He's never really touched you though, has he?

A question: How does a point man go through so much information without lifting a finger? You never see him do more than leaf though a notebook. He hardly even glances at the files. So, how does he do it?

The answer: Hard work? Hardly. You could say his final resting place is a little more unique than most. He had a job to do, and nothing was going to stop him from doing it. And in a dream, he's as real as anyone else.

Just because you're dead doesn't mean you can't be the best in the business.



It's funny. Nothing was ever meant to go so wrong so fast. (Mal was never supposed to jump, Cobb should never have been on the run) But life is known for throwing wrenches into everything. Mal jumped. Cobb ran. Arthur followed. What a mess. Still he never planned on getting himself shot looking after what was left, but it happened. Yet he showed up the next day, and the next, and the next. Guess he just doesn't know how to quit.

And he did apologize to Cobb for nearly shocking him into an early grave. Oh, and loosing him the architect. They were leaving anyway.


A Ghost in the PASIV/A Blip on the Wire Connected to the network of the web, everything he knows and does is pulled from there. He works nonstop, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Except.... on the anniversary of his death, he just seems to never hold himself together. It always starts with the bleeding, and gets progressively worse from there. Now, he just disappears for the day, coming back only when things are over.

Suggestions, crit more than welcome.

Everyone knows that Cobbs's first Point died. Two know that that Point was Arthur, and he'll rather keep it that way.

Entry { If >= 1 } I opened a door that was not a door, into a house that was not a house,

For: HG Wells

Proceed:
{ loop parameters x 24: y 18
If ave( x > 3 )
repeat }


Dreams and nightmares all run together after awhile. For the past week, he'd been 'waking' to that

same set of halls that would lead to nothing. Taking different routes invaribly led to similar

results:

An empty room.

A locked door.

Or a ruined house.

And through it all, an unshakeable feeling that he needed to do something in this world that

never changed.

It's been seven nights since it had started, and Arthur was more than a little sick of it.

Whoever said the dead can't dream was an asshole.

Two Roads Diverged in a Yellow Wood

AU and Plotting meme

There are always "what if" questions. We've all had them, that's why so many of us like to RP, to explore possibilities. But even during RP, there are times when you might wonder what could have happened in Character A choose to turn right rather than left, or Character B may have slept in, missing the bus that would have led to a familial reconciliation but meeting their future significant other instead...

Whatever the question, feel free to throw out your idea and see where it goes. This can be for a verse, for a canon point or making up something entirely new. Brainstorm, hammer out details, or even try playing something out. General plotting is perfectly fine too.



There are never any bad ideas.

What's behind the name.

Given the AU this Arthur is from, and how I usually name accounts... why seesitthrough?

1. See and through. That's what ghosts usually are. Translucent.

2. Seeing through a goal, the reason he's still around. And it suits the stubborn.

3. I was going for ambiguity.

Camera Obscura//Fatal Frame Wiki



Developed by Dr. Kunihiko Asou, the Camera Obscura was devised to look beyond the material world and take pictures of impossible things.


In this case, it'll serve as a lens so that one can see things you would normally miss.

Permission wanted (The rumours of my death were greatly exaggerated)

Given that Arthur is a ghost, he has a tendency to want to come out and freak people out. Because he gets bored. Being able to travel the internet doesn't seem to be enough.

So, what is he allowed to do?

1. Do you want you character to find out that he's deceased?

2. Can he spook them? How?

3. If they're familiar with dream share, could he make them doubt reality?

Please answer. It'll make things easier in the long run. Add anything you feel would be relevant too if you wish.
