[fill] double buck 1/? gelbwax April 18 2011, 05:53:35 UTC

everything I know about lumberjack competitions I learned from wikipedia, and a few exhibitions I attended as a kid. so. lots of things are probably incorrect or just plain false. now without further ado...

Arthur has absolutely no interest in sawing double buck. He’s single buck, always has been; his saw is six foot four, and if you think he’s too short to handle it on his own you don’t know who he is.

So there was no need for a partner, and if he were to have a partner, it certainly wouldn’t be some upstart hot saw competitor who does chainsaw art on the side.

Because really, fuck. Chainsaws are so inelegant.

When Cobb brought the whole thing up Arthur just sat very still and looked at him, trying to convey with the ineffable depths of his eyes how supremely dumb Cobb was, and, by extension, this idea ( ... )

“I heard you were an ass to Eames,” Ariadne tells him the next day when she runs into him at the diner in town, where Arthur likes to go in the mornings to eat biscuits and sausage ( ... )

I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU ♥ ♥ ♥

Re: [fill] double buck 1b/? gelbwax April 18 2011, 16:22:41 UTC

HURRAH.

I love this prompt probably more than I should.

Re: [fill] double buck 1b/? blissbeans April 21 2011, 10:06:58 UTC

I wish I could give a coherent reply, but I just can't. OMG. I love every line, every single line. This is hysterical--Arthur's so taciturn and just how you manage to convey his sheer single-minded dont-give-a-fuckery through his internal dialogue. I can see him checking a tooth pick with this look on his face--I dk why, but I just see this whole stance and this bitch face. Oh, who knew being a lumberjack would suit Arthur so perfectly.

And Cobb is so damn pretentious. The least pretentious thing he says is calling Arthur an ass. Oh, it's just how I like my Arthur and Cobb. I love the line about them being friends, sometimes. I'm not even done reading, but I just stumbled across this line--

"Arthur only competes in single buck, but he likes to throw hatchets in his spare time." And I had to squee! Off to finish the rest.

Re: [fill] double buck 1b/? gelbwax April 22 2011, 01:48:12 UTC

Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it. And Cobb is--really obnoxious in this fic. I think he means well. Probably.

Re: [fill] double buck 2/? gelbwax April 18 2011, 14:48:35 UTC

Because Cobb and Ariadne were all up in Arthur’s shit about being nice to Eames, Arthur had kind of assumed that Eames was some sort of absurdly nice person, the sort of imaginary lumberjack who frolicked through the forests with deer and rabbits.

It turned out Arthur was slightly off in that assessment. And, also, Eames had apparently snitched the gate code off of Cobb, because there’s truck that’s not Cobb’s or Arthur’s in the drive when Arthur gets back, and Eames is sitting in one of this Adirondack chairs.

“Good morning, Arthur,” Eames says.

“Eames,” Arthur says with a curt nod. “I don’t really have time right now.”

Eames gets up and prowls over, and then he stands very close to Arthur and just looks at him ( ... )

Re: [fill] double buck 2b/? gelbwax April 18 2011, 15:17:25 UTC

“I think I’m coming down with something,” Arthur says when Cobb stops by on Wednesday, and Cobb just purses his lips.

“I’ll pay for your ticket to the demo derby,” Cobb offers.

“Ariadne suggested I could do some hatchet throwing.”

Cobb frowns.

“I’ll let you do a hatchet throwing demonstration,” Cobb says. “As long as there are no children around.”

“What the fuck Cobb? We’re right off the midway. There are always children around ( ... )

Re: [fill] double buck 2c/? gelbwax April 18 2011, 15:32:31 UTC

When he gets back, Eames is at the table and Mal has disappeared. He’s done up the bib of his overalls, but he’s still not wearing a shirt, and Arthur does not want tickets to this gun show, but apparently has them ( ... )

Re: [fill] double buck 2c/? eternalsojourn April 18 2011, 20:27:02 UTC

THIS FIC IS MY NEW FAVOURITE THING IN LIFE!!!! I'm hyperventilating here. Lumberjacks!!! I fucking love lumberjacks; my husband is an arborist and... I fucking love lumberjacks!

Also, I love how you're writing Arthur:
Then he hangs up. Or maybe Cobb does. Semantics.

Anon, you're amazing, and I'm really looking forward to reading the rest of this!

Re: [fill] double buck 2c/? gelbwax April 20 2011, 20:22:03 UTC

Thank you :)

Re: [fill] double buck 2c/? gelbwax April 19 2011, 15:33:24 UTC

What a beautiful story! I love your disgruntled Arthur.

Re: [fill] double buck 2c/? gelbwax April 20 2011, 20:22:55 UTC

Beautiful is not the word I would use (more like ridiculous)...But thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it.
