This fic is going to be updated kind of slowly, since I'm working on my Bangs (and holiday challenges are coming up, eeeeeek), but I am dedicated to finishing! Because [livejournal.com profile] ae_match is over, I've also decided to expand this fic past my original concept, so I've added to the warning list. Apologies if that keeps you from being able to continue.

Tell him you can't do this )

Oh yes, I ship it! In 17 syllables, I can convert you

Whenever I see someone say "I don't get that pairing" it makes me a little sad. So I decided to try and capture what I find most amusing/fascinating/moving about Inception's shipping possibilities, by combining two of my favorite things: PHOTOSHOP AND HAIKU!

They're all 5-7-5, or 5-7-5 5-7-5, or 5-7-5 7-7, which I think is also acceptable. Listed by pairing. Some cheeky, some serious. If some of them have a Softer World vibe it's only because I love it. ~ENJOY~

EDIT: I've been updating with more as I think of them, so check back~

[FIC - Inception] The Paradox Job (Inception Reverse Bang with Birddi)

Art Prompt Title: The Mind Inside The Pointman
Art link: Art Master Post
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] birddi

Fic Title: The Paradox Job
Author: [livejournal.com profile] croik
Pairing(s): Arthur/Eames (main), Arthur/OMC
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 33.7k
Warnings: graphic sex, graphic violence, addiction, non-con fantasy (spoiler: Arthur forces himself on his projection!Eames)

Summary: Canon-verse origin story, how Arthur became a pointman. The first time Arthur shared dreams, he died a horrible death. Two weeks later he was addicted: to dreams, to power, to freedom, and to that stubborn bastard, Eames.

Notes: Ahhhh, this fic. I'm not sure how it happened, but this has become one of the most challenging fics I've ever written. I did my best to incorporate as many themes from the soundtrack as possible and I hope I've done it justice! Many thanks to my betas TK and Chypie, everyone who posted on my feedback entry, and my artist Birddi, for giving me such inspirational music and total freedom over the direction of the fic.

Comments and critique of all kind welcome and appreciated!

From This prompt, Kink Meme round 7. (Eames, being the loyal, handsome protector he is, pointing a gun at a threat's head and yelling at them to back the fuck up as he protects Arthur/Robert. Bonus if it's another extraction team member and said protectee is dying in his arms.)

You want to know what happened in there? I'll show you. )
