Dust and Sunlight by mr_quartermaster

Royalty, lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, all the citizens from the kingdom of Vauxhall gathered for their annual Prosperity Feast. But there’s evil lurking in the dark, threatening to steal Queen Olivia’s crown and subjugate the kingdom. Sir Bond, the most loyal protector of the Crown, and Q, one of the most powerful sorcerers in the land will have to join forces to save their kingdom from destruction.

A Game of Chance by @melynen​

My prompt for @00qreversebang

Summary:

James Bond’s return to Six after a two month holiday is merely a continuation of what makes Q’s life more challenging, but it’s not like he hasn’t got practice with dealing with troublesome double-oh agents, meddling friends, and gossiping minions, right?

The first thing M ever said to the new Quartermaster after 007 came back to life was, “For the love of god, whatever you do, do not fall in love with him.”

Unfortunately for Q, she said that in front of his entire branch.

Summary: 

"People are starting to talk," Bond says, "about the young man who prefers the company of the dead in a deserted cemetery than the living, breathing villagers in the tea rooms that Millet prides itself on."

"I thought a gothic mystique fits in quite well with the image of a writer," Q replies. "Or did you have something else in mind when you professed me a poet?"

"I always associate you and your laptop with your office or lab, so – cluttered desk space, dim room lightning with only a single lamp on to illuminate your work, and a mug of tea for company. This—" Bond tilts his head to indicate the cemetery around them "—is a world apart from that environment."

"Is it?" Q smiles. "I find the solitude quite similar."

(When MI6 sends Q to the countryside for his own protection against Spectre's retaliation, it is not so much a short-term undercover assignment as it is a glimpse of an alternate life that Q could have had – just with the additional presence of one meddlesome Double-O agent).

Chapter Three:  Cat’s Nose

Cat’s Nose:  (English):  A cool, northwesterly wind

Cairo went perfectly.

Privately.  Grudgingly. James had to admit he’d never had a mission go so smoothly.  

That wasn’t to say there weren’t the usual unexpected hitches, scrapes, and near-deadly encounters with schools of electronic piranha, but at each turn, Q was there in his ear guiding him in a new direction, supplying an electronic lock code, or hacking in with a well-timed virus to turn the bloody cyberfish against each other.

Only Mallory’s promise of a three-month suspension -- “The rest of the agents acquitted themselves quite well during your recent death.  In a time of crisis, I might add, so I think they can withstand your lengthy suspension now.” -- in addition to the PPO threat had kept James from crushing the earwig under the heel of his mahogany-capped derby brogue the minute he stepped out of Q-Branch.

Once in Cairo … well, he hadn’t made things easy on the Quartermaster.  He’d been cool and remote. Professionalish. But distantly so.  Monosyllabic and brusque, when he could get away with it.  

Okay, so Alec would’ve called him out for being a sullen, difficult arse, and he’d be right.  

You’re such a sodding toddler, James,

he heard Alec say in his head -- the irony that years ago his conscience, what remained of it, had taken on the voice of Alec Trevelyan was not lost on him --  

Suck it up. Do your job.  Listen to the Quartermaster. And stop being such a fucking wanker!
