This is not a love story.
1. I have a new saviour. His name is Benedict Cumberbatch. sparky77, maurheti and I will now be High Priestesses at The Most Holy Temple of the Cumberbatch. If you have need of our services, please come see us in the garden and we'll be happy to talk about menswear ad nauseum. Okay, I will talk about clothing, the other two will talk about something else.
ETA: The below clip isn't from the above photoshoot, but who cares cause it's got Benedict and Jamie Bamber in tuxedos.
Photos from Oh No They Didn't. If there are icons for this, PLEASE GOD SHOW ME WHERE THEY ARE; I HAVE NEEDS. This is the first time in my life I've thought, "Why is the model in there, she's not nearly hot enough for him and is totally bringing down the total hotass quotient."
2. For those of us who were a little bit less than happy with the outcome of this season's Project Runway. So was Tim. Love you, Tim!
3. I am not particularly interested in Inception right now. Maybe I'm burned out. Maybe I'm seriously over it and over fandom and only want to read stories about Sherlock and Watson (I won't lie, when Benedict said in his interview 'Sherlock's asexual' all I could think was 'ohhhhhhhh, that's where that came from in fandom'. Sherlock fandom writers know how to bring in the schooling. \o/)
Maybe the Inception DVD will come out and I'll fall in love all over again.
Whatever the case, maybe I'll write something sprawling and heart-felt tomorrow based on loobeeinthesky's Inception art; maybe I never will again. I don't know; right now I don't really give a shit.
If you're here only for Friday Inception Recs those may not happen again. They may wind up being only about Sherlock and The Social Network. Feel free to leave at any time. You don't need my blessing or amnesty. There's no contractual obligation for 99.99% of you. We're all grown-ups even when we're not acting like it.
But, for what it's worth, here are what's left in my rec folder:
Again & Again by sorrynotsorry -- Arthur's an escort. Eames wants to make him a better offer.
Chasing the Rising Sun by foxxcub -- Arthur is a Weimaraner puppy; Eames is a Australian Shepherd puppy. Considering how high-strung Weimaraners tend to be, that's pretty perfect casting.
Dream-Share Tactical Employment procedures. by darkknightrises -- These are fucking amazing, holy fucking shit.
I Think We're Alone Now by nami86 -- This is Arthur/Ariadne art and I'm utterly besotted by this artist's style and her attention to detail. There are totems on the nightstand. She almost makes me wish I wrote Arthur/Ariadne, but it's not my thing, just as Arthur/Eames isn't the artist's thing (she's not gonna do it, don't bother asking). But it's always nice to appreciate awesome for the sake of awesome.
Naked Lunch by jibrailis -- Eames makes a wish; Arthur has to live with the consequences. It's quite the wish.
Everybody's read gyzym's coffee shop!AU; it's a game changer. It may be the biggest fic in Inception fandom; I'm pretty sure it's the best received and talked about for a reason. I'm not overtly recommending that one (it's obviously warranted, but well past superfluous). I'm recommending We Must Unlearn the Constellations to See The Stars which is Robert Fischer fic. There's some Robert/Saito, but it's not really about that, it's about being who you want to be and not who the world or your parents or society thinks you should. (But I suppose the coffee shop fic is about that, too; it's a thing).
And of course the folder dump wouldn't be complete without this bad ass video from orlisroses29 featuring Massive Attack's Inertia Creeps. I love Massive Attack. Shocking, I know.
