angelgazing | write all the cliches?

I want to write your version of the story! It is much happier! And I bet we could fit a few others in - amnesia, huddling for warmth, one bed at the inn, fake boyfriends, magical healing cock... what else is there?

We could totally fit more in! Um, umm. Accidentally married! Dick is temporarily deaged (...while trying to get Jason's memory back, obvs.) and Jason has to take care of him! Another experimental treatment has them swapping bodies!

I fear you.

That is a filthy and terrible lie.

Think of it! There's all the h/c of trying to get his memory back (... you know, kind of. As much as Dick as to agree to to make Batman STFU and stop looking at him like he's one step above a date-rapist. (Even though Dick is TOTALLY A GENTLEMAN, OKAY, they only cuddle and his hands aren't the wandering ones.)) only to have Dick finally caving because he TOTALLY FELL IN LOVE WITH HIS PLATONIC BED SHARING FAKE BOYFRIEND and then he ends up MAGICALLY HEALING JASON WITH HIS COCK.

It's a story of MAGIC, Vic. A story of magic.

I can't go with de-aging. I'm sorry. *hands*

But I am TOTALLY ON BOARD with PLATONIC BED SHARING/FAKE BOYFRIENDS and Jay being all FRUSTRATED, like, I THOUGHT WE WERE AN ITEM, DICK! WHY ARE WE NOT DOING ANYTHING? and Bruce and Alfred giving Dick the stinkeye about the whole thing, and Dick just being like, *shrug* It makes him happy and he's not trying to kill anybody, so I'm calling it a win.

That's fine, that's fine. I can see you don't really want ALL THE CLICHES. That's okay.

Because, honestly, AMNESIAC PLATONIC BED SHARING FAKE BOYFRIENDS! So, so many things I love. THEY ARE BASICALLY ACCIDENTALLY MARRIED, VIC. FAKE BOYFRIENDS HOW ARE ACCIDENTALLY MARRIED! :DD

I'm still not getting dragged into your weird masochistic new OTP though. I WANT SHINY HAPPY THINGS. GIVE ME ALL THE SHINY HAPPY THINGS.

I need to leave some of the cliches for you, clearly.

AMNESIAC PLATONIC BED SHARING FAKE BOYFRIENDS!

EVERY TIME I THINK ABOUT THIS IT MAKES ME SMILE A HUGE GOOFY SMILE! I have needed that a lot this week.

I'm still not getting dragged into your weird masochistic new OTP though.

I AM GIVING THIS ONE A HAPPY ENDING! IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE! *rimshot* You have to read it if I write it. Them's the RULES. I mean, it's AMNESIAC FAKE BOYFRIENDS WHO PLATONICALLY SHARE A BED! WITH PINING AND PUNCHING AND MAKEOUTS! WHY WOULDN'T YOU READ IT?

EVERY TIME I THINK ABOUT THIS IT MAKES ME SMILE A HUGE GOOFY SMILE!

THAT IS BECAUSE IT IS MADE OF MAGIC AND JOY, VIC. MAGIC AND JOY. AND CAPSLOCK.

:D ::bows:: Glad I could be of service.

I'm pretty sure that short of, you know, one of those pairings that mess with my OTPs, I would read that story with just about anyone.

I'm pretty sure that short of, you know, one of those pairings that mess with my OTPs, I would read that story with just about anyone.

Well, since I will be subjecting you to it as I write it, that's good to hear.

As long as you are away that I will drag you kicking and screaming away from the angst and into HAPPY FUNTIMES LAND. :D

I'm counting on it!

It will be sweet enough to give cavities, dammit.

Better get it written before the Inception fandom gets too many cliches. ;D

I fear it may already be too late for that. LOL It seems like there is more Inception fic after a couple of months than Glee (okay, so I've never looked at the het side of that fandom) had after an entire season. It's mind boggling.

