Arthur/Eames rec post
Can be construed as canon:
Documentation of An Affair by
onthecount, in which a multi-media "paper trail" is left and leads to the bedroom.
Sort of Revolution by
pyrimidine, in which arthur has a miserable time waking up and i fall a bit in love.
I'm the same boy I used to be by
hackthis, in which arthur and eames meet up repeatedly throughout life and young arthur is as bratty as i could've dreamed.
And the doors are open by
guns_and_butter, in which yusuf gives arthur a love potion...kind of. (15k words)
Dog Days are Over by
foxxcub, in which yusuf accidentally de-ages them to about 17 years old and arthur is snippy and eames is still kind of cocky and ariadne tries to wrangle them both.
It's Automatic on

tornadobelt in which Richard Siken is the unwitting patron of a beautiful arthur/eames fic.

lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones by
iri_descent, in which there is the tender, tragic toll of a terminal illness.
AUs of my heart
We Can Do This Until We Pass Out by
delires, in which Eames is a chav and i almost called out of work to keep reading...three times (warning: class differences, very un-pc) 28k+ words
Let Not My Love Be Called Idolatry by
toomuchplor, in which they're in high school and eames is a theater kid and arthur is class president and ariadne, yusuf and cobb make the most spectacular guest appearances.
A Piece of the Plate (Got Stuck in My Heart) by
jibrailis, in which eames is an iron chef and arthur is a failed chef and the most INSANITY-DRIVEN plot ensues but the emotions of career failure and jealousy are so real i clutch at my chest.
(i just realised I've stopped doing word counts. ah fuck it, i can't be arsed to go back and look it all up)
Any Way You Choose To Give It by pyrimidine, in which they're in boarding school and the bit at the end made my stomach drop somewhere into my knees and the sequel made me remember being young and dramatic.
I bet Nureyev never had to deal with this shit. by cobweb_diamond, in which they are in a dance company and there are a million details about ballet that make this world so three dimensional.
We Were once Cinema G-ds in the Night by
gyzym, in which eames is an actor, arthur is a producer and dom is a director and the theory that inception is really about filmmaking is played with.
Ach, des Knaben Augen written by
toomuchplor, in which you must click on the podfic with music, by
pennyplainknits and xenakis, and eames is a singer whilst arthur is a pianist and they make music together.
Untitled MMA from Anon Kink, in which Eames is an MMA fighter and Arthur has mixed feelings about it. Very short.
Abandoned WIPs
And Found the World Rearranged by Anon on Kink Meme, in which Arthur and Eames are so well written it breaks my flipping heart and I learn to love kidfic.
Untitled Post-Canon semi-Military Fic by
cobweb_diamond, in which Eames rescues Arthur in the Amazon or some such stuff but it features lots of angst and feeelings.
Comes with a Warning
Pants on Fire by Helenish, in which yusuf's compound produces a small bout of amnesia for the team. comes with a warning because arthur enjoys being roughed around and humiliated, rec'd because of unexpected sweetness and switchy-ness in bed.
Rough Trade by
whiskyrunner, in which arthur is in finance and eames is a teacher. comes with a warning because of rough sex, homophobic language and sentiments, rec'd because it got under my skin.
What I like: stuck up, lethal Arthur; cunning, intuitive Eames, Dom having Arthur's back, Eames a little jealous of Dom/Arthur, switchy pieces in which Eames and Arthur alternate as bottoms.
What I don't like: i won't read underage or non con, girl!arthur or girl!eames. i'm skittish (and generally not a fan of) sub!arthur, bondage, prostitution, rough trade, and pwp.
