💥 NCSWIC 🔥 The Warmongering Crime Syndicate 🤔

[anartisticnerd]

I love Leverage: Redemption but a Leverage 2.0 would have been so cool. I want a spinoff where the Leverage team trains apprentices. Obviously we keep Breanna as Hardison's. Parker canonically teaches crime to every child she meets so literally any kid would do.

But for Eliot, I want him to have a teenage girl as his apprentice. Someone who is a total opposite of him at the beginning of the story, then it is slowly revealed to the viewers, and Eliot himself, that this kid is a lot more like him than he would expect. It starts with things like her avoiding people's help when hurt, her having an easily riled temper, or her picking up some subconscious habit from him like his signature hair flip or "it's a very distinctive..." line.

Also, there are many obligatory digs from Hardison about Eliot's new mini-me. Breanna and Eliot's apprentice agree their mentors are idiots and are always talking trash about them.

Or just have his apprentice be Molly.

Indefensible. Epitome of corruption.

New fic release coming

Can three quotes capture your attention enough to read a SuperCorp crime family AU?

1 The Luthors have always owned this city and none of them have ever spoken to the press directly, until now.

2 “She won’t fall because I’ll be there to catch her.”

3 “Now, you’re officially mine.”

Title: Ember in the Abyss

Rating: M

Warnings: Graphic descriptions of violence, death, homophobia, toxic masculinity, ableism, lesbian sex, mention of childhood trauma in a group home, depictions of torture, mention of sexual assault that does not occur, and other dark themes.

Summary: Everyone in National City knows The Luthor family is not only the leaders in medical technology but that they have a darker business as well. They’re the ones you go to when you need something done that the local government and police refuse to do anything about. Like any crime family, they have rules. One of those rules: control the press. 

Needing to pick which of his children will take over as CEO of LuthorCorp and continue the family’s other business, Lionel Luthor gives Lena an ultimatum. She is tasked with finding a partner to stand by her side and to find a reporter The Luthor’s can keep in their pocket. If she does not complete these tasks within six months, the company and business will automatically go to Lena’s older brother, Lex. 

Growing up as a disabled child in a group home, Kara Danvers has learned that things in this world aren’t always black and white. She’s seen first hand that people can be cruel and vicious given the opportunity. Unbeknownst to her, she finds herself in the crosshairs of a powerful woman she’s been attracted to for years. 

What happens when the two meet and Kara finds out exactly who Lena Luthor is?

Y'know what-

Fuck villain hiveminds and secret agents-

crime circus

Trapeze artists and aerial acrobats sneaking into the securest of buildings. Pulling off high stakes heists with nothing more than some rope and a partner.

Balancing acts making their escape via telephone lines.

Clowns creating elaborate distractions to draw attention way from the object of interest.

Various artists who use objects in their acts wielding said objects as unique weapons and tools.

Animal tamers using animals to perform heists where humans ar unable to go.

Ventriloquists using their abilities to get people out of trouble, or creating imitations.

the Ringmaster, planning heists, the 'mastermind' (takes the 'credit' so as to protect their circus artists) The one who answers to the press and the authorities when they get suspicious.

The circus acting like a massive family, and no one can tie down the crimes to a single person because everyone is too good at covering their tracks. And if it does happen, that the authorities get a clue, they always back each other up and then the police is just as confused as when they first started.

And since their all a family. If anyone messes with one of the artists, the whole circus is there to wreak havoc.

Always travelling, and planning their heists accordingly.

Tutors and mentors to help the young ones with their worldly and criminal education.

Like- HELLO?!

I will fistfight God himself to defend their (father/daughter) relationship

That is the face of grief and loss. I will never get over how he truly thought he lost her right then.

He just looks so... lost. I don't think we've seen this level of open vulnerability since she tackled him in Ep3

The rage hasn't even set in yet, nor the determination when he picks her up. The 'you hurt her, so I'm going to be the one to help her' of it all. That isn't even there yet.

It's just... pain. Pure, parental anguish. His own threat turned around to bite him.

Could you imagine? Being separated from your daughter?

Don't touch me I'm not okay. I'll never be okay about them.

I miss them both so much.

Chapter 24

Sometimes the worst prisons are in our own minds....

Caliban set his coffee cup down on the nightstand, and picked up his phone.  He had an idea that might help Adira to relax and feel more comfortable.  Scanning his thumb to unlock it, he turned his head to look over at his wife.  His. Wife.  He was coming to like the sound of it, even though right now it was just in his mind, more and more.  “How about we call your family to let them know that you’re really not dead?  I bet they’re devastated at what happened.  Hearing from you might help them feel better.”

Coffee spilled onto the nightstand as Adira’s cup clattered down hard.  Her breath was coming hard and fast, her heart trying to escape her ribcage as she all but launched herself across the bed to grab and throw Caliban’s phone across the room, where it hit the door with a loud thud.  “NO!”  She grabbed his shoulders and looked in his eyes, barely holding onto control of herself.  “NO!  You can’t. They can’t know.  They can’t ever know.  You can’t tell them, ever.  Promise.  Promise you’ll never say a word, not even a hint, especially to my father.  I’m dead.  I have to be dead.  Always dead.  DEAD.  Do you hear me?  Promise me!  Promise me, Caliban!  I’m dead!”  

Adira’s eyes were wild, she was hyperventilating, and tears were streaming down her face. Just the thought of her family, especially her father, finding out that she was alive sent her into the icy grips of terror and panic.  Memories assailed her as she warred with the urge to get up and flee from the room, no thought to where she would go, or what that would accomplish.

