Competence Porn

[renisanz]

Listening to the commentary, I learned a new term. "Competence porn" is when we see the team doing whatever is it they do, their special skill, well. It also involves seeing the members of the Leverage team plan out and execute the job. Generally, it will involve something like Alec Hardison sitting at the computer, spouting technobabble and working his hacker magic.

So, uhm... appropriate gif is appropriate:

Cuz Hardison taking off his shirt was totally part of the con.

Um, it's competence porn. *g* Rogers describes it as "watching people do the jobs they're very good at doing."

But the gif still totally fits because Aldis is very good at the stud puppy thing, and I'm sure none of minds watching that. lol!

Oh. That makes sense. I heard "confidence" and it made sense in context, since they are doing cons, so... Yeah. Thanks for the clarification. :)

You're welcome.

I've been reading through your P/H shipper manifesto, and I really like it. You've hit all the wonderful little moments in their unfolding relationship. Nicely done!

Thank you. There are a few moments I'd like to go back and add, but I had to be selective because of the wordcount constraints.

Why does he have to wear a shirt at all, ever? DAMN. *starts to drool a little*

And I like watching Eliot hit things. He's very good at it. :P

Well, if he went shirtless all the time, I think we would all be too distracted from the plot. :)

Okay, now I want to watch Leverage.

Mission accomplished. :)

I found this post (*swoon*) when I was admiring your P/H sketches, and realized that I really don't want to miss any of your Leverage posts, since P/H are my new OTP. May I friend you?

Oh, that's totally fine. :) I'm not particular about friending, since I mostly blog about fannish things. Thanks for asking.