I don't even get the Glee fandom. We're given such a great universe to play in and such great cliches to toy with and we all write the same damn fics over and over and over again. Most of fandom doesn't even write or read fic. It's all discussion, I swear.

And it's all like, mpreg and rape fic! I love cracky schmoopy fic more the the average fangirl, and half the stories in that fandom drive me nuts. LET THEM BE BOYS, GLEE FANDOM, IT'S WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THEM.

Of course, I still can't figure out my bakery fic enough to finish it, which is the most annoying thing in the entire world. :\

Not gonna lie, I'm a sucker for rape!hurt/comfort fic. It's the only trope my friends let me like. XD I prefer crack/humor which is sorely lacking in this fandom. At least well-written crack/humor. Also porn. And believable future-fic.

I'm okay with mpreg if it's, like, Harry Potter. Otherwise I just... no. No way. Absolutely not.

Hmm.... Everyone gets high from Nona's special recipe cupcakes and there's an orgy? Have you had a baking supply food fight yet? What pairing is it, if there's one at all?

I can read just about anything if it's well written. I've read mpreg before that I actually enjoyed! But, uh, I... haven't exactly seen any that have blown me away, you know? I know I've seen a rape fic that handled the topic very well, but the writing and characterization was done so badly I couldn't get through it. :\

And I agree about the crack/humor. God, I love that. That's also part of Inception becoming my new happy place, I think. There is hilarious fic! There is fic that is well written! The characters get to be complex and well-rounded! There is cracktasticness and awesomeness and for every story that can rip my heart out and stomp on it, there is one that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy and inside. I want that for Glee so, so much, and it just fails to live up to the potential I can see for it, and it makes me sad.

I have totally had the baking supply food fight. They had a food fight with Skittles and candy hearts, okay. I clearly have no room to be talking about how the fandom needs more well-written fic, since I'm clearly not going to be contributing to it. It's Puck/Kurt, cause... that's how I roll. But they are being ridiculous and Puck is pining a lot. I'm the biggest sucker in the world for pining, apparently.

Have a snipit of terribleness!

"You did not," Kurt howls, in outrage that is at least sixty-five percent faked, a rough edge to his cries from the laughter he's trying to hold at bay. Kurt ducks under Puck's arm to round the table behind him in a flash. He starts rapid-firing the candy hearts Quinn is using at Puck's head one after another.

Sometimes, Puck looks at Kurt and it's like the breath gets knocked out of him, like getting tackled during a game. It can blindside him, leave him on the ground with bruised ribs and the heavy weight of missed opportunities and want sitting on top of him, holding him down.

And sometimes, Kurt laughs like he means it, loud and bright and happy, and Puck can't do anything but stand there and smile stupidly, because most times Puck gets to take responsibility for it. Puck used to worry that he'd never have something to be proud of, not really, but nothing—not even PuckCakes—could make him more proud of himself that Kurt's mouth stretched in a smile, even if it happens while Kurt is lobbing hard candy at him with better aim than Finn ever had on the field.

Still, Puck has no choice—no choice—but to grab a bag of Skittles and defend himself as Kurt tries to stay ducked behind Quinn for cover. Brittany dives behind the other side of the table, undoubtedly digging for more ammunition. Quinn keeps moving out from in front of Kurt and laughing as she spins from one side to another, and it's about two seconds from turning into a three-against-one fight anyway, so Puck starts throwing candies by the handful, with a war cry of, "Taste the fucking rainbow!"

I want to see Inception but I'm afraid that I'll be sucked into the fandom and I can't do two fandoms at once and I JUST REALLY LIKE GLEE, OKAY? XD

Glee.... Needs to mature. And that's all there is to it. It won't happen this season, but I suspect around the third and fourth seasons we'll get some really good stuff. A loooot of the fandom is new to fandom in general or is too young to write mature fic.

