Sexy and unsettling is precisely what I was aiming for :D
"Very handsome parasite" is the perfect descriptor for Eames. He's certainly no blushing innocent being lured in my Arthur, who has a disturbing amount of experience luring in far nobler men than Eames. Arthur does love a challenge and the chase; once that's over, he inevitably gets bored and has to start the cycle over again with someone new.
Arthur claims to hate arguing when what he really means is that he hates losing arguments and not getting his way (something which hasn't happened in a long, long while). He does enjoy having to exert his will to a certain extent--keeps him sharp and paying attention. He also says it as a way to try to reassure his victims that he's not interested in browbeating them into submission--he prefers a more agreeable coercion with less shouting.
I do love a disturbing, fucked up end to a horror story, and I'm glad you do, too! Thank you for your thoughtful and lengthy comment, as well as for all your feedback and encouragement along the writing way :)
