed and picked up the small card.

Little birdie told me you’re not really allergic. – BK

Your cellphone buzzed in that moment, causing you to jump. It was a text from Marissa.

Marissa: Don’t hate me. Bryan knows you’re leaving to New York.

You swore loudly to no one in particular before lugging your suitcase in. You rested it along the doorway and then went back to pick up the flowers. Buckeye belle peonies – dark red and lush against vibrant greenery in an ornate vase. You easily counted over a dozen of the dark red flowers as you set the vase on your counter space. You touched a petal gently, thinking of the myth of how peonies came to be, when Apollo flirted with the nymph, Paeonia.

You paced the length of the apartment, twirling the card in between your fingers. You made your way into the kitchen and reached into your freezer, pulling out the ice cold vodka that resided in there. You placed the card down and opened the bottle, taking a long swig. You shuddered, near gagging as the liquid burned down your throat. You threw the bottle back into the freezer.

Reaching into your pocket, you pulled out your phone and quickly texted Bryan.

Why don’t you be a man about it and get out of my life? Let me get over you the way you've gotten over me. And nothing you will say or do will stop me from leaving. I picked NYC because the man who doesn’t love me isn’t there.

You paused, unable to continue. You took a deep breath and highlighted the text. You debated deleting it all.

You were worn and exhausted. Your last nerve was hanging by a thread.

You hit send.

TBC.
