Lindt is swiss (not swedish, although their Marabou brand isn't all so bad), and why didn't you go for Belgian instead... aaaaaaaaaaaa... Oh and atenolol might give Cobb diabetes :) hehe.

Otherwise, yay!! brand new ways of incorporating Inc (Mal! the dice! ♥) and oxymorons (Saito buying legality!! Bible, z ultimate destruction tool) and yes, as per usual, Cobb does sorta steal the show!

So freakin' happy you're posting, you'd not believe it :)

Oops. I officially fail at chocolate. This is unacceptable and downright embarrassing. I must go and reacquaint myself with Lindt immediately, ideally by consuming large quantities of it. And haaa, atenolol? My mum takes it for her blood pressure, so I kinda just stole it. My pharm is pretty crap. I did it half a year ago and I HAVE FORGOTTEN EVERYTHING.

Thank-you for reading, darling! You are wonderful as always, and I love you to bits. ♥ ♥

Nope, you are wonderful (man, I feel like these women at idk, flower exhibitions or whatever).
My progenitor of the female species takes it as well, but for her arrhythmias.
(still a pretty pop. drug, however less favored in the UK lately because of an increased risk of DM? Idk, I hate all of this internal med stuff)

Med confuses me so much, and I'm not actually even in Med. TRYING TO WRITE A STUPID NEUROANATOMY ESSAY ON ALZHEIMER'S. WHICH TYPICALLY I WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH, BUT THEY WANT US TO WRITE IT IN THE STYLE OF NEW SCIENTIST. LIKE, WTF. HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO TALK ABOUT NMDA RECEPTORS AND MEMANTINE AND SO ON IN A NEW SCIENTIST ARTICLE.

:cries:

No, really, the movie is absolutely adorable and cute and everything. I loved it so much, I actually fangirled about it and contemplated writing fic for it (Sky/Nathan NEEDS TO HAPPEN), but there is no Guys and Dolls fandom, which is understandable since the movie is like 50yrs old. BUT STILL.

So happy you loved this, darling! ♥ ♥

LOL, I haven't even seen Guys and Dolls and I found this hilarious!

[epistolic]

Gaw, that's awesome (and a huge relief)! Thanks so much, darling! ♥

I haven't seen the movie, but my high school put on the musical during my senior year; I got to creep around during rehearsal and snap pics for the yearbook.

I laughed through most of this. Okay, all of it. Oh Eames <3 Oh Arthur <3

[epistolic]

Gaw, that's great! Thank God it was actually funny in some bits, I was worried it would be just silly. Thanks so much for reading and commenting, hun! ♥

I love this. I loved Guys and Dolls when we did it in high school and this is simply a million times better.

I did a sketch for you, because I loved that scene. It's quick and sloppy and this fic needs properly cracky fanart, but I hope you like it.

[epistolic]

Oh, darling! I don't know what to say! I just - Arthur is so cute in your sketch, I just. I hope you don't mind me linking to it everywhere, it's just so utterly adorable. ♥

Thank-you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed it, I don't even. Thank-you. ♥

OH, ARTHUR. :D :D :D YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO GET THE BREAKFAST-EATING BROOKS BROTHER'S TYPE AND INSTEAD YOU GOT PAISLEY SHIRTS AND GAMBLING ADDICTIONS. <3

I love this so much, you are the greatest. <3333333333
