'somebody kiss this man so i don't have to' ykw what we call that in this house. we call those some famous last f*cking words, Eliot Spencer sir

[theinfinitedivides]

did not know it was physically possible for Eliot to make himself look even smaller and non-threatening until he showed up in that gym for the con and turned up the 'well i don't know if i should say this my boss might be mad' dial to absolutely astronomical damage

[theinfinitedivides]

can't believe i'm saying this but i may have just tracked down the possible location of the Eliot flashback in The Miracle Job by the split second frame of the f*cking currency on the table. what can i say it's a very distinctive banknote

[theinfinitedivides]

the 'we've [the CIA] been doing some hinky sh*t in Pakistan' to 'where were you the last six months?' 'i was. in Pakistan' pipeline cannot and must not be ignored like hey what the f*ck the comedic payout?????????

[theinfinitedivides]

'now you. you're different. you fight like something's trying to get out of you.' read for filth?????????? possibly read for filth by the mark?????????? Eliot?????????

[theinfinitedivides]

Eliot losing his sh*t when Hardison drops the slushie on the floor of the front passenger seat only to shut up when they spot the mark coming out of the club the two of you are married. this is beyond workplace entanglement you have three stepkids atp and several backup offshore accounts with like a dozen different identities attached to those so you can ride off into the f*cking sunset if need be. and no as much as you are threatening to kill him for the violation of your car space you wouldn't do a damn thing let's be real

[theinfinitedivides]

when your boyfriend(?) and girlfriend(?) save an entire orphanage but you just have the stupidest little grin on your face Eliot my love babe it's only ep six why are we down so bad already

[theinfinitedivides]

and if i said i was about to do the dumbest thing i've done in a while and make a canon Eliot Spencer tracker map of all the places he's said he's been when i still haven't made it past s2. if i said that would you think that's a good idea

[theinfinitedivides]

thinking thoughts about how i came out straight from the queer revenge thriller MINDF*CK that was Vigilante and proceeded to head straight into the queer + family by choice + revenge + Robin Hood sometimes MINDF*CK that is Leverage the next year. thinking thoughts about how Ji Yong and Eliot remind me of each other and if i sit on that for too long i will be ill thinking Thoughts!!!!!!! i am Thinking

[theinfinitedivides]

the Tap Out Job really said 'hey you wanna see something really f*cked up' and then spent an entire episode make Eliot the grifter of all grifters, f*cking with our heads, making himself look so small you're frankly frightened for him, and the worst part is i fully believe he has done all of these things before in other more life-threatening circumstances with varying degrees of success so that's why he does it here again. and then when the con is detected we enter survival mode and just manage not to kill a man bc we don't do that anymore, it's for the con, no one gets hurt more than they have to, we take the punishment, it's what we do. congratulations there's a f*cking truckload of trauma in the backseat and you're only letting us look at what. 2% of it. it's fine. we're fine. it's good we're ok nothing to see here let's move on

[theinfinitedivides]

'good thing Parker switched that with water' 'didn't. didn't switch' mark that down in the Nate goes through suffering book

[theinfinitedivides]

love how Hardison is like get me out of here pls and Parker's automatic response is 'i'm on it' she's completely forgotten that her ass is supposed to be dead. this is not a haunting or some shit but ykw one track mind Hardison needs her she's going to get Hardison

[theinfinitedivides]

'it's not raining men, man, it's raining death' i can tell you rn that Hardison got back to base and patted himself on the back for that and then once the con was finished went around humming 'humidity's rising~~~~~' under his breath as he should

[theinfinitedivides]

Hardison is so so sexy when he's screwing racists over and i love that for all of us

[theinfinitedivides]

blacked out and wrote 500 words of a fic that i'm not even sure i'll be able to tackle bc i read too much on ao3 even though i'm still in s2 and now i'm ill and unwell and Eliot Spencer is rotting my brain from the inside out and the playlist blew up to almost a thousand songs. i'm blaming this specifically on Joan Armatrading and Johnny Flynn

[theinfinitedivides]

bout to like idk. pass out or some sh*t from Hardison touching Eliot's face like that before the fight i need a few business days to process
