homesick

So I was supposed to be working on at least two other things, and also my taxes, and then I read this prompt, and it made me cry tears of joy and piss my pants with glee and set everything aside and write this thing, which I'm not entirely sure what to make of. Some day soon I will go back to writing silly AUs.

Eames, that was a godawful line. But i have to forgive him for it. :)

Love this fic, and Arthur's... wanderlust, or whatever it is, with Eames and Ariadne so sure there's something wrong with him, and Eames in particular being convinced it's Cobb. Meanwhile Arthur just thinks it's part of him.

Really, I love this, it's so good. :)

Thank you! That line--ohgod. I was like "I should not include this, it totally kills the mood" and then I was like "I am being silly, it lightens the mood." Because I'm prone to ending fics with melodrama. Or something. There was some logic, anyway. And then I slapped it up here and giggled to myself.

Anyway--glad you enjoyed it!

LOL. Okay. I'm not done reading this, but this:

“You’ve got to stop it, or people are going to start thinking you like traveling in car boots,” Eames says.

“What’s the job?” Arthur asks.

“Seriously,” Eames continues. “Aren’t you getting a bit old for working with crap extractors and making narrow escapes? Ariadne’s supposed to be pulling that shit.”

LOL THIS! XD -goes back t0 reading-

I like the idea of Arthur being somewhat wreckless; not as uptight as he's sometimes written. But traveling in car trunks is not the most genius idea.

Wow, this fic... got to me. I've lived in three different places -- Seattle, Colorado, Vermont -- in the last six years, and am set to move to Chicago in two weeks. Wanderlust is something I definitely understand, and the love-hate relationship with the desire to settle down. This fic was brilliant. Bookmarking forever.

The yurt comment was totally superfluous and also so, so necessary.

I've lived all over (as of this count--two countries, five states, something like eight cities), and tend to take short term jobs that require a lot of movement--it can be rough, but also rewarding, which is why this prompt really appealed to me.

Chicago is lovely! Good luck with the move.

This was brilliant, a really great insight into Arthur. I especially like that Ariadne assumes he is with Eames and Eames assumes he's with Ariadne, I want this to continue into a threesome where everyone is happy together wherever they roam. Or just happily ever after like in Auckland where A/E share a room and Ariadne is their roomie, only for life.

I really like that Arthur doesn't really want to know why he acts like he does and cannot preform an extraction on himself. This is not something he can solve with dreamsharing ease.

This was actually about 2 inches away from being a threesome, and then I wasn't sure if I could write a plausible threesome and pulled back. But we'll see--if I continued this I would seriously consider it, because Ariadne is really part of the dynamic in this fic.

Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I love all the dialogue and how straight-forward everything is.

Man, I feel for Arthur.

Also, JOB IN EAMES' PANTS. Hahahahahahahaha forever and ever.

(I mean: thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.)
