i'm pretty sure he knows i'm in the city right now. i could use the out of town excuse temporarily i guess but not on a permanent basis

do you think you can fool him?

not long term! i'm obviously in the city doing business here. that's a big lie i can't sustain. could pretend to be out of town for a while, i suppose, but that's it.

can you handle seeing him and realizing we changed his life forever because someone paid us to?

YES but what if he recognizes me? what if he remembers something?

he didn't see you for more than a few minutes, right?

no, i barely even spoke to him.

and at the levels you were at, the chances of him remembering even cobb's face aren't very high. he might tell you that you look familiar.

so basically i shouldn't be having a heart attack over this?

no. if he tells you that you look familiar, just smile and say you have that kind of face

big, charming, airheaded smile. sure, i can do that. uhhhhh do you have any idea what sort of power he might have?

not airheaded. more like the kind of smile of someone who hears that a lot. and i do. he can enter dreams.

really? shit, that could be problematic.

that's what he says. i told him i could teach him.

will you really? if he takes you up on it?

yes. the idea took but i want to see what the aftereffects of inception really are

isn't that a little risky by your standards?

if we perform it again i don't want to leave behind people who kill themselves because they're consumed by an idea

[Sob oh Arthur what you don't know.]

i really don't think we should do it again arthur

[Sob Ariadne knows. SHE KNOWS.]

why?

[Goddammit.]

because the potential repercussions are just too huge. it feels too much like playing god

and that's why i need to know what's going on with fischer

i guess. but i still don't think it's something we should make a habit of. besides, i doubt anyone else is going to manage it anytime soon.

[Someday, someday maybe she'll tell him. He won't thank her for it, though.]

we don't even attempt it for less than a million

*apiece* i would think. and the idea - the idea is the key.
