So, like. Where do I find the Leverage icons? *bats eyelashes*

I have a good long post about gender and Leverage in me. But that post may not be happening today. Suffice to say:



First flush of fandom! Oh, yeah, like smack straight to the vein. Let's see. Thoughts:
- I want GSF! I want the fic from five years in the future where they've retired to a cabana in Italy or something, and technically it's Nathan's property but they all come around like stray cats to rub against his ankles (Sophie), steal his bandwith (Hardison), drop literally in on him from the balcony (Parker) and sit Buddha-like at his kitchen table sharpening knives (Eliot). Because they don't want him to do anything stupid. And he doesn't kick them out. THAT fic.
- PARKERRR. Parker is my tv girlfriend. I regret that they gave her backstory damage even while I love that she's so gleefully amoral and crazy and vulnerable and complicated. This is what Kripke missed when he tried to create Bela and S4!Ruby.
- HARDISON. Man. Love. Lovelovelove his dorky crush on Parker and his BRAIN and that he's kinda lonely and willing to put himself out there. He's like their Jared!
- Eliot, of course. Eliot is hotness squared. "Did you give your mama this number?" The KLINGON. I died. (After asking T if Kane called Jensen to check the pronunciation on that Klingon.) That he seems genuinely worried about Nathan. Where are the Dean/Eliot fics?
- Sophie. I love that she is a bad actress. I think she could stand to gain about 40 lbs. (Parker is skinny, but lanky-skinny. Believably an acrobat skinny.) I love that she's all Jessica Rabbit on Nathan, who's like "!!!!"
- Nathaaaan. Oh, you woobie cranky bastard. Black king, white knight is exactly right. He's a jerk, and he's prickly and raw from grief, and he's so damn ANGRY that it informs everything he does. Eliot's right in that if they're not with him, he's self-destructing. He kinda projects it like JDM projected rage from John Winchester, that scary tunnel vision. Rawr.

Here's some other icons for you: http://pixeestyx.livejournal.com/59368.html

ETA: and this is what cracks me up about Leverage - my parents LOVE it! My dad has a man-crush on Hardison, I swear to God.

The best part was that is was FAIL!Klingon and then Alec got pissy. ♥

I love this show. The writing is good and teh actors all work very well together.

And I get this huge kick knowing both of my parents are enjoying it too. My dad calls it 'that show with your guy'. *snort*

[meredevachon]

Yes to all of this. YES YES YES.

I keep wanting to tell everyone I see/know in RL they have to watch this show. And then I remember not everybody gets fannish like I do, or even likes the same things. But, I swear, this show OWNS me.

I have faith that Eliot's going to end up in the kitchen and fattening both of those girls up. Or maybe it's just hope. 'Cause even while I can see why Parker's a stick, both of them need to eat. And not just the ever present popcorn.

"Girl, you're too skinny. Have some pie."
(exasperated look) "If I weigh too much, the cable'll snap! Whee, splat."
"So I'll catch you."
"..."
*sprays whipped cream on pie*

And with Sophie, he'll point out if she gains weight she'll get to go shopping for new clothes and how awesome will that be. And he feeds Nate to help keep him from drinking so much. And Hardison gets so caught up in his latest hack, he'd forget to eat if Eliot didn't slide a plate of something yummy and a cup of tea next to his elbow every couple of hours.

And he takes care of all of them. And it is good. :D

Yes, yes....yesyesyes. I am in luck because Mr. Pup and Pupson also like it. (Course they fanboy Supernatural too) They really, really like it.

I adore all the characters, I mean, how often does that happen??

Ooh, and I meant to say that YES there needs to be Dean/Elliot fic NOW. Something set during the Stanford years, y/y??

I'm getting hooked on this series. I can already see it happening. It's the right mix of action, angst, and hilarious humor.

[ladykatiewench.livejournal.com]

YES!! I love it! LOVE! Can Eliot come and sharpen knives in my kitchen? Please?!

I love the "What's a Sofie?!" line that he had. That great beat before he said it!! It makes me happy in my happy spots.
