Lives I've Pursued
Inception: Arthur/Eames
Rating: PG13
7,551 words
Arthur could live like this, or this.
Unbeta-ed which will become extremely obvious during the reading of, I'm betting.

( The job on which he first met Eames ended poorly. )

fic, inception

Ah, crazy. I am overwhelmed, HAHA. Um, I think you've stated the threads of the story better than I ever could have--there was a point where...it became about so many things that I could never coalesce them into a whole concretely for myself ( ... )

Gosh, I am really sorry that I just babbled, but I just love the story so, and there's so many things that going back and reading it I think are lovely and just slot in really well. So even if maybe at the top of your subconscious, it seemed like it was hard to bring them together, to the rest of us, it looks like the most natural thing in the world, something we fall into just like Arthur and Eames do ( ... )

I. Love. This. Fandom.

And you, for writing in it :)

Hahaha, this fandom is super great! I am really happy to be a part of it, and really happy you are a part of it, too!

Thank you so much.

oh, wow.

indysaur November 1 2010, 01:46:35 UTC

Ah, I'm going to go ahead and presume that's a good wow! Haha, thank you for reading!

this is only the second time i've read a fanfiction by you, but it's the second time in a row that i've felt like someone was tugging at my sleeve and saying, 'hey, listen, this is about life, about -your- life.' i'm left with the same intense, choked-up feeling i had before when i read Plate Tectonics and felt like my life was splitting in half. in the same way, i'm so glad i got to read this fanfic and that arthur was able, just as two_if_by_sea said much more articulately, to balance the need for risk and the desire for safety, and to find Eames at the still center of all those things. this was such an amazing read and i can't wait for the next thing you write for this fandom, for these two characters, because i'm sure it will take me with them on that quiet, beautiful slide towards self-knowledge, just like both of these fics have.

thank you for writing.

Wow, thank you so much for reading. It's--ah, I get super nervous when I post stories, sometimes, to the point where I have to leave the house and do something else for the little bit after, and my heart kind of races and it's--I don't know, man. It's really, really nice to hear that they're not pointless, or ridiculous, that there are readers like you who find something okay in them.

Hahaha, um, that was self-indulgent, but yeah, I'm really happy that you liked this, and thank you, again, for reading and for your kindness.
