#he 1000% freezes in big bang and that's the most scared he's ever been

[smallblueandloud]

when eliot is scared he freezes. when hardison is thrown into the pool in big bang, he doesn't react at all -- and yeah, that's bone-deep trust in hardison's ability to get out alive. but it's also a very deep, animal fear of showing moreau any kind of weakness or attachment. eliot is a guy who knows how to take a punch and when it comes down to it, he crouches over his stomach and takes the fucking punch

#sb and l rambles #sb and l watches leverage #leverage #eliot spencer #we watched the carnival job tonight and like. yeah. he freezes up in the maze of mirrors #he tends to explode into action when he's angry -- but i argue we rarely see him freeze cause we rarely see him that scared #he 1000% freezes in big bang and that's the most scared he's ever been #his hands shake when he's disarming the bomb #part of the gloriousness of his relationship with parker and hardison is that they override that
