Request: Omg can u do a ”against the wall” kiss with jjpope? im living for ur fics right now

Warning: light smut, but mostly heavy kissing, fluff

Author’s Note: I like writing fluff. Sue me. Anyway, maybe one day I’ll actually go all the way. I hope you enjoy nonetheless.!

It’s a surprise.

Pope wasn’t the best at keeping secrets, or more specifically lying, especially to JJ, but he had worked hard to keep this weekend under wraps. He wanted to surprise JJ, make up for the fact that he hadn’t been able to come home for Thanksgiving. That’s how the plan was hatched and with Kie on his side, he knew it would go off without a hitch.

He had lied to JJ about his plans for the weekend. He was supposedly at a conference for the weekend, would call JJ when he had some free time, but wasn’t sure when that would be. He almost broke when he heard the disappointment in the other’s voice. They had a standing facetime date on Saturday that usually ended in them watching a movie together, but he bit his tongue and continued to apologize and say that he would keep JJ updated.

He’s standing in his house now, pacing the front hall as he waits for JJ to come home. He knows the other got caught up at work, received a message from his father saying that JJ wouldn’t leave until he finished his deliveries. Pope had voiced his disappointment, but his father said that JJ had insisted he get it done before heading home, that he hadn’t been able to convince him otherwise.

It was a bit disappointing, but he had patients. He could wait a little longer, but that was an hour ago. Pope was tempted to go out there and find JJ, just walk around town until he ran into the other. He was dying to see the other, to hold him in his arms for the first time in months.

But then the door opens.

Pope doesn’t even let the other walk in the door. JJ hasn’t even looked up before Pope is slamming the door behind him, shoving him into the hard wood as he presses his lips to JJ’s. “What the-?” JJ starts, eyes wide, but hands are quick to land on Pope’s waist as JJ seems to notice who his attacker is and he easily falls into the kiss.

Pope sighs into the kiss, eyes closed as he brings his hand up to rest on JJ’s cheek, thumb brushing back and forth against the freckled skin. His other hand has made its way around JJ’s neck, fingers playing with the blond hair at the nap, greasy from his day making deliveries. Pope doesn’t even care as he presses closer, groaning with JJ’s fingers dancing across his lower back, pushing his shirt up so they can play over his skin. Pope hadn’t realized how touch starved he truly was until JJ’s fingers were playing over his skin.

Pope doesn’t want to pull away, but his lungs are begging for air because he’s forgotten how to breath now that JJ is in his arms again so he pulls away reluctantly, arms moving to wrap around the other’s neck as he pulls him into a hug.

“I didn’t know you were coming home,” JJ breaths, breath tickling Pope’s neck. JJ’s arms are tight around his waist, like he doesn’t want to let go, doesn’t want to ever pull away from Pope. Pope can relate. He wishes he never had to leave JJ’s arms again.

“That was the point,” Pope replies, finally pulling away so he can look at JJ. It’s the first time seeing him in person in months and he can’t help but let his fingers run through blond hair, long and a bit unruly after his work shift. He had a few more freckles than last time he saw him, probably from the hours in the sun delivering groceries. There are bags under his eyes, tired and worn, from working two jobs, but they shine with happiness as he looks at Pope, like Pope is the best thing in the world, like he’s the only person in the world. “Fuck, I missed you so much.”

He doesn’t even let JJ say anything as he presses his lips to his again, JJ lets out a groan as his back comes into contact with the wall again. The other merely chuckles as he lets his fingers drag up Pope’s back, fingers causing fire to erupt on Pope’s skin, warm and inviting. He still can’t believe how long it's been since he’s had JJ’s hands on him, is so thankful as JJ drags his hands down his back, blunt nail leaving trails across his skin. Pope groans into his mouth, JJ’s own lips pulling up as he lets them slide away from Pope’s lips to trace his jaw, slide down his neck.

“I missed you too,” JJ mumbles into his skin, hands making their way up Pope’s back again. They don’t stop this time though, JJ’s fingers tapping Pope’s shoulder blade, a silent signal to Pope. Pope hums as he lifts his arms, letting JJ toss the shirt aside as his lips attach to his neck again.

JJ takes this opportunity to turn them, Pope’s back hitting the wall next to the door, hip coming into contact with the small table for the desk. He flinches and JJ is quick to tug him away, shift them over a bit more so he can press his back fully against the wall.

Pope takes this opportunity to let his own fingers trail across JJ’s skin, still warm from the sun, sliding his shirt up and over his head. “Bedroom,” Pope mumbles, because he doesn’t really need his parents walking through the door. Plus, he wants to enjoy this moment and doing it at the front door of his house, standing wasn’t exactly romantic or very comfortable for that matter.

