Getting on a jet plane

[loadedparadox]

What: Leaving for Vegas
Who: With dreamsofmazes and eamesofdreams
Warnings: None currently


Arthur had taken a lot of time preparing that morning. Shaving carefully, taking his time so it was perfect. Hair slicked back. His suit steamed and smooth as he slid into it, preparing for the trip as he tied his tie perfectly. Shoes polished, taking a moment to brush them down one last time.

Taking the time to ensure he had everything just so in his carry on bag, he wheeled it out into the living room. The pets were at the kennel, everything else was packed and with the movers, and now they just had the flight back to the States, to Vegas.

Dressed impeccably in a midnight black suit with faint pinstriping and matching onyx shirt with the same color tie, he took a deep breath, calming himself.

"Ariadne? Eames? We ready?"

"Thank you dear." Her nose crinkled, an appreciative smile sent Eames way, when she spoke.

"Arthur." She spoke, pausing mid stride to squeeze his hand. "This will be good for us." Glancing between the two men, she smiled wider. "It's all of us now. What is that saying? All for one, and one for all?" She teased, a quick giggle of her brow. Attempting to show, she would be fine. "Let's go."

[plagiary]

He huffs out a breath of a laugh at that, leaning against the door, keeping his gaze trained on them both.

"We're not Muskateers. Nobody has a questionable mustache."

"Fall asleep on the plane and that could be arranged," Arthur said, hand dipping into his jacket and pulling out the pen Eames had returned to him. "Though Ariadne might be saved because of her pert nose," he teased, heading out the door.

When they get to the street there's a car waiting to take them to the airport.

Sliding into the car, she sighed. Eyes trained on the outside, smiling fondly. Only to turn looking between the two men, a smirk on her face. "Who says I wont do it to you both. Draw that it? I'm rather talented with a pen." She said, with a smirk and light tone. Before focusing her attention back out the window.

[plagiary]

"Who would have thought I'd be the most mature in this car right now?" Eames muses thoughtfully, grinning at them both, "Maybe I'll tell security the pen is a deadly weapon."

Settling in, he worked to keep his apprehension in check. Not just about Cobol and Nash, but in returning to Vegas at all. "You wouldn't dare. Not and cause me to lose it twice in a lifetime," he teased, smirking slightly. "And I'm going to behave now because I don't trust Ariadne. Also, must take caffeine pills and not sleep.

[dreamsofmazes.livejournal.com]

A mock hurt face fell over her. Letting her eyes glance between the others again. "How can anyone, not trust me?" She said, her voice as light as it could.

"Honestly, I'm the one, that's never been to Vegas. How do I know, you all won't just expose me to the most unspeakable things." She asked, a smirk to her face, her brows giving a quick wiggle. "You hit on the attendants on the flight by the way. Do think I won't throw peanuts." She teased, a quick roll of her eyes as she focused out the window again.

[plagiary]

Eames just snorts, smothering up his laughter with the palm of his hand and leans against the window, looking out.

"We know just what you're like, Ariadne. You'll have a tough time pulling the wool over our eyes."

[loadedparadox.livejournal.com]

Arthur didn't even try and hide his laugh. "Oh we know you, Baby. We know you well. We may look the criminal type but you are most certainly the deadly one in this car," he said, looking over at her with a wicked smile.

"As for unspeakable acts, we wouldn't need to be in Vegas for that, would we," he asked, tone soft, sly, not quite looking at either of them. "As for hitting on anyone that isn't currently in this vehicle... Well, I for one don't have the energy for it. You two do a job of wearing me out,' he said, tones normal but his look teasing.

[dreamsofmazes.livejournal.com]

A proud look feel over Ariadne's face, as she rolled her eyes, focusing on the landmarks passing by. "Well just do keep it in mind, I didn't wear heels for nothing." Her tone a matter a fact, not drawing her attention to the two.

"One day." She paused, glancing back over to the men. "I will see what unspeakable acts we can accomplish on a car ride." She stated, a brow raised, and a sly smile on her face.

"And as for the energy part. You need to learn to build that up, if you plan on handling us both." she finished, a faint laugh to her tone, before turning back to the window. Not wanting to show her amusement in this all.

[plagiary]

He does nothing to hide his laughter at that, practically radiating from amusement, "Yes Arthur, do what our darling Ariadne says if you want to keep up."

