#eames living in mombasa screams 'i was warm once on vacation as a child and can't let that feeling go'

Who’s mr furnace and who’s mr icicle man in the arthur and eames equation?

I love them being played out as both (love me some icicle feet Arthur) but I'm gonna say Eames is the human icicle and Arthur is the furnace. Who chose to live in a warm climate? Eames. I am endlessly amused by the idea of Eames and Arthur arguing about the thermostat settings. They own an electric blanket for their bed and only Eames side gets any use. Arthur bitches lovingly tolerates Eames' cold ass fingers and cold ass feet leeching his warmth at any given time. He makes Eames warm up his hands before his fingers go anywhere near his you-know-what.

Arthur has a metabolism like a goddamn road runner, this dude is always running warm. Arthur hates it. Eames loves it.

Once Arthur asked Eames why his temperature regulation sucks ass and Eames paused and said very solemnly---so solemnly that Arthur worriedly thought he was going to say he has cancer or something--- but all he says is: "I have... bad circulation."

Arthur builds him a sauna in their winter home. He tolerates the extra hot shared showers, and the doonas/duvets/covers that pile up on their bed(s). In compensation he demands at least a few months a year in their winter home which is only fair, relationships are about compromise after all. But he makes sure to pack all the beanies, gloves and scarves and luckily is very well versed at keeping his partner warm at night.
