That's Not Why I'm Lonely by lurrel (R)
Fandom: INCEPTION
Pairing: Arthur/Eames
Length: 32334
Author on LJ:
Author Website: Ao3
Why this must be read:
Lieutenant Arthur leaves his post at an international training camp for dream sharing with his name on classified research and a fondness for Flying Officer Eames of the Royal Air Force. He isn't expecting to see Eames again, and he especially isn't expecting them both to be independently captured by an international coalition hellbent on distributing all possible information on the PASIV device to the general population. After negotiations for their release, the world's leading dream psychiatrist is brought on board to help with their rehabilitation. Dr. Mal Cobb isn't sure if she's up to the task.
AU- a world in which the ‘what are the implications of the technology existing’ has more negative consequences than just creating mind thieves. The story starts with the military research into the limitations of the PASIV, but soon takes a sharp turn where Arthur, Eames, and Yusef are kidnapped by terrorists who try to torture the secrets of the PASIV out of them. They get rescued, but the military isn’t above using their experiences and trauma to get further information on the nature of the technology. Though character interactions- in training, in captivity, in recovery, the fic paints a world that allows for the consequences of mind technology to bring out the worst in people who see every opportunity to take advantage of it.
