    Summary

    “I’m going to sue you for workplace sexual harassment,” Arthur tries one night at a bar, without much hope.

    “Well, it would certainly be an interesting challenge for your barrister,” Eames allows. “Seeing as we have no legal workplace, I’m wanted in half of Europe, and last I checked you’ve got an Interpol red notice out on you. But sure, absolutely – give it a go. Never know unless you try, and all that.”

    [or: Arthur is married to Eames for the better part of a decade. Then he wakes up.]

    Summary

    Roughly a year after the events of Inception, Dom is killed because he never gave up extraction. As godfather, Arthur is given custody of Phillipa and James. To protect them and keep them safe, he fakes his death and goes into hiding with them. Meanwhile, Eames is mourning Arthur and the chance they never really had together. When he tries to tie up Arthur’s loose ends for him, he realizes: Arthur's already done it. Arthur is alive and Eames sets out to find him.

    Neither of them ever imagined themselves living a normal, domestic life, or being parents. In the end, Arthur and Eames both need to decide what they want out of life, and who they want it with.

    Summary

    Arthur has developed a pretty clear picture of what dreamshare research is, and Eames decidedly does not fit within it.

    But. You don’t start or stay in dreamshare without your own brand of dysfunction. Arthur’s is—and always has been—a deep-rooted inability to let well enough alone.

    Summary

    And as Jayce stands in his house in Northern Piltover, as he looks at himself in his mirror and looks at his aging body and the scars that cover it, as he thinks and thinks about the past and the people—the person—he shared it with, he can confidently say that he has never cared for Viktor.

    Jayce Giopara has never been in love. Maybe he never will be.

    Jayce Giopara is not in love with Viktor. Jayce Giopara is not in love with the Machine Herald.

    The Defender of Tomorrow has no interest in what the Machine Herald does and only cares that he doesn’t threaten the lives of the citizens of Piltover.

    Jayce doesn’t care about Viktor, or his life, or his well-being, so there is no reason for him to go down to Zaun, just because the Machine Herald hasn’t been seen in four months.

     

    Right?
