Summary
James Bond has been around a long time. A LONG time. But you can blame that on the woman with a thousand faces - they all have one theme, she says.
"Beautiful, beloved. And dead."

Summary
The human mind isn't necessarily the delicate instrument that it's made out to be. Sometimes the weight of experience, of memory, is like a blunt object, smashing through anything that gets in the way. Eames learns this the hard way when a run of the mill extraction job leaves him in possession of a secret that he doesn't even know he knows.
Someone out there is willing to resort to desperate measures to get at it- and when Eames is poisoned and kept hostage in the warren of his own limbo, Arthur and Ariadne have to go in after him to find out what he knows before it's too late.

Summary
Q, on the other hand, is having significantly less trouble with coming to terms as to how he currently has a slightly drunk double-oh agent standing in his flat at arse-o’-clock in the morning. Without waiting for a reply, Q starts the vacuum up again and starts to clean the patch of carpet next to Bond’s feet. The vacuum nozzle bumps against Bond’s patent leather shoes a few times and Q grunts, a clear sign that Bond should move.
Bond moves.
(or, that fic where Q has insomnia and Bond tries to be helpful)

Bookmarker's Notes
“So. Pictures books and Mario Kart?”
Q is making lunch in the kitchen when Bond saunters in like he owns the place, making a sudden reappearance in fresh clothes after disappearing around one in the afternoon. Given the amount of time Bond is spending here, Q thinks he really should consider asking Bond to chip in for rent.
“I’d ask you if you’d like some salad, but I was under the impression that you only eat the flesh of your dead enemies.” A few cherry tomatoes goes into the bowl and Q starts slicing up a carrot, blatantly ignoring the question from before. It’s not as if the both of them haven’t already figured out the actual answer by now, as horrific as it may be. God, he must have been a mass murderer in his past life to deserve this.
“Grilled dictator tastes superb,” Bond says dryly, wandering over to the kitchen counter. Q resists the urge to smack Bond’s hand when Bond reaches into the salad bowl to pick out a tomato. “You should try it some time.”

Fixing Spectre by JayPendragon

14 Mar 2016
Summary
Part I: Twenty-one days after the Double-oh programme is reinstated, James Bond returns to MI6 with his Aston Martin and without Dr Swann. This is only the beginning of Q's problems.
COMPLETE.Part II: The merger of MI6 and MI5 is complete and everyone around M seems to be losing their minds. (M-centric piece for merlenhiver.)
COMPLETE.Part III: Prompt fill for the 00Q Prompt Party, minion-centric.
COMPLETE.Part IV: The Great Interdepartmental Prank War of 2016®. Because Q insists on a Q-centric piece and mayhem follows James wherever he goes. Also, we all want Farid and Hayden to have more screen time, don't we?

Summary
No matter what James says with the both of them squeezed into a too small bed in the attic of the local B&B, Q is convinced he hates the domesticity of lying around all morning listening to the birds sing out of tune with one another while Q smokes three cigarettes end to end out of the window like it’s an art form.

Summary
“How does that lead to…?” Eve waves her hand at the mess behind Q’s back.
Q feels his expression morph into a sly grin. “I have a new plan. I’m going to stay on these dating platforms, but I’m going to treat them as databases. Rather than waiting for an algorithm to set me up, I'm going to try reverse-engineering this entire system.”In which Q works in the private sector, still winds up friends with Eve, and applies science to his love life. Obviously, Eve gets involved.

Summary
Eames keeps forging. It's starting to be a problem.
Bookmarked by sagemb
27 Dec 2016
Bookmarker's Notes
He makes them uncomfortable. He’s breaking their hearts. He doesn’t care: he is worn out caring. He’s exhausted by it. He stands up and pushes his spindly little chair back with a grating sound across the cobblestones and he tastes espresso on his tongue, in his mouth, and it’s so narrow, so damnably fucking limiting, this reality, where he’s only himself, where the dead are always dead, and he doesn’t understand why they can’t see that, why Yusuf can’t see that colors are brighter and more vivid through someone else’s eyes, why Ariadne can’t understand the joy of recreation down to the most mundane detail, why Saito can’t understand spending all your time and effort to such limited purposes in pursuit of excellence, why Dom can’t fucking understand grief and guilt all of a sudden. They spend their lives in worlds that spiral up and down and turn in on themselves, mazes that they fill with their own minotaurs, and all Eames wants is to get lost in one. The least they could do is let him.

Summary
If Bond wants a shoehorn that can also pick locks, it's Q's job to give it to him. (Well, actually it's not, but for some reason he keeps getting talked into it anyway. Also, he's been making a genuinely excessive number of things that explode.)

Summary
Arthur, covert agent, has his cover blown during a job hunting down an underground criminal ring. With a price on his head, Arthur's boss has no choice but to hide Arthur away under a new identity... which just happens to be that of a teenage boy at a boarding school. Now he's forced to play the part of a sixteen year old and deal with classes, a roommate, and bullies-- not to mention the fact that he still doesn't know how his picture ended up in the hands of his enemies. It isn't all bad though. At least he has an extremely attractive teacher named Eames.

Summary
Arthur's entire career and modus operandi can be simplified into a single, representative problem — two points, A and B, identified and labeled clearly on a grid of as-of-yet indiscernible size, filled with indiscernible pit stops and potholes and sometimes deadly drops straight down into nothing. His job is to figure out the most efficient way to get from Point A to Point B with the optimal number of surprises, injuries, and sometimes deaths.
(Hint: The optimal number is 0.)
(or: Arthur can't figure Eames out, but whose fault is that?)

Summary
Eames seems to have stolen something from a gentleman with much more powerful associates than he’d anticipated, and out of all of his friends, he knows that Arthur (who, no matter what everyone thinks, is absolutely not retired) has the most comfortable sofa.

Bookmarker's Notes
“You have to admit it’s rather funny, you putting the PASIV in the closet so your boyfriend won’t find out who you really are.”
“Go fuck yourself.” In an objective sort of way, Arthur realizes, it is kind of funny. But that doesn’t mean he’s obligated to laugh.
