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.

we'd need a bigger team, anyway. and i can't exactly invite zatanna along.

yeah something tells me z would have some issues with it. do you even think we could do it without cobb?

cobb's good, but eames and i are the best at what we do. we could manage without cobb, if we had another extractor.

so what you think any halfway decent extractor could manage everything cobb did? and i hope you don't think *i'm* that disposable.

i didn't say that and what cobb did was possibly the most dangerous and stupid thing any extractor could do

you have no idea arthur, you really don't

i have no idea how talented cobb is? or how dangerous?

[Dangerous ground, Ariadne]

no, nevermind.

[Ugh god she can't tell Arthur, Cobb never did, nothing would ever possibly give her the right to tell him. But damn it's tough keeping such a huge thing from him.]

anyway. don't worry about fischer. just be cautious.

oh, always. thanks arthur. don't let z wear you to the bone. actually don't let *yourself* wear you to the bone.