AND OH GOD I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS FIC, OKAY? AND ALSO YOU BETTER BE GIVING OUT FREE CUPCAKES WITH THIS FIC BECAUSE NOW I HAVE THE WORST SWEET TOOTH EVER. Maybe I'll go buy some frosting and make cupcakes tomorrow....

BUT DON'T SAY YOU'RE SHIT WHEN YOU AREN'T. I KINDA REALLY LOVE THIS SNIPPET. I AM DYING TO SEE THE REST.

You need to have Kurt sucking on a lollipop and Puck turning to absolute goo over it. Just saying. 8D

I'm not going to lie, the Inception fandom is pretty much a dream come true, for me. I don't know how or why. It's MAGICAL. It's like... everything I could want, it just appears! Having two fandoms is totally doable! And, and it gives you a place to turn when one of them is frustrating you! I... actually have a lot of fandoms. My friends say their fandom is like their boyfriend, and I'm out there slutting it up with whatever fandom looks attractive. But whatever, I always have fic to read.

Glee really does need to mature. And I'm sort of waiting for a big wank to start, because I think that's the only way a lot of them will learn what they're doing wrong? Warnings! WARNINGS ARE YOU FRIENDS. Also, stop turning Kurt into a Mary Sue, dammit. But I realize it's just that most of the people in that fandom haven't been IN a fandom long enough to learn the ropes of proper do's and don't's.

I am giving out recipes in the fic? LOL I'm TOTALLY RESEARCHING, okay. Every food thing mentioned actually exists, and I am helpfully linking to them, because lord knows I could never successfully make a quarter of them. lol It's not that I can't cook, it's that I get bored halfway through and go to check my f-list and forget I have something in the oven. /o\

But thank you! LOL I'm really just showing you the parts I don't hate as much as the rest though. It's... UGH. I don't even know.

Um. I have Kurt chewing on a pen?

Mondays are the days when Kurt lets himself have a treat. And Puck get to be the one to pick it out, always trying to out-do himself. Puck spends more time planning on what he'll make Kurt than he does the specials for the rest of the week.

Kurt rolls in around five, with gallon-sized thermoses of his prissy gourmet specialty coffee for each of them, and a garment bag slung over his shoulder with his outfit of the day. He's wearing knee-high boots, old men's soft, light blue cotton pajamas, a knit cap, three scarves, and an oversized red coat. He still has the faint traces of lines from creases in his pillow on his cheek, and the buttons on his shirt are pearly white and gigantic.

He almost faceplants on the counter next to where Puck is standing, and Puck laughs, flicks the back of his neck softly, and hands him a plate. This week, he's gone with chocolate and raspberry filled crepes. Kurt hums happily around his first bite, and licks the tines of his fork clean before he passes Puck his coffee. The coffee is bliss, the way it is every week, no milk and the perfect amount of sugar.

They sit in the near dark and eat breakfast, drinking their coffee out of personalized mugs that Brittany and Beth had painted for them one afternoon when business was slow and Shelby was in the mood for something sweet. They don't talk about work, because once their plates are clean that'll be their entire lives for the next five and a half days. The only sound in the place is the radio playing songs they used to sing and the ovens humming along.

1. I vote yes on this!
2. ALL OF THEM!
3. You are a liar.
4. I thought of you when I read that one!
5. \o/ woo!
6. But two is better than one!
7. I told you you were a liar!
8. ...you mispelled "awesome" again.

Ah, you know me too, too well. Or I'm a worse liar than I thought. And I thought I was pretty terrible. lol

BUT WHICH CLICHES COULD I USE? ACCIDENTALLY MARRIED BODY SWAPPING THAT STARTS BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE ROOM AT THE INN? PRETENDING BE BOYFRIENDS TO SETTLE A BET AFTER THEY GET LOCKED IN A CLOSET ONLY TO FALL IN LOVE?

How can I not think of any more cliches?

