Queliot

Queliot is the slash ship between Quentin Coldwater and Eliot Waugh from The Magicians fandom.

Season 1
UNAUTHORIZED MAGIC

Quentin walks through some kind of magic portal and onto the grounds of a school. Confused by his surroundings he walks up to the building to see a man lying on the sign, smoking. The man looks Quentin over, before asking if he's Quentin Coldwater. Quentin confirms so, and the man hops down. He introduces himself as Eliot, tells Quentin that he's late and to follow him, quickly walking away. Confused, Quentin follows him and asks where he is, Eliot telling him that he's at Brakebills and was offered the exam, and continues to lead him to his exam.

Quentin is getting settled into his room when Eliot bursts in with Margo, who starts examining before Eliot starts to take him on a tour of the school and how everything works. Two people pass them, looking incredibly depressed, and asks who they are. Eliot tells Margo not to say, but Margo thinks they should. Eliot tells Quentin that most of the third year class vanished and those were two of the four left, but doesn't want to focus on it and decides to go find something to smoke.

THE SOURCE OF MAGIC

After an attack on Quentin's class, Eliot and Margo come by to check on him and take them back to the Physical's kids cottage. Out on the porch, Quentin tells Eliot about the spell that he and Alice performed, which Eliot sums up that they messed up. Eliot thinks its really bad, but Eliot tells him that there's a bad story every couple of years, it's unavoidable. Quentin tells Eliot that he's done at Brakebills if he confesses, but can't go back to the mortal world. Eliot gives him a spell to stop the possibility of having his mind read, which Quentin thanks him for. He asks if Eliot can now help him live with the guilt, and Eliot decides it's time for a personal moment. He tells Quentin how he discovered his magic when he killed a man who used to beat him on accident. He wants Quentin to know that he's not alone, and that magic comes from pain.

After talking to the headmistress, Quentin is walking with all of his books, which Eliot see's. Eliot wants to know what he's doing, Quentin telling him that he's returning everything, since his life at Brakebills is over. Eliot says not to say that, but Quentin tells him that they're bringing in a specialist. Eliot is silence, which Quentin knows is bad. Eliot says that he's sorry as Quentin tries to justify not knowing about magic, but he'd rather choose the knowing. Quentin says that Eliot doesn't need to make him feel better since they just met, but Eliot bonds fast. Eliot tells Quintin to not be the old him, but Quentin doesn't know how. He asks if there's a way to avoid having his memory wiped, but Eliot doesn't know.

CONSEQUENCES OF ADVANCED SPELLCASTING

Quentin is talking with Alice, when Eliot walks up ad says that he needs his help, high priority. He pulls Quentin away to a side room where there is a box on the table. He explains that at one of the Physical Cottages parties a book was stolen by someone, and if they don't find it they'll end up in trouble. The box shakes and Quentin asks what's inside. Eliot opens the box, and a book flies out, Eliot quickly explaining that they can be used to find the first volume.

The two go to New York, where the book leads them to a store. Eliot checks it over and see's that it's warded by Hedge Witches. He tells Quentin to let him do the talking as they enter the store. They get to a backroom where there are a large group of witches, Quentin's friend Julia among them. Eliot accuses them of having their book, which the witches deny but their own book finds the other one. They leave but Julia follows them out, and confronts Quentin. Eliot tells him to ignore her, which he doesn't.

Back at the cottage, Quentin and Eliot are drinking as Quentin thinks about Julia and how things turned bad between them. Eliot says that life happens like that, and pours Quentin a glass of wine, but they're interrupted when Kady busts open the door to the cottage as part of her entrance.

MENDINGS, MAJOR AND MINOR

Eliot is drinking with Alice when Quentin pulls him away to talk. He asks about Cancer Puppet, the unofficial Physical kids mascot, which Eliot takes him too. Quentin tells him that he's going to try a spell on cancer puppy to cure him. Eliot helps Quentin prepare the spell, but when he performs it, cancer puppy dies.

IMPRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

Quentin wakes up in the middle of the woods, only to see Eliot sitting close by at a fancy table. Eliot gives vague directions for the next test, and Quentin sarcastically asks if he has to spear a fish, but Eliot doesn't give him an answer, and disappears. Quentin calls to him but doesn't get an answer.

