So, dictionaries keep finding their way into my hands, which I took as a sign. But look at what I've found:

EAMES
Pronunciation (US): i:mz
• EAMES (noun)
1. United States designer noted for an innovative series of chairs (1907-1978)
Familiarity information: EAMES used as a noun is very rare.
Instance hypernyms:
decorator; designer; house decorator; interior decorator; interior designer; room decorator (a person who specializes in designing architectural interiors and their furnishings)

Legitimate entry in a dictionary, and all! However, I want to submit a different meaning, considering my vast, thorough research into the matter:

EAMES [i:mz]
adj. Eamesier, Eamesiest

1. Said of a surly, yet (relatively) stylish, rake with a tendency to get in the good graces of anyone despite all instincts warning towards the contrary. 2. A precarious mix of cynicism, imagination and smarminess. 3. Said of a person with a disposition towards changing their mood from lots of fun to the world is ending and everything is a trap in under two comments.

I propose we push this forward as a City-wide accepted definition. All in favour, say-or-type aye.

[ooc; That first definition is real, I shit you not. (He had it coming.)]

That definition makes me sound like a sixteen year old girl. Or, potentially, manic depressive.

[brobeforehos]

Are you asking me to edit, because I will.

Why isn't there anything about my self sacrificial behavior to save you from sandworms?

[synanthrope]

You forgot to mention his tendency towards kebabs.

[signatures]

Don't enable her.

[brobeforehos]

Because then I'd have to add a subentry about how it was Charlie who brought most of the firepower.

And also, my pan and I had it covered, Eames.

[brobeforehos]

Ah, yes. But the question that brings up is would all the Eames people tend towards kebabs? Or just the Eamesiest?

[brobeforehos]

I enable myself, ta.

[signatures]

Charles may be a walking lighter, but my gun was very large.

[ :c ]

Covered insofar as providing for the camp afterward, yes.

[synanthrope]

Why not?

You should come visit me more, Mr. Eames, and disabuse me of these notions.

[signatures]

You wouldn't know of my propensity for kebabs if it weren't for Saya dropping intel.

[synanthrope]

I leave that up to the definer.

audio;

[brobeforehos]

You know, the first and foremost person who expressed curiousity over the meaning of the word was you. I'm just obliging.

[More cheerful.] As thanks, for having my back so often.

[brobeforehos]

I might thank her.

Do you want a kebab?

[signatures]

My side project may not have enough gusto to power itself, so I might have to come back.

If you'll still have me, anyway.

And because she's made up a definition for me, that's why.

[signatures]

No.

[brobeforehos]

Are you possitive?

[synanthrope]

Would it make you feel better to make up a definition for me?

You're welcome back, of course. I miss you.

[Well. As much as she can miss anyone]

audio;

[signatures]

I had curiousity, not a request for you to make it a standard use-

Now you're trying to twist this into a form of gratitude when we both know better.

[brobeforehos]

I think Eames is a state of mind, so truly culinary tastes should factor very little into it. But, if we aim for authenticity...






What else can you add?

[signatures]

[ No this hospital food is awful ]

Yes.

[synanthrope]

You know he worked for me for a long time, don't you?

audio;

[brobeforehos]

[GASP] Is it possible that I'm getting in your good graces, despite all instincts warning you towards the contrary?

[signatures]

Not really. I'd like to end the 'names used as definitions' trend entirely.

Do you? Or do you miss having your backroom organised?

[brobeforehos]

Because I could procure one for you.
