Just watched The Big Bang Job again today and I rambled about this in an earlier post reblog but it deserves its own post..

The way Eliot dresses makes so much more sense after meeting Moreau and his goons. He rejects all notions of being anything like those well dressed men in their suits again. So blank and uniform, just another soldier in Moreau's private army.

That's why his shirt is always untucked, sleeves rolled up, collar unbuttoned. Not to mention the hair - the biggest rebellion is his hair. A constant reminder of who he is now that stays the same, no matter what he wears.

And it just makes me think how this is such a good representation of the identity crisis he went through (and let's be real, is still going through).

Eliot used to be one of those men. He had his hair short, wore the tailored suits and carried the guns. He didn't accessorise. He suppressed every aspect of an individual personality in order to fit the role that Moreau had for him.

Sure, we're not blatantly told all of those things in the show, but we can infer, simply from looking at Moreau's goons and how they're presented.

Seeing Eliot surrounded by those goons in the pool scene is more than just showing us the threat to Eliot and Hardison - and also the threat that Eliot and his reputation present. It's about showing us the demons of his past, the nightmare that he doesn't want to go back to. Eliot had alluded to his past before but it's been nebulous. Now, we finally see that past take shape and it's hideous.

But Eliot didn't stay like that. He got out - he got free - and he has been reclaiming pieces of himself ever since. Until, finally, he's the evolving Eliot that we know and love. He prefers to dress casual and relaxed, with strong reminders of his roots throughout. He keeps his hair long and loose - not military regulation, not 'professional' as far as male standards go, not even convenient for fighting. It's all a way of stealing himself back, and making sure the differences between who he was then and now are stark and vivid.

I could keep rambling but this is already twice as long as I intended. Just ... Eliot Spencer. He still doesn't view himself as a better man, never mind a redeemable man, but he is. When compared to those goons, his transformation is clear as day.

[save-the-villainous-cat]

Goofy and erratic villian with an exasperated and somewhat uptight hero who has a crush on the villain? Maybe the villain says something vaguely flirty on accident and the hero has to pretend they don’t like it (and fails miserably)

“Come on.” The villain grabbed the hero’s hands and pulled them towards the dance floor. Eyes glinting, excitement filled up the villain. “Fight me.”

Utterly unimpressed, the hero just rolled their eyes.

“No interest.”

“That’s not very diplomatic of you. Refusing the enemy’s suggestion to resolve our issues? Come on, it’ll be fun. Just a little bit of combat.” They pulled the hero close, grip tight around them as they led the hero through the song. “Or are you scared?”

“We’re calling combat ‘resolving issues’ now?” Their eyes went through the crowd, concentrating. Professional. Obviously, the hero didn’t have time for their nemesis but the villain didn’t care.

At this point, they took whatever fell into their hands. The hero was a master at hiding, at avoiding people and the villain was not going to let them slip through their fingers that easily.

“It’s like couples therapy for crazy people, don’t you think?” the villain asked. They tried to redirect the hero every time they spotted the supervillain among the many millionaires.

Admittedly, the villain had been on their hands and knees when they’d discovered that the hero was going to be here. They’d begged the supervillain to take them with them and thank god, the villain had been assigned to distract the hero.

It was their favourite activity.

“I can’t argue with that, I suppose.” The hero shrugged. “I am not interested in making a scene, though.”

“But it’s so much fun...” Again, the villain pulled them closer, staring through half-lidded eyes at that heroic face.

One time, the hero’s hard shell had cracked in front of the villain. Ever since, the villain tried to crack it again, not because they wanted to torment the hero but because they needed the hero to know that being imperfect and vulnerable was normal.

The hero forgot that they were human sometimes.

“You’re aware that I am going to crush you like a beetle, right?”

And the villain had seen other people lose their mind to that.

“Oh, I’d love that, baby,” the villain answered. The hero’s face remained emotionless.

“If you think that you can distract me with your cheap tricks, then you’re blithely unaware of the fact that I am the best in this business.”

The hero tried to get out of the villain’s grip but the villain knew the supervillain wasn’t done with their investigation yet. So, the villain had to get creative.

“I know you’re the best, that’s why I want to fight you again. Gives me a kick.” The villain brushed the hero’s ear with their lips. “It feels good.”

“Ugh, you’re annoying.” The hero grabbed the villain’s jaw and turned their head away from them. The villain had to giggle at that.

However. The villain also caught a glimpse of their red ears.

The hero was embarrassed.

“Come on, grumpy…you love me.” They couldn’t help but smirk. Annoying the hero was a hobby the villain would never be able to let go of. Sometimes, they committed a crime just for the hero to show up.

“I’m wasting my time with you.”

Unfortunately, the villain spotted their superior. Giving them a sign to go back to the lair.

“You mean you’re having fun,” they mumbled.

The hero was quiet and looked (as usual) quite dissatisfied as they let the villain guide them. They didn’t seem to be passionate about dancing at all. They didn’t seem to loathe it, either.

“Let me invite you on a date, then. You. Me. Tomorrow. Bring your best weapon,” the villain said. They squeezed the hero’s hip, making the other’s eyes widen and somehow, the hero seemed much more human with their red face and their avoidant gaze.

Almost as if they did like the villain after all.

The villain could live with that, though.

Taking Over the Canals: Amsterdam as a Personal Shopper

Amsterdam, the Venice of the North, is a city brimming with charm, history, and... shopping!  For fashionistas with an entrepreneurial spirit, becoming a personal shopper in Amsterdam can be a dream come true. But what does it take to navigate the bustling stores. 

Do you enjoy shopping? You can become a personal shopper at The Personal Shopper Agency if you love fashion.

Becoming an Amsterdam A-Lister: Building Your Brand

First things first, establish yourself as the go-to guru for all things style. Here's how:

Niche Down: Amsterdam caters to a diverse clientele. Do you specialize in vintage finds for the Nine Streets connoisseur, or modern looks for the De Bijenkorf shopper? Identify your ideal client and tailor your services accordingly.

Craft Your Online Presence: A website showcasing your style philosophy, experience, and client testimonials is essential. Be active on social media platforms like Instagram, where you can curate mood boards and highlight your Amsterdam shopping expertise.

Building Bridges, Not Breaking Budgets

Amsterdam offers a delightful mix of high-end boutiques and quirky independent stores for personal shoppers. Here's how to master the shopping scene:

Become a Boutique Buddy: Network with local shops and brands. Knowing store owners and sales staff allows you to access exclusive sales and hidden gems for your clients.

Embrace the Jargon: Learn essential Dutch shopping terms like "uitverkoop" (sale) and "korting" (discount). This will impress your clients and help you score the best deals.

The Personal Shopper's Secret Weapon

Tailor-Made Tours: Sure, Kalverstraat is a popular shopping street, but what about the Spiegelstraat with its antique stores? Craft unique shopping itineraries based on your client's interests and budget.

Embrace the Unexpected: Be prepared to venture beyond clothing. Perhaps your client needs help finding the perfect Delftware piece or a one-of-a-kind bicycle. Amsterdam offers a treasure trove beyond just fashion.

Minor TWST redesigns

This is not how draw my Savannaclaw boys (for now), but I've been meaning to for awhile because my friend and I have the same type of height difference they do.

My friend has box braids and a colored under-dye, meanwhile I got multiple piercings and red glasses that I wear so often, they might as well be fused to my face. I also gave them more melanin and freckles bc they're from a hot desert and I adore freckles. Freckle supremacy>>>>
