Started watching Leverage over with a friend last night, and on rewatching the pilot there was one thing that really stood out for me. Rather than the usual trope of love bringing the bad guy to the side of the light you have this wonderful moment where Nate decides to try out being the black king, rather than the white knight, as they put it. And Sophie gets this look on her face and tells Nate “I always knew you had it in you.” And just, so often you have ships with different moralities, it’s the good guy luring the bad guy to their side. Loving away the bad or whatever. Leverage makes Sophie a better person, and Nate loses his white hat. Instead of one of them having to change for the relationship, over time they just settle into this wonderful grey area.
