My Personal 00Q Hell

After staying up for 48 hours straight handling a difficult mission, Q is always sleepy for days afterwards, and very cuddly. He’ll curl up on Bond’s lap when he’s reading the morning paper, sunbathe with his cats on the living room floor, make himself a nest in the bedsheets…once Mallory called him in before his rest days were up and Q fell asleep on his shoulder.

Q is addicted to phone games. He takes pride in the fact that he has the highest candy crush score of everyone on his friends list. The day Bond beat his 1010 score (he was staking out an arms dealer in Japan and got bored) he tested explosives for the entire day and no one dared go near him. His phone storage is filled with pictures of his neko atsume cats (all named after famous scientists of course).

Whenever Q brings his cats to work with him he likes to dress them up in little outfits that match his own. Him and Bond (the latter unwillingly) send out holiday cards in which all four of them are dressed in the same atrocious jumper that Q’s picked out. The cards always stay on everyone’s desks for months afterwards.

As the Chief of Staff, Tanner has the best gossip on everyone at MI6. On slow days, he’ll come into Q-branch with a mug of tea and complain about all the ridiculous arguments he’s had to resolve that day. Moneypenny occasionally joins them (and keeps a mental list of everything Tanner says, for blackmail at a later date)

Headcannon # 2: Bond is good with kids.