HOW ABOUT THE SECRET EPISTOLARY ROMANCE THAT STARTED BY ACCIDENT WHEN THEY WERE YOUNG AND THEN THEY MEET IRL BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHO THE OTHER REALLY IS AND THEY HATE EACH OTHER ON SIGHT BUT ONLY BECAUSE ONE IS THE OTHER'S BOSS AT THE OFFICE AND THEY ONLY START TO LIKE EACH OTHER WHEN THE RECEPTIONIST ORGANIZES A SECRET SANTA AND THEN THEY ARE BOTH CONLICTED BECAUSE THEY ARE BOTH IN LOVE WITH TWO PEOPLE ONLY THEY ARE REALLY ONLY IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER?

OH MY GOD.

EAMES IS TOTALLY THE BOSS PERSON AT THE NEW PLACE WHERE ARTHUR WORKS. ARTHUR WAS HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER AND ACCEPTED THE POSITION BECAUSE HE'D HEARD GREAT THINGS ABOUT EAMES. BUT HE'S GETTING COFFEE ACROSS THE STREET ON HIS FIRST DAY, AND RUNS INTO THIS GUY WHO IS DRESSED IN AN ILL-FITTING SUIT THAT TOTALLY PAIRS BLACK AND NAVY BLUE AND ARTHUR DIES A LITTLE MORE INSIDE EVERY TIME HE SEES A TRAGEDY LIKE THAT. AND THE GUY IS ALL SWARMY AND FLIRTY AND CALLING HIM PET NAMES AND BEING REALLY AMUSED AND SORT OF A JACKASS ABOUT HOW MUCH ARTHUR CLEARLY DISAPPROVES OF HIS EVERYTHING. AND THEN ARTHUR GETS TO THE OFFICE AND REALIZES--JFC THAT IS EAMES? WHAT HAS HE GOTTEN INTO?

EXACTLY! ARTHUR DOESN'T KNOW HOW IT'S POSSIBLE TO BE THAT SUCCESSFUL AND STILL BE SO UNBELIEVABLY FASHION-BLIND! HE WRITES TO HIS PENPAL ABOUT HIS HORRIBLE, UNPROFESSIONAL BOSS AND HIS TERRIBLE GAFFE (but not in details, otherwise Eames would catch on pretty quick, I think) AND THE PENPAL IS VERY SUPPORTIVE AND TELLS HIM ABOUT HIS NEW UNDERLING WHO IS CHARMING IN A WET-KITTEN WAY!

You could also work in the clichè about MISUNDERSTANDING! Like, maybe Cobb comes to pick up Arthur from work because it's Philippa's Bday or something and Eames sees them and thinks that Arthur has a BOYFRIEND! AN OLD BOYFRIEND AT THAT! INSERT PINING AND NOT-REALLY-UNREQUITED LOVE! Maybe Eames sees Cobb being lovey with Mal at some point and is convinced that ARTHUR IS THE OTHER WOMAN AND COBB IS STRINGING HIM ALONG! INSERT POSSESSIVE/PROTECTIVE EAMES TO THE RESCUE! Except that Arthur doesn't know about this and Cobb doesn't tell him about the misunderstanding because he's just really embarassed. Eames is totally more chirpy afterwards, though.

MAYBE THEY ENDED UP PENPALS BECAUSE EAMES ACCIDENTALLY EMAILED THE WRONG PERSON, AND ARTHUR CAN'T REMEMBER WHY IT IS THAT HE RESPONDED, OR HOW THEY ENDED UP DISCUSSING 19th CENTURY LITERATURE AND THE NEW TARANTINO FILM, BUT HE'S PRETTY SURE HE'S BEEN IN LOVE WITH ALLFORGEUDARLING@HOTMAIL.COM FOR SO LONG HE'S FORGOTTEN WHAT IT'S LIKE TO NOT BE.

