Guys. You guys, this is something wonderful. To everyone who yelled at me for making them cry over that recent meta post about Eliot and Parker, I'm gonna do all of you a solid now and point you toward this brand new fic. It will fix all of the hurt, I promise.
This is just. This is everything I want for them. This is what I longed for Eliot to have after every job that left him bruised and bloodied, and it was done so, so beautifully. Seriously, the prose is freaking lyrical. The character voices are pitch perfect, especially Eliot's internal monologue. And the idea of the fic is just so lovely and so damn sweet that I'm aching over it. God. This fic is my canon and you can't tell me otherwise.
I can't actually say anything more without spoiling the fic for you, and that would be a damn shame because the discovery of each and every line of dialogue is such a real pleasure. This seems like the author's first Leverage fic. I really hope it's not the last.
BONUS: It fits so well into canon. It IS canon. Sshh, just go with it, if all of us say it is, we can make it so.
