#leverage redemption season 2

[kajaono]

Thinking a lot about Paul hearing the trigger being pulled and his first instinct is to grab Eliot.

[ID: Three Leverage Redemption sketches. Top is Parker, Hardison and Eliot. Parker is in the foreground with her arms folded and a devious smile on her face. Behind her, Hardison is smirking and looking at Eliot, who is looking back at him in confusion. Beneath Parker it says "Let's go steal the president's shoelaces", above Hardison is a shifty-eyed smiley face, and above Eliot is ?!. Middle sketch is Harry leaning on a door frame, looking as Eliot walks towards him with cuts and bruises on his face and arms, and one hand pressed to his side, where there is blood soaked into his shirt. Bottom sketch is Dr Paul Orozco and Eliot sitting on a sofa drinking beer. Paul is grinning and has one hand on Eliot's bicep, and Eliot is smiling softly and looking back at him. End ID]

Some Redemption stuff. Drawing these while have the plague and a bit dizzy, so not sure if when I'm better I'll realise all the proportions are off or the lines super fuzzy XD But maybe they're all photos taken through a lens with vaseline on it!

Leverage Redemption Log: The Crowning Achievement Job

Alarms still going off, Sophie is slow to leave cause its getting a bit emotional, her and Elliot are split from Parker and Harry by a safetydoor. --- Parker and Harry are going to gain access to the security room, Breanna tries to get the code from Curator Dunbar, (which not only lets them free Sophie and Elliot, but also get access to camerafootage of Arthur being a Crim)

Elliot suspected that Arthur was going to try something (because he knows Billy hates Sophie?) Breanna is proud of herself for the simple pickpocket. Harry is in the vents and almost manages not to have a panic attack.

Harry is unconcious in the vents and for some reason the FBI is in London now (not only do they not have juristiction, even if you were to somehow get them involved they wouldnt be able to teleport across the ocean) --- Arthur is playing the "reformed crook" Sophie is doing arts and crafts with Elliots wallet (his words not mine), Breanna pretends at being Harry, actual Harry is back in the vents.

We're out and clear but Sophie wants to stay (the crown is still in the museum after all) Im siding with Elliot and Harry here TBH.

--- Oh she called her mom. (Thats notable because Sophie refered to her as a "stepchild" at least once) Breanna loses valuable time pretending to be Elliot, but gets to keep the car in place.

She's not looking to take down Ramsey, she's looking to talk to (and possibly take down) her Sophie (i thought that was blatantly obvious, but apparently thats supposed to be a twist) The one benefit of having every agency on the planet in one place is things get so muddled you can claim to be from 5 agencies at once and nobody's knows whats even going on.

Oh the cops in the Hanover wing are drinking tea, guess its time for that good old biochemistry again. Team is arrested to give Arthur overconfidance issues. Commercial break --- Right so he never needed to worry bout those pressure sensors cause they're beneath the little black-cover thingy.

Oh its the other teams... thats cool. Sterling is section chief now (remember, last we saw him he was only head of a taskforce or department), and he's covering for Sophie in his own ways.

Hardison makes an end-of-season cameo (turns out his spacebuddies forgot to make a second rocket for the return trip. Time to heist NASA)

I NEED SEASON 3 OF LEVERAGE REDEMPTION BY YESTERDAY

[kajaono]

Love how Parker used to push Hardison off buildings and thought that was flirting. Nice parallel here

Leverage Redemption S2E10: The Work Study Job

[kajaono]

I love Eliot focused episodes so much. Kane is always the hitter but he is so good when he is allowed to open up and show Eliot’s emotional side

[lemissingmask]

[ID: Sketch in dark red of Parker and Eliot from Leverage Redemption. Eliot is on all fours and wearing a cowboy hat, looking under a desk while Parker uses him as a step to step up into the desk. End ID]

-

The fact that Parker uses Eliot as a step to get onto a desk when she could very easily jump or flip or something onto the desk on her own…it’s so very them.

Also not long after he got hit in the back with a big ol’ plank of wood. But that’s just a Tuesday for Eliot 🤷

Leverage Redemption log: The Belly of the Beast Job

So i didnt feel like doing the usual "stop and go" watching format i usually do. I just felt like turning on the show and watching it. I'll admit that for a second i legitimately thought i was watching the wrong show

Lovely episode, sort of a combination of Harry's Debut episode ("amateur tries crime and auditions for Leverage by accident") and the Futures Job ("Team is forced to run con by proxy"). I really like how they get to joke about some of the series conventions (every alias is a reference? Oopsie this girl watches Dr. Who.) Everyone running around in the background doing their usual stuff. Breanna has a musical number.

