DISCLAIMER: Not mine. I promise I'm only borrowing them and will return them to their rightful owners whenever they ask for them back. My imagination took a flight of fancy.....my bank account stayed empty. (Seriously, the cast of SVU belong to Dick Wolf and I'm only borrowing them for some free daydreaming that I wrote down.).
AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is fluff – I repeat, FLUFF! Anyone expecting serious fic should wander off to something else.

"He didn't?"
"He did."
"Straight from the courthouse?"
"Yes"
"Everyone?"
"Prosecution and Defence Counsels, defendant, Jury, Judge, the lot!" confirmed Alex.
"And you couldn't go and change first?"
"No."
"You poor baby," cooed Olivia supportively.
"I know. Can you arrest him?"
"I don't think so Sweetie - I know you know the law better than I do, but I don't think that's a crime."
"But they were Jimmy Choos!" protested Alex, visibly upset.
"I know sweetie, I know. But I really can't arrest Judge Harman for criminal damage to a pair of shoes, no matter how soft the leather or delicate the heel...." explained Olivia seriously, rubbing her hand in soothing circles over her lover's back.
"But they're ruined! I'll never be able to wear them again! They're damaged, and it was a crime…" Alex was actually pouting now.
"I know sweetie, I know. But what would Liz Donnelly say if I asked for a prosecutor in the case of Judge Harmon vs the City?"
"She'd say about bloody time, he's insane!"
"Maybe, but still, I can't arrest a Judge for making you take the court case to the crime scene.....even if your Jimmy Choos were wrecked because the perp chose a chicken coop to hide the evidence!"
