So going back and re-reading this whole thing, I have to say that I absolutely adore Phillipa's arc. I'd be curious to see what happens if she did get into "the business," possibly as Eames' partner.
This is a beautiful story, portrayed with all the right facets and flaws to make a perfect gemstone (get it? it's a metaphor, derp derp, should not try to be witty before noon). I've already bookmarked this and I'll be coming back for many rereads in the future.
I never thought this kind of relationship could have worked in a non-creepy way, but the way you wrote the characters did it for me. I really could identify with your Phillipa, both in the initial seduction and the relationship she ends up wanting.
At frist I was all, Eames and Phillipa?! And the more I read it the more I feel in love! You made them so real, likeable even though they were human and flawed. You evolved this story so well! My favorite part was the fact the records were actually from Eames and how you tied that in.

Thanks for all the kind words. Hopefully it is as good on the second time through.