Parker as a Lockpicking Lawyer type "overly special-interest youtuber" makes sense on a level that is hilarious. Like this is definitly what would've become of her in an alternate timeline where her original dad was slightly less deserving of a gasleak explosion. Not much to say, If this reboot ever has a big "last dam job" type plot i look forward to seeing Jenna and Keith have an episode with Hurley and the Sleep-inducing accountant.

If I could talk to Eliot, I'd tell him that for someone who says he's accepted he's irredeemable, he sees awfully not ok with it. If he was, he wouldn't care about being useful. It wouldn't look like his heart broke by resigning himself to believing he's just a monster doing good.

I'd tell him that the Eliot who did those things in the past is dead and gone and that he needs to stop thinking of the two of them as the same person. He was pulled out of it. He got his humanity back.

Nate helped him. Sophie helped him. Parker helped him. Hardison helped him. The people they helped helped him. They all killed the Eliot he used to be. He's not that monster, not do I think he could be again. And if you can't go back to who you were, you are truly a different person.

Just because you can't make up for what you have done in the past, that doesn't mean you can't turn around and be a person worthy of love and being seen in a different light.

You guys went all in on becoming better people and you brought me along for the ride.

ok I need to know: has Eliot Spencer tried the curly girl method and how did it go? because I am convinced that his hair is naturally curly and I need them to stop straightening it/brushing it out. every time it gets wet, it gets wavy and I just… ::fans self:: imagine if his hair looked like this ALL THE TIME

FURTHERMORE, what am I supposed to do with the knowledge that sometimes this man puts tiny little beads in tiny little sections of his hair just because. he likes to feel pretty.

[reinanova]

Consider:

Harry walks in on Parker kissing Eliot to comfort him (or vice versa) and he backs out of the room in a panic because this poor precious child is unaware of polyamory and the leverage OT3. So, in support of the Bro Code, he goes to Breanna and asks her to send a message to Hardison so he can talk to him.

Now Breanna, the wonderful little sis she is, asks Harry what’s so important that he feels the need to contact Hardison immediately. So Harry confesses that he just saw Parker cheating on Hardison with Eliot and that he needs to tell Hardison about it.

You cannot tell me that Breanna, our gay ace gen Z icon, is not aware of her brother being in a polyamorous relationship. And okay yes, maybe she “accidentally” found evidence of their relationship when she “accidentally” hacked into their phones but that’s hardly her fault. That was just the proof for her suspicions.

Back to Harry. Breanna is just holding back laughter at Harry’s obliviousness and of course she’s here for the drama (and listening to Hardison rant about the interruption) so she sets up a video call with Hardison, secretly sharing the video screen to the room Eliot and Parker are in.

So Hardison shows up on the call, visibly busy with lots of chaos and going ons behind him and is all, “Breanna, what’s wrong?”

And then Harry is all, “Hardison, I gotta tell you something” and tells him what he saw and is very apologetic that he’s informing Hardison that his girlfriend is cheating on him.

Hardison stares into the camera like he’s on The Office, visibly annoyed before going “Really man? Really??? You interrupt me while i’m dealing with [lists like five things he’s got going on right now] for this?”

And then turns to Breanna and says, “You let him call me for this?”

And she gives no fucks about it and just shrugs and is all “I thought it would be funny.”

Now Harry is growing more and more confused and he’s like, “Umm excuse me, are we just ignoring the whole girlfriend cheating on you thing?”

At this point, Parker drops in from the ceiling or something behind Harry and is like, “It’s not cheating when they’re both my boyfriend.”

And Eliot also pops up and says, “I should hope I’m able to kiss my girlfriend when our boyfriend isn’t around to kiss us.”

After Harry recovers from his mini heart attack after getting startled twice by Parker and Eliot, he’s like, “Cool, cool. Wait, what??”

But Eliot and Parker have already wandered off and Hardison is distracted with his stuff and Breanna shrugs at Harry before picking up her laptop and leaving to go catch up with Hardison while she has him on the call. So Harry is left standing there in confused but supportive spirit.

We got a return of Duchess Charolette AND Eliot’s sandwich!!!
