Art: Escape from Toledo [Inception]

[motetus]

My second i_reversebang art prompt, which was claimed by the very excellent bauble, who took on my rough sketch with no hint of any background ideas, and even less in the way of any story ideas, save that at some point Eames should get bent over that lovely motorcycle and fingered, preferably with Arthur leaving his gloves on. What a good thing she and I have similar interests. So, the fic!

Fic Title: Command and Control
Author: bauble
Pairing(s): Arthur/Eames
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 5000
Warnings: Graphic sex, role playing, dominance and submission, dirty talk, violence
Summary: It turns out that Eames finds the combination of Arthur and a life-threatening situation rather arousing.

And a bonus night/Copenhagen/painting theft version! Unfortunately my second author had to drop out, but I'd started the illustration for her story and liked it enough to keep going. I think I'm happier with the style and the faces of the day version, but the background was a lot of fun to do, and I think I learned an important point about colouring skin in a night setting, which is: don't bother trying, go and draw something easier instead.

Fantastic use of exressions (accidentally typed "sexpressions" :D) and lighting in both pieces! I love the mood of the night version and the colouring style in the day one. Beautiful work!

Thank you very much - you've pinpointed the two things I like the most about each picture! And now I have a new word for my vocabulary: sexpressions. It shall be the one I use whenever I've drawn a sex scene where I realise too late that the facial expressions look like they've got a bit of cramp rather than in the throes of ecstasy, yes. :D
