Inception question

[thrihyrne]

Apparently there's already some Inception slash out there. I've not seen the movie— I'd like to see it, but it's not showing here in the 'burg. Can anyone on my flist whose seen this tell me who the main pairing is? somebody/Eames, I believe? And while there were homoerotic overtones in the film (I believe) there wasn't anything explicit, right? How would you summarize the orientation for those two characters?

Thanks so much! Don't worry about spoilers; I'm going to go see it anyway. This is for my slash article rewrite. Because the first go 'round really wasn't what she wanted to focus on.

Arthur/Eames is the biggest slash pairing to come out of Inception,the Joseph Gordon Levitt character (Arthur) and the Tom Hardy character (Eames). Insanely hot is what you get from both characters in the movies. I haven't read much fic but there is a community, inception fic, is the name I think,they probably have some good meta. There is definite slash quality between them in a snarky kind of way, Personally, I was more intrigued with Ariadne (Ellen Page).

Thanks for your input! This helps. I wish I could go and see the movie. :P

Oh, it's Arthur/Eames, hands down. :)

Unfortunately I've seen the movie in German, so most of the slashy dialogue is actually lost to me, but they were always kind of dissing each other, Eames telling Arthur once, "Dare to dream a bit bigger, darling," and pulling out a much bigger gun than Arthur.

There isn't explicit, no. But the vibes around them both were constantly of tension and being all manly man on prowl (Eames) vs. sharp dressed beau.

Interesting for fandom is probably amongst the obvious, that there has to be some kind of story between them before. The protagonist (DiCaprio) gathers his best men for a last job, and Arthur is all, "Wtf, you want Eames, who is gambling/hiding in Mombasa?" And they meet each other and clash and clash and clash against each other.

Apart from that: the movie is really fun and spiffy. If you're interested in that kind of thing: watch it! :)

(There are other pairings as well, of course. Cobb/Saito, for example. Cobb searches in very dark plains of his own dreams for Saito, who tells him then: "I'll come back and we'll be young men together again." If that's not slashy, I seriously don't know. *g*)

Arthur/Eames. Excellent! It's sounding kind of like a Ron/Draco dynamic, of being at each other's throats and the underlying tension thereof.

I do hope it comes to my wee college town!

if you want the lowdown on the movie and the fic, you've lucked out because i have an inception starter kit:

and yes, this movie's fandom exploded much the same as the star trek reboot did.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the links. I'll go read and absorb!

Check out Pushdragon's journal. She's been reccing a lot of Arthur/Eames.

[thrihyrne.livejournal.com]

Will do. Thanks!

hackthis (http://hackthis.livejournal.com/) has a lot of Inception-related stuff in her journal over the last couple months. Many recs, much discussion.

Thank you so much for the link!

The moment I saw those two on the screen, I KNEW they'd be slashed. Their chemistry is awesome. Lots of cheeky snark. <3

I need an Inception icon.

[thrihyrne.livejournal.com]

It sounds great! I just hope that it comes to Harrisonburg so I can see it…

[thrihyrne.livejournal.com]

And… I'm an idiot. It was released back in July and was probably here and gone, lol!

I saw Inception and enjoyed it, but damn if I remember who all the actors were - except the billionaire's son was Cillian Murphy who is lovely. So, no help here.

Yah! I've turned you on to Inception, even if you haven't seen it yet.

Check out Bookshop's lj http://bookshop.livejournal.com/profile

She has a serious crapload of recs and meta and all kinds of general SQUEE about inception.

Yes the pairing to watch is Arthur/Eames.

I love you babe. I'm slowly working my way back to normalcy!!!

Like hardticket, I had a thing for Ariadne (and I ship her with Arthur, though yes, I think there's something going on with him and Eames). And something with Ariadne and Dom. Also Ariadne and Arthur. There's generally a lot of slashability in this movie (which, coming from someone who does not have slash goggles, is saying a lot.)

I know that marina_il has been x-posting lots of Inception fic on her journal, but I haven't had a chance to read yet. She's a good writer, though - I've beta'd her before, so... yeah. She posts publicly, so you just need to go check out her journal.

Aaaaaand mostly I commented to tell you about this: someone on my flist who has EXCELLENT taste recommended this fic, which is epic long and excellent, and has something going on with Eames/Arthur. I'm passing that along. (And if you haven't seen the movie, this fic actually does a great job of capturing the gist of it, so... yeah. <3)

Enjoy ^^
