I'm at work so can't dedicate the time to read this, but I just squeed when I saw it. I'm so excited to read it tonight!!!

I didn't know you're into Inception! I can't wait to see what you think <3

I loved the movie, I'm just not major into the fandom. I will read something if it catches my eye.

But that was heartbreaking. I just sort of assumed it was your standard awkward break up. Maybe Eames cheated but Arthur wants to stay together. It was like a punch in the stomach when I figured it out.

Also, this would so be me. My main defense against pain, stress, anything has always been sleep. If I could dream like that...I would probably never recover from any of my bouts of whatever it is.

Well done! I hope you post more of your writing. <3

it hurts sooo bad! *sobs*

*pats* there there. Arthur will feel better. ...with time.

Thank you :>

I'm curious as to what you mean by "back and forth". I meant for only the beginning and end to happen in real world, the rest is Arthur dreaming with his projection. Did you interpret the story another way?
