    Of Cats and Mortgages by

    Fandoms: Skyfall (2012) - Fandom, James Bond (Craig Movies)

    Summary

    “He did my job for me, killing his master,” Bond said. “He got around his feet and tripped him down a flight of stairs. Leaving him to get blown up with the rest of them seemed a churlish way to repay him.”

    The cat chirruped agreeably, and washed a paw. Despite being brought from south Ireland in a bag, the feline looked well-cared for.

    “You brought me a cat. A murder cat, owned by your villain du jour.”

    In which Q is brought offerings of murder cats, keeps losing his pens to a certain kleptomaniacal agent, and is generally oblivious to/confused by Bond's attempts at catching his attention.

    Successful Intimidation and Excessive Sarcasm by

    Fandoms: Skyfall (2012) - Fandom, Sherlock (TV)

    Summary

    Everyone in MI6 is terrified of Mycroft Holmes. To be anything else is be to be foolhardy and overconfident, two characteristics that mark a poor agent and will invariably lead to an early grave. Mycroft Holmes possesses more power than the entire rest of Great Britain put together and has a condescending smile that speaks of an ability to use said power for very nefarious purposes. No one in his or her right mind is willing to go within ten feet of him, lest they somehow incur his wrath.

    Except, of course, Q, who is most certainly not afraid and instead exchanges quips and insults as though he's not ten seconds away from being killed by the man no one seems to know is his brother. Mycroft is exasperated, Bond is intrigued (read: attracted) and Q is just so done with everyone in this building.

    Summary

    "Most people just pick whatever flower they think is prettiest. It doesn’t require a lot of input from me.”

    The man walks up to Q, leaning against the counter between them. “Well then, what can I do to get your input?”

     (In which Q runs a flower shop, and his newest regular is almost definitely a spy.)
