I hope your son feels better soon, fevers are horrible.

Only a couple of seconds - he looked at it as he shook off that last punch, which is not quite normal. (http://i.imgur.com/eLcCq.jpg) But after last week having it pointed out that he took two weeks off (haha - which awesomely fitted with airing dates) after putting his hand through a mirror, I've been a bit obsessive.

ETA: Weeks off *punching*. I was getting really naffed off the episode before while he was dancing around with spades and shit while Hardison was suffocating - that fight seemed to take inordinately long given what was at stake. But I can kind of take that as an explanation, and want to write the scene where it's negotiated that Eliot doesn't punch anyone unless they punch him first.

It's the part of me that's driving towards 'damaged!eliot' that I haven't had any time to write for recently.

I've just watched again and - though I might be projecting a little - there's a first punch and then every other hit is made with open hand, a weapon or some other part of his body.
