Psst! Secret for you - I was really struggling over whether or not to kill both of them off. You know, cut out the entire last part and just have a "they found them x days later, x days too late" type of situation. Glad I didn't...
Maybe it's just as well you didn't read the summary; I'm terrible at those. But thank you for reading! It's always a joy to receive one of your reviews. ♥

Oh wow, that was lovely! I particularly liked the way you portrayed the Arthur and Cobb relationship and the bit with Saito and the after-effects of limbo. I think you nailed the characters perfectly as well. :D I followed the link to here from the Inception fic comm and I’ve gotta say WOW, your fics are simply remarkable, I’m in awe of you ability to craft amazing, heart breaking stories.

It's the little details that really count, no? ;)
Thank you for your kind words of reassurance, and for reading.
Glad you enjoyed!

I'm not capable of much coherency at the moment, so I'll leave you with my wordless flailing over how amazingly well-done this story was. :)

BB, it might not be heart-breaking angst, but it's still beautiful, and I don't think it's very OOC at all. Ariadne might be a strong young woman, but she's still a young and relatively sheltered woman; I'd be freaked out in this situation too. And Eames and Arthur were both perfect. OMGs, and Saito, and Cobb... and I'm curious as to what, exactly, Cobb did to get revenge on Cobol. >:D

Basically, I LOVE IT. :D

Oh, bb.
*hugs the stuffing out of you*
Thank you! Your reassurance is...well, reassuring. (Oh, hush. It's late. I've run out of words for today.)
What Cobb did to get revenge on Cobol? I'm curious about that too. Tell me if you find out? ;)

Thank you!!

::gets stuffing hugged out of:: :D :D :D

Oh dear. I have the feeling Cobb can be a rather sadistic fellow given half a chance. >:D

Although I would like a bit more of the background on their botched assignment, the fic is GOOD!! How can you end it like this?? I wanna know if they are resolved! I think they are ...so are they?

Hmm...a bit more background. That's doable. ;)
How can I end it like that? Because I'm a mean and terrible person.
No, I think Arthur and Eames are pretty much resolved. Arthur of course, isn't one for overly ostentatious shows of affection, so I think the fact that he sat on the bed next to Eames instead of just standing there says a lot.
Thank you for reading!

Doable as in a potential one-shot?

True true, Arthur isn't a PDA sort of person. Hahah I guess I was hoping for a little hand-holding. But after listening to your pov, it's true. =)