JJ pulls away at his words, fingers moving to slip into his as he pulls him toward the stairs. Pope has the sense to reach down and grab their shirts, laughing as JJ takes the steps two at a time, nearly falling as he rounds the corner at the top.

The second the door is closed Pope’s back is against it, lips on his neck. He tosses the shirts aside, smile on his lips as fingers slide down JJ’s back, play with the waistband of his shorts. The shorts are easy to push over JJ’s hips, the other stepping out as they walk their way to the bed. JJ’s knees hit the bed only moments later and the two go tumbling onto the bed, laughs echoing as Pope tumbles a little too far and ends up with his chest in JJ’s face and his arm barely catching him before his shoulder can collide with JJ’s chin.

“Shit, I still can’t believe you’re here,” JJ says, laugh dying down. Pope takes a moment to catch his breath, settle himself properly on top of JJ, arm holding him up so he can look at the other properly. Pope’s breath catches as JJ’s blue eyes shine with love, bright and there for Pope to see.

“Fuck, I love you so much,” Pope breaths, swooping back down to capture JJ’s lips. The other lets his hands slide down Pope’s sides, rest on his lower back as he kisses him back.

The complete list of fics available for the Inception Big Bang 2019 is here!

Works are numbered, without the authors names to preserve the mystery. Artists, when you're ready to make your decision send us an email or a tumblr message with your top 3 choices. Fics will be claimed depending on availability, on a first come first served basis.

On this round we will only assign one artist per fic. Artists that wish to claim a second fic, or that wish to work on a fic that has already been claimed should check out the second round, on July 2nd. All fics will be open for all.

Without further delay, here they are:

1. Arthur and Eames meet as trust fund teens in a Manhattan private school. Eames is a new student who's just moved from overseas, and him and Arthur hit it off immediately. Friendship turns to a whirlwind summer romance, until Eames is forced to move back to London. They meet again many years later when Arthur has to kidnap Eames for a job.

2. A songfic featuring Aubrey by Bread, studying Arthur and Eames and what their relationship might have been like before the Fischer job. The characters aren't going to resemble fanon (Arthur's closed-off persona and Eames's flirtiness). I'm going to try to expand more on what Nolan gave us during the movie (Arthur's straightforwardness and Eames's aloof/cold personality). Basically, Eames is distant and Arthur chases.

* There might be a torture scene, but I'm still debating on whether or not I want that in the story.

3. A fic about arthur and eames and their first meeting in the military to all their other meetings in the criminal underworld of dreamshare. not that long, i'm aiming for 2.5k or maybe 3k if i can. i wanted to focus on their totems and how eames could use forging as a totem (because if he can't forge then he must be awake, right?) but he has a totem just in case. and arthur has a totem (the die from the movie) that he uses a lot more except when he happens to be taken and tortured for some secret or another and the only thing that convinces his brain that he isn't dreaming is the way eames stands when arthur aims a gun at him? if that makes sense....

here's a little bit of what i have written so far:

he’s more surprised at the lack of surprise he feels when eames digs a poker chip out of his desk. its blood red with gold and white accents, worth five thousand dollars at the particular casino it came from, disregarding the fact that it was arthur’s shitty first and last attempt at a real world forge after he participated in a poker game eames held on base many years ago and realized half the chips in the set were fake, pocketing a one thousand dollar chip to use as a reference.

“our totems match,” eames murmurs, flipping the chip over his knuckles with a concentration a bit too intense for something he could do in his sleep (ha).

“match how?” he asks, sipping a glass of orange juice, freshly squeezed because eames wanted to use the electric juicer. he's tempted to pull out his die from his pocket and roll to see it land on five, even though he knows this isn’t a dream.

“i have something that you made, and you have something i made. also, there’s some significance with the number five.”

Side: Dom/Mal

Graphic Depictions of Violence*

*I put the Graphic Depictions of Violence just to be safe but i think it's less than what's shown in the film? because it's supposed to be like an after-torture scene where arthur is like "ouch i'm super hurt and drugged and don't know if i'm dreaming" but again i don't think it's any more graphic than the film at least. might keep that tag just to be safe though idk

4. When dreamshare is first developed, no one has totems. They've always gone into dreams for short amounts of time and always with another person, so there's no chance of someone forgetting their reality. Mal's friend Pip has consistently been pushing the boundaries of dreaming, and one day she decides to go a later deeper without Mal. When Mal wakes up, she realizes that Pip is still asleep and she has to go down after her where she basically incepts Pip with the idea of totems.

