QUELIOT MOMENTS SEASON ONE
All of these posts will be tagged Masterlist and Queliot Masterlist so if you ever need to find it go to my blog and look under that tag.
If there is anything you want to add/amend please send me a message.
This does not include every time they are in a scene together, more along the lines of directly speaking to each other or moments the fandom has come to agree are important.
1.01 Unauthorized Magic
Eliot is the first person Quentin meets.
E: “Quentin Coldwater?”
Q: “Yeah.”
E: “I’m Eliot. You’re late.”
Eliot blatantly checks him out.
Eliot brings Margo to meet Quentin.
M: “This is him? He’s not that cute.”
They give Quentin a tour.
A bunch of great little scenes showing them hanging out, studying. Margo and Eliot join Quentin to crash Julia’s birthday party.
1.02 The Source of Magic
Talk after the Beast attacks for the first time.
E: “Jesus, you didn’t tell me you were dangerous.”
Brings Alice and Quentin to the Cottage for the first time.
Eliot and Quentin talk about the Beast, Quentin admits he’s scared he’ll be expelled.
Q: “Before I got here I was in the hospital.”
E: “I’m gonna tell you something deep and dark and personal now. Ready? Okay–I killed someone.”
Q: “If you’re trying to tell me that it gets better–”
E: “God, no no. It doesn’t. I’m trying to tell you, you are not alone here.”
“Magic doesn’t come from talent. It comes from pain.”
Quentin is informed a specialist is coming to see him, he is openly panicking.
Q: “You do not have to make me feel better. Really, we basically just met each other.”
E: “Well, I bond fast. Time is an illusion.”
“How bout, I find you and I don’t say magic is real but I do seduce you and so lift your spirits that life retains its sparkle for decades.”
Q: “Yeah, that sounds nice. Thank you.”
After being told he’s not going to have his memory wiped Quentin heads back to the Cottage where Margo and Eliot are barbecuing and they shout for him to join them.
1.03 Consequences of Advanced Spellcasting
Alice and Quentin burn their way into the Cottage where Margo and Eliot wait for them.
M: “You and your first year boys. What’s your obsession with the flavor of the month?”
E: “He’s a high-strung super nerd. We love those.”
Alice and Quentin are doing some studying to figure out how to talk to Charlie when Eliot runs up and pulls Quentin away.
E: “Quentin. I need your help. Top priority.”
Eliot tells Quentin they need to go find a book while Quentin asks again and again what is in the box next to them that keeps shaking. They go find the book where the hedge witches are hiding.
Quentin and Eliot get drunk at the Cottage.
E: “Tell you what, let’s not talk.”
1.04 The World in the Walls
Quentin is trapped in a “mental” mental hospital. Eliot grabs at him a bunch, slaps his ass, tells him he’ll sleep with Quentin.
Back in the real world, they find Quentin passed out in a closet and have to tell the Dean about it. Once they administer the Matarses (bug demon) the Dean says Quentin needs to do the rest. Eliot and the others stay by his side until he coughs up the bug. Eliot pats him on the head.
1.05 Mendings, Major and Minor
Welters season is upon the students, along with an influx of mentors. Quentin judges people for choosing lackluster careers despite being magicians.
E: “This isn’t Middle Earth, Quentin. There aren’t enough noble quests to go around.”
Q (talking to Margo): “What kind of system is that? Why can’t it run on love? Or cocaine, or something?”
Eliot is talking to Alice when Quentin comes up and demands his attention.
Q: “What do you know about Cancer Puppy?”
Eliot shows him the puppy and Quentin says he can heal him.
E: “You’re going to cure Cancer Puppy?”
And then ends up killing the dog.
1.06 Impractical Applications
The Trials begin for the first-years and Margo and Eliot have fun tormenting them throughout.
E: “…and take turns blowing the horse.”
M: “Did you see the look on Quentin’s face?”
E: “Like ‘fine, but I am not going first’.”
1.07 The Mayakovsky Circumstance
NADA
1.08 The Strangled Heart
Alice and Quentin get back from Brakebills South where Eliot is hosting his new boytoy, Mike. Quentin takes the drinks Eliot has prepared.
Q: “How do you always have drinks waiting for us?”
Mike: “Nice meeting you.”
E: “Hey, eyes on the porkbutt mister.”
Mike: “He’s pretty.”
E: “I know, but I called dibs on him, so.”
Margo is in Ibiza so Eliot goes to Quentin to help him find something to wear.
Q: “Honestly, all vests look the same to me.”
E: “I made a horrible mistake asking you to help. Please leave.”
Q: “I was here first. I’ve never really seen you care about something.”
E: “Things usually aren’t worth caring about.”
Mike attacks Quentin, Eliot and Quentin are in the hospital waiting room sharing a flask.
1.09 The Writing Room
Eliot joins Alice, Quentin, and Penny to go to the Plover’s mansion.
In the last episode Eliot had to kill Mike and I believe this marks the beginning of his downward spiral from ‘drinking for fun’ to ‘drinking to get and stay royally fucked up’. Quentin doesn’t say anything about his binge but from here on out seems to look genuinely worried for Eliot. They also become a LOT more snippy with each other during most of their exchanges.
Once they escape the haunted house Quentin hugs Alice, says he is happy to see her alive.
E: “We’re great. We’re both great actually.”
Alice wants to clear the house, Eliot basically bitches her out.
Q: “Shut the fuck up.”
1.10 Homecoming
Alice and Quentin talk to Margo and Eliot in which Eliot is truly fucked up and Quentin looks at him with worry.
1.11 Remedial Battle Magic
The gang try probability spells to see what will happen with the Beast. This marks the FIRST TIME Quentin has had to see/deal with Eliot dying.
They use the emotion bottles for the first time, this isn’t a Queliot thing but when they drink their emotions again Eliot remains VERY standoffish to Margo suggesting he is always bottling his emotions and rarely shows how he really feels towards people/situations. This is very apparent in the show and the books but I feel like this is the first piece of EXTREMELY concrete evidence we get.
After practicing battle magic Eliot and Quentin retire to the Cottage and are shown drinking–clearly have been drinking for quite a while. They laugh together.
Eliot, Quentin, and Margo fall into bed together, all drunk. Eliot passes out and Quentin and Margo discuss him before it cuts to the morning where everyone is naked. There are flashes of the night before showing that they had a threesome. First Queliot kiss.
1.12 Thirty-Nine Graves
More flashbacks of the threesome.
Q: “It’s not funny and it’s not a joke.”
E: “But it really is, Quentin.”
1.13 Have You Brought Me Little Cakes
Once Quentin and Julia are in the Fillory of the present, Quentin is hit in the head by a paper airplane Eliot enchanted to find them. They rejoin the gang.
E: “Really good to see you again, Q.”
Eliot finds out he’s going to be High King. He relinquishes his never-emptying flask to Margo. It’s not a Queliot quote, but I think it’s an important one to have in the wheelhouse when Eliot says,
E: “I am miserable. My life it doesn’t work. Nothing’s ever fixed that. Drug, sex, booze. Not even magic.”
The Beast reveals himself and proceeds to kill Alice, cut off Penny’s hands and (I think?) kill Eliot and Margo (I honestly don’t know if he killed them or just knocked them out but it would make a LOT more sense for him to kill them). This marks the SECOND TIME Quentin has had to see/deal with Eliot dying.
