Author's Summary:
Political crisis managers AU. Arthur and Eames are operatives for rival presidential campaigns in a heated Democratic primary.

Review:
Looooved this. Arthur is Dom's political campaign manager for president. Eames is Mal's. All of them end up going on a unity tour together. Shenanigans ensue!

But yes. The fic is a bit silly, but in that utterly readable way that makes you grin and keep on going without thinking it's too ridiculous (because there is a fine line! Or a thick line! Something! But this fic didn't cross said line). It's not really a story with huge depth that'll make you question existence, but if you want to smile a lot and feel generally happy when reading? This is a great fic for that.

Arthur and Eames have a slightly contentious relationship that's basically made of witty banter and Arthur being partly exasperated and partly despairing. It's just so charming and fun. The romance sort of creeps up on you, but it fits.

There are ups and downs to the campaign trail, but you never doubt that everything will end up well. This was just a great read all the way. It grows into more than a little silly fic to a really solid one that is just great to read.

Spin!
