[ The network post starts up with Eames grabbing his device from his nightstand, a good visual of his bedroom and too brightly patterned comforter coming into view. ]

People leave the City all the time - whether or not they come back isn't up to any of us. Sometimes, if they come back, they'll not remember a thing that happened while they were here last. [ It's unclear whether or not Eames is talking to the Network as a whole or to someone else - eitherway, he's headed out the room and down the stairs of the Inception haus. ]

I'd much rather write up a will than a pre-nup. Under what circumstances would we have to split portions of the future business? Are we going to cut Rhada in half when we decide to not longer be friends? I'll have to pay someone to separate our bloody socks.

[ Grump, grump, grump. At least it's more obvious now Eames is, in fact, addressing Yusuf. He turns the device over in his hand, notes it's on, and though the frustration (apparent as a sarcastic patronisation) is apparent on his face he doesn't shut it off. ]

Who knows where to find a good lawyer?

Write up a will.

not yet

I mean I suppose it seems somewhat needless considering we keep coming back

Yeah, but I'd hate for some city official or jerkass to be going through my junk.

so married life huh...

[orangetoughguy]

Not nearly. Yusuf wants terms for our union as friends

[Adds more adjectives to the definition of Eames.]

Why be friends at all, for the matter.

[synanthrope]

There are no more good lawyers.

You could both just give me everything.

[diastereomer]

No one is stopping you from drafting a will- in fact, that bit is probably prudent. All I'm saying is we should have certain assets down in writing.

[ A frown at the other as they head down stairs, to the kitchen most likely. It's always easier to argue over a sandwich. ]

Rhada is not one of them.

That'll keep 16 year olds out of my liquor cabinet.

Haha what. Have you tried "if you really valued our friendship, you wouldn't do this"?

[Well. Look whose face it is.]

Just get new socks.

dim and/or drunk ones yes

Yes but I suspect he considers the value to be an asset all the same

Someone has to be.

What, did you do away with them all?

Duly noted.

Very, very duly.

[synanthrope]

Personally?

[ It's Yusuf knowing where Eames' main target is at this time of day or being a mindreader or just plain following him that they end up in the kitchen together. ]

Don't you think putting it down on paper and making a whole contract out of it is just a sham? There's nothing genuine about it.

[ He waves a hand, that same hand going for a knob of one of the overhead cabinets. ] No romance. No whims. I don't need a piece of paper to tell me that you'll receive a portion of the remainder of my belongings, should something happen. Or that we both do equal shares of work and therefore get equal payouts.

And who's going to pay the gentleman we have to hire to write all of this up?

That's not the point, Carla.

[ Though she does look... better. ]

[boutant]

At least I wouldn't cut Rhada in half.

Whose side are you on, here?

[boutant]

My side. [ :D

You've taught her well. ]

[signatures]

Is that an option?
