Six hours after Inception.
They're outside of a bar, Eames slouching on a streetlamp. The smoke from the group gathered round the front of the bar is blowing their way, over to where Arthur is standing, staring Eames down.
The fluorescent pinks and blues of the club are reflected in Arthur's cheekbones, playing out across his suit. It's incongruous. Arthur looks stunning, somehow untouched in his designer suit among the smoke and haze of Los Angeles' nightlife.
He's smiling at Eames, a private twist of his lips that Eames has spent years thinking about in his less proud moments.
"Take a picture, love." Eames says, gently. He's merely teasing. He'd spend a lifetime against this lamp pole if Arthur stayed right there, smiling at him.
To his surprise, Arthur laughs. "If I had a camera, I would. Fuck, I'd take more than one."
Eames smiles along, shifts closer. "You're in a good mood," he observes.
"You aren't?" Arthur asks incredulously. "Inception, Eames. No one's done it before."
Eames shakes his head, lets out a breath. "We're lucky we got out alive."
Arthur doesn't stop smiling, ever deadly. "Whatever," he says, waving a hand with uncharacteristic looseness. "Dom's home. I'm going to take a vacation. Fuck, maybe I'll retire. Go live by the beach or something."
Eames scoffs. "We both know you'd be bored in a month."
Arthur turns towards him, swaying slightly. "God. I haven't been bored in so long."
"What's that they say, about idle hands?"
Arthur leans into him now, looking at him through his eyelashes. Eames has faced down gunrunners with his heartbeat going slower than it is now. "Eames," Arthur says, soft and quiet against him.
"Arthur," Eames echoes, numbly.
"Come home with me."
"What?" Eames asks. It's not his finest moment, but it's all he can think to ask.
"Come home with me," Arthur repeats, clearer this time. "I don't have anything to do tomorrow. Or anytime in the foreseeable future. Today was a shitshow, and we got through it alive. Tomorrow, when we wake up, I want to be home, and I want you to be there."
For a second, Eames is so bowled over by the confession that he forgets to respond. When he finally gets his wits about him, he has to clear his throat before he can even begin to speak.
"Darling, I thought you'd never ask."
The smile that spreads across Arthur's face in response is lit up pink and blue.

okay I KNOW this meme is old but it materialized in my mind the moment I saw this photo, so I decided to make that everyone else’s problem

Eames: I always knew you wanted a piece of me. You can barely look away from my lips
Arthur: Bitch I’m lip reading that explosion deafened me

I love and worship the beloved “mustn’t be afraid to dream a little bigger darling” but ALSO can we please talk about the moment leading up to it? how right after “do it faster!” Comment (a misplaced anger) by Arthur to eames, When eveyone is hating each other and themselves, and eames who really didn’t have to help Arthur (mr-i-missed-the-part-about-fischers-militarized-mind-so-i-have-to-take-all-of-them-down-myself), stayed behind to help him?, I haven’t seen anyone talk/write about this part quite as much as the beloved “darling” comment, cause eames KNEW his idiot husband is blaming himself and just went there to help him and show that he’s not alone? Can we please??
You are correct, nonnie. I suppose I never really noticed Arthur taking it upon himself to deal with the combative projections all on his own in that warehouse, as if compelled to do so. They didn't really need to take them on (or any of them out really) - yes, they were getting 'boxed in' but the rooftop snipers weren't really a threat tbh. They'd be hoofing it outta there in that van in a matter of minutes, regardless.
A: How are we going to reconcile them if they're so estranged?
E: Well I'm working on that, aren't I?
A: Do it faster.
Arthur says 'do it faster' and then goes to take on snipers all by himself. Arthur, who can't just sit around and twiddle his thumbs while they're loading Saito up in the car. Arthur, who may have cocked up this whole job and Cobbs chances off ever getting home by missing the militarisation. Arthur, who must not only must he be blaming himself for this, but he must also be absolutely terrified and cannot, will not show it. Before, the job was a long shot. Now it's a gunshot between him and limbo and whatever horror Arthur perceives limbo to be. It's one gunshot between everyone else and limbo (purgatory? hell?) and them never coming back - or worse, coming back wrong.
Maybe Eames was being cocky and trying to get a rise out of Arthur. Maybe he was trying to distract him. Maybe it's all of the above and Eames knew Arthur enough to know he was kicking himself. What Eames did was he took a bit of the load off Arthur's shoulders with a size joke masqueraded as (valid) advice and a 'darling' and a big ol' explosion - and I think that is one of the reasons why dreamhusbands is so powerful. Because we love the 'darling' line, god knows I do, but what we really love is all the text and subtext that came before it - 'darling' didn't create the Arthur/Eames fandom - it's just another ingredient in the stew.
Eames says 'darling' and we hear 'darling' (supportive), 'darling' (derogatory), 'darling' (affectionate), 'darling' (cautionary). Their entire relationship throughout the film is laden with loaded words and unspoken words that speak to their history. And that really is the thing - Eames didn't need to be there. He didn't need to tell Arthur to 'dream bigger' in that moment. Eames, who is trying to juggle a severely shortened timeline and has as much pressure on him than anyone else, if not more, to try and play therapist to Fischer, still didn't let Arthur's snappish finger-clicking get a rise out of him. Still saw in Arthur what Arthur was feeling. And Arthur, who says 'do it faster', welcomes Eames helping him out - in fact, when he sees Eames approach, his whole body relaxes like his strings were cut. It's fucking teamwork.

