this is what happens when you watch TWS with stevetony goggles on and imagine they’re in an #established relationship and think about how Tony’s name showed up on the Project Insight list (and also pretend CACW never happened)

The way Leverage handled Gina Bellman’s maternity leave was so beautiful

they gave her a whole character arc that was kind and gentle and introspective that led Sophie to wanting time to herself

I didn’t even realize it was a maternity leave until I read old interviews after I’d finished the show

they gave her character development so she could leave the show for most of a season and come back brighter and better and stronger

Sophie’s time off was so good. It was good in-show, and after discovering the out of show reasons for it’s even better

Attn: Joss Whedon.

There was also commentary by the show runners that they had to cut certain storylines short and not do what they wanted because Gina needed that.  And while there was an indication of regret that X storyline couldn’t be followed, both Rogers and Downey were very clear that Gina’s health and well-being during her pregnancy was 100% the priority.  Basically, yeah, it was sad they didn’t get to do the thing because of reality, but they got to do these other things instead AND Gina got to be happy and healthy and near/around people to support her during her pregnancy.

Again, Leverage and it’s show runners aren’t perfect bastions of inclusivity and narrative execution, but they actively try to do their best.  They make thoughtful and proactive choices and are protective and supportive of the people they work with to the best of their ability.  Not just to the edge of their willingness to do something, but to the best of their ability.

That thing where you happen upon a challenge and you roll with it and work it into things to the best of your ability and you wind up with something really excellent because of it that you wouldn’t’ve had otherwise.