THE STRANGLED HEART

Eliot is with his new boyfriend Michael, when Alice and Quentin return from Breakbill South. Eliot introduces them to each other and asks how their trip was. Quentin stammers through an answer, and Eliot can immediately tell that they got together while down there. Alice and Quentin deny it but Eliot just suggests more awkward situations that happened up there. The two then awkwardly leave.

Quentin is studying when Eliot shows up with a pile of clothes, claiming he has nothing to wear. Quentin suggests going to Margo but she's not here, so Eliot had no choice but to turn to him. When Quentin says that everything looks the same to him, Eliot realizes his mistakes and tells him to leave. Quentin reminds him that he was there first, but he's also never actually seen Eliot care about something. Eliot says that there normally isn't much to care about, Quentin reminding him of his few exceptions, which Eliot agrees with. He still wants Quentin to leave.

THE WRITING ROOM

Quentin and Alice walks into the Physical Cottage, but stop short when they see Eliot. Eliot asks where they're taking a flight too, and Quentin tells him England. Eliot says that they don't need a plane since he and Margo made a door to their favorite pub there. He'll let them use it, as long as he can come with since he's bored. Quentin is about to say that he doesn't even know what's going on, but Eliot says he'll catch up.

The three, along with Penny, end up at Christopher Plover's house and sneak in at night. They find some documents that reveal that Plover was missing before being pronounced dead, meaning that the truth of his death was a lie. Eliot asks why they would lie, Quentin explaining that the Chatwins going to Fillory made it look bad for Plover and find out he was studying magic. They hear something and find a man who warns them to get out. Eliot gets him to talks and he starts to explain about Plover but suddenly the lights start to go flicker and he disappears. The group find him dead, and Eliot suggests they leave. Penny and Quentin run out before Quentin realizes that Alice and Eliot are still in the house and runs back.

Alice, Eliot, and Quentin eventually get out of the house, and find each other outside. Quentin explains that the Plover's were literally the worst people on the planet, and gets the idea that Plover might be the beast, but they also have to find the button...in the pocket of a dead body.

REMEDIAL BATTLE MAGIC

After bottling up their emotions and returning them to their body's, Quentin and Eliot go back to the cottage and are drinking in front of the fireplace. Eliot asks if he thinks that anything from the Fillory books are real, Quentin believing that at least some of the good parts have to be. He asks why, Eliot says that it's because he probably has liver damage and that they're out of wine. Eliot begrudgingly tries to get up and get some but falls over. They end up laughing and giving a toast before Quentin downs the rest. Margo and Quentin carry a drunk Eliot back to his room, and they all fall on the bed together causing Eliot to pass out. They start to think about Eliot and how much of him is hurt. Quentin wakes up in bed the next morning, with a naked Eliot and Margo beside him. He flashes back to the night before and realizes he had a threesome with them.

THIRTY-NINE GRAVES

Quentin, Alice, Margo, Penny and Eliot are in the cottage after the night before. Penny tries to tell them what they need to know about the fountains, but Quentin keeps thinking about his threesome with Eliot and Margo. Penny catches on that something is up, but Eliot and Margo just say that everything is fine, but Quentin admits that its not. Alice gets angry at him and walks away. Eliot jokes about the situation, but Quentin tells him to stop. Eliot still thinks it's all hilarious.

Quentin is still angry at Margo and Eliot, although Eliot thinks that they should get a pass because of the emotion magic involved. Quentin says that they ruined his life, Margo thinks Quentin did that to himself, and Eliot just wants to skip to the part where they transport themselves to another world.

Season 2
KNIGHT OF CROWNS

The gang returns to the knife makers place, as Quentin finishes telling why Julia did what she did. Eliot gets it, but it's still pretty dumb. Quentin says that she's not sane right now, Eliot asks what they need to do and everyone agrees that they still need to kill the Beast. Quentin looks into the Fillory books, and discovers a possible place to find information, but it's only accessible to the King and looks to Eliot. Eliot's okay with that, and tells everyone to grab a snack before they all head out (minus Penny and Margo).

They try and stop the carriage for the King, but discover that they can't get on unless Eliot is crowned King. Quentin looks through the books and discovers that they have to go to a specific place of coronation. Eliot asks about the other kings and queen's and Quentin tells him that he gets to pick them. He then asks if he can be one, which Eliot sarcastically asks if he would prefer that he picked Penny. They need to cross the rainbow bridge, but they don't have a map. Quentin knows that Martin found the bridge with a spell, and Eliot suggests they do the same.