5. There was a small lake behind Arthur's house. The following night, he sat at its edge and stared at the moon's reflection in the water.

See something you like?

Arthur turned. A man was sitting next to him.

"Hello," Arthur said. "Thank you for helping me get home last night."

The moon smiled. "How did you know it was me?"

Arthur rolled his eyes. He picked up a pebble and tossed it into the water, watching the waves ripple the reflection. "How can you be here and there at the same time?"

The moon leaned back on his elbows and stared up at the sky. "Same way I can be in the lake and the sky at the same time."

Arthur frowned. "That's not the same thing. The lake's just reflecting the light from the moon. From you."

The moon turned to smile brightly at him. "Well aren't you a smart one, hm?" He leaned in and whispered, "I'm a reflection, too. We all are, at the end of the day."

Arthur thought about that. It didn't make sense, but that didn't mean it was wrong. He looked up at the moon in the sky, then at the moon sitting next to him.

"My name's Arthur," he offered. "What's your name?"

The moon looked at him strangely. "Eames. You can call me Eames."

"I'm going to be an astronaut, Eames," Arthur said. "Then I can come and visit you in the sky."

Eames smiled again. Arthur wouldn't have thought the moon liked to smile. "I would like that very much," Eames said. "Very much, indeed."

9. When Eames first moved to America, he was at a loss for things to cook. He wasn’t used to the supermarkets and ingredients he needed were expensive. So he Googled food bloggers and found Arthur’s blog. The weekly updates keep Eames going in his boring office job. It takes him a few months before he gets the courage to comment but it’s all downhill from there. Eames is lost with Arthur’s sardonic commentary and when Arthur’s next recipe is one Eames requested, he knows he’s in bad.

11. Haunted House AU. Arthur’s working at a popular horror maze escape place to make some extra money over the summer. It’s far from his dream job—making minimum wage crouching behind dark trap doors and chasing random couples and tourists—but at least he gets to vent his frustrations about his coworkers (who are, frankly, driving him insane day by day) by literally screaming at customers. Then there’s Eames, who finds haunted houses boring, overrated, and not the least bit frightening, but is willing to humor a friend (Ariadne?) by accompanying her. But an encounter (and some painfully obvious flirting) with the cute guy under the ghoul mask is enough to make him want to come back again, and again, and again—

FEATURING:

- Cobb as the owner/boss and the only guy who actually takes his job seriously. He probably squints a lot because sunlight genuinely hurts his eyes lmao - Mal as his wife, who used to be an actress but left to start a business with Dom. Super sweet and kind of protective of their employees. Plays the main ghost. She’s terrifying. - Yusuf doing their costumes and makeup!!!!

- Arthur getting the job in the first place because his screams are so full of rage (let! him! rest!)

- Eames blowing all his cash on haunted house admission fees so he can flirt with Arthur (who plays different roles on different days, maybe? but Eames can always recognize him, even under the masks/makeup)

- he’s not trying to be creepy, he just wants to ask if he can see him outside of work/get his number—but something always goes wrong before he can

- Arthur being frustrated because Eames is a) distracting, and b) not easily scared, which doesn’t look good for his job. And it annoys him because he has a track record of being able to freak out anyone. He takes it upon himself to make him scream at least once (I haven’t decided how he does, but he does, eventually. Eames probably jokes about screaming with something other than fear, but i am too babey to write any sexytimes)

- maybe??? mild h/c?? Dumbass Drunk College Students coming in all wanting to prove to their friends that they're the Alpha Male, picking a fight and being super violent/rowdy/destructive, + arthur getting hurt/generally kind of shaken up; that’s the first night he lets eames really talk to him outside of the job, maybe even lets him take him home (i dont know if im including this scene for sure but..perhaps)

- Ariadne getting them banned from the haunted house after reflexively slapping Arthur in the face with a rubber snake (Cobb takes the ‘no touching the actors’ rule seriously—especially after what happened^). Eames thinks he’s lost his chance for good, but Arthur finds him outside and finally makes the first move :)

12. Arthur is in love with Eames, and he's pretty sure Eames is at least interested in him back. Only problem? Arthur is ace, and not at all sure how Eames is going to react to that. But Arthur's going to talk to him about it, because the alternative is to lose even his friendship with the forger, and that's just not on.

Only the team is also determined to set the two of them up. Will that end up being a wrecking ball to Arthur's fragile attempts at making things work with Eames?

