[ When Arthur sees this post, he feels like an entire bathtub of ice has been upended on his head. It goes through his veins and he swears his hands shake as he holds the communication device.
But wait. No. That shouldn't be how he feels. They finished inception, the Fischer job. Fischer-Morrow dissolved in the days after, he'd seen it on the news. Cobb should be with his kids in California again–
he's here instead. No James, no Philippa. Arthur's never been prone to bouts of anger but he wants to shoot something. Someone. Preferably COST, for hiring on a man who should rightfully be with his family. ]
That might've worked on Fischer, Dom, but a second time is going to be a shot in the dark.
As far as I know, there's no changing the screen name. Would've picked something a little less... literal, if it were up to me.
@CORNONTHE I don't need to answer your first question. The second? Perhaps there is, but we don't know it and probably never will; amusing usernames have been a constant since this unit started.
[ Doesn't take a genius to figure out who this is. Cobb actually smiles, even if it's a Cobb smile, which makes him look more concerned than anything. ]
It worked as well as it needed to. I found you, didn't I?
[ that is the weirdest mental image he has ever had in his entire fucking life, wow. Congrats, Travis, you're the first person in Paris to earn a Cobb squint. ]
Only if said critically acclaimed film leads to complete strangers insinuating (voluntarily or not) something about me that I normally don't go around advertising.
[ yeah he stopped giving a shit after a while. everyone's already seen it and either most didn't seem to know the meaning behind it or were too polite to say anything. seeing as there's no way to change it so far, he can only gripe about it every now and again. The only reason he still would want it changed at all now is for professional and image-related reasons. ]
Too long, no matter how you cut it. Perhaps a month for me as far as I can recall.
My partner was dubbed 'maximumtiger,' a play on the meaning of his name. 'Minimalcat' is not a play on my name but shows they know quite a bit about myself, because I have often been accused of being catlike. The minimal part? They just wanted us to match. It's almost cute of them.

No.
If you find out, let me know. My name is Jon Snow.

My theory is that there is a lick of accuracy in our usernames. Something that rings true, no matter how small or thinly stretched that truth may be.
[ She can only imagine what this particular truth is, though. ]
As far as I can tell, it cannot be changed. Perhaps if you raised the issue with our so-called leaders there is something they could do.

It worked as well as it needed to. I found you, didn't I?

I don't suppose yours is because of your love for Bruce Lee movies?

What about yours?

All of them have a lick of truth--so yours, then, is....?
no subject
Yours, however, strikes me as deeply amusing.

[ He pretty much just volunteered the fact, though, and Cobb's got to wonder if that's just carelessness or not giving a shit. Probably the latter. ]
How long has this been going? More accurately, how long have you been in Paris?
no subject
[ It absolutely is, and Cobb is grateful he's able to just shittalk with is friend at this point, honestly. ]
Where are you? We should touch base.
