#eliot is a bear

[geeky-nightphilosopher]

Can somebody explain to me how Parker is a cat AND a mouse? Is she a mouse only on a job and a cat with her family?

Am I making this up? Am I crazy? Am I the only person who sees this?

I just came across these two photos of the We Bare bears and pretty much immediately my brain went "This is so Eliot, Hardison, and Parker coded omg":

but then I came across this one and like??

Is it literally them in that one scene??

mostly joking toh theory: amity and emira are both trans girls, and the fact that they got to choose their names themselves is the only reason why neither of them ended up getting named "odalia jr."

I don’t know if I ever realized Tara called Eliot “Sparky” in “The Maltese Falcon Job” too.

[running-in-the-dark]

this just occurred to me and now I can't stop thinking about it

I need a crossover of Leverage and The Bear.

basically what I want is just Carmy and Eliot in a kitchen together. cooking or whatever, I don't care, cutting things with knives, just standing there, anything.

I am quite certain this has been discussed before or something along the line and yet—

It's about how Wordsworth said poetry is "spontaneous overflow of powerful emotion—recollected in tranquility" talking largely of those happy, blissful moments that him and other such Romantics preferred to live again and again and Eliot calling poetry essentially an "escapism" from emotions but not the joyous kind. He was a man of highly chaotic and rapidly transitioning era, the modern world gripping people in excruciating, unalterable clutches, something people couldn't fathom escaping from and neither was it easy for people to fit proportionally into the structure, so why wouldn't artists, who tend to see beauty in the world, or the many predecessors they followed did, use their art as an escape which brings to question was it Eliot who set this trend of escapism into art or was it Keats with his Nightingale and it's song(not that other poets didn't, but sir played finely with his subjectivity) and how many writers these days write recalling in tranquility blissful, powerful emotions and not merely to escape; its not just fantasy we escape to but the contemporary plots where everything turns out well enough by the end or if not then, atleast satisfying enough.

Back to my point, Wordsworth and Eliot both present their grounds with equal rationality considering the historical context and how it has affected literature since then.

Did Pope not write to escape his own thorns by stinging other people? Wasn't Austen in a way trying to construct her perfect HEA amidst her social satires and criticisms? Did not Donne meant to transcend into an alternate world of love beyond the physical realm? (I've got more but this should do for now)

Anyway back to the point.....or not, I forgot what was I............

I dare say you repent—you would like to go back, and can't: that must be a bitter thing.

TEDDY BEAR.

I NEED a headcanon right now.

Somebody give me an explanation. Please. It doesn't even have to be real.

(But also Teddy Bear makes sense. Eliot is a Teddy Bear.)

The rest of the team trying to pull off an elaborate job on a corrupt restaurant owner while Eliot is in the kitchen getting slightly too committed to the bit so that he’s basically on his own episode of The Bear is just the height of comedy

[somestorythoughts]

I’m not sure Parker and Hardison had a date night I think they dragged the crew along for family game night.

And it is HILARIOUS.