Oh, OH! OR COBB TOTALLY DOESN'T TRUST EAMES! SO HE PRETENDS THAT, YES, HE IS TOTALLY HAVING THE SEX WITH ARTHUR, SO EAMES SHOULD STOP SEXUALLY HARASSING HIM. And Arthur is sort of all, "WTF, Cobb" and looking at him like he's a lunatic when Cobb shows up to meet him for lunch and puts a hand on the small of his back because Eames is watching, or wraps an arm around his shoulders. And Eames comes up all *stompstompfume* ARTHUR, BUSINESS LUNCH, LAST MINUTE, VERY IMPORTANT PARTNERS, COME WITH ME NOW. And Cobb is all *squintsquintglare* and Arthur is all, "Dom, I'm so sorry." And Cobb is all, "No, no, it's fine. Important opportunity." But still with the glaring at Eames. And Eames is BEAMING, because he totally won this round! So Cobb, like, "Mal and I totally expect you for dinner, this weekend," and like trails his hand down Arthur's spine. And Arthur narrows his eyes, and looks back and forth between Cobb's sudden smirk and Eames' face dropping into something almost threatening, and hates every single thing about his life, but mostly how very, very hot he finds Eames--HIS BOSS--when he looks at him like that.

Later, when he gets back from an expensive lunch on the company's dime that he was absolutely not needed or prepared for, he sends an email to allforgueudarling that consisted solely of a demotivational poster and the subject line, "my best friend is either trying to ruin my career or invite me into a threesome with his wife." He has no doubt that his penpal--obviously the only sane person in his life--will be able to better sort of which one Arthur would prefer. He's wrong, of course. Three minutes later, he gets an email in return that says only "hahahahahahahahahahaha." The subject line reads, "Thanks, I needed that."

MAYBE EAMES WAS TRYING TO SEND HIS PART OF A PAPER TO HIS COURSE PARTNER BUT MISSPELLED THE ADDRESS! ARTHUR WAS BORED AND CORRECTED ALL THE TYPOS AND SENT IT BACK! I AM STARRY EYED OVER THE EMAIL ADDRESS *_______________*

COBB THE LITTLE PARENT IN THE MAKING! HE WATCHES OUT FOR HIS PRACTICALLY YOUNGER BROTHER! Arthur is confused! Eames is not amused! But Allforgeudarling is having a field day! You know what? You should include THE MEDDLING COWORKER CLICHÈ! Ariadne spies Arthur reading his email and smiling his dimpled smile at an Allforgeudarling's email and now she's convinced that's Arthur's real boyfriend! She gossips about it in the coffee room to Yusuf and Eames eavesdrops the conversation and now he really wants to know who it is that makes Arthur smile like that but can't be bothered to stop old married men from getting their hands all over Arthur. He wants to know this person's name so he can go and punch them in the face for not knowing what they have!

OH GOD. ARIADNE AND YUSUF MAKE IT THEIR MISSION TO FIND OUT ALL THE THINGS ABOUT ARTHUR'S SUPER SECRET INTERNET BOYFRIEND!

MEANWHILE ~~back at the ranch~~ ARTHUR FIGURES OUT ALLFORGUEUDARLING'S TRUE IDENTITY WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS AND EAMES DOES SOMETHING THAT ALLFORGEYOUDARLING WAS TALKING ABOUT. OR. I DON'T KNOW. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO MEET AND ARTHUR SEES HIM AND FREAKS OUT. AND ANYWAY ARTHUR IS FREAKING OUT BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT HIS BOSS TO HIS BOSS AND ALSO IT TURNS OUT HE SORT OF HATES THE MAN HE IS MADLY IN LOVE WITH WHAT KIND OF SHIT IS THAT? AND EAMES/ALLFORGEUDARLING IS ALL DISTRAUGHT LOOKING, BUT ARTHUR HAS NO IDEA WHAT TO SAY TO HIM, OR HOW TO 'FESS UP TO THE WHOLE MESS. SO HE JUST SPENDS A LOT OF TIME AROUND EAMES TRYING NOT TO BLUSH AND/OR LOOKING LIKE HE IS DOING AN EXCELLENT IMPRESSION OF A VERY IMPECCABLY DRESSED FISH.

