The Weight of Adoration
by FiaMac
Teenage romances are never kind. "Trevor Scofield is the kind of bad-boy mothers warn their daughters about. It’s a shame they never think to warn their sons, too."

Its All Fire and
by FiaMac
Another backstory short. Years after they first meet, Eames and Arthur cross paths again. "Every time he gets that murderous scowl on his face, Eames just wants to lick him up and down in the messiest of ways. Probably not the most rational response, but then Eames has always been a bit bent."

Gasoline Rain
by FiaMac
A little backstory on what Eames's life was like before he was... well, Eames. There are different sets of rules in life... different people follow different sets, and it’s important to figure out which one you belong to.

The Thing About Eames
by Prinzenhasserin
Eames met Arthur at the Louvre in Paris, when Arthur was seventeen, and looked like twelve. It's winter 1999 and the PASIV gets invented. They exchange a few sentences, and don't meet again until two years after. (Or: why the two most impressive men in the dream sharing business only have eyes for each other.)

endless apologies of paradise
by sinistra_blache
“Vertigo,” Arthur tells him and, because he can right now, he leans into Eames’ side. He’s warm. He’s always warmer than Arthur. “It’s always vertigo. Falling, all the time, even when I’m lying down.” He closes his eyes just in case the world tries to throw him off again.“When did it start?”“Paris.”

I Can Hear His Smile as He Sings
by little_specificity
Since projections look like real people and real people can act like projections, it's weird how Arthur can tell them apart so well.

Letters from Silberer
by Fishwrites
Pre-MI6 Bond was a test subject for Project Somnacin, and one of the few agents who could maintain a stable dream. Even after the Project was discontinued, MI6 has 007 running a particular brand of interrogation: trial and error. Because when you die in a dream, you just wake up.But Silva refuses to crack. And with the clock ticking, they must think of more creative ways find out what he’s done with the list. M wants an extraction. James believes it to be academic theory only. Q is an extremely quick study.Events of Skyfall in an universe where PASIV dream sharing tech exists. (explores military side of dream-sharing, and how 'extractions' as we know it was actually conceived in practice. Knowledge of Inception unnecessary.) - Illustrated by Bjodoodles

Sleep Talking is
by MaruEatsFalafel
Pre-Inception. Getting over an ex who disappeared on you can be hard, even after seven years, and sleeping with them casually may not be the right approach. Sleep-talking fixes everything.
