Evil! I am eagerly awaiting the conclusion to this fic.

[celtic_flicka]

Thanks! I'm working on it right now.

Ooh! Ooh ooh! Sooooooooo good.

I loved the part where Spencer fell asleep in the car on the way home, and the part where she told her father "poorly constructed bike ramp".

Very much looking forward to Part 4!

I'm glad you liked it!

this is sweet your version of eliot Dad is different than mine but I really like it by the way I saw the end coming I did something similar in Rise! anyway nice job!

I haven't read any Leverage kid-fics at all, because I didn't want anyone else's story to influence mine. Any similarities are purely coincidental--besides, it makes a good plot point to have a kidnapping when Eliot's a retrieval specialist, doesn't it? :)

[meghan_84]

true...thats why I did it too. Can't wait to see how he handles it.

I love the way you wrote the interactions between Eliot and little Spencer. I also like the family-ness of the rest of the Leverage team. I almost feel sorry for whoever dared to kidnap her, because Eliot is so going to kick their asses. Can't wait for the final part.

Thanks! I like the idea of the others (especially Hardison and Parker) adopting Spencer as their little team mascot. :)

And you can be assured that however this turns out, there most definitely will be an ass-kicking coming.

Really enjoying it. I especially liked the awkwardness of their first meeting as dad and daughter. Must be hard for Eliot, having this whole past and life that he can't really talk about.

Can't wait to see what happens next.

I just read something (in an article about unemployment) that talked about how much adults talk about their jobs without realizing it. Whenever we meet someone for the first time, it's all "What do you do?" So I wondered what someone like him would say, when he can't really tell the whole truth to someone who he wants to be close to.
