Title: 'Till Death Do Us Part (And Somehow That Seems To Be Sooner Than Expected)
Authors: coconabanana & slashy_lady
Artists: Illustration by blulious & fanmix+other graphics by coconabanana
Genre: slash, alternate universe
Word Count: 64.010
Rating: NC-17
Characters/Pairings: Arthur/Eames, with almost everyone making appearances
Warning: language, excessive usage of firearms, brief sequences of violence, sexual content.

Summary: When Arthur, an assassin, and Eames, who incidentally is also an assassin, met with each other, they felt sparks of explosion that had little to do with firearms. They fell in lust, they fell in love, and they got married- the complete set. They even got the house with the white picket fence. But marriage is not an easy thing to do. Especially when the people involved have the kind of career that seems to taunt death to do them part. Oh, and the fact that they keep some little things (like, well, the fact that they take people’s lives for a living) secret only puts another strain to their marriage. So amidst the secrets, missions, betrayals, and the pot of gloxinia (yes, the gloxinia is an important plot point), Arthur and Eames try to keep their marriage life… not really normal but as-far-away-from-extraordinariness-as-possible.

A/N: Based off completely from the movie with a lot of differences here and there, particularly the ending. PARTICULARLY THE ENDING. :D
