Awww... this was so sweet. The idea of more people out in the world who care about Parker warms my heart - along with the team trusting her judgment enough to drop a job on her say-so. Well done.

Thank you! Yeah, backstory's kind of thin on most of the characters in the show, but Parker especially I think deserves more people looking out for her.

Loved it!

Leverage is one of the few shows that I just adore all the main characters. Spot on for Parker and nice little back story for them both.

Thank you! Yes, I feel that way about both these shows actually, except when they're playing up the romantic angst factor on Eureka (ugh). Glad you enjoyed the story!

Yay! You've meshed two of my favorite shows in a wonderful way! Excellent characterization and voice, and your backstory to Carter & Parker is very believable. Thank you very much for writing & sharing this!

Glad you enjoyed the story! When the episode aired recently mentioning that Parker had been in juvie for six months when she was twelve, I thought "hmm, they didn't say where, did they? And it had to've been before Archie..." Connecting the dots was kind of fun.

Great story. Love how you write.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. *hugs both these shows*

Oh yeah.

So awesome and fun. It's interesting to imagine what the leverage crew think of Jack based on Parker's descriptions of him.

jedibuttercup November 17 2010, 01:00:28 UTC

Heee, yeah. I might have to write more in this 'verse at some point.

Glad you enjoyed the story!
