The only thing more cathartic than drawing, in Ariadne's experience, was shooting at things. And after the week she'd had, she needed to shoot some things.

She'd gone into this assignment, bright-eyed and ready to bring down the bad guys. They'd assembled her identity, using her own background in design to get her an in with their cooperative witness, Miles.

But Ariadne hadn't counted on enjoying the dream sharing as much as she had - not after three years of being repulsed by the very idea of it. Nor had she counted on liking the team - Cobb, charismatic but broken; Eames, oozing charm from every pore; Yusuf, a bit absent-minded but genuinely kind; Arthur, always in control but barely concealing something wild and dark.

And now she'd just found out her job wasn't done. Her assignment was going to continue - Cobb and the others, they'd realized, weren't the kingpins they had originally thought. Ariadne was a little relieved, but now they were expecting her to keep her cover, try to get as much information from them as she could. For how long, she didn't know.

The thought made her nervous. So she did the only thing that could help relieve some of her tension - she went to the shooting range. She was intent on the paper target in front of her, putting bullet holes right in the center of the chest.

"He's a recluse. He orders take-out and doesn't cook. The only places he goes is work, his house, and an out of the way coffee shop."

"Sure." He made a note of it in his notebook.

"He does all his banking electronically, but it's all encrypted. I'm still trying to get through it."

"Good. Then I get started on getting you some new identities." He'd need to call up Eames for that.

"Well, yes. New names, passports, birth certificates. You'll also need to set up some off-shore accounts for the money you'll earn." He opened his notebook and started jotting things down.

Arthur huffed out a laugh.

"How do you feel about posing as a married couple?" He asked, looking up from his notebook. "It'd be easier to travel around."

He nodded and wrote down a few more things. "Good." Arthur shut his notebook and set it down on the table. "So, dinner?"

"Here," Arthur grabbed the room service menu off the coffee table and handed it to her. "The phone's in the bedroom. Go ahead and order whatever you want."

"Whatever you're having," he said a little distractedly as he focused on something on his laptop.

"Emailing a few of my contacts. It's nothing that has to do with you," he assured her.
