Arthur and Eames

Arthur and Eames have been partners for longer than they've been with the organization. Both started out as criminals in two different fields, but the word of dream sharing brought them together. Arthur, a brilliant tactician, and Eames, a forger in every sense and meaning of the word, started out almost adversarial. One crisp and sharp with a military precision and the other messy and wild and dangerous in other ways they found it interesting to work with one another, to say the least.
In the end though they learned that friction between them was all about attraction and once they opened up to one another, the world for them changed.
Now they've walked away from dream share to work for an organization that keeps America safe, protects its people, and lets them do what they do best. Subvert criminals by twisting the law.
Everyone knows they're not just partners in the work sense but in every sense. In love. Devoted to one another. Able to read the other without a word, Barely with even a look. They're not as tightly wound as some in the Ravens, and certainly cause a lot of trouble in different ways, but they're good at what they do... and they're feared by those that know the truth of who and what they are.

Actually? The Lacemaker by Vemeer.

[ At one point, in the early days of their partnership, no doubt he said it in a condescending way. Now? After how their relationship changed, grew and only became stronger, it was fond. ]
That's a great choice.

It's a beautiful piece and I haven't done one of his in a while. Getting things out now to work on it.
no subject
How much time do you need to complete it? I’m tying up a few loose ends and will head back when I’m done. Let me know if you need anything.
no subject
I'm picking up some supplies in about an hour. After that? I could be done by next week? Beginning of? I have some canvasses left to repurpose, and the paints I'm getting are revitalized older paints so just have to have the right ones.
no subject
Perfect. I'll schedule the hour for after it's complete.
no subject
You are a delight, Darling. I may need you for a distraction though.
no subject
We've done this enough times that I already planned on it.
I would like to not get kicked out of Paris though so let's try not to burn any literal bridges.

And I will never turn down new art. You know that.

I'm picking up dinner on my way back. Thai or Mediterranean?
no subject
Mediterranean. I'm going to take a shower. Don't be long, okay?

Or, we could order room service...
[ And now Arthur wants to skip getting dinner to join Eames in his shower. ]
no subject
Otherwise better bring me food.

"Menace," he says with a smirk, looking at his partner as he shrugs out of his jacket.

"You nearly missed out. I was going to lock the door if you didn't make it," he teases, though they both know he doesn't mean it. He just wanted Arthur there and it shows as he reaches out a hand for him.
"Come on then, Darling."
no subject
"Now, we have at least three weeks until we're called again," he says, leaning in and nipping playfully at Eames' jaw. He needed this... needed Eames.
no subject
And then there's those words though and he can't help but to smile as he wraps his arms around Arthur's waist and draws him in close. "Three weeks. I like that. Paris and heists and happiness. I think I can live with that."
no subject
"I am hoping we spend some of that time in bed- or wherever," he says and steps back so that he can start stripping out of his suit. Everything was taken care of and they had a flight out first thing in the morning. Their accommodations in Paris were taken care of and they were free to spend the next three weeks at their leisure.
Even if they'd been warned to not create any international scandal after the last time. Truly, that was only because they had wanted to create a scene. They'd done more of these than anyone knew and had yet to make a blip on anyone's radar.
no subject
"So make sure to put me there exhausted, Love," he teases, grinning at him as he reaches for the waistband of his boxers and pushes them to the floor. His robe follows a few minutes later.
"Come on then,' he says with a wink, backing for the bathroom.