[loadedparadox.livejournal.com]

Arthur was quiet a moment, considering their words. He leaned back, looking out the window. "No worries. I'll always keep up," he murmured, fingers tracing over the crease on his trousers

[dreamsofmazes.livejournal.com]

There was a quick giggle that escaped her, when the others responded to her. Only to shake her head, a smirk playing on her lips. "We'll test that theory out. Many a times." She hummed, her thoughts going back onto to Paris as she watched it pass, till they were arriving at the airport.

[plagiary]

He holds the door open for her, watching the pair of them quietly because he knows this is bad, they have to leave for a reason and he has nothing to say that would be helpful.

"I had no way of having the flight vetted," Arthur admitted softly, guiding the way after he slid out of the car. "I did get a look at the flight crew and it is all clear. I looked over the flight manifest as of two days ago and no names popped out. We're going to have to assume that normal TSA precautions will be enough."

Speaking technically, serious as he walked through the airport. "I already arranged through on the other side for hardware, Eames, so no worries there. If needed," he added, glancing at Ariadne and smiling. "Sorry. I don't fly without preflight work."

[dreamsofmazes.livejournal.com]

"Alrighty." She whispered, her heels clicking against the floor, as she followed the pair along, her brow arching, unsure what else to say, to either of the two.

"I trust you both." She hummed, sliding up next to Eames, linking her arm into the side of him. A faint smile playing on her lips, as she sighed, knowing she was really leaving.

[plagiary]

Eames offers her a small fond smile, patting her arm before speaking, "There's our man, Ariadne. How did we end up with someone so clever, hm? Thank you, Arthur darling."

[loadedparadox.livejournal.com]

He gave Eames a look. "I'm working on changing, but I will always be a pointman. Especially considering what we're dealing with. "I also note we're in first class, the seats are together and at the back of the cabin. Affording the most safety and privacy."

[dreamsofmazes.livejournal.com]

"Arthur. We love you like this. You know that. Please never try to change." She said, a smile on her lips. Glancing between the two me, she flashed a sly smile. "Do tell me, I'm in the middle?"

[plagiary]

"I thought we were all aware that Arthur's ability as a pointman gets my pulse racing," he teases, blowing the other man a kiss as they walk, "We're going to get kicked off the plane at this rate. Ari at least make sure my mustache is brilliant."

[loadedparadox.livejournal.com]

"I will always stand by your pulse raced less because of my work and more that you could cause me to go from calm to severely irritated in less than two seconds," he noted, laying his back on the conveyor to go through security.

"As for your seat, Baby, you can sit anywhere you want, though I suppose I should get used to my wife hanging all over another man. Not that I can entirely blame her," he said, giving her a wink as he handed over his papers to get through security. For his part he was trying. Trying to keep them both in high spirits, especially Ariadne for whom this was a reminder of what had happened, but for himself as well. Nothing in Vegas could hurt him. Not now.

[dreamsofmazes.livejournal.com]

She snorted amused, as she handed over her things to security. A bright smile showing on her face, as she was fully aware, there were some employees ease dropping on their conversation. And knowing she would have a little fun with that. "Oh the things they do to me." She hummed, a bit louder, so most around her could here. A sly smile spreading on her face, as she made her way through security.

[plagiary]

Eames laughs before falling silent because he has a strict kind of hatred towards security staff despite not carrying anything incrimidating on him. Chalk it up to years of being on the run through places like this.

One of the staff gives them a funny look and Eames just grins, moving up to Arthur to squeeze him round the waste briefly before letting go, moving away, "Your girlfriend's going to get us into trouble, darling."

[loadedparadox.livejournal.com]

Arthur very nearly facepalmed. They were going to be the end of him, and he was going to love it. Every moment of it.

Leaning back against Eames, he realized how much he had changed with him that he reacted that way. Or said what he did. "Oh no. IN these moments she's your girlfriend, Sweetheart."

Yep. They kept this up and they weren't getting let on the flight.

[dreamsofmazes.livejournal.com]

"Or lord you two." She snickered, slipping her heels back on. "You both just have to realize. I have two men in my life, who I plan on making speechless. Many a times over."

A quick look up at both of them, she smirked, glancing around a moment. Before quickly leaning up, and placing a chaste kiss on each of them. "Your girlfriend wants coffee before the flight." She teased, spinning on balls of her feet, making her way to the coffee shop.
