[INCEPTION] Abandoned WIP post, Arthur/Eames

Abandoned Inception WIP dump post. I have around 10,000 words and a lot of regrets, but I figure it wouldn't hurt to clean them out?

Everything is c/p-ed directly from my writing files, so you get my fun mid-fic parenthetical notes and typos galore as well as mid-sentence endings where I gave up. Some bits might seem familiar because I've posted excerpts before or because I've reused certain scenarios and characters in fic I actually managed to finish and post. Enjoy!

So here, have a lot of Arthur & Eames & co.

( Arthur the celebrity, Eames the paparazzi: 357 words )

( Eames the celebrity, Arthur the college student: 203 words )

Can you tell I really wanted to do a celebrity AU?

( Eames the celebrity, Arthur his PA: 5263 words )

( Original help_pakistan canon job fic featuring truth serum: 4347 words )

EVERYTHING ENDS SO ABRUPTLY, I'M SORRY. So much wasted potential... :(

Reposting my holiday_heist fic at long last. I am terrible with this writing and posting thing lately. Anyway, the original post was here! Thank you to everyone for your fantastic comments there - I wasn't sure I should spam the entry with my thanks, but know they are heartfelt~ My fabulous artist was visualcomplex and her art makes me want to whirl around in glee because it is basically the best thing ever. ♥ Did I luck out or what? So here is some (slightly belated) holiday fluff.

Hallmark of the Holidays
Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG-13, 500 words
AU. No one is supposed to like their gag gifts, but Arthur insists on being that person.

( Three years into a relationship with Arthur, Eames knows a lot about Arthur. )

[INCEPTION] Be My Vanilla Bean, PG, Arthur/Eames

2010-10-13T08:18:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

A few hastily-scribbled Arthur/Eames ficlets that I posted to The Epic Fluff Meme and am reposting together because I am a bit anal about having things in one place for record-keeping. :D

Also, I've been off in DC the past few days living it up but thank you to everyone who left lovely comments on these over on the meme! ♥

Collectively titled, completely arbitrarily (with hidden depths of meaning, oh totally), the following:

Be My Vanilla Bean
Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG-13 overall
Ridiculous Arthur/Eames fluff with anniversaries, kisses, dragons, shouting on mountains, cupcakes, gifts, and (of course) cuddling.

( In which Eames fights a dragon. )

( In which Eames is not into necrophilia. )

( In which there is palm-kissing. )

( In which there is a Korean movie reference so few people seem to get. )

( In which there is Earl. )

( In which there is a future. )

( In which that's not Eames's dick. )

( In which there is an anniversary. )

( In which Arthur gets mysterious packages. )

( In which Arthur gets a Christmas present. )

( In which Arthur wears a sailor schoolgirl uniform. )

( In which there is kissing. )

( In which Eames sometimes has trouble with feelings. )

( In which Eames transports them to the 1950s, but not really. )

2010.10.07 | ...I wrote more than I expected. WELL, HERE IS TO ADORABLE FLUFF. MAY IT ALWAYS HAVE A PLACE IN THIS FANDOM AND OUR HEARTS. :3

[INCEPTION] Put Your Hands On Me, PG-13, Arthur/Eames

2010-10-06T23:26:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

Because cuddling is the answer to anything that might ail, of course! I meant to scribble something short, maybe 300-500 words. I end up writing this thing over the course of the day and night, through dramatic TV (Top Chef Just Desserts, holy crap), schoolwork, IMs, and baking of cupcakes. Don't worry, it's still short and ridiculous and fluffy!

Put Your Hands On Me
Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG-13, 1650 words
Arthur didn't expect to be the handsier one of the two of them.

( Upon reflection, Arthur realized that Eames had never touched him that much to begin with. In fact, he had always kept a respectful physical distance from Arthur even while his words jumped that gap headlong. )

[INCEPTION] Want You Right Now, Darling, PG, Arthur/Eames

2010-09-23T22:59:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

Finally! My help_pakistan fic for gardinha. You told me you wanted something happy, where Arthur and Eames were together at the end. This surpasses happy and moves into crack, but Arthur and Eames are definitely together at the end. I hope you enjoy it!

Want You Right Now, Darling
Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG, 3310 words
Crack. In which unexpected side effects have left Eames incapable of uttering the word "darling" without rendering himself an irresistible object of lust to everyone except Arthur. Arthur is not pleased. Also, Cobb wants to write a book.

