Why this must be read:
The long-established relationship fic can be difficult to pull off convincingly, but Rageprufrock manages it with her usual deft hand. Eames wants to role-play as an anniversary present for Arthur, who isn't very good at it. Eames as 'Bob' (a tie-in to Handsome Bob from RocknRolla) finally convinces Arthur, who ends up being very, very good at it. By pretending to be someone else, Eames highlights all the ways he knows Arthur best and adds a real romance to what could otherwise be PWPish.
There is a podfic by Dodificus and she deserves scores of compliments because she is able to convey the characters as simultaneously full of affection and horny. Sex is where a lot of podifccers stumble because when it is bad it is so very, very bad. At its worst it can be like a disembodied voice doing terrible porn dialogue and is the most common reason I hit the delete button. Dodificus has always risen to the occasion, so to speak, and I will happily listen to anything she creates.
