everybody is so make believe

I can't even believe I just wrote this.


"Honestly, Arthur," Mal says, in the middle of an underarm turn out of a promenade, "you have such a type."

Eames is leading his partner though a Viennese Waltz. They're in closed position, and Eames' posture is perfect.

Arthur can't really deny Mal's claim, because his mouth is suddenly very dry.





I am going to be shunned so hard by anyone and everyone who knows anything about dance. OMG.

You are the worst kind of crack dealer. This is so intriguing and delightful, and of course Arthur would jump Eames immediately if Eames hadn't opened his mouth. ahahaha, wonderful!

I'm sorry! I don't mean to be a crack dealer! It just sort of happens... Hahaha Eames totally cockblocks himself by speaking! You'd think he'd learn, but he never seems to.

Ah, thank you. I'm just... going to go hide now.

You can't hide! I will just chase you down like a lemming, quacking "more? more? more?" until you throw fic at me to shut me up. ♥

Bwah! If only I had something worth actually offering right now.

"Well, Arthur," Eames says, rolling Arthur's name around in his mouth obscenely. Arthur is not impressed, but he can't speak for his dick in the matter. "It is quite the pleasure to meet you."

Arthur snorts. Eames looks confused at everyone else. "Sure," he says, and shrugs his duffle bag higher on his shoulder.

Eames taps the fingers of his left hand against an almost empty water bottle that Arthur had just noticed. He's not dressed for the occasion, except in the loosest of terms. He's got on navy blue yoga pants, a yellow t-shirt that declares his intention to explain through interpretive dance, and tennis shoes.

"Are you sure you belong here?" Arthur asks, because apparently the airline lost his brain to mouth filter.

Luckily, Eames just grins. "Suspicious, aren't you?"

It's a fair assessment. Arthur shrugs, and maybe nods a little bit. Maybe.

Look at all these animal metaphors you are reducing me to. :D

Yeah, I totally had to look up what a lemming actually was, when you said you would be quacking like one. Animal metaphors are difficult! Who knew!
