I was worried that there would be no happy ending, but there is and I'm very glad to see it. It thrills me to see that Dom has finally taken a the first steps to changing and learning from his mistakes. Atoning for them, as well, with regards to Nash.
If only Arthur could be less of a dickhead about the whole thing, I'd be pleased as punch.
Okay, so I am anyway, BUT REALLY ARTHUR, YOU PETTY BASTARD. *huffs*
This was action-packed and a really interesting exploration of everyone's character. Nothing to do with you personally, but damn I am amazed that this is so coherent through all 50,000 words. Because just me myself, I could never do it. I prefer to write one-shots, or I get so rambly I forget all about what I was supposed to be writing in the first place. I'm working on an Eames/Yusuf fic ( ... )

To respond to your earlier comment about Cobb changing too fast, I totally agree. I tried to make it seem like he really had always harbored those feelings, and that was the explosive way that it came out, but at that point, it seemed really out of character for him to take such a dramatic shift. I hope that some of the later wavering back and forth helps to mitigate the sudden transformation and show how reconciling the present with the past fucks with Cobb's head. XD
You can tell I love Yusuf, Eames, and Saito, huh? XD I think they are the biggest BAMFs in the whole movie and really deserve their time in the spotlight versus the amount of text dedicated to Arthur out there. (I didn't try to make him a dick per se, but this is what happened when I focused all of my love on more deserving characters ( ... )

I think Arthur is kind of a dick, personally, so it's not that I really minded. I just hated him for not being supportive, lol. I guess I get where he's coming from, though, since Dom hasn't exactly been the BEST FRIEND EVER all these years. I don't know. Maybe I'd be testy, too, in Arthur's position. *shrug*
Ahahaha, I know just what you mean. My Eames is such a reflection of me it's totally not even funny anymore. I am deeply worried for the future of his character, LOL. Delight in that fucked up side of yourself---better on paper (well, a computer screen, anyway) than wreaking havoc in your head. ;)
*huggles you back* :)

I was super happy Arthur got his kids in the end. I liked that he just went and took what he wanted, including Dom's wife ;). I think you did a great job with Ariadne. And Eames *_____* I think you know how I feel about him.
And aww Yusuf taking a break to have some badassery in his life <3 ( ... )
