[ On camera, Eames can be seen sitting, holding a dark brown puppy that looks an awful lot like a pitbull. The puppy occasionally leans forward to bump her nose against the camera lens. ]

Say what you'd like about poor impulse control as I know some of you will, but I was sober when this happened.

[ He shrugs and the puppy yips, annoyed about being moved when he does it. ]

I do still, regrettably, need some help in terms of a name; I never have been good with giving them.

[ Some details are pressing: how people act, how they move, who they know. This is a set of details beyond even his specialties. And sure enough, attached to the video is a rudimentary poll with--true to his accounting--a bizarre set of names. ]

Yes, this is serious.

Guinevere

Cavall

Paddy

I don't care (you're awful, actually).

I think I found my new muse.

[ She’s joking. Mostly. Although if the puppy ever does require a flower crown you know who will volunteer. Clary is also making silly faces at the puppy like it’s a baby. ]

Do I really need to pick one of those names?

[personifications]

I did mention I was rubbish at it.

[ What he's not telling is that two of them are there to secretly needle a certain someone and the other is very uncreatively "inspired" by a brand of whiskey. All-in-all, terrible names. ]

And I'll try my best not to be offended at this usurpation. You have a better idea?

[outofthinair]

You had to be bad at something. I mean, you have a puppy now. Watch the ovaries of every woman in this city explode.

[ Clary grinned as she mimed said explosion. Before she could lose it too much though she cleared her throat. ]

I was thinking something like Rembrandt, but I guess I have artists and French Girls on the brain. Can’t imagine why.

[trashvalkyrie]

i picked guinevere because the other two are nonsense names
shes cute though

girl why u gotta read him like this

[personifications]

They are not. Cavall is popular in...medieval acting circles, so fine, I'll grant that. Paddy, however, is a perfectly respectable whiskey.

I can't believe you.

You picked out the dog, Arthur, what isn't to be believed?

[sentiences]

Cavall is an interesting choice.

[personifications]

I did try to stay on theme, but the thought of whiskey sneaked in and all hope was lost.

Is it a boy or a girl? I feel like that should have some influence on the name, but I like Paddy for either. I don't have much room to say what's a good, or bad dog name anyway.

[ Zingo, for a female dog? It wasn't his choice, but he let it happen. ]

[personifications]

[ John, how could you? But Eames just shrugs, because he knows he's pretty shit at this. ]

A girl. Thus Guinevere, but it's a little mouthy. Difficult to shout in the moment when you need it.

i'm trying to figure out what like, links these choices.
at first i thought it was kind of a king arthur thing but i don't remember a paddy from the films.

[personifications]

You don't remember their trusty alcoholic friend?

I don't either, actually, it's a shame. Would have benefitted from a good pick-me-up once in a while.

I always appreciate some good Arthurian references.

I wish you would tell that to the one who picked her out, it's entirely his fault.

[ sitting near a rather large mastiff ( and by large, think suv sized ), nico watches with mild amusement. ]

I think "Paddy" is cute. I picked that one. Does she like playing with other dogs? Because Mrs. O'leary here could use a playmate.

[personifications]

[ Nico, don't mind him, he just has to blink back dumbfounded for a moment. ]

Darling, I have seen some big dogs, but--

Are you sure that's safe?

[ This is his life now. Actually letting the sentiment and pause of "but is it safe?" come out of his mouth. What in the hell happened? ]

Paddy sounds like a friendlier name.

[personifications]

If I let you in on a secret, you have to promise not to tell.

[ Counterproductive when he doesn't privatize the feed. ]

Everything's friendlier when whiskey is involved.

[ Yes, she's cooing at that precious puppy. ]

"Guinevere" sounds more fitting for the little princess.

[personifications]

[ Coo all you'd like, Karen, that's almost as charming as the puppy is. ]

Well, it was my first thought...

I can't believe Guinevere is losing. That's genius.

As for poor impulse control, look. It's never a bad decision when a dog is involved.

[personifications]

Genius is it? [ Oh, he's certainly banking that for later. ]

And I don't think so either, but there's always going to be at least that one Negative Nancy. I like my bases covered.

[Alex may be the tiniest bit tipsy, and she loves puppies, including her own. So her voice is happy when she just cooes quickly:]

What pretty doge.

[Yep, she definitely says it that way. Doge.]

[personifications]

[ He definitely tilts his head to the side, much like the puppy might, as he hears it. Through context, he obviously knows what she means, but upon trying to parse the word, he's lost. ]

What language is that?

[ It's the best he can come up with. ]
