This is just so gorgeously written and there's so much depth to this. I love this 'verse but this particular installment is just achingly lovely.

I love love love that you've written this from Sam's point of view, that Sam sees and understands so much more than he's given credit for.

If Eames wanted normal, Sam wants to say, he would have picked a dog who wasn't whimpering and weird-looking. He would have abandoned Sam the first time Sam left a puddle under the kitchen table or the first time there was a thunderstorm and Sam destroyed a couch cushion in a frothing panic. If he wanted normal, Sam wants to shout, he wouldn't be Eames, and you wouldn't want him either!
Oh god, this. THIS I legitimately teared up as I read this.

I really, really hope you continue exploring this different perspective. Seriously. The depth of emotion and the way this is written...gah. It's really too beautiful for words.

Oh my god, why is this so sad! I am seriously crying.
Now I'm going to have to go back and read the rest of the verse. :)

Oh jeeze, going to bed sad. I'll be stuck stressing about this until Arthur's hurt is resolved somehow (please say it will be resolved)...poor baby.

I love this verse so much, and Sam is such a sweet, genuine, perceptive narrator. It's wonderful how much he understands.

This is so achingly beautiful; I read it and had to run to practice, where it rolled around in the back of my brain until I came home to read it again... yep, still breathtaking and bittersweet. Your descriptions of Arthur's compulsions are quiet and sure. Sam's POV is such a wonderful choice and I'm so glad you wrote it. The way he sees things and understands all that is going on and yet never stops being a dog... love it.
