Video;

[Harvey is leaned toward the camera and is giving it a sarcastic smile.]

You know, Initiative, you really should have asked me to dinner before you took me back to your place.

If Donna Paulsen or Mike Ross are here, get your asses to 305. If anyone else from Pearson Hardman is here, or if anyone recognizes the name Harvey Specter from home, let me know.

Listen, I’m not staying here because I’m happy or because I agree with you. But I’m staying. For a while. And if I don’t get a meeting with someone high up in the Initiative soon, I’m going to be angry. And you wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.

[He drums his fingers on the coffee table in front of him before leaning back against the couch. It’s easier to see what he’s wearing- jeans and a t-shirt -now that he’s sitting back. He’s obviously made himself home in his unit, and looks at ease.]

Now that that’s out of the way, I’ll introduce myself. Harvey Specter. Lawyer and Senior Partner at Pearson Hardman. [Of course he’s throwing out those titles.] I’m going to need help finding the best places in Exsilium. Anyone interested in a drink or grabbing a bite to eat?

[And if any roomies are around, Harvey is spread out on the couch in the living room, fiddling with his tablet. He’s mostly avoided everyone up till now, but he spends a good part of the day on the couch.]

[You don't even know the half of it. Blaine is in slacks and a button down, and he smiles at the other man.]

Well, well. If it isn't the Senior Partner of Pearson Hardman. Should I curtsy?

[guntoyourhead]

He smirks. Sarcastically:] I'm so flattered you paid attention. I can't wait to write all about it in my diary.

So, where to?

[strategic_guile]

Make sure to put a lot of hearts around my name. [Flips his hair. Yep. Walking towards the door.]

There's a place nearby. [Insert random name + description here.]

[guntoyourhead]

Mhm. Sure. This better be a classy place. I'm not getting into any bar fights.

[He follows him and catches up to him.]

[strategic_guile]

You won't get into any bar fights. [Lifts his hands in a shrug.]

Classy, that's something else totally different. Your expectations? Dial them back 10 notches. Maybe they'll be more realistic.

[guntoyourhead]

[He rolls his eyes.] This place just gets better and better.

[strategic_guile]

They give us 500 dollars a month. [Dryly. He can spend that in an hour.] Like I said. Expectations.

[They're out on the street and walking. Blaine points out a few places.] If you have an iron stomach and you're broke, eat there. Last resort only.

[guntoyourhead]

[He rolls his eyes. His time is worth way more than that, Initiative!!

He walks along beside him. He came from the bottom. He'll survive.]

Noted. What did you do before you came here?

[strategic_guile]

[He hoped he never saw the perfectly parted hair and expensive suits of lawyers; that's what he did for a living. He smiled.]

I'm a Pharmaceutical Sales Rep for Pfizer & Co.

[guntoyourhead]

...Really? [That just seems so... normal.]

[strategic_guile]

Why that incredulous look? [Mock offense.]

[guntoyourhead]

Well, it just seems like such a normal job for such a ...[Be nice. Try to make friends. He gestures at him.] you.

[strategic_guile]

[Blaine just laughs.] Jesus, trying to cover up what you were going to say just made it worse.
