#s'up eliot

[geekynightowl1997]

I don't think we talk enough about how Hardison went from;

"I don't even know what you do."

To;

"S'up Eliot."

And the thing is-in both situations- Hardison was lax. When they first met Eliot was clearly annoyed and Hardison was just being his cocky self. By the time The Rundown Job happened, Hardison was comfortable enough to be in an elevator by himself hacking away. Knowing full what Eliot could do.

On the flip side:

Eliot went from;

"You are precisely why I work alone."

To;

"I have the best thief and the smartest hacker I know."

Which is say A LOT because Mason (Chaos) is around. And if I remember correctly- Hardison doesn't even think he's on par with Mason.

These two men grew SO much between getting to know each other and working together. Their trust for each other is so real it hurts.

And then you add in Parker and-ahh!- I don't even describe it. Because Parker went from being a lone and being almost fearful of working with people- to having utter faith in them.

Jumping without knowing if Eliot was there. And waiting for Hardison to go looking for her.

I think that's why Eliot's "Til my dying day." Is so- Aaaahhh!

I love them. They are a found family your honor.
