what space faith can occupy by Anonymous on AO3

Summary (from the author):

"Parker has never felt so bad at loving than when they pulled Hardison out of his grave."

Further plot summary (by blog admin):

A Parker character study & episode coda to The Grave Danger Job, exploring Parker’s thoughts and emotions.

Why I recommend it: I love how Parker’s perspective is written in this fic. It feels incredibly accurate to her character, and it’s a perfect coda to/extra scene for the episode. Angsty, beautiful, hits you right in the feels!

Leverage Fic Rec:

everything he needs by AppleJuiz on AO3

Summary (from the author):

This is how Parker knows she’s in love: because any other time she’s ever wanted something, she’s just taken it, but she doesn’t want to take Hardison, hoard him for herself when she doesn’t know how to love him right. She wants him to be happy. She wants to be what he deserves but if she can’t be, since she can’t be, she’ll… she’ll have to make sure he’s happy anyway.

Parker doesn’t know how to be in love with Hardison. She tries to get Eliot to do it for her.

Why I recommend it: One of my favourite Leverage fics ever! I highly recommend it. It feels incredibly true to Parker’s voice and it is wonderfully well-written. It’s a beautiful impression of Parker in the midst of her arc (season 4), trying to figure out love, emotions, relationships, and how to do "the right thing".