They arrive and meet Penny and Margo. They see a man laying down, and Eliot asks if he's alive. Quentin suggests going to the trunk but Penny just walks ahead. They discover that they have to know 90's trivia in order to pass the knights test, which Eliot does with a Patrick Swazey impression. He opens the box and takes out one of the crowns, as he's about to put it on Quentin tells him to stop. Quentin's full nerd comes out and he suggests that they do a ceremony since it will only happen once. He asks for the crown from Eliot, which he gives, and has him kneel. Eliot kneels, and Quentin starts his speech. He tell Eliot that he has royalty in his blood and thinks that he'll make a really good king. He asks what Eliot would like to be dubbed as King, and he really doesn't care but plans to be spectacular. He crowns him, and Eliot takes his hands to stand up thanking him. The group, newly crowned arrive at the castle where they are directed to the armory but it's almost entirely empty, but they do find one and realize that they have to get back to Breakbills, however Eliot cannot leave Fillory. Later, Quentin finds Eliot in the armory, and asks him to hold onto his crown while they're gone. Eliot asks if they're all packed, and Quentin starts to feel awkward. He starts to say thanks, and Eliot means about taking one for the team...for the rest of his life. Eliot says that he's trying to make the ruling thing an adventure, but their are so many problems, the biggest being that they don't know what champagne is, so he'll invent it. Quentin can't help but smile at him and sits beside him as Eliot asks about the weird time stuff between Earth and Fillory described in the books. Quentin confirms this, and Eliot wants to know if it happened all the time. Quentin can't give him an answer but says that everything is going to be fine. Eliot fake agrees, but also gives the worst possible option of never seeing any of them again. The sit in silence, when Eliot says that Quentin should probably hug him right now and Quentin hold him close.

THE COCK BARRENS

Quentin returns to Fillory and is doing some kind of ritual, which Eliot and is confused by. Margo explains that Quentin is calling to a Niffin, you have to do something personal. Eliot assumes it's a sex thing, Quentin quickly yelling back that it's from Cique de Soliel. He tries to start over but Margo and Eliot stop him. Eliot tells him to come back to the castle for rest, and could possibly use the very large amount of problems that their country has to distract him. Quentin agrees but he has to go to the memorial for Alice tomorrow, but he'll be back.

PLAN B

Eliot and Margo are researching in the Physical Cottage when Quentin walks in. Eliot asks how Quentin has been since the memorial, Quentin replies that he's managing. He asks how things are, and Eliot explains that they're at war, and broke. Realizing they're all in a similar boat, he asks how they would feel about robbing a bank. They're both impressed, but Quentin has to explain why first.

After robbing the bank, Penny is stuck inside and they're forced to go back in. Quentin is able to get him out using Alice in his head to calculate the code. Eliot eyes him as he puts it in, but Quentin just shrugs it off. They get inside just as the time runs out, but Quentin ends up setting off the alarms and summoning a security magician forcing them back in the vault. They think of possible ways out, Quentin asking about on of Eliots Wrecking Balls, but he says it was a one off. The door unlocks, just as they suddenly are repeating the same things and realizing that Julia is rewinding time. They try several times but can't get it and only have one left. They run out a final time but the Magician isn't where she was before. They turn around to see her. She makes a move for Quentin, but Eliot steps in front of him just in time and is seemingly killed. Quentin kneels on the ground next to him as Penny tells him to go. He asks about Eliot as he bleeds out, but Penny reminds him that it's a gholem and they need to go.

THE GIRL WHO TOLD TIME

Margo takes wine away from a drunk Quentin. She tells him she needs help with Eliot and his wedding. Quentin notes how mean Eliot is when needy, but Margo says that he needs Quentin to be Eliot's friend right now. Quentin, scared, agrees. Quentin returns from one of the tasks he had to do, seeing Eliot moving figurines around and assuming they're at war. Eliot says they're the place setting for the wedding. Quentin tells him that he has to go back to earth, which Eliot waves away. But Quentin says it's too help Julia and can't ignore it, since it was a vision. He says that he has to do it, and Eliot can tell. He walks over and hugs Quentin, but tell him if he misses the wedding he will kill him.

RAMIFICATIONS

Quentin is at a window in Breaksbill south when Eliot walks up to him. Quentin's confused, since Eliot can't leave Fillory. Eliot thinks, or is certain, that he was banished. Quentin says that this happened to Chatwins when their adventure would be over, but Eliot doesn't understand why other than probably it's because he's a fuck up. He asks for the button but Quentin had to give it to a dragon. Eliot is shocked, but can't express anymore when a resurrected Alice walks by.

