When a Man Loves a PASIV by eleveninches (PG-13)

So I signed up for this fandom when I realized that a) there’s still pretty awesome fic being written, and b) there’s so much good fic out there that it's a pleasent way to spend forever working through it all. The recs already on this comm barely scratch the surface of good reads out there and I wanted to add to that list if I could.

Fandom: INCEPTION
Pairing: Arthur/Eames
Length: 12792
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] eleveninches
Author Website: Ao3
Why this must be read:
"Everyone knows Eames was trying to accomplish inception for years. Are you expecting me to believe you tried it once and pulled it off?"

Comedic, in the realm of canon, takes the idea of ‘Dom Cobb was incompetent”, and tells the fic from his point of view. Fandom, or at least the parts of it I’m familiar with, has seem to come to the consensus that Dom Cobb really didn’t do much in the film except screw everything up at nearly every turn. In this fic, Cobb doesn’t seem to realize that and after sitting at home with his kids for a while, wants to get back in the game. A number of people aren’t too happy about that including most of his former inception teammates. With good reason.

Told from the perspective of a resoundingly clueless POV (Cobb), the comedy oozes through the tone and the perspective and the sheer clueless in regards to viewing the reactions to everyone around him.
