katikat"The Rebel French" by primavera | Arthur/Eames | Arthur barely registers the bullet through his knee. It's the second bullet that does it: hits him square in the chest, takes him clean off his feet. | ~34.000 words
Eames is definitely not the good guy here. When you realize what he has done... I'm not sure I could've forgiven him the way Arthur did.
Reading this fic, the style felt really familiar - and then I realized it's the same author who wrote the ST Kirk/Bones fic "Knives in the Water", one of the best AUs in the fandom!
"What the fuck are you doing?" Arthur snaps, yanks the report from Eames's slack, shaking hands.
Eames was staring at a picture that makes the museum look like the inside of a slaughterhouse. Paramedics and officers had stampeded through his blood, smeared it all across the floor after they revived him. It's the first time Arthur's gotten a proper look at the picture, is mildly amazed that all that blood came from him.
"Arthur," Eames starts, voice just as shaky has his hands, his body. His eyes are glassy, wet looking—horrified the way they were the first time he saw Arthur's scarred chest and ran.
