A quick one before bed

[eumelia]

If I read one more Inception fic in which the author gives Eames the first name "Jack" I may be forced to say something. And a vein in my head may burst.
Depends.

Dudes! If your first name is "Jack", you do not go by your last name.

Seriously, it's that simple!

Petty reader is petty.

And there really is hardly any love for Ariadne... *sigh*

Drama school :)

I don't know about Tom Hardy, but Eames' accent isn't regional - it's pure RP (Received Pronunciation). There's three ways (other than working hard to deliberately acquire it) you can get that accent in this century: by growing up among the English aristocracy; at a really expensive public school; or at Oxford or Cambridge university. Eames doesn't come across as an aristo so my money would be on Oxbridge. Or on drama school (I do mean that - Eames is essentially an actor by profession).

Drama school, so simple! Hehe

I just read somewhere that Nolan said that Eames is the son of old money and I'm choosing to ignore that, because damn that man may be slumming but he is no AristoCat.

Thank you for the clarification on the accent, I was racking my brains trying to figure out where Eames was from!
