I also have a few fics on AO3 under this same username.

There’s a fantastic post by @castillon02 about how French dressing that Bond enjoys in the book version of Casino Royale is a different thing in the UK than in the US, and it made me think about the word association scene in Skyfall. Namely, the bit where Bond is asked the word “Agent?” and he replies with “Provocateur”.

Now, that sounds perfectly neat and espionage-y, but Agent Provocateur is also the name of a fairly famous UK brand that does bras.

So for the UK audience this reply from Bond has a double meaning that goes really well with what Bond is trying to do in this scene: show off how unpleasant and empty he can be, because that’s his state of mind at that point. He’s depressed, tired and angry and wants people to be fed up with him. There’s something vaguely (and intentionally) sexualised and cheeky/disrespectful about this answer, which is precisely why Bond went for it. You know, to show “Oh, look how annoying I am.”

For @10kiaoi​, who is the true #1 of evil, has the most beautiful of artworks and a fun way of making you want to cry:

And then they were roommates (Q’s cuddling a stuffed lion): link

I couldn’t commit to a long drawing today, but I certainly couldn’t miss Classic Bond day! I watched almost every Bond movie in six months, and besides the first four Sean Connery movies and OHMSS, Dalton’s short run as Bond was my favorite of the classic Bond experiences.
