I love how Hardison managed to nerdify the rest of the team. Parker cosplays the Thirteenth Doctor and Eliot speaks Klingon, unimaginable activities for their season one selves <3

Parker has licked Sue the T-Rex twice. I think we moved on from that too fast
I need a quick little video of the Leverage team reacting to the Louvre robbery. I feel like Parker would be so offended. “Who brings chainsaws to rob the Louvre??? And scooters? What kind of getaway strategy is that?”
Hehehe, kudos ElectricNow, kudos
I know everyone’s joking about the Louvre heist maybe being Parker or Sophie but obviously it wasn’t
Too smash & grab for them
But Trevor from Hot Potato Job?
Possibly
He earnt all his check marks & detentions & questioning authority lol
& he was on my list of characters I’d love to come back in Redemption either as a thief to be redeemed or running his own Leverage Jr crew although I doing the maths & if he was around 10 in 2011 as a guess he’d be in his 20s now so not that Jr haha
obvious take but one of the many many things that makes leverage so enjoyable is that they lean in to the silly heist/action tropes with unapologetic glee. hedonistic even. like yes thanks i will clap and cackle with delight while eliot uses two (2) handguns to defeat like thirty bad guys with machine guns by doing a prolonged knee slide across a warehouse floor while somehow dodging all return fire, 10/10 no notes, two thousand more episodes please!
john rogers on the louvre heist. for context on the "low tech" thing, they used this to access the napoleonic jewels:
…and then really just normal power tools for the glass. and they didn’t try to stop the alarms going off etc. low tech but evidently effective.
They shipped the Hope Diamond by mail too!
Henry “Harry” Winston, a leading American jeweler and gem dealer, bought the diamond from Mrs. McLean’s estate in 1949. In November 1958 Winston donated the diamond to the Smithsonian Institution, intending it to be the foundation for a National Jewel Collection. With his years of experience in shipping jewelry all over the world, Winston chose to have the diamond delivered by registered mail. He told a reporter for the Washington Post that “ . . . [registered mail is] the safest way to ship gems. . . . I’ve sent gems all over the world that way.”

re: the louvre heist…. i imagine parker woke up from a nap to 52 missed calls from the team, silently appeared behind them in the HQ (and scared the shit out of them in doing so), and then got offended when they explained why they were calling - because she would never be so sloppy if she were robbing the louvre.
"seven minutes? pshh! it shouldn’t even take two! and who takes a basket lift to a heist? climb the wall yourself like a real thief. even that guy who got caught for the musée d’art moderne heist knew that. amateur hour over here, am i right? i wouldn’t bother with the louvre again anyway. they’ve had security concerns in the news for months. where’s the challenge in that? a chronically understaffed, giant old building with a bajillion sparkly expensive things… it’s just asking to get all heisted up! i’m surprised it took 28 years since i stole that corot for the place to be robbed again. *sigh*… that was one of the earliest commissioned jobs i took. brings back memories. beautiful, beautiful cash…".
beth riesgraf’s instagram story today:
Fun costuming detail for Leverage: Redemption Season 4 would be for Sophie to occasionally wear jewelry that looks remarkably similar to each of the stolen Louvre pieces. The less said about it, the better
Watching (sleeping through) Twilight with my irls has given me a very weird spidey sense for complete nonsense
Like, why does Rundown Job Eliot have the Alice haircut?
-Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamozov
hardison + pastoral suit
"alice got an invitation to make purim gift baskets," parker announces. "that's exciting, i guess."
"you're alice," eliot growls. "how many times do we gotta go over this?"
sophie retaliates, smacking him lightly with her purse before smiling and asking if alice needs help finding an outfit.
"what's wrong with my clothes?"
"absolutely nothing," hardison says. "you look amazing. for a synagogue event, though…"
"leave the beanie at the office, all right?" nate adds. "and the backpack with grappling hooks and climbing harnesses."
"isn't purim the festival with the costumes?"
"yeah, i guess we can make you a ninja outfit."

for @jewsinfandoms prompt "crossed wires"
eliot coming out of nowhere vs. parker disappearing into nothing
he's fighting a beautiful buff lady. her shirt gets ripped and she's left in her slutty little tank top. "come on," you think. "why is the woman always wearing sexier things than her male counterparts." but fear not. now HE takes off his shirt and he's left in HIS slutty little tank top. equality. and then they kiss
hardison i love you
