Fanmix: Kingdom of Welcome Addiction ~ Dom/Mal

[lezzerlee]

I've been addicted this IAMX album for inspiration in writing Arthur/Eames for the last year now. If you recognize a lot of the lines ... um, it's because I suck at titling things.

I've applied how this album can be interpreted for Dom and Mal's relationship, prior to and after her death.

She didn’t want to live in reality. She could leave her children and her life to escape from something. She was terrified of real life. And giving her limbo was giving her a drug, the way to escape.

i don't know why but this really struck me. i guess because i've never considered mal frightened, before. a little crazy, yes, but not scared. you're so right, though. she was running from real life. that makes my heart drop :<

Cobb is supposed to come with her. He needs to wake up. He’s just a ghost of himself; he could be so much more. They could create so much more. She doesn’t understand why he doesn’t want to wake up, why he’s unwilling to join her. So she plans, a perfect way to show Cobb his error. She’ll take him with her, to their real life.

this is creepily manic, and so spot-on.

overall a stunning work, leslie. can't wait to get it all downloaded :DD
