Notes
Great con/heist set ups. Progression of dream technology & techniques especially in Eames' forging. Ariadne/Saito that's realistic.

Notes
The con is fabulous and long and gritty.
For days, now, they've been binding this into her dreams. Woven into the sky, tangled up with the clouds and the sun's glare, they've hidden in her mind awful, awful things that scare her even to look at out of the corner of her eye.
...
They mixed it together, seasoned it with voices at the edge of hearing, stripped bare every raw nerve, and left nowhere to hide.
And if sharing a dream is like having unprotected sex with someone, then Ariadne is Patient Zero with a vengeance. The moment Browning tied his mind to hers, he let this in, and now it won't let him out.
Ariadne is protected from it, just barely. She's not protected from the knowledge of what she's doing, but that, like the trembling architecture, seems only fair.
