Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-30 01:56 am (UTC)The thirteen-year-old boy turns from his book with a cool look. “I’m Lindsey. I’m studying for the test tomorrow.”
Aimee puts a hand on her hip and steps outside. “Right. What are you even doin’?”
He huffs, annoyed. “I’m studying, Aimee,” he repeats, “Test tomorrow?”
“Wildcats just scored a touchdown,” she says, “Didn’t you wanna see that, Eliot?”
He carefully and deliberately puts a piece of paper in the book to keep his place and closes it. “Aimee. Seriously. I’m Lindsey.”
“Do you think I’m stupid?”
Very easy question. Smart answer: “No.”
“Then stop messin’ around and come inside.” She turns on her heel and throws over her shoulder, “Leave the book outside for Lindsey. He started lookin’ antsy right about halftime.”
Eliot smirks. Man, that Aimee. So pretty, and smart, and...yeah, he’s just gonna stop right there.
He hears footsteps and looks up to see Lindsey leaning against the doorway.
“How does she do that?” Lindsey grumbles.
Eliot shrugs. “Beats me.” He gets up and hands the textbook to his brother as he passes him. “What’s the score on the game?”
“14-10, Wildcats in the lead, just made a touchdown a coupla minutes ago,” Lindsey reports, settling down with his book. “This is getting really old,” he says, “Every time. Every time, she gets us. How does she do it?”
“I dunno,” Eliot says, “But I’ll tell you one thing. It is damn hot.”
Lindsey grimaces. “Ew. Go.” He kicks the back of his brother’s legs. “Go watch your stupid game.”
“It ain’t stupid.”
“Is too.”

Date: 2012-07-30 05:41 am (UTC)Ever since I first read Leverage/Angel crossovers with them as brothers, I've always had it in my head that one of the reasons Eliot liked Aimee so much was she could tell them a part. And I love that in your verse Eliot seems to have gotten his 'it's very distinctive' phrase from his Daddy.
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-30 05:51 am (UTC)Yep! Eliot got his "distinctive" phrase from his daddy! Or rather, Daddy got it from Eliot, since this is fanfic. ;D
"one of the reasons Eliot liked Aimee so much was she could tell them a part" - I'd never thought of that, so thanks!
Hmmrph. You and your awesome prompts. It's part of the reason why I'm so reluctant to finish off my series and "fix" the "little" problem. There's still so much more to write!
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-30 10:22 am (UTC)Well, even if you do fix that 'little' problem, you could always write about the havoc they wreak afterwards. You know they'd prank Hardison and Parker, and Sophie and Nate would have a mile long list of cons that only work with twins. ;)
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 05:52 am (UTC)Oh yeahhhhhhh...But I haven't finished everything I want to do with wee!Eliot and big!Lindsey yet. *sigh*
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 07:12 am (UTC)Did the plot bunnies attack? ;) There's no reason you have to write the stories in order. Just post them in order. :D
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 07:18 am (UTC)*growls* Yes. My ankles are mush, thanks to you. >:-(
Okay, okay, I'll call it what it is: I'M A BIG FAT PROCRASTINATOR!!! ;D
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 08:14 am (UTC)Lol! ::hands over some carrots:: Here, this might hold them off. ;)
And you're not the only procrastinator. I signed up for the August session of Camp Nano, and I have a Dean/Cas mini bang story I need to finish by the 15th of August. I've restarted the story three times already! :grumbles: My stupid inner editor won't shut up.
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 08:31 am (UTC)Gnawing on carrots is merely practice for gnawing on my ankles.
LOL! Yes, that's mostly why I never sign up for those kinds of things with deadlines. My annual birthday fic is enough for me. ;D
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 08:56 am (UTC)See in my verse, Dean, Sam, Eliot, and Lindsey are all very good friends. The Leverage team has so heard of Neal Caffery and Nate and Peter Burk worked cases together when he was still with IYS. Michael Westen and Eliot served together on classified missions along with Auggie Anderson from Cover Affairs. Auggie was in the Army special forces before getting blinded. Now he's a CIA tech guy.
The whole show is about the CIA and the lady who played Maggie is one of the stars.
As for Justified, it's about a US Marshal, Raylan Givens, from Harlan, Kentucky. The show takes place in Lexington. Because of this, and the fact that Eliot is from Kentucky, I simply made them cousins. :D
I originally hadn't included Stargate, but then I listened to the season four DVD commentaries. :sigh:
John Rogers and Chris Downey had wanted to put a flashback in season two's first episode of Eliot in the Stargate gear with the gate behind him griping about this being the last time he was going through. Sadly for them, the Stargate from the first movie had been dismantled.
This promptly gave me ideas.
But it keeps them away from said ankles for a bit. ;)
You would think that since I want to do this for a living I'd get better at dealing with deadlines.
Excuse the rambling, it's late and I'm bored.
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 09:01 am (UTC)Stargate. On the show?! Whoa, that would be soooo cool. I saw a comment somewhere about some Stargate symbols on the walls in the Last Dam Job? Something like that?
Deadlines. Ha. I laugh in the face of deadlines. *it's late here, too, so please excuse the bad pun*
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-07-31 09:28 am (UTC)Yes! I heard that and ran to tell my husband who is a big Stargate fan. He has the first movie, all three series, and the tie in movies. The symbols from the original Stargate are on the wall of the vault they blew up in the Last dam Job. Dean Devlin saved the tiles from the dumpster after they had finished filming the first movie.
If you have the Leverage DVD's you should listen to the commentaries. (If not, buy them when you can.) They are funny, informative, and there's always alcohol involved. You can hear cans being opened, and liquor being poured.
Lol. I'm used to puns. The hubby loves puns.
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-08-01 06:17 am (UTC)Awesome...
I haven't gotten the dvds yet, but I will. :)
Ooh, that's good then. For a moment there, I was afraid I'd be PUNished for punning! :P
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-08-01 09:47 am (UTC)The audio commentaries make the price of the DVD's worth it. They do commentaries for every episode, and some of the cast joined in for seasons three and four. (Mainly Beth Riesgraf and Aldis Hodge.)
Oh, look, more puns. How cute... ;P
Also: It's August and I haven't started writing yet! Eek!
Re: Leverage/Angel fill, Distinctive Part 2
Date: 2012-08-02 04:08 am (UTC)I have the dvds for Seasons 1-3, but not 4 yet. I agree; the commentaries are sooo worth it!
Pun? Pun where? I don't know what's hap-pun-ing!
Uh-ohhhh. I'm kind of thinking the same thing about my birthday fic (that's one one-shot for every year...done annually. I've written them for the last 3 years).