MEANWHILE, ARIADNE AND YUSUF'S SNEAKING AROUND HAS UNCOVERED WHO THE EMAIL BELONGS TO. THEY DON'T MEAN TO GOSSIP, HONESTLY, ESPECIALLY WITH THE SAITO DEAL COMING UP. BUT FISCHER, WHO WANTS TO PUT A WRENCH IN THE SAITO TAKE OVER PLANS OVERHEARS...

ARTHUR AND EAMES WALK IN TO THE OFFICE AT THE SAME TIME THE NEXT DAY, BICKERING OVER THEIR COFFEE. AND MAYBE ARTHUR IS SMILING JUST A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE HE AND EAMES HAVE GROWN CLOSER. AND EVERYONE STOPS TO STARE, BECAUSE NOW EVERYONE THINKS ARTHUR ONLY GOT THE JOB BECAUSE HE WAS SLEEPING WITH EAMES, AND ALL THEIR FIGHTS WERE JUST LOVERS QUARRELS AND THIS IS HOW EAMES FINDS OUT THAT ARTHUR IS...

I can't think of a good e-mail address for Arthur. D:

♥_____________________________♥

AN EXCELLENT IMPRESSION OF A VERY IMPECCABLY DRESSED FISH I declare this the Caption of the Year!

OMG! This is, like, a bajillion times better than the movie! I'll never be able to watch it again without zoning out and WATCH THIS VERSION IN MY BRAIN!

Arthur's anything is hard to figure out >:( Idk, something to do with "point"? I'm not good with (English) puns, though :(

THANK YOU, I DO TRY.

LOL I may need to watch it again just so I can figure out how Arthur finds out Eames' TRUE IDENTITY. Oh, oh, imagine how hurt Eames would be when he finds out and more--finds out Arthur knew.

I ALWAYS fail at puns. It's terribly tragic. Um. um. UM. Maybe Arthur's is just stupidly serious? a.pointman81@gmail.com? atthepoint@yahoo.com? WHY SO DIFFICULT, ARTHUR? WHY IS IT ALWAYS ARTHUR?

One day, I'm going to write something from Eames' POV. Then he'll be sorry!

(Probably this thing will be the nanny prompt from the kink meme, since OMG NO ONE TALKED ME OUT OF IT, WHY? Maybe I could change it! Maybe Eames could be the nanny that Mal and Dom hire, and he and Arthur clash a lot because naturally Arthur is over there ALL THE TIME while they're working and... Arthur doesn't trust him! With good reason because it turns out Eames is just there to get his hands on dreamshare information, but of course before he can Mal jumps and Dom has to go on the run and Arthur and Eames totally take care of the kids together or something. IDK! I worry about writing two different stories were Eames has a kid (or more than one, IDK) and I really, really liked the idea of the first one, but I'm not sure how to combine them at all.)

Ugh. My life is so hard.

:DDD

Eames would be heartbroken, but what was Arthur supposed to do? He loves Allforgeudarling and Eames made him crazy and it was such a mess! He's not good with relationships!

Arthur would have a serious email address! I was thinking yesterday something like afinepoint@gmail.com, but I like yours best :)

I'd love to see your take on Eames :D
(both of those are fantastic ideas! I'm not gonna lie, the first one has my heart, but mostly because I love the idea of Eames-the-single-parent and Arthur-the-stern-teacher-with-a-secret-marshmallow-core. But I'd love to read the other one too! I don't know, I can only assure you that I'll be here cheering for you forever! :D?)

