hackthis' Song of the Moment: Jason Derulo's 'Ridin' Solo'

You don't understand: I have an unhealthy attachment to this song, but I don't care.

This song is so goddamn catchy I may never recover. Have a copy

Runner up: Janelle Monae's 'Cold War.' Get it.



Inception Recs (Eames/Arthur unless otherwise noted)

In alphabetical order:


Back Against the Wall by ashinan -- Angry!sex is not one of my kinks but Jealous!Arthur that leads to Angry!sex? Uh, the words "fuck yes" immediately spring to mind. This is seriously scald-your-eyeballs hot.

fire favored by andrealyn -- Ten words: Inception Mutant!AU. Arthur is a firestarter. Eames is a shapeshifter. INORITE!

five times eames was (shockingly) a gentleman by deepsix -- I first found this via the inception_kink comm, but the author was anonymous, which drove me crazy. Why do y'all tease me with this anonymous shit? How am I supposed to praise you properly if I don't know your name! Bah. Thankfully, deepsix stepped up and took ownership of the awesome contained herein. And y'all, it is awesome. The story is fairly self-explanatory from the title, but I just adore Eames here. I adore Eames anywhere, but especially here, because of his restraint and his desire to do shit right.

Inception_Kink Fill: Eames woos Arthur with poetry by handsomespeck -- I think the Request says it all "Eames. Poetry." It's short but classic. <3 Eames

Inception_Kink Fill: M from James Bond as Eames' mother by pyrimidine -- Do I even need to tell you to read this? Do you see what this prompt is? Exactly. And it was written by moneyfolder. THIS SHIT IS MONEY IN THE FUCKING BANK. No, seriously, like I may have spontanously combusted. Tell her to write more. Beg. Invegle. Offer children, kittens, goats, virgins if there are any left, because if she doesn't write more I'm going to be very very very sad.

If You're Just Playing Along, I Promise We'll Be Fine by foxxcub -- A point man and a forger walk into a bar...oh, wait, wrong story. A point man and a forger get drunk in a bar and it's adorable and involves PDA and posessive!Arthur. Yeah, FTW.

Prison Bars and Snail Shells by ifeelbetter -- Arthur goes to prison. Like you do. Eames is not down with this turn of events. And then he does his best Houdini and it's like the most fabulous thing ever. There is vomiting of keys! What? Does that not make you gleeful too? Infidel.

Sort of Revolution by pyrimidine -- Arthur is not a morning person. Eames accomodates him. Bless.

tonight I'm a hurricane by sabinelagrande -- Arthur and Eames... and Ariadne. maurheti said, "It's hot." I said, "Can't be that hot." She said, "Yeah, it is." I said, "Fine, I will read it." And then I had to lie down in the walk-in freezer for an hour or two.

Two Steps Towards Make Believe by ifeelbetter -- If you don't know what it is to suffer from insomnia, consider yourself lucky. And no, that one time you only slept five hours instead of eight doesn't count. Arthur doesn't sleep, hasn't slept in years (which believe me is possible), but when he gets near Eames. Well. I reckon Eames can fix anything.

we walk the same path (but got on different shoes) by lastling -- Eames is an assassin; Arthur is a handler. IT'S LIKE THIS FIC WAS MADE FOR MY KINKS. Seriously. Or as I told the author, "Well, that was delightful as hell, holy shit.." Seriously, if this doesn't leave you grinning from ear to ear I don't even know what to do with you, like for real, go sit in the corner for twenty minutes.

When No One is Around You by moonythestrals. Okay this is a story about Eames' first name. And Arthur's last name. Or Arthur's first name. What you never considered that 'Arthur' is his surname? C'mon, now. Anyway, this story should be read for that idea alone, but to me that's incidental to what's really important about this story. Two words: Wee Eames. Exactly. Off you go now.


If you enjoy the stories, please let the authors know. Authors need love and support and water to grow.

How are you awake and coherent right now?

Downloading the Janelle Monae song - love it, thanks for sharing!

[maurheti.livejournal.com]

That song has taken over my brain, I will have you know...! Strangely, I don't mind. Also, JANELLE! ♥

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, WOMAN. Get that song away from me /o\

GDI that song is going to be in my head FOREVER now, isn't it. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

These recs are brilliant, btw :D *saves this post to read them all later*

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Embrace the Jason Derulo.

This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqWq_48LxWQ) is my guilty pleasure jam right now. It's AWFUL...and I love it.

Thanks for the recs. I'm pretty sure I've read all of them, but I'm working on a massive delicious/rec post thing and now I don't have to worry about adding in descriptions. Actually, I'm pretty sure I'm just going to link, add a summary, and call it a fucking day. There are just too many fics out there.

(I've been rocking out to Mike Posner too lately. He's just so catchy!!)

[wordsalone.livejournal.com]

I go from the American Idiot soundtrack to the Inception score...to Mike Posner. Damn him.

[aurora]

You would not believe how often I've played 'Speed of Sound' in the last month or so. Mike Posner, man.

[goss.livejournal.com]

Heyyyyy, I finally saw the movie last night, so thank you for the recs!! :D

[circe-tigana.livejournal.com]

LMAO. I came to see what you were up to -- and coincidentally had said to B the other day, "I bet there's Eames/Arthur fic already". I am so wayy behind on everything ;)

Thanks for the recs (I think) and HI!

[susan-voight.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the recs! The volume of Inception fic out there is overwhelming and these really help.

[aurora]

Recs, glorious glorious recs. Thank you!

And that JD song is way too catchy, wtf.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Embrace the Jason Derulo! Also, I'm always behind on everything but I'm glad you liked the songs on the E/A mix.

[aurora]

There is also a Live Lounge live version of 'Ridin' Solo' (that I stumbled upon entirely by accident)! And it doesn't sound half-bad. :D

[acroamatica.livejournal.com]

Name!fic! Hurrah. I have my own theories, but am relatively convinced that Arthur is his last name. I just hate that the most pressing mystery about the whole movie, for me, is not to do with Cobb at all, but is instead the sort of thing I can generally settle with a quick IMDB run, except NO, because Christopher Nolan is driving me crazy. I WANT TO KNOW THEIR NAMES. [/tantrum]
