Poll SERIOUS BUSINESS QUESTION

I'm kind of tickled pink by this idea but I hear that it is HIGHLY CONTROVERSIAL. So now I am curious what the internet thinks. =D

ETA: As people are telling me, Arthur probably does not have a canon last name (nor Eames a canon first name). So I guess the more accurate question is: DOES IT AMUSE YOU TO THINK ARTHUR'S LAST NAME MIGHT BE

I approve so hard of the Peter Pan reference implicit in that. *grins* (Mith thinks his last name is "Darling," too.)

[vikki]

Honestly? Someone used it in a fic (concinnity_blue?) where Arthur was like 'STOP CALLING ME DARLING' and Eames is like 'BUT IT'S YOUR LAST NAME! DAAAAAARLING =DDDDDDD' and it was amazing. Because Eames doesn't say it like a last name. heeee. So. I'm kind of all over that.

(And yet I never write Arthur/Eames ... why is that?)

[puella_nerdii]

I've seen it used in a few places! I think pinstripesuit told me about it first, and I thought it was hilarious, so I kinda wove it into my headcanon. And Eames is totally that kind of dick. :D

(I don't know, but I haven't, either. Ariadne's the one who's sort of moved into my head. But Arthur and Eames are fantastic.)

I don't know if this is true but OMG I WANT IT TO BE. It would be hilarious, because Arthur is so rigid and stuck up and THAT SURNAME WOULD EXPLAIN A LOT.

[vikki]

THAT SURNAME WOULD EXPLAIN A LOT.

THAT WOULD BE AMAZING.

[vikki]

There needs to be a million fics of Arthur being like 'STOP CALLING ME THAT' and Eames going 'BUT IT'S YOUR LAST NAME =DDD'. In my humble opinion, of course. =D

[inteligrrl]

Of course. He's really a former lost boy too, as his family has always had a history of trips to never never land.

[vikki]

HAH.

I have a serious headcanon for Arthur's past, but the rest of me keeps wanting the ridiculous story where Arthur is an ALIEN. AN ALIEN THAT USED TO BE CALLED TOMMY.

[vikki]

I DID. IT WAS PRETTY AMAZING YES. I GUESS I JUST WANT MORE. (ALSO BECAUSE I WOULD BE DEEPLY AMUSED IF SOMEONE WROTE IT WITH FOCUS ON ARTHUR BEING AN ALIEN OR WHATEVER.)

there is a chance that I also just want straight up 3rd rock fic. Tommy and Dick being assholes to each other. I need more of this. Am disappoint show did not bring me more of such hilarity.

[su_dama]

i can dig it.

[vikki]

I just need to find the fic somebody wrote where Arthur is like 'would you stop calling me by my last name?' and Eames is like, what? You mean ... NO. REALLY? And then I'll have this out of my system. :)

THAT FILL WAS GENIUS. Arthur being DEEPLY OFFENDED about the whole thing just makes my day. DAMN YOU ROUND 1. YOU ARE FULL AND I CANNOT TELL THE AUTHOR OF THEIR GENIUS!
