INCEPTION & WHITE COLLAR
Title: Skybird by windsweptfic (PG-13) & Life in Interesting Times by rapacityinblue (PG-13)
Pairing: Gen, Arthur/Eames
Length: 33785, 16712
Author on LJ:
Author Website: windsweptfic, rapacityinblue
Why this must be read:
Arthur and Eames adopt a kid and raise that kid into Neal Caffrey.
A fic (and its continuation -by a different author) Skybird is mostly from Neal’s POV as he’s a pickpocket kid on the streets taken in by (secretly married spies) Arthur & Eames. They feed his hunger for art and culture (and expose him to the sartorial arts and also stealing and conning). Then Arthur’s boss’s wife kills herself and Arthur leaves the family behind to run around taking dream share jobs with Dom Cobb. Only for a month he said. Eames and Neal travel around the world together for years, running cons, stealing art, before the Inception job happens and Neal can see his parents reunited.
In the sequel, Neal’s working for the FBI and Peter Burke, and his parents come to town for a visit. And someone tries to frame them. Nel has to get the FBI to clear his parents’ names.
The fics are mostly focused on Neal’s pov, and it’s a beautiful mash-up of worlds that make you go ‘suits!’ or ‘con men!’ or ‘art!’. It’s an interesting look at how the personalities Arthur and Eames seem to have could mash up and be distilled into the type of classy sophistication Neal Caffrey puts forth.