STORY OUTLINE:

Arthur is ace, and no one knows. When Eames invites Arthur to join him for Christmas, Arthur panics and says no - and spends the whole of Christmas regretting it. The team comes back from Christmas break, and everything is awkward. Arthur knows he has to say something or ruin his relationship with Eames forever, and he's going to do that at the New Year's party where Eames will hopefully be in a good enough

But unbeknownst to him, he's not the only one who's realized something needs to happen. Cobb, Ariadne and Yusuf agree that an intervention is in order. And when better to set their two friends up than at New Years? Get them kissing and surely the tension between them will resolve itself.

What could possibly go wrong?

At the New Year's party, Ariadne suggests playing a game of spin the bottle. Arthur is less than enthused, but Cobb and Yusuf both back up the idea. They play a few rounds before it lands on Eames, whom Ariadne dares to make out with Arthur.

There's an awkward beat before Eames moves to do it. Arthur reacts by freezing and shying away physically. Eames takes this a rejection and leaves the room. Arthur sits there, frozen, and then leaves too.

He goes to the bathroom and breaks down, blaming himself for being so stupid and backwards. Eames hears him, and comes in and comforts him. Once Eames realizes what the problem is - that Arthur is ace - he promises Arthur that it doesn't matter to him, he just wants to be close to him. Cue happy end credits.

13. Arthur learned a long time ago that he was special, and no else could see the strings.

Or, ‘everything is still the same, but Arthur can see Red Strings of Fate’ AU.

There are moments when Arthur thinks he needs to tell Eames about the strings. Owes him the truth, he thinks, Eames deserves to know. Other times – well.

Eames knows enough, and he has secrets of his own. Arthur is allowed this one.

Maybe someday it will come up on Sunday brunch, or something.

“Oh yeah, by the way, I can see red strings that I’m pretty sure are tied up to being literal soulmates and we have one. Get it? Tied up hehe. Anyway, no pressure or anything. Love the sex.”

Yeah, Arthur, that would go lovely.

Ok folks, the next fics are or may eventually get explicit. Minors, we love you guys! Stay safe. Don’t claim them.

14. Arthur has a goldfish which, long story short, he has convinced himself he only needs to keep alive to prove he is not a hot mess. Except now it’s not looking so good and has a weird sore on its side and he doesn’t know what to do but he can’t just let it DIE. So he takes it to the vet and is scoffed at and told it is a feeder goldfish, they cost less than a dollar, just get a new one.

Two vets later and he’s at the end of his rope when he meets Dr Eames, whose dog is introduced as his PA and goes on all his rounds with him. Dr Eames doesn’t even question it, just starts the exam and tells Arthur to pet the dog and start at the beginning while he works.

15. Eames is working with Arthur the first time in a long while, only now it seems that he has a huge crush on Arthur. He doesn't know how else to get rid of the crush and he really can't concentrate on the job when he's thinking about Arthur all the time, so he asks Arthur to have sex with him, to get the crush out of his system. Arthur agrees surprisingly easily and sex is great, but afterwards Arthur doesn't seem happy and Eames' crush is worse than ever. The more Eames tries to get rid of his crush, the more it sticks, and the less Arthur is talking to him. After the job, Eames has some time to think and he realises that maybe neither of them really wanted for him to get over Arthur. He goes to see Arthur to talk to him about it, but they end up kissing and stuff as well.

16. Summary: Eames hasn't seen Arthur in almost four years.

Pseudo- Winter Soldier AU.

There's no response from Arthur, no recognition in his eyes. No banter, no teasing – a coldness that would leave any lesser man with severe frostbite.

"... Arthur?" The words sound so raw, so gutted in Eames’ mouth. "Are you-" are you alive? Are you dead? Am I dreaming?

He reaches for his poker chip.

But before he can trace the ridges for the familiar grooves, a shot rings out loud like a crack of lightning.

And the last thing that Eames sees is Arthur and how he always remembers him: in his whip-black suit and a smoking gun in his hand.

Bang.

A single bullet tears through Eames' temples, and he is ripped open, pain lighting every nerve in his body like a pinball machine – and he prays to god that this is merely a dream so he can finally wake up.

17. “Taxiing an injured delivery boy around the neighbourhood to help him complete his remaining orders had not been a contender on Eames’ list of potential scenarios for the night. Instead of the morose teenager bleeding onto the synthetic leather of the passenger seat, and the short stack of pizza boxes sliding to and fro across the backseat, the Brit had rather imagined his rental car would serve far more nefarious purposes tonight." -- Essentially, Pizza Delivery Porn Guy Crack A/E AU. Aim: comedic tone with bowchikkawowow.
