hey leverage gang. i'm writing an absolutely batshit insane crossover. it's not a mega-multi-crossover but the thing i'm crossing it over with is, at least on the surface, a completely different vibe from leverage. i know nothing about the leverage reboot but i know that the og series will let me:

draw Grief-Stricken Angry Father Who Went Depresso Mode, Then Turned His Anger On The System That Killed His Child And Eventually Ended Up With At Least One Coworker Who Put Up With His Bullshit Until He Went Too Far (At Which Point He Got The Sense Slapped/Punched Into Him) parallels

addendum to the last: the character getting paralleled also ends up in a roommate situation with their ex-coworker after the fact, so. that's another piece of evidence that the venn diagram is almost a circle

make Chaos (K-OS? i read some of the spinoff books a while back and the spelling was inconsistent so i'm not really clear on that) relevant to the plot bunny at hand

go HAM with the fact that apparently each season of the show had a theme and s2 was "family," which makes me giggle evilly inside because that fits SO nicely with the crossover idea. client comes to the crew to get (essentially) his kids back. they end up grabbing an extra kid who'd been stuck there longer. this is the kid who was thought to be dead by the character getting nate parallels. nate will Have A Time with this realization <3

however, leverage has always been floating in the back of my brain without any real, concrete timeline. moreau is in here somewhere with the time nate wemt to jail between seasons, the time sophie got switched out with tara for a chunk of a season, and miscellaneous episode plots, but i have no idea which order they happened in. like none. and i don't want to just go "it happens sometime in s2-s4" because. that's a MASSIVE chunk of the timeline. that'd be like saying "oh yeah i learned to make authentic chicago pizza somewhere around here" and gesturing to the entire midwest on a map. i don't want to reference things that don't happen yet.

so. are there any potential places in the timeline of s2-s4 that i could conceivably cram a fanfic into?

and for long-time followers of my own bullshit: yes, this is still more stick figure brainrot <3
