Queerness, Feminism & Music with Rocks in it

I love how so many times throughout the series one of the Leverage crew will need to do something that’s not in his/her usual skill set and then someone else will say, “Oh, just do it like I taught you to” and for some reason I just love the thought of them teaching each other things in their free time.

#this is such an excellent concept #and my favorite part of it is how it must have gone in the early days of the team #nobody quite able to look someone else in the face and say ‘do me a favor and teach me this awesome thing?’ #so Hardison spends an entire afternoon trying to trick Sophie into correcting his British accent #at first she thinks he’s mocking her and then she thinks he’s flattering her #and then she hears him saying ‘bowties are cool’ to his monitor screens and she realizes #and after she’s rolled her eyes a bit she goes back in and leans on his desk #and starts working on giving him the idea to offer her a trade–better backstories for her favorite aliases in exchange for accent tutoring #or maybe Sophie’s alright with the lockpicks she keeps tucked in her designer hairclips #but she’d really like to be able to handle combination locks as well #and she spends a week trying to wiggle Parker into offering to teach her with no luck #and then finally just shows up with a two-pound chocolate bar and asks outright #and Eliot spends weeks watching the rest of his team run from what would have been otherwise very simple little fights #and he sits on his incredible need to help them be better able to defend themselves for a while #until he and Sophie end up sitting for three hours in an empty warehouse waiting for the mark #and he tells her he wants to teach her to punch ‘just so he can have something to do’ #and he tells her it’s because he’s bored and because he’s cranky and that either she can learn to punch or learn to take a punch #and she thinks she knows the truth–Parker’s hardest to understand but Eliot’s still hardest to read– #but it’s not until he says ‘there’s gonna be a job where you have to punch Nate at some point. Don’t you want to be able to make it count?’ #that she takes off her pretty rings and agrees to learn (tags via ereborne)

the irredeemable pervert is generally well regarded among their friends for their insightful thoughts and all around pleasant demeanour

Working an office job will truly make you have the wildest enemies, bc why is my nemesis rn a woman I’ve never met and who exclusively haunts me by sending diabolical emails, and also a specific guy who left my company before I even worked here and made the system so fuckass that it ruined procedures for like a year

I hate it when you’re reading smut and you can’t figure out what position they’re in.

ITS BACK

Some computer related jobs will periodically send you emails posing as phishing scams and if you open it you automatically have to take a web safety training seminar and I just think they should do that for tumblr except with reading comprehension

#how DARE you say tumblr should send me phishing emails

i do think a lot of implausible medieval plot devices make more sense when considering the fact that these people simply did not have glasses

like the king arthur problem of how were these people always accidentally sleeping with the wrong person? well 1) no glasses 2) no lights and candles are so expensive 3) royal couples didn’t even sleep in the same bed a lot of the time anyway 4) arranged marriage how much do you really know your spouse anyway? maybe not very well a lot of the time 5) people are drinking a lot idk. maybe not as absurd as one might think

this post is brought to you by the one time i woke up at a sleepover and realized that without my glasses i could not distinguish one friend from the other. haunting. all of arthurian literature was unlocked to me at that moment

I understand that you were aiming for a morally grey protagonist, but in practice what you've ended up with is more of a moral beige.
