here: Arthur is the cute boy that's always at the cafe Eames goes to. Eames tries to make conversation with him a few times, but Arthur just ignores him. Or so Eames thinks. Turns out, Arthur is deaf. Cue Eames learning random signs (this totally gets Arthur to smile, which he rarely does). I'd love it if Adriane is a waitress there and clues Eames in. Also, she threatens to chop his balls off and feed them to him if he hurts Arthur.
The teacher is currently teaching them poetry. Eames is hoping for something a little more eloquent than 'one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish' that he can woo Arthur with.