Later, Eliot asks about the dragon, but Quentin starts to wallow about Alice. Eliot is forced to reassure him that everything will be fine, but he just drunkenly flops to the ground, Eliot deciding to join him. He reassures Eliot again, and asks about the dragon. Quentin tells him that there are more portals, but they're all completely unexpected except the first one they used. Eliot looks up the clock, and Quentin realizes that it was in the office of the man from his "Yale" interview. Eliot agrees and they go to find it.

They head to a place in Vancouver and Quentin is able to notice that the man who owns it is a major Fillory series fan, but realizes that he actually is from Fillory. Eliot uses some magic and see's the man's real face and he removes the disguise to reveal he's Umber.

Umber explains how he ended up there, and asks why they want to go back and a bunch of focus group questions for his new world. Eliot says they need to get back so they can fix his kingdom, but Umber just laughs. It turns out that really the only reason Eliot got banished was because Ember found his reign boring, and wanted more chaos, and to give up.

Quentin asks if Umber's actually going to let Ember throw Fillory into Chaos, and Umber just allows it. Quentin confronts Umber on him letting all go, but Umber won't do anything for Fillory anymore. Eliot tells him to give them the clock since they won't walk away, and convince's him to let them try.

They take the clock back to Breakbills South, and Eliot goes over their list of goals when they get there. Quentin sounds like they're going to conquor Fillory. Eliot says it's for it's own good, but Quentin reminds him that that was Martin Chatwins plan. He asks if Quentin has a better idea.

WE HAVE BROUGHT YOU LITTLE CAKES

Eliot is in the library, when Quentin walks up holding a tray. Eliot asks how Alice is, but Quentin doesn't want to talk. He asks if Quentin gave her the drink to not harm herself, which Quentin did, but she's still could mentally break down. Quentin slides to the ground in defeat, Eliot crouches down to talk to him. He tells him that he learned a lot as the king of Fillory, like that screw ups are inevitable, and even thought it sucks they have to still move forward. They have a plan, but need Quentin.

Season 3
BE THE PENNY Julia and Quentin are talking when suddenly Eliot and his family burst through the door and quickly lock it behind them. Quentin runs over and hugs him. Eliot tells them about the neither-lands, but Julia's distracted by Fray. Eliot says that she's his daughter, which confuses Quentin, but Eliot doesn't explain. He continues to tell how they got to Earth, and Julia and Quentin tell him about the Truth Key.

A LIFE IN THE DAY

Quentin asks if it was a good idea to send Fen and Fray into the city, but Eliot says it's fine since he sent Todd with them. They get back to the quest as Eliot looks through the book. He asks where they get the key, and Quentin points out a picture. Eliot asks what it is, and Quentin frustratingly has to explain it since it will give them the key at the end. Eliot's ready to go, but the Mosaic is in Fillory.

They go to the clock, but get rabbits from Margo asking for help. Eliot decides that it's time to move and use the key to open a portal. Quentin says they should gather everyone but the key pops out, Eliot taking it as a sign that it's just the two of them this time and goes through the portal. In Fillory they feel magic in the air and hug, but Q notices something wrong. The castle is still being built, meaning they ended up in the past.

As Quentin and Eliot walks to the mosaic, Quentin tells Eliot about the mosaic, and how someone had solved it before Jane. Eliot asks who, but Quentin doesn't know so it might be them. They arrive at the mosaic to see a man there who quits working on it for good. They gather all the pieces, and Quentin starts to figure out how many possibilities there are...there are a lot of zero's.

They finish the first possibility but nothing happens. Quentin starts to get frustrated by magic not working on the mosaic, Eliot trying to calm him down saying they can do it the old fashioned way, but Quentin thinks it's impossible. They argue, Eliot reminding Quentin that it's their quest, it may be hard, it may take awhile, but they'll finish it. He tells Quentin about how they can be the one's to do the mosaic for Jane, Quentin lamenting that he didn't think it would take a decade. Eliot tells him that they need to try.

