#eliot x quinn

[trivalentlinks]

back on my weird leverage AUs (this is another darker-than-canon AU)

AU where the events of the pilot episode happens three years earlier, when Eliot is still working for Moreau (but it's towards the end of this period, when he's already starting to question whether he can live with himself like this).

(Let's push up the timeline for everyone else, so Nate lost his son three years earlier, etc.)

Since Eliot isn't on the market, Dubenich hires Quinn as the hitter. Quinn does like guns, and is a little more cheerful, but a little more skittish, but mostly things are the same.

The thing is, Moreau, with Eliot by his side, is much more careful. Eliot never tells anyone about him, and neither does anyone else, so even though this Moreau is just as powerful and influential as he is in canon, hardly anybody knows who he is.

A few months in, the team accidentally end up in Moreau's crosshairs by unknowingly doing a big job against a company that Moreau secretly controls.

They had no idea what they were up against--None of them had even heard of Moreau, except Quinn (who used to work with Eliot on-and-off, before Eliot worked for Moreau), but even Quinn doesn't know anything about Moreau other than that he's Eliot's employer. (He knows that much because Eliot tried to recruit him for Moreau once several years back, but he wasn't ready for the commitment back then.)

So anyway, they really kicked the hornet's nest on this one, and now this little rag-tag team is being hunted by Moreau's private army led by Eliot fucking Spencer, uh-oh, they're all gonna fucking die

(Eliot and Quinn didn't part on bad terms, but they were never really friends, either. They trusted each other on the job and shared the occasional post-job meal or drink, but they weren't friends beyond that. They were certainly not friendly enough for Quinn to think Eliot would go easy on the team on Quinn's account when he catches up to them.)

(Also Quinn knows Eliot well enough to know that it's when, not if, Eliot catches up to them.)

I'm really just imagining a scene where Eliot closes in on Quinn and Hardison, and Quinn, injured and out of ammo (and didn't have a better than 30% chance of defeating Eliot in hand-to-hand combat even on a good day), begs Eliot to let Hardison go, like, "Please. He's nineteen--a teenager. You don't kill kids, right? Teens included?"

(Back when Eliot and Quinn worked together on-and-off, they still sometimes took jobs working against each other. One such time, Eliot didn't kill Quinn when his job would have been easier if he did, and when asked about it, cited "I don't kill kids. Teens are included in that," as his reason, much to then-19-year-old Quinn's annoyance.)

(Quinn knows that Eliot was just teasing him back then--older, armed teens like Quinn were not included in "I don't kill kids".)

(And anyway, based on the rumours, Quinn is pretty sure Eliot left the realm of "I don't kill kids" a long time ago.)

(But look, he's about to die. This annoying, brilliant teenaged hacker who managed to embarrass Damien Moreau (and, more impressively, has almost wormed his way into Quinn's non-existent heart) is about to die. Quinn is desperate.)

(Quinn certainly isn't expecting it when this last-ditch plea actually works.)

I wanna write for leverage, mainly Eliot/Quinn, but i don't know what to write about! Or if there is any one else here to engage with.

[lynne-monstr]

fic where quinn reluctantly calls in the favor from eliot. but the fic isn't about the favor, it's about what happens after.

because both eliot and quinn are hitters first, and assume that now without the favor between them, they're back to being adversaries. it takes them multiple years on opposite sides of many jobs for them to figure their shit out. then they kiss. (not that they weren't kissing before but that was as opponents so it's different now)

eliot and quinn grappling from @trivalentlinks 's when you move, i'm moved (ao3 link) b.c. they live rent free in my head

Summary:

The team bring in Quinn as a secondary hitter on a job. But sometimes a hitter in waiting has to make his own fun... and as it happens, Quinn's got a funny little bone to pick.

So, I wrote a little ficlet like a year ago and today I revisited my WIP folder and decided to post it.

Two Horse Job

I've been sitting on this au for a while, it's unfinished, so only a handful of paragraphs.

The Two-Horse Job I’m taking liberties with Canon and Eliot’s back story. Willie Martin had two children, and Aimee was not Eliot’s high school sweetheart. (I repeatedly listened to Dasha’s Austin song on repeat while thinking about this, and it shows.)

—--------------------

Eliot was a few days shy of turning 18, while Quinn had turned 17 a few months back; they were up on the roof of Quinn’s house looking up at the stars, Quinn talking about the constellations with his head in Eliot’s lap. 

Quinn had just finished telling the story of Ursa Major, his voice filled with wonder, when Eliot kissed him. It was a kiss that spoke of desperation, of a thirst that could only be quenched by Quinn. The angle was awkward: Eliot hunched over while Quinn arched his back up into the kiss, unaware of Eliot’s internal struggle. Had Quinn known what was going to happen next, he would have done more.

Eliot was gone the next day, taking only the bare essentials and getting on the first bus out of town, leaving everyone in his life behind without a second glance. Quinn kept the promise ring Eliot gave him all through his senior year, a symbol of their love and commitment, waiting for Eliot to come back. After graduation, he wore the ring on a chain around his neck as a reminder not to let anyone get that close again.

—--------------- Quinn never thought he’d return home, but Aimee called him one night on the burner phone he left her, her voice trembling with tears as she spoke about the horses and how Dad was in way over his head, and she didn’t know what to do.

So Quinn, transformed by a decade of life's trials, dropped everything and returned to Kentucky. Aimee almost didn’t recognize him at first, this stranger standing at her doorstep; his hair was longer and pulled back into a neat, low ponytail. He was wearing a suit that fit him perfectly, and he had a nasty bruise on his cheek, but Aimee would recognize her brother anywhere.

“Look at you,” Aimee says, hugging him tightly. “All grown up,”

“Ten years will do that to a person,” Quinn teases, unwilling to let go of his sister.
