âso 1) i saw your eliot spencer headcanon post from a bajillion years...â
Absolutely fascinating bit of character rambling, I have to say. XDD Also, I have never read this kind of crossover and I feel *cheated*. [bumbles off to find said xovers]
Ironically, I massively misread that post originally so have the rec list I dredged out of my memory for it, haha. Thereâs a lot more on ff.net than ao3, if youâre going digging!
Eliot and Lindsey are twins:
The Soul Job by JediButtercup is probably the quintessential; Eliot asks his team to help him steal back his brotherâs soul. Lots of cute banter and brothers being brothers. Also, was a Big Bang fic, and thus illustrated!
Maášášaltu by LithiumDoll is a plotty, fun team piece where Eliot and the team are dragged in to fix Lindseyâs mistakes; really cool world-building and magic ideas, and a bit darker than the previous one.
The Faked Death Job by BGeek is a cute piece of Eliot faking his death for a con. Lindsey does Not Take This Well, and Eliot punches Angel in the face.
The McDonald Boys âverse by poestheblackcat: âThis is a story in which Eliot gets de-aged and kicks Nate in the nads, his twin Lindsey turns up to get him out of trouble but laughs himself sick first, Hardison geeks out, Sophie is bad with children, and Parker is Dorothy.â
poestheblackcat also has other series and some cute one-shots; I like The Other Eliot (Parker grabs An Eliot during an escape) and Old Possumâs Book Of Practical Cats (the team is magically turned into cats, but luckily, someone has a twin who is both magic-friendly and fluent in Cat).
Eliot used to be Lindsey:
In Another Life by angelskuuipo is about that Leverage episode where they need someone to play a lawyer, and Eliot is mad that itâs not him. A cool study of the parallels of each showâs characters.
The Lawyer Equation by txfantasystar is about the episode where they go to court as well, but this time Eliot canât help himself and Lindsey wins the trial. Shame Lindsey is supposed to be dead...
