I very much enjoyed this. It was very witty and entertaining.

[epistolic]

Ha, thank-you very much! I'm so glad you liked it, darling. ♥

I haven't seen Guys & Dolls for years and I laughed all the way through this. Great stuff, as usual.

[epistolic]

Gaw, thank-you! ♥ ♥

awww ♥♥
This was lovely!

Thank-you so much, so happy you liked! ♥

Eames is radiant.
This is perhaps not the appropriate word, since Eames is wearing a bright blue suit. ‘Fluorescent’ would probably be more apt. ‘Radioactive’ in the scientific lexicon.
LOVE this description.

"I am not in a position to have sex with you.”
“Permit me to turn you around on that desk and we can remedy that pretty quickly,” says Eames.
Brilliant~!

If I were allergic to chocolate, I would CRY. ;-;

“How is this my life.”
That sounds familiar, haha.

And lovely ending. Haven't seen Guys and Dolls but I know enough about craps, given my profession. xD

I think I love you, bb. And ha, I had a school friend who was allergic to chocolate and I was all "OMG SERIOUSLY?" - but yes. Arthur is allergic to chocolate. :grin:

Given your profession? Hmm. Let me guess. Are you perhaps a very sleek, overtly attractive female-version-of-Eames cardsharp?

It's like the people who are lactose intolerant. No chocolate, no milk, no pizza, no cheese. It's tragic. D:

I'm the person who makes Eames all D: when I take away his chips.

I know, right? So sad. I have a friend who is allergic to peanuts. PEANUTS. EVERYTHING HAS PEANUTS/TRACES OF PEANUTS IN THEM. I feel so very, very glad I'm me right now.

FFFFFFFF YOU WORK AT A CASINO? OKAY. I'M GOING TO STORE THAT AWAY INTO MY MEMORY BECAUSE LATER, IF EVER I NEED TO FEATURE A CASINO/GAMBLING IN MY FIC, I MAY COME KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR TO ASK ADVICE.

Hopefully that's okay? ♥

Lol, the title cracked me up, and then the general story (OMG, Cobb running a 'crap' game!!! *rolls on the floow laughing*) plot. Eames' way of courting is definitely unique and utterly hilarious embarrassing , it's the first time I realise the Bible can be use as a weapon too =P Like the ending, probably more than the original musical XD

[epistolic]

Hahaha, I'm glad you liked it so much, bb! Eames is so adorably embarrassing whenever he just exists. I love that man so much. :snuggles him:

Thank-you so much for the lovely comment, dear! ♥
