This has managed to combine two of my favourite things. There should never be enough Robert and cats. I'm guessing you're a cat owner? You have cat behaviour down just perfectly.

I am definitely a cat owner <3 Part of me wanted to write this because I know just how fantastically crazy they can be...

I don't think there could never be enough Robert and cats :D

Thank you so much! At the end of the movie, he does look all ready to take on the world and all, but it just couldn't be that easy...Not with how insecure he seems the rest of the time, in regard to his father and all that.

But anywho. Robert is a fun character. You can't help but feel for him :-)

Re: CAN I FANART THIS PLS

[evergreengarden]

PLEASE DO! :D :D :D I would be ridiculously happy/excited/flailing around to see it! Because YOUR ART IS AMAZING!!!!! Ahem, but yes. Just let me know when it's finished so I can flail in the utmost delight!

I saw the prompt, and I was like, I NEED TO DO THIS. I was only too happy to oblige! Because cats rule. And so does Robert. And Robert plus cats equals amazingness ♥ I'm so glad you liked it!

I loved this story so much. Man, why is it the gen-fic that ends up being my favorite in this fandom? Because it's my favorite by a long shot. Especially this one, with the crazy cat-like idiosyncrasies and Robert going from insecure to breaking down to confused to putting himself back together again. It was beautiful.

*flails* Thank you. Just...thank you. I just hoped to do Robert justice, because he is such complex, yet entirely human character (as is everyone in Inception, which is why it's so fantastic). I feel for that guy. *sigh*

I'm so glad you enjoyed it <3
