You already know that I like this and I should probably stop saying that or I'm gonna start sounding like I'm being a bit of a whore for you. If I weren't already, Jeez.
(I'm totes getting paid to do this, public. I really am.)
But yeah, I don't really deaging fics in general. But I do like hurty fics, because I'm petty. So deaging + hurty, that just conflicted in my brain a little. But I like how subtle this is, and how Eames doesn't jump Arthur's bones and how Arthur isn't a clingy sonuvabitch and you actually see the impact of a seventeen-year-old mind thrown into a much older time. Like the mom being already dead and him having to deal with that.
So yes, I did like this. :>
And it ain't porny, so how bout that. All my kinks and non-kinks in one neat little package. :>
Shh. You know you sekritly love me. Also I'm working on that R/S prompt right about now. They're on rival debate teams and Robert's team has just lost. :>
What happens next??? I like that he didn't change back and maybe he never will, but still...I want to KNOW. It was an interesting prompt; I don't think I've ever read a fic where the subject was only mentally deaged but not physically. You did a great job pointing out the difference and still having Arthur be unlike the Arthur Eames knows.
I loved this. I am not much of a fan of mentally deaging (physically deaging on the otherhand...) but you did this perfectly. I would love to read more of this.
I kid. Kinda. This was lovely and the very last line is so perfectly bittersweet but I certainly would be up for more. You know, if you wanted to do that. :D
