A/N - so this is just a quick backstory so you understand where they are as a couple and stuff! I hope to continue this but it got harder towards the end so it probably won't get updated as much as Fire in the Blood and Something About are going to.

Let me know what you think!

Disclaimer- I own nothing I just like to play in Mr. Nolan's sandbox!


Eames and Arthur had been dating for a while, since before the inception job, a few years after that job they decided it was time to retire from the dream share business. They moved in to a flat in London together. They also bought a modest house close to Cobb and Ariadne, who had gotten married the year before, outside of Seattle, so they could visit as much as they liked. A year and a half after they retired Eames purposed to Arthur and they were married three months later on July 8, 2014. When they retired, they took about a month and a half off and did nothing but stay in bed a lot and try to just be happy together. Eventually they both got extremely bored and decided they needed to at least do something to keep themselves busy.

Eames settled on teaching art and theater at a local youth center in London. Arthur had started working on the legal side of dream share. He would be hired by governments and large corporations to train their senior people's mind to combat extraction and inception. He had earned such a reputation that he rarely had to leave to go to the people he trained, they came to him.


A/N-
Eames and Arthur's home outside of Seattle is in Issaquah, Washington which is about 17 miles east of Seattle. I chose for the Cobb's to be living there firstly because the little bit of the landscape found in the film fits the Pacific Northwest but also because it is a place near and dear to my heart. I was born in Renton, Washington a town close to Issaquah and my Mother actually grew up there! I no longer live there and I miss it a lot! I just thought it was perfect so yeah!