They try another possibility, but it doesn't work frustrating Eliot. He falls over in exhaustion as Quentin tells him not to take it apart till he writes it down. They try several other possibilities, at one point a woman named Arielle comes by offering some peaches and plums. The two celebrate their first year of working on the mosaic with a toast. Quentin takes a drink, and then quickly kisses Eliot. Quentin smiles at him and Eliot leans in and kisses him. The next morning Quentin and Eliot attempt to talk about the previous night, but it becomes awkward and Eliot says they should leave their over thinking for the puzzle. Quentin agrees.

Several years go buy and the two argue over whether to continue with mosaic, Eliot accusing Quentin of wanting to live his life here. Arielle arrives at some point later, she and Quentin end up forming a relationship and eventually get married and have a son, Ted. Arielle ends up dying, and Eliot comforts Quentin through his grief. Years go by and Ted is finally old enough to set out on his own and they see him off. Even more years go by and they continue to work on the puzzle. One day, Quentin looks over at Eliot seemingly sleeping and calls to him, but Eliot is dead. Quentin wraps his body in a blanket, and starts to dig a grave, but find the real piece to solve the mosaic. He ends up giving the key to Jane and leaving a letter for Margo to find.

Margo is able to arrive in time to stop Eliot and Quentin from going back, as well as still having the keys and erasing the timeline. They sit around and discuss how Margo got here and the alternate timeline.

They get back to Fillory, where Quentin finds the letter. He sits down to read it, and Eliot joins him. The letter and the aroma of peaches and plums causes them both to suddenly remember the erased timeline. Their family. Quentin asks how they remember that, but Eliot has no idea.

DO YOU LIKE TEETH? Eliot finds Quentin apologizing for being late. Eliot asks if he's okay having to be a palace guard in his own castle, but really the uniform is just really hot. Eliot knows, but doesn't want the fairy queen to try and control Quentin as well. They go to another room to figure out more about the quest, Quentin figures that they key is in a part of the ocean called the Abyss. It's night the whole time there, but Quentin says that they're magical boat quest won't entirely suck. Eliot wants to go, but he needs to help Margo run Fillory. Quentin gets it, but he was really looking forward to going on the quest with him. Eliot jokes who wouldn't, but tells him that he can take Benedict, and mumbles about Quentin being life partners with someone else for a bit. He gives him a side hug and says that Quentin can finally do the thing he's waited his whole life to do at the front of the ship. Quentin asks what thing, Eliot answering with "the thing" and gives him a forehead kiss goodbye.

TWENTY-THREE

Quentin and Alice meet Eliot and Margo. Eliot tells them that them breaking into the castle put Tick on high alert, and now they've all got a bounty on their heads. Quentin tells them that Julia is now getting along with the fairies, much to Margo and Eliot's displeasure. Quentin suggests talking to Julia, but Eliot reminds him that they're all wanted. They suggest sending one person, but they're still wanted. Then Josh walks in and they get an idea.

WILL YOU PLAY WITH ME?

Quentin tells everyone about the plan to get magic back and keep the monster inside, but he would have to stay behind. Alice and Eliot immediately object, but Quentin reminds them of the own sacrifices they made in their quests. Margo proposes the god killing bullet, which Eliot seconds, but Quentin still says no. Eliot says that it's straight forward, but Quentin thinks it's better to do it the hard way.

Eliot decides to follow Quentin to the monster, and watches as he approaches it. As Quentin moves closer, Eliot fires the god killing bullet at the monster while Quentin screams no. Quentin says that they didn't agree to this, but Eliot says that he didn't agree to anything just decided not to let Quentin spend eternity guarding a monster. The knight dissapears, and Eliot decides it's time to go, pulling Quentin away. Quentin tells him that he spent to much time as a king, Eliot says that's not the issue.

After having all their memories wiped by the McAllisters, Quentin is seen walking out of a book store when "Eliot" suddenly appears in front of him. Quentin says that he made a mistake and is actually Brian. "Eliot" asks him to do a card trick, but Quentin just says that he has him mistaken for somebody else and walks away. Quentin constantly looks behind him before turning a corner, facing "Eliot" again. "Eliot's" eyes glow as he grabs at Quentin. It's actually the monster.

Fanon
Although many Magicians fans shipped the two, very few thought they would ever get together. This was due to the book series and prior experience with similar type of pairings. When the tv series depicted the possibility that the two would become a couple, many shippers thought it was too good to be true. Other saw it as media becoming more progressive, and being open to more queer couples in media than in previous years.

On AO3, Queliot is the most written ship for Quentin and Eliot, as well as the most written ship in The Magicians and The Magicians - Lev Grossman tags.
