baby, it's cold outside

hahaha guys, I'm so sorry; this took so long. *___* even taking into account corrupted files and writer's block, this shouldn't have taken this long, but that's just another reason why I should never write wips.

I have many mixed feelings about the writing here, but if I don't get this out now, I'll probably just sit on it forever, so here it is. so many thank yous to weatherfront for listening to my rambly emails and letting me bounce ideas off her - and to jibrailis, who offered her help as well (which I may still take up later ♥ - it's just that this chapter is so late already ahahaha), and to everyone on my flist for listening to my whining. you are all fantastic. ♥

eames wakes up five years in the future.

( Ariadne contacts them about a job. )

so uh. I've been working on this Eames-wakes-up-five-years-in-the-future fic on and off for a while now, and it was originally supposed to be aznanimefan's christmas fic, but I think it's clear by now how much success I've had with getting this done within a decent amount of time.

I normally don't like doing wips because I have this horrible horrible track record of not finishing any of them (also, because I don't plan my fics out properly and so a few thousand words in, I realize that I should have set up the beginning differently, and if it's already been posted, it's too late for me to change it) - but if I don't get this first part out, I have a feeling that I'll just sit on this until it rots on my laptop. the plan is hopefully, to post this part, so that I can then stop OCDing over it and work on subsequent parts. SO YES. title is blatantly stolen from soco's hurricane.
