Okay but consider:

Leverage urban fantasy
AU.

Nate is a reluctant vampire who got turned in the same
incident that killed his son. He only goes after bad guys, and he’s never
killed anyone (that he knows of) but substance abuse is substance abuse, and
the fact that he can’t look in a mirror and see how bad he looks gives Sophie
many a fretful morning of “You were out again all night, I can see it. You didn’t
even wash up” accompanied by grouchy grunts from a freshly-self-loathing Nate.

Eliot is a were-creature of some kind. No one knows what,
because no one who’s seen him fully transformed has lived to tell the tale.
Those who have seen glimpses just know there are a lot of teeth involved. A lot of teeth.

Parker isn’t quite girl and she isn’t quite ghost. She’s
stuck halfway between – the result of not getting out of a certain exploding
house quickly enough as a child – which makes snacking a task sometimes (and
kissing even more so) but the perks are worth it. Being able to literally walk
through walls has made her the world’s greatest thief.

Hardison is human. Completely and totally. But in a world
where vanilla humans are often prey, he’s learned to defend himself with a
grasp of both technology and actual magic that rightfully earn him the title “wizard.”
He frequently uses fictional mages as aliases and Eliot will never let him live
down the time a flustered “Agent Gandalf” got laughed out of an FBI field
office.

Sophie is fey – as fey as they come. No one knows how old
she is (and no one dares ask) and while her acting skills leave much to be
desired (the fey can’t actually lie, after all), when she casts a glamour it
takes a strong mind to see anything other than exactly what she wants them to
see.

Just imagine: magical
Leverage.
