“Any score is abysmal in comparison to yours,” says Nino. “You’re practically a robot.” “I appreciate that,” Jun tells him. “It really helps when you take pains to move the discussion along like this.”
TRYING TO RESIST WOULD HAVE BEEN UNWISE, YOU DID WELL.
How could I not spot it? It's done so subtly and so brilliantly. I actually laughed out loud when I read it. (everytime I read something about the Arthur/Eames dynamic, I think about the "specificity" moment and laugh like a moron, it's terrible.)
I giggle a little bit too, whenever I think about "specificity" - once I slipped it into an actual conversation and had to stop myself from laughing for fear of sound like a loon. :D
Now that I'm thinking about it, I think I underutilised Jun a little bit as the Point Man in this story. More instances of competence and anal-retentiveness might have been fun to write! Also, delicious suits! /rambles
UGH HERE JUST TAKE MY HEART NOW ♥ the characters you work with homg, Kuroki as the mark, and ohno/kuroki interaction. And the F4 gang. Also, Ikuta and Shun!!! And Mao who shoots herself in the head like its no big deal~
Also, the cubes, do they have significance or it's just to show which paradigm the story is in?
It's just amazing to read so far and be squealing every next paragraph at the story development:D

“He’s gotten really good in the past two years,” says Ohno.
Jun glances over at him. “Nino’s always been good,” he says slowly, “and it hasn’t been that long.”
foreshadowing? It gave me goosebumps~
