Summary
“This isn’t a hotel.” Eames tried to sit up and gave up before even getting his head off the pillows; he pouted, as though that were a thing for grown men to do, and Arthur merely watched as he then braced his right arm—the one that wasn’t black and blue from wrist to bicep and in a splint on top of that—on the bed and hauled himself into a very slightly more upright position slowly, grimacing as he did.
“No, it’s not a hotel,” Arthur said at last, holding out the mug. Eames took it, looked into it, and frowned deeply at it before dumping the small cocktail of pills it held straight into his mouth. Arthur took the mug back to pour some of the actual tea. “What the hell makes you think I’d take you to an AirBnB?”
“Well, I seem to have awoken in a very twee cabin.”
“Fuck you,” Arthur said, and he set the mug and the pot down a little roughly on the table at the head of the bed and went off to see if the cold snap had hung around long enough for the front steps to need salting.

Summary
It's not that Arthur doesn't enjoy his boring job (because he does), and it's not that Arthur doesn't have hobbies (because he does), and it's not that Arthur doesn't experience a surprising number of romantic prospects cropping up (because he does); it's just that he's not happy for no reason, and he can't stop texting his tailor.

Summary
'Do you have a heart attack?' Phee asked from somewhere under his elbow. He startled so hard that he almost fell off the tree stump.
'No, erm, of course not,' eyeing her as he straightened his sweater. 'What makes you say so?'
'You have a shallow breath and hold your belly like you're in pain,' she replied matter-of-factly. She looked tired, and there was a frown over her face which Linus didn't like. 'Just like Lucy said in his last book report.'
Because of course Lucy, dear but morbid child that he was, picked for his reading of the month a book about cardiac problems after he learned about Linus' high blood pressure. As was to be expected, the symptoms, complications, and death cases were the focus points in his rather lengthy presentation._
A story of three months between Linus' return to the island and his move to the Marsyas House, in which he learns that there are more ways to express his feelings than just arts and crafts projects.Bookmarked by AndaIsReading

Summary
Arthur usually finds blatant fishing for compliments extremely irritating, but in Eames’ case he is reluctantly charmed. In fact, he writes the phrase “reluctantly charmed” into the Eames notebook the moment the words occur to him because they so perfectly encapsulate his entire situation.

Summary
Very loosely based on this prompt from the inception_kink meme:
Arthur is ridiculously awkward at hugging and paranoid about getting it right. So when people attempt to hug him, he panics and freezes - does he position his arms over their shoulders or under their shoulders? Does he have to pat them on the back? Where does his head/chin go? How long does a hug last?
I'd just really like frustrated!Arthur enlisting bemused!Eames to help improve his hugging technique. Because hugging Eames is comfortable and not-so-awkward and nice so Arthur keeps coming back for more IN THE NAME OF SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY.
OR it's the most disastrous thing ever and they are both hilariously awkward/discomfited/embarassed and so vow never to hug again.

Summary
Eames thinks he knows what to expect when he gets involved with Arthur. He loves being wrong.
"Eames has always believed that, when he finally manages to talk (coerce/bribe/incept) Arthur into becoming his lover, it will be a shallow affair kept to the confines of anonymous hotel rooms...And that’s fine, really. It’s worth it, being Arthur’s dirty little secret, if it gives him the privilege of tearing off those gorgeous suits and sucking bruises into smooth skin."

Summary
Arthur’s issue was simple: without constructing a perfect fort of cushions, he could not get comfortable, and therefore could not sleep. It wasn’t dramatic, and it wasn’t insurmountable— as long as he could pile pillows and blankets around him to keep his battle worn body in a reasonably stable position, he could get a good five hours.

Summary
It is close to Christmas, isn’t it. The 22nd? No, that was yesterday. Or…how many hours was he on that first plane? Felt like about an entire day in itself. And then with the layover, which Eames slept through most of. If he left Buenos Aires on the evening of the 23rd, and then with the delay in Atlanta—
And then the door swings open, and Arthur is standing there in a knitted jumper so repulsively festive it makes Eames question his lucidity, looking dour and suspicious and oh, god, it really is Christmas Eve, isn’t it? And Eames is so, so happy to see his angry face. He grins so hard it makes his cheeks hurt.
“Eames?” Arthur says, voice low, like he doesn’t want anyone to overhear him. “What the fuck are you doing here?”

Summary
“Let me be perfectly clear, darling,” Eames rolls onto one side, props himself up on one forearm, “I would absolutely never underestimate you. I find you — well, if we’re being honest I’m not entirely sure there’s a word for how I find you.”
“Intimidating is what I’m aiming for,” Arthur offers helpfully, “Terrifying. Menacing. I’d settle for unnerving.”
He takes another drag from the cigarette, and Eames can’t help but stare at the movements of his mouth.
“Well,” he says, finally, “I best not get on your bad side, then.”
//
OR, Eames and Arthur meet, over and over again.
