This week we are reading:

Title: Sock Fancy
Author: swtalmnd
Rating: Explicit
Author's Summary: Arthur gets a mysterious gift subscription to sockfancy.com in the mail, but half of each pair vanishes as soon as he lets them out of his sight.

This fic is one of my favourites! Arthur getting mystery socks in the mail is perfect and when he figures out where they've been disappearing to is absolutely amazing!

Do you think that Eames is the kind of person to send secret gifts? Also, what do you think of this trope in general? There are a few fics that use it and the idea that Arthur and Eames can't just admit their feelings to one another seems to be a favourite. What do you think about it?

Also, if you could get something in the mail from a secret sender, what would you want?
