Summary: Before they were criminals with hearts of gold, they were Eliot Spencer, retrieval specialist trying to make a break from Damien Moreau, and Nate Ford, insurance investigator and family man.  When Nate needs back-up on a dangerous job, he hires Eliot.  They immediately dislike each other.  Then they run afoul of a cartel enforcer, and Eliot has to decide just how far removed he is from being the man he was with Damien.

Notes: Many thanks to errant_evermore for the endless google chats over concept and narrative and for the snippets she added in chapters 2, 5 and 6.  Many thanks, too, to the awesome weaselett for moderating the challenge and for beta'ing much of this.  Any errors remaining are totally my own.

As noted, historical and geographical details may have been changed to protect the innocent to serve the needs of the story.  Also, please forgive the lack of proper punctuation on anything in Spanish - I'll get to that, I will.  Just not today.

Enjoy!

Summary: Nate goes to Ireland on family business and runs into trouble.  Good thing the team followed him.

Author's Notes: This is my first ever fanfic.  What can I say?  This silly little show inspired me.  I came up with the idea before last season started, when the press seemed to suggest to me that old marks might be coming back for revenge.  Well, needless to say, my idea of that and the show's are not exactly the same, so yeah, this is ever so slightly AU.  Still, the relationships are all canon - Nate/Sophie, hints of Parker/Hardison, Nate/Parker father/daughter, Eliot/Sophie friendship and, of course, Eliot/badassery.

Original character's name, Feichin Cleag, is pronounced FEH'cheen Cleeg.

Enjoy!
