leverage season 1: let’s help a hardworking, honest young patriotic veteran w/ a disability who just wants to get back to the workforce
leverage season 3: let’s steal a federal witness and set him up for murder, fuck the courts. let’s steal the department of defense it’s not treason as long as we give it back probably.
leverage finale: lets fucking find out every company who got a government bailout they didn’t earn after the crash and DESTROY THEM. destroy the us banking system destroy the companies let’s take on interpol to do it goddammit
leverage if they’d gotten another season, presumably: lets travel back in time and kidnap george washington and then steal the declaration of independence and erase all eagles from existence by stealing the first ever eagle
leverage the movie: Donald Trump is president. Let’s go steal America.
there’s a lot of heinous tropes out there but can we agree that “1000 year old woman looks like an eternal 10-year-old” is probably one of the fucking worst
you’re right! i’m a fool!
There’s actually a take on this that’s pretty amazing. It’s not a girl, so it doesn’t subvert the creepy Lolita thing, but a teenage boy vampire in Sean McMullen’s Moonworlds Saga. He has had two pimples on his face since he was turned that WILL NOT GO AWAY because he’s a vampire and he doesn’t really age/change. He’s had them so long he’s given them names, and also, he’s super pissed no one takes him seriously despite his super long lifespan because he looks about twelve.
