Hey you!! It's you! Hi there! :D

Wow, man. Thank you so much - both for reading at all (I was hoping people are still reading Inception, or even still reading me) and for such a beautiful comment. I really appreciate it and take it as a huge compliment.

Aww, honey, that's awesome :D. Thank you, sincerely.

Oh, hell yes I did! One of the only Arthur/Cobb stories I've read and goddamn, it was awesome.

That seeing for his own eyes that there could be two halves of a whole made everything worth it. And that even if it ended in pain and suffering, it would still be worth it. I adore the way you write Arthur; very close to what I saw on the screen and yet with an

Thank you very much! I found Arthur a little hard to write, honestly - he's such a passive, pursued character for most of this that it was tough to, hmmm, wrangle him back into being a purposeful character. I'm really glad you enjoyed reading it :).
