Summary
It should not, he thinks, surprise him that he ends up at the Slat, the black-painted ramshackle of a structure still leaning as precariously as ever. But, he is surprised all the same, just faintly, when the building stands before him, looming as it has for the entirety of his time in Ketterdam.
--
Or: Jesper grapples with loss, the sting of all the Crows going their separate ways, and learns that forgiveness comes in varying shapes. -

Summary
Brick by brick, he thinks, finding some dark humor in how the meaning has changed. Perhaps he should find another way to describe the process. But no, this one serves well—brick by brick, he'll dismantle this wall he's built, leaving himself bare under her gaze.

Summary
Because even though it's been five months and three weeks since she left, there's a rattle in his ribs that aches with her gone. He hates it, how much he misses her. It feels like a weakness, one he keeps thinking someone will find out if they look in his direction for too long. As though he's become as transparent as glass between her being here and her leaving.
(A five times fic).

“You’re ridiculous,” Eames says, laughing against Arthur’s mouth. “How did you become so ridiculous?”

“Well,” he says at last, contemplative, “I do like those cookies.”

Summary
Another relic of a comment fic, which was written on the fly comment-by-comment and has not be edited since. Saved from the void by the very good @castillon02 so we can now all enjoy the adventures of Cigar, the world's smallest dog, and his love affair with Shoe. Also, Baker Eames and Steampunk Bistro Waiter Arthur as they pitch woo in any given direction.

Eames tackles him from behind, brings him down onto his belly on the carpet, and plants a knee in his back. “What,” he pants, “the hell.”
Arthur gets into trouble, and can't remember how he got there. Eames lends a hand.

“Peter Hanrahan,” he says. “From Des Moines.”
“Come on in,” Arthur says, and Eames does.

Before Eames gets his world knocked out from under him by a pretty smile, there is the first time.
