Summary
In retrospect, it probably didn't help that the first time Charles met Erik Lehnsherr, the man was up a ladder in well-worn, close-fitting jeans. Modern!nonpowered!AU where they all work in the theatre, Shaw is still a bastard, and Charles is doing his best to get this damn show open with his sanity (relatively) intact.

Summary
The boys are investigating reports of spontaneous amnesia, but before they can figure out what's going on, Castiel himself falls victim. And a blank-slate, baggage-less, amnesiac Cas would rather go clubbing than help solve the case. Meanwhile, Dean falls head-over-heels in love with the Manic Pixie Dream Girl he never knew he needed and Sam can't seem to convince him that he's under a spell. (Sam struggles to keep Cas and Dean from banging complete strangers while they're not in their right minds. No icky consent issues, I promise, and I swear it will all work out before it's over.)
[Rated "Explicit" only for the final chapters. The story is pretty gen up until the end so if you read for plot (?) you can bail before the finale and it'll still be a full story. Note that the chapter count is artificially high as I chose to start a new chapter for each POV switch. Some chapters are subsequently very short.]

Bookmarker's Notes
Amazing Darcy and Jane. Lots and lots of team love from back in the golden days when we were all still so innocent in this fandom. Amazing romance. Very hot sex. Plotted extremely well. Annoying tense issues and typos, correcting madly as I read.

Summary
It’s different; beyond the giving and receiving of an orgasm, it shouldn’t work, and yet he finds himself coming back again and again, folding himself into the impossibility of Q’s limbs and breathing in the ever present scent of bergamot and ozone that clings to the surprising warmth of Q’s body. It isn’t the same, but it suits him, and he craves it, this more precise geometry.

Summary
She sits down at her chair, coffee in one hand, folded paper in the other. She is just taking a sip when she opens the paper...and promptly spits her coffee back into the cup.
The paper reads:
James Bond
That can’t be right. It’s impossible. It has to be.
Right?

if I couldn't be strong by SailorChibi

Summary
But this? There was no excusing this as anything other than what it was. Pathetic longing, and a need to be close to Bond to comfort himself. Q couldn't even pretend that he was visiting Bond to keep the man company. No, this was about Q and the fact that the majority of his nightmares lately had featured an empty hospital bed and another trip to the local cemetery.
"You need to wake up, you sodding prick," he said to Bond, not bothering to lower his voice. The only other sound in the room was the beep of the heart monitor. "I can destroy these people very easily, but I don't want to hear you whining about having missed out on the action later on."

In which Bond is a retired naval commander with too much house, Q is a mechanical engineer with too many sisters, and they have lengthy conversations about decorum, bonnet-ribbons and philosophy in Regency England.
~
“I just thought you might go pay a visit," his mother suggested.
“Me?” Q asked, aghast. “Pay a visit?”
“He must be starved for proper gentleman company, now that he’s settled in so far from London--”
“I am far from proper gentleman company.”
“--and perhaps if you befriended him he could introduce you to some nice heiresses.”
“Heiresses?” Q repeated, baffled and horrified. “What in the world would I do with heiresses?”