Even though they were sitting in the middle of a king size bed, Adira most resembled a frightened animal that had been backed into a corner by a lethal predator.  Why?  That, Caliban did not know, but her grip on his shoulders was so tight that he was quite sure that her short nails were drawing blood.  The woman who had been ready to die rather than go with him in the basement was no in such a frenetic state he wasn’t sure what the best way to handle her was.

In shock, Caliban continued for a moment to simply stare into her eyes, her pupils blown wide in terror as he tried to figure out how to react without making things worse.  This was a reaction that he had not in any way anticipated.  Trying to help her feel more relaxed had backfired in the most spectacular way imaginable.  Day three of a married man, and so far this one was going as sideways as the previous ones, three for three.  At some point they had to start getting better.  He really did want her to calm down, lest one of her guards or Theron decide to sedate him and whisk her off somewhere.

Gently he took hold of her arms finally, his hands running gently over them to try and calm her.  His eyes kept on hers while he breathed deep and calm in hopes she would match him.  “Adira, my love, calm down.  Breathe with me, darling.”  He kept his voice quiet and soft.  He took deep breaths with her to try and help her calm, gently pulling her towards him so he could hold her until she was calm enough for him to find out more.  Thankfully her grip on his shoulders lessened and she started to let him guide her and come out of her blind panic.

Before he could say more, both Lars and Marcin threw open the door to the room and were in the doorway looking confused and concerned.  “Hey, uh, boss, uh, and, uh, Adira.” Lars started, then paused as he looked around the room for whatever threat had caused the commotion they’d heard from below, “we, uh, heard something hit the door, then it sounded like Adira yelling or screaming.  Is, uh, everything okay up here?”  His eyes were studying the scene before him, and he wasn’t sure what was going on, but he could tell Adira was terrified, and Caliban looked utterly confused.  This wasn’t good. What had happened?

“Adira was just about to tell me why we are never going to let her family know she is alive.  Weren’t you, sweetheart?”  Gently Caliban maneuvered her to be sitting next to him with his arm around her, pulling close against him. His free hand took one of hers, the thumb softly caressing the back of her hand.  “I made a bad suggestion, and what you heard was the response.  Unfortunately, I still have quite a bit to learn about my new bride.”  He clarified without taking his eyes off Adira who was trembling and now had a death grip on his hand with both of hers.

All she could do was nod and swallow, clinging to Caliban like he was her tie to life and sanity. “I’m sorry…”  It came out not much louder than a whisper, and Adira felt her husband pull her tighter against him and murmur some kind of reassurance.  All she could really hear though was the rushing of blood in her own ears.  The thought of her father finding out she was alive, and where she was, had so terrified her that she was having trouble calming back down from it.  The feel of Caliban’s lips against her temple caused her eyes to close and a couple of deep breaths to fill her lungs, she could do this. 

“My father knows what life was like for me,” finally she stuttered out then paused, taking several more deep breaths, “I tried to run away once, to go home.  When he found me, he beat me even more than…Mir…Mircea..and drug me back still bleeding.”  Adira’s whole body shook as she started to cry.  Memories assailed her as she began to recount all the times that her father had added onto whatever “punishment” that Mircea had thought she had earned.  Then there were the times that her father felt disrespected and took his anger out on her.  Or the times that he thought he saw her do something that disrespected Mircea, but Mircea wasn’t around or didn’t see, so her father took it out on her.  If it hadn’t been for Caliban’s strong hold on her, the way he would run his hand over her arm or thumb over the back of her hand, and the soft kisses on her temple when she stumbled over words, she wasn’t sure she would have had the strength to keep going.  Knowing he was there supporting her somehow gave her the strength to face the nightmares of her past.

The whole time Adira was talking, the three men said nothing.  Caliban was trying to reassure and comfort her, while also trying to digest everything she was recounting to them.  It was painful to listen to all she had endured, so he could only imagine how hard it was for her to relive.  His mind was having a difficult time comprehending how a parent could inflict such abuse on their child, let alone condone what Mircea had done and add further to it.  He knew she wasn’t lying, but he was still struggling.  The one thing he kept focused on was making sure that she felt supported and cared for.  There was no missing how hard it was for her to talk, and he didn’t mind being her rock to lean on for it.

More than once Lars and Marcin looked at each other as they listened.  Both men had worked for Caliban for some time and had carried out operations for him.  They might have inflicted the type of abuse that Adira was recounting upon men, but never women.  They knew few in their sphere of influence who would, even if the woman had done something to cause them great harm in one way or another.  Even death was brought more swiftly and painlessly to women.  It was the way that things had always been done, so to hear her speak of her father backing Mircea and being just as brutal, it was uncharted territory for both of them.  While Caliban currently just looked stunned, they had a feeling that when he had properly digested all she was saying that he would have much to say on this, and probably some actions that he desired to take.

When she had finished, the three men looked at each other, matching expressions of rage burned in their eyes, but they remained silent.  Caliban was the first one to speak.  His calm voice belied how enraged he was at all he had heard.  Now was not the time for that, that would come later.  “Lars, would you please get Adira some water?  Also, bring me the first aid kit from the supply room off of the kitchen?   I need to rewrap her hand.  Then, if you gentleman will please leave us, I think my wife needs some peace to fully calm back after the upset that I caused her.”

Lars nodded then headed towards the stairs to get what Caliban asked for.  Marcin stepped into the room to grab Caliban’s phone that was on the floor, and place it on the dresser, then mirrored Lars’ movements.  Neither man particularly wanted to remain, they had no idea what to say or how to respond without it being awkward.  Best to leave things to Caliban until it was needed that they do otherwise.