Somewhere beneath the compulsive flirting, Arthur senses Eames’ warm affection. It hasn’t always been obvious. But he’s worked with Eames more often in the past eighteen months than he has before, and in that time he’s become more attuned to Eames’ frequency. [x]
It’s time for the @inceptionbigbang again! This time I had a great pleasure of drawing a cover for a fic written by @boundinshallows ❤

so,
I love the kick scene. The cheeky smirk, the exasperated look, the dangling legs and steady foot hovering near the unstable chair and how mr. zimmers music gives the perfect drop to create one of the most visually satisfying scenes ever.
but.. I also like the immediate line which precedes it.
Tumblr media
from the beginning of the movie, we get to see snippets of how arthur is well and truly done with Cobbs shit and the unpleasantness it brings. he knows cobb can potentially sabotage the entire mission, and being the pointman, he needs to ask the important questions, he needs to know how they all wake up. But here, he brings up the previous mishap. while arthur really doesn’t need to add the part he got shot by cobb, he says it anyway..
Is it anger? Is it frustration? Or is it both? Is it both of those and also cause he’s hurt?
that wasn’t the first time arthur was killed by either of his best friends, and even though it comes as some sort of twisted mercy from cobb, it still stings. He hides it as much as he can but he’s only human. it’s not easy to gloss over the fact that despite not being able to kill his own projection, cobb is always ready to kill his only friend who dropped everything and ran away with him. he doesn’t show remorse over it and even here, when arthur does mention it, the most cobb manages is an exasperated eye roll. it’s all arthur will ever get from dominic “one apology” cobb.
eames sees this. he sees thru the brittle anger and fragile frustration and sees how hurt arthur really is. eames also knows that he can’t interrupt and may be try giving a cobb piece of mind or acknowledge arthurs pain, both eames knows that Arthur wouldn’t appreciate. So he goes with one thing he has always been good at in getting Arthur to relax a little.
Distraction. tried and tested and confirmed over the years to get an exhausted arthur to smile, a scared arthur to chuckle, a stressed arthur to smirk, a worried arthur to snort or a sad arthur to give a fond eye roll.
and it works. the moment is stolen from cobb and eames can’t help by smile at arthur levelling him with a lovable bitch face. It’s not perfect, and may be a poor substitute for a hug that eames really wants to give, but he knows he has made arthur tear himself from a bad memory and look at eames with a promise of some laughter.

i am thinking about this....this eames smile, the kindness in his eyes, there's so much and yet it's all so obvious. it's "your hair is curling against your neck in a way that i love" it's "your forearms in that shirt and vest drive me mad and i dont know why" it's "your head is stuck in your moleskin notebook and u won't look over and see how desperately im in love with you, 2 feet away in the backseat of this cab"

i think my favorite arthureames moments are the ones that are private. of course, i love "you mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger darling," because how could i not, but i love the juxtaposition of the scenes in front of people and the ones where they're alone.
some of the scenes where it shows that they care about each other, genuinely care, are when they're mostly private. arthur screaming, frantically, checking if eames is alright when they get attacked. eames expressing concern for arthur, "security's gonna run you down hard," when they're talking to each other while everyone else is busy.
they snipe at each other in public, but privately, it's "darling," and "just be back before the kick," and "i will lead them on a merry chase." they have this language that other people don't see, or get to see, because it's just for them.
