Pick a trope from this list and provide a fandom/pairing and I'll tell you something about the story I'd write for that combination (i.e. write a snippet from the story or write not!fic or tell you the title and summary for the story I would write) If I don't ship the pairing, I may tell you about their platonic tropefic adventures

So Eames cashes in a favour from Arthur (for something embarrassing Arthur will never admit, but may have included a bottle of vodka, public nudity, a purple feather boa and a cow) and has a job for them that is strictly thievery and holding onto some cargo until the owners pay the ransom.

The cargo was supposed to be a painting, but Eames' partner on the job bungles up and steals the bad guy's baby instead. Eames decides it'll do, and Arthur and Eames are crammed into domesticity, because the bad guys don't know where Arthur lives, and they're both at complete contrast to how they should look after the baby. Arthur tries to plan it out with his usual specificity, and gets cross when the baby doesn't sleep for the two hours that the baby manual says. Eames keeps trying to feed the baby beer and chips. They accidentally invent beer-flavoured milkshake at one point, just for the hilarity of it. The baby won't sleep until Arthur and Eames share a bed with it. Later, Arthur and Eames gets a little drunk, and maybe attempt to have sexytiemz while the baby naps. Eames gets morose and wishes out loud that he could keep the house and Arthur and the baby, but Arthur thinks it's just post-coital endorphins and pretends he didn't hear anything.

When they have to give the baby up, they both mope and Arthur shouts Eames out of his house. Eames spies on the family and finds that the baby's being basically raised by nannies and the parents don't care. Arthur and Eames independently come up with a plan to steal the baby back and meet in the nursery, Arthur admits it's not just the baby he misses, it's the house and Eames too, dammit.
