Fandom: Inception Pairing: Arthur/Eames Rating: Explicit Summary: Arthur usually finds blatant fishing for compliments extremely irritating, but in Eames’ case he is reluctantly charmed. In fact, he writes the phrase “reluctantly charmed” into the Eames notebook the moment the words occur to him because they so perfectly encapsulate his entire situation. (Or the one where Arthur works at a sleep hotline) This one has always been my favorite. I think it's a fandom classic and everyone should read it. And yeah two Sparkledark fic recs in as many days. And what?

Review: This fic is flawless and just amazing. Loved everything aboot it, with self-conscious Arthur and complicated Eames. There is music and novel-writing and helpful work colleges and badly-timed bosses. You will love it.

'He’s not a particularly talkative person by nature. Quiet and shy are words frequently used to describe him, and there is some truth to that, but the deeper truth is that he finds most people to be incredibly dull. An even deeper truth than this is that he secretly fears he’s incredibly dull, that he has nothing novel or interesting to say for himself. He often finds himself wondering, when forced to speak to someone for longer than ten minutes at a time, if that person is quietly contemplating suicide in order to escape the conversation.'