( Some things get noticed immediately just because - well, there is really no way to miss Ariadne plastering herself to Eames's side and trying to stick her hand down his trousers. )

[INCEPTION] no such thing as your side of the bed, PG-13, Arthur/Eames

2010-09-21T23:35:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

Really this fic should be called THE ONE WHERE ARTHUR IS A PAPER DOLL BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW TO WRITE ANYMORE, ARGH. I am very very conflicted about this piece (some bits I love, some bits I verily do not) but because I need to feel like I've been producing something -- anything -- I'm posting this. So I will be motivated fo finish my help_pakistan fic! Which is currently at ~4300 words and still going. Um, yeah, not going to be cross-posting this. Feel free to ignore! Thanks to intomorning for her earlier insight and feedback, but please do not at all hold her responsible for anything you are iffy about in this fic. That is all on me.

no such thing as your side of the bed
Inception, Arthur/Eames (very minor Arthur/OFC, Arthur/Mal, Arthur/Dom), PG-13, 1860 words
The one where Arthur goes to sleep and wakes up a lot, but everything changes in between.

( Sleep doesn’t mean what it used to: work, now, rather than rest. Dreaming is more wearing than being awake. Going to sleep with someone beside you, waking with someone beside you doesn’t hold the same significance it once did. )

[INCEPTION] Dream a Little Dream of Me, PG Arthur/Eames

2010-08-31T22:35:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

For 2naonh3_cl2, who requested an A/E AU based off this music video (with Zooey Deschanel and JGL) and somehow got me to do it, probably because I love her. Never-ending gratitude to delocalised and intomorning for betaing when I threw it desperately at them at the last minute and for being ridiculously helpful. ♥

Dream a Little Dream of Me
Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG, 2135 words
AU. Arthur likes routine and his job as a bank teller gives him that. Falling in love with the man who comes in to rob the bank, however, is not a part of the routine.

( Sometimes he wonders if anyone looks at him and thinks, What are your dreams? )

[INCEPTION] Comfort and Joy, R, Arthur/Eames

2010-08-24T01:50:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

I said, "There is only so many times you can write about Arthur & Eames cuddling, I am pretty sure. :(" Aja said, "excuse me this is a blatant lie. >:E". And so I wrote this, because apparently my brain is hardwired for fluffy-cuddling-Arthur/Eames only, and not any of the serious/angsty fics I was trying to write. Originally posted, much shorter, as commentfic here. This is the longer and more ridiculous version! Happy birthday to me: ridiculously schmoopy fic is ridiculously schmoopy.

Comfort and Joy (or, Five Times Arthur & Eames Cuddled and One Time They Didn't)
Inception, Arthur/Eames, R, 3215 words
The first five times don't count, because Arthur says so, and after that he's sort of lost count.

( So they get drunk and they cuddle. But, whatever, it's okay because you can't be held responsible for what you do when you get drunk, Arthur reasons. )

[INCEPTION] Cuddleslut, PG, Arthur/Eames

2010-08-07T23:16:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

Non-drunken fic! I honestly didn't think it was possible. I have some other stuff in the works (either on metaphorical paper or trapped in my head, but it's there, dammit), but things never go according to plan. This was written spur-of-the-moment for, of course, inception_kink. THERE ARE SO MANY GOOD PROMPTS THERE. I would give a kidney for some of them to be filled, no lie.

Cuddleslut
Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG, 1960 words
In which Eames doesn't know how to cuddle, Arthur finds himself giving lessons, and arguments are won by cheating.

Written for this prompt: Arthur has to teach Eames (who isn't used to people wanting him to hang around after sex) how to cuddle. Bonus if Arthur gets all clinical about it and Eames is all, fuck it!, and smooshes his face into Arthur's belly like he's secretly always wanted to and that's that.

( “What are you doing-- stop that! Eames!” Arthur bats Eames's hand away from his thigh. “Cuddling does not entail groping. That was the first thing we covered.” )

[INCEPTION] Attached You Will Find, PG-13, Humor, Arthur/Eames

2010-07-29T10:22:00Z

Posted by: meiface.livejournal.com

It has been over a month since I've written fic but it feels like so much longer. The mental block is strong with me. :( I am trying to ease back into this whole process again, but it's been hard - this was scribbled out last night in a tipsy haze to a fun prompt on inception_kink, which has kind of taken over my free time.

Oh yeah, I kind of possibly have a new fandom? Blame lies squarely with suxing for getting me into reading and now attempts at writing. Don't ask me how many times I've seen this movie or all my meta thoughts (or, do, but on my journal instead!), just indulge me this bit of pointless fun fic. :D

Attached You Will Find
Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG-13, 1515 words
It turns out that Eames sending dirty pictures to Arthur's phone has become something of a routine thing.

Inspired (and slightly altered) from this prompt.

( The fourth picture is the lewdest yet. Arthur flushes red when he is careless enough to open it on the metro in Singapore and nearly knocks into the lady sitting next to him in his haste to close the text immediately. )
