    Summary

    “I don’t want to sleep with you, Madeleine.”

    She gives him a soft laugh. “Good. I don’t want to sleep with you either, Q.” She tilts her head, and Q can see her considering whether to continue. “But James does, and I think it’s mutual.”

    Q finds his place in James and Madeleine’s home, just not the one he expected.

    Summary

    “That’s vindictive of you,” C says. “Once, you could have been in Jacobs’s position.”

    “And having an intelligence agency crash into one's life – that’s exactly what happened to me, isn’t it,” Q says sharply, and then slaps his open palm against his forehead. His damn broken filters again. “My apologies. It’s different coming from this side of the equation now.”

    “You’re on edge today, Quartermaster.”

    Q pulls off his glasses and pinches at the bridge of his nose, and lets his eyes fall close for a moment. “It’s been a rather long week.”

     

    When Bond falls off the radar yet again, Q has to weigh tracing his last movements with concentrating on his own assignment, dealing with a hacker of some renown. Either way, agents keep plotting, the world keeps spinning and Q Branch needs to continue doing what it does best.

    Or does it?

    Summary

    Bond rolls forward, although his usual liquidly graceful movements are stiff from his injuries. Q doesn’t startle, too used to Bond’s antics over months of travelling together, although his breath does hitch when Bond sweeps his fingers under Q's glasses, brushing lightly against the dark bruises Q knows are still there.

    "Think of this as a vacation,” Bond says. “You haven't stopped at all since we left London."

    "A vacation," Q says incredulously. "With the scorching sun and questionable water and unreliable food supplies and a heightened chance of tropical water-borne diseases, and all my equipment sunk in the ocean."

    “With the briny air and an abundance of wild and sea life and limitless possibilities," Bond counters, "without alerts or surveillance or the need to stare at a glowing screen for hours on end.”

     

    (Post-Spectre mission fic, where the mission is to survive being stranded on a desert island, and shutting down Spectre's operations is a critical but secondary objective reserved for after they get off the island.

    But when did MI6's missions ever run according to plan?)

    Summary

    “To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

    Ever since Jeongguk graduated, he has been living through the books he reads and edits and, of course, by his daughter. He doesn't even notice that he has thrown himself into work and that he's not enjoying his life, especially when he finds himself watching his ex-girlfriend getting married in all of his bitterness. However, he didn't expect to meet paramedic Taehyung at the parking lot of the wedding venue with his big boxy smile, ready to show him that there's more in life than Jeongguk thought.
