Fanart for "Anchored" by [livejournal.com profile] wattle_neurotic

It's [livejournal.com profile] inception_bang posting time \o/

I got so lucky, guys! There is nothing I love more than domestic fic and when I read [livejournal.com profile] wattle_neurotic's summary I couldn't write my claiming comment fast enough! I enjoyed drawing fanart for this story so much and I advise you all to go and read "Anchored" now! It is a true delight!

Title: Anchored
Author: [livejournal.com profile] wattle_neurotic
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] aredblush
Rating: G for the art, R for the fic.
Characters/Pairings: Arthur, Eames.
Notes: fanart for [livejournal.com profile] wattle_neurotic's "Anchored", written for [livejournal.com profile] inception_bang.
The pictures are not exactly spoilery... but why would you look at them before reading the story they're based on? Go read it now!

Thanks to L and [livejournal.com profile] angelgazing for the handholding and to [livejournal.com profile] wethepainted for the beta. You girls are the best ♥




Eames paused to buy the paper, keeping a watch on her out of the corner of his eye before following at a languid pace.

She stopped at two food places, picking up a series of sandwiches and sushi, stopping to chat briefly to obviously familiar faces. Eames traced her movements, memorised her laugh and the way she held herself, the curl of her hair and the way her clothes fell - tight in all the right places. Her shoes matched her lipstick (of course) and a pair of glasses were perched on her nose.





When he was satisfied with the amount of water, he plonked the kettle back onto the stove and moved the tea pot back to the bench, popping its top on and then leaning against the counter.

“And?” Arthur asked, waving a hand as if to emphasise his question.

“And now we wait, for three to five minutes.” Eames smiled, “I told you it was an art, nothing to be sneezed at.”

I feel like tea-drinking is required when you're English but I do love me some good coffee. Coconut latte, mmm <3

Ahahah, the Italian in me demands espresso all the time... but I do enjoy a good cup of tea once in a while :)

A good espresso is a thing of beauty. Literally, the darkness of the liquid and the small cup, I love it. Tea sets, too. The drink is more important than the aesthetics, of course, but man, they make it special.

No no, you are completely right! Every hot drink needs its proper cup! It's part of the experience, imo :)

Definitely. Having said that my cup of tea is in a mug with a geisha on it xD

Ohh, lovely! My espresso is in a thick-rimmed white cup with a dark blue stripe in the middle :) *raises cup in toast*