OMG OMG, NO. NO. afinepoint@gmail.com is PERFECT. Perfect! And, and, oooh Eames did NOT get the email wrong, okay. He did not. Arthur just really wanted it, and someone else already had it. And allforgeudarling asks what happened, and all afinepoint says in response is: "They don't have it anymore." Eames is pretty sure that's the moment he falls in love, but since Arthur never asks, he's never going to tell.

I am SO SCARED to try and write Eames now! I don't know. I've gotten so used to Arthur hating the world. LOL

♥♥♥ the first one totally has my heart, too. I like the idea of Eames being sort of helpless at raising a little girl, but in a way that also makes him the best dad ever, and his little girl being the most no-nonsense ever, and she totally knows what's up even before Arthur does, and often wonders why adults have to be so dumb about things. BUT, at the same time, I like the idea of Eames being completely hopeless at raising very little children, and being forced to get a nanny to control them. He hires Arthur mostly because Arthur looks like he's fresh out of military school himself, and is stern enough to restore some order. And Eames is pretty horrified to discover how indulgent Arthur is with the kids, later, because Arthur is NEVER indulgent with him!

WHY SO HARD TO CHOOSE?

I am in love with your brain, jsyk ♥__________♥

I deeply believe that your Eames would be delightful! :D

Argh. They are all of them so amazing! Arthur is a secret marshmallow! Kids are the way to his heart! Arthur can't be indulgent with Eames because Eames is his employer! It wouldn't be professional!

IMPOSSIBLE TO CHOOSE!

Whyyyy my brain is stupid and it wants stupid things!

Oh, oh, and when Eames is all depressed because afinepoint hasn't replied to his email, and he's very confused, and he eyes Arthur sideways, while he smokes and Arthur just sort of hangs around holding onto a cigarette and trying to pretend he isn't watching Eames out of the corner of his eye. And Eames laughs, and finally says, "Christ, I must be worse off than I thought, if you're not stepping in to join in the chorus of this truly awful day with your typical belittling and unimaginative insults." "I'm sorry," Arthur says, and finally takes a drag, "I'll try and do better." And Eames just nods, mouth cocked, but not like he's really amused, and is all, "See that you do. It's terribly disappointing."

I have revised my to-do list (http://angelgazing.livejournal.com/191782.html). The first one won. I can totally fit in the part where Eames thinks Arthur is probably stuffy and overly stern only to realize he's the softest softy ever and totally spoilers Eames' little girl. He, you know, likes that.

STUPID BRAIN IT WON'T PICK A THINK TO WORK ON.

Don't offend your brain! Your brain is amazing! *pets your brain*

The only reason I'm not clutching my heart and making distressed sounds is because I know that you'll fix it and they will be happy together forever ;__;

I love that to-do list like burning! Also, all the possible titles! They are so beautiful! <333333

Lies! My brain is terrible. I'm all: Homework! And it's all: "... But there is Eames/Arthur fic on the internet!" And I'm like: "But that will still be there!" And it's just like: "But there will be more later." And I'm just like "AAARRG... Oh, hey, Inception as BANDOM..." And then my brain is just smug. >:|

They will totally get all better and live happily ever after! Um. Um. After the deal goes through, and Arthur is leaving for a different firm where people don't think he slept his way into the position! Or, no! Throughout the entire thing they are both just ~unhappy with the job that is being done in the dream research! So, the Fischer takeover happens, even with all the PR drama of Eames possibly sexually harassing employees, and Arthur maybe only getting the job because he was sleeping with the boss, and the fact that they aren't living up to all the things that it could be. So, at the end of the day, they're both probably going to be given their walking papers anyway, and even though they were totally getting better again, Eames is barely speaking to him, and Arthur is a very smart guy and he knows... well, he knows Eames. Eames steals the PASIV device when he leaves, and when he gets to the hotel Arthur is already there in jeans and a terrible tourist t-shirt. And Arthur is just like, "So, I've sort of been in love with you since you wrote me a dissertation on how Disney cartoons were actually much more damaging to a child's developing psyche than the Grimm versions of the same tales." The he pauses for a while, while Eames stands in the door and looks smug, before he says, "Of course, that was before I realized how pathetically easy it would be to find you." And Eames grins, and says, "You don't hide as well as you'd like to think either. Come now, darling, time for the real get away." And then they live a life of crime on the run and it is GLORIOUS. And, um, Saito totally wanted them to steal the one valuable part of the company after they sold it to Fischer. Because he's a badass like that. He's even responsible for their new passports.

