Question!!
I'm working on an Arthur/Eames story (actually a continuation of my most recent A/E fic) and, because I'm so thoroughly small-town American, I have no idea what sort of foods/beverages Eames would like. See, here's the prompt:
So, if you're like me, you know for a fact that delires 's chav fic is a work of literary genius. And as much as I love fics where Eames' English-ness is uber-emphasized, could I just have a fic where despite the fact that Arthur is a classy BAMF, he's still a red-blooded American at heart?
Does he love McDonald's despite the fact that just walking past one could give you cancer?
Does he order two Grilled Stuft Burritos, cinammon twists, cheesy potatoes, and a large Mountain Dew at Taco Bell? (all with a straight face)
Does he love Kool-Aid with a fiery, burning passion Eames is jealous of? Does he realize Chinese take-out holds little resemblance to actual Chinese cuisine?
Maybe he obsessively brackets for March Madness, looks forward to the Super Bowl (AND COMMERCIALS), and meticulously plans his Super Bowl-viewing parties?
Perhaps he FAILS AT GEOGRAPHY 4EVER (it's the education system here, I swear, we mostly don't mean much by it)
Or just plain clueless about a lot of things: "Icelandic's a language?", "I thought Siberia was an actual country...", "What the hell is an asymptote?"
How does Arthur take his coffee? What region of the US is he from? (bonus if it's not one of the big, famous cities)
So, a fic where Arthur embraces his inner Yank and Eames loves every bit of it.
Signed,
An American That Pines Oh-So-Much for a fic like this.
And what I'm wanting to do is turn "The Way to a Man's Heart..." into a 5+1 fic, where the +1 is where Arthur manages to get Eames something (a meal or snack, preferably) that he might not be able to get a hold of normally.
So, any suggestions?
Nevermind, I came up with something else on my own. :D
