Tiny excerpt from the New Thing I’m writing:
——
“I just-“ he fiddled with the strings of his jacket. “I mean-“ he sighed. “I’m sorry. About yesterday, I mean.”
“About what, exactly?” There were other people coming in, taking their seats, looking over menus. Arthur looked around at them, pointedly not at Eames.
“For being an asshole. You were offering a hand to help, and I pretty much slapped it away.”
“You’ve always been an asshole, Eames.” Arthur looked at him then, expecting him to be angry. Eames just chuckled quietly.
“I know. But still,” his eyes shone with sincerity, “that time especially, I was a real dick. You didn’t deserve that.” His face grew suddenly serious. “You didn’t deserve any of it.” And Arthur knew he wasn’t talking about only yesterday.
——
I have a title for it, but right now I’m thinking of it as the High School Bully AU. It’s the slowest slow burn I’ve written in a while, maybe ever, lol. They’re not even friends yet. And if the placeholder title wasn’t a giveaway, I am a bit mean to Arthur in parts of this story. Sorry, Arthur, but you’re just entirely too easy to project my own issues onto.
More updates to follow soon. Eventually.

↳username4 Have you seen what this one gossip page posted? Charles being in the likes isn't the thing I'd worry about here

username5 Our girl Y/n is getting promoted from F2 to F1 and I love to see that
↳username6 LMAO it's so funny because it's true 😭