I'm glad one of us likes my to-do list. lol I'm still very afraid of it, okay. Very afraid. Also, I'm afraid all my possible titles are too serious for the sunshine and candy I've apparently decided to make my new cup of tea. LOL But thank you. ::hugs::

Well, you shouldn't complain. I mean, your brain does have a point! (omg have you read that one? I am still starry eyed!)

HELLO! I ALREADY GAVE YOU MY HEART, I ONLY HAVE MY SOUL TO OFFER YOU THIS TIME!
I've sort of been in love with you since you wrote me a dissertation on how Disney cartoons were actually much more damaging to a child's developing psyche than the Grimm versions of the same tales I MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE WRITTEN A PAPER LIKE THIS WHEN I WAS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL! THERE WERE FOOTNOTES! OMG! I love you, okay? You'll have to accept this as a fact of life.

I don't care if the titles are serious! They are beautiful! They make for, uh, a poetic contrast with the sunshine-and-candy flavor of your stories. They, hmm, enhance their literary value. And stuff.

But. HOMEWORK. (Oh, god, I LOVED that one. I never wanted it to end. I wanted a billion words of Arthur/Eames stage!gay TRUE LOVE. So, so many hearts.)

Ahahaha THAT IS AWESOME. I think it's funniest because it's true. Disney totally sets children up for unreal expectations from reality while also KILLING ALL THE MOTHERS. And, and, basically I would just love to read that paper, okay. And I want Arthur to be charmed by Eames writing one, ok, even though he continued to argue just to argue. &boys; :D

But it is still, still never ever going to be near as awesome or adorable as you aaarrrt, omg.

Homework... bleah. (so many hearts for that story! It made me want to read oldies bandom fic again! Yes, there needs to be a whole lot more words about their epic TRUE LOVE!) (ALSO, remember that time Pete said that he and Patrick lived in a castle in the clouds and their neighbours were the Care Bears? My brain is a mess of fandom clashing!)

I was a very nerdy 13 years-old /o\ BUT! Best idea ever! Now you are bound to write this fic just so you can use this idea :DDD

LIES! YOU ARE A LYING LIAR WHO SPEAKS UNTRUTHS!

Write ALL the cliches?

Yesss, yesss, what a noble cause! Do it and I will crown you with the crown of a thousand glories. :D

ALL THE CLICHES!

But now I totally can't think of them or how to fit them together! Story ideas: Easier to come up with for other people.

Though I would enjoy a pretty crown...

write all the cliches?

I still get distracted by how much I want to play with his hair in your icon

ngl, it's fast becoming my fave

that is a totally valid lifestyle choice!

:DDD

like You've Got Mail, but better, because there's no Meg Ryan!

I hated her guts in that movie!

the thing I remember most is being annoyed at Tom Hanks backspacing one character at a time

I always yell "SELECT ALL/DELETE DAMN YOU!" at the tv when that scene comes up

or SHIFT UP. Hold down the key! THERE ARE BETTER WAYS, DAMMIT. Drives me nuts.

Also, the caviar thing. YOU ARE ALLOWED TO EAT IT! IT'S FOOD! YOU EAT IT!

possibly I'm going to have to rewatch the movie so I can figure this thing out

I may rewatch it just to laugh and point at all the things your version will do better

the main thing being, of course, that mine would have Eames and Arthur, and the real one does not

Which awards it ten thousand bajillions points already!
