mirabellaTitle: Akallabêth
Fandom: Inception, Arthur/Eames, PG-13.
Summary: Ariadne knows their point man has his eccentricities. She just doesn't know where they come from. Neither does Eames, until it's too late.
Warnings: Prior character death. Ends rather miserably.
Notes: The following strip of highlighting contains spoilers for the fic. Some people want to be warned about stuff like this in advance (me, for instance), and some people like to figure things out as they go (which I do too on occasion), so I've blacked it out. I recommend reading it, but it all depends on whether or not you want to see the iceberg coming.
Way back in (I think) round 1 of inception_kink, somebody posted a prompt for a fic where Arthur was actually dead, having been killed by Mal as part of her whole process of severing Cobb's ties to the world. I've lost the link now, and at any rate someone else said they were going to fill it, but I wanted to give it a shot.
There are now sort-of-epilogues here and here.
( When Ariadne meets him, she's screaming. Wake me up, wake me up, wake me up, and it doesn't work, it never works in dreams, and there's a knife so close to her now that she can't even see the woman holding it, so it's no wonder that the sound of breaking bones doesn't register at first. )
