ohmygod, this is just... I don't think there are actual words...

The progression here just works so well, each moment bleeding into the next in subtle yet profound ways. The contrast of her unraveling when it comes to her dad against his was especially strong.

Even more, the feeling of their connectedness - of how 'all in' they really are - is bright and warm here.

She has missed him, missed her best friend, and she didn’t realize how much she needed him until he was here, standing in her parent’s kitchen with the mud from the driveway dirtying his perfect shoes.
Love the level of detail here. It's enough that she has missed him, but that she's noticing the little things like the mud on his shoes makes it that much more powerful.

Harvey knows what she’s doing before she even does it – knows she goads him into arguments just to keep him from retreating too far into himself, and he is so profoundly thankful for her in ways he can’t even begin to articulate properly
Not only is this articulated wonderfully, but it's a great observation about how they work. It's very true to their dynamic.

Ok, last thing, I adored the note you left us on. The addition of now just strikes the perfect balance. Nicely done ♥
