Summary
The answering machine was just there for appearances, and yet the blinking number on it was still there, and for some reason James couldn't ignore it. In his solitary life, James never expected to connect with anyone, not at work and especially not with a civilian who was a complete stranger. But Q might be the connection he really needs, in more ways than one.

Summary
Bond has lost his memory. Q has lost his love.
"What have I forgotten?” Bond asked; Q watched him, trying to find the James he knew.
“Nothing that you won’t work out on your own, if it’s really important,” Q said carefully, before returning every fraction of his attention to the computer in front of him.

Summary
(Post Spectre)
A despondent James returns to England alone and finds MI6 in a dire situation, with the Quartermaster at the centre of it.
*
"Remember when I nearly lost my job in my first week because you asked me to make you disappear?” James struggled to hear him through the sounds of the crowd and the muffling of the scarf.
He tilted the corner of his mouth up, “How could I forget?”
Q continued, refusing to face James, “And how I lied to M about the smart blood-” James hummed, keeping his eyes forward- “and how I travelled by plane to personally warn you away from chasing Spectre, only for you to ask me for ‘a final favour’, which nearly got me kidnapped in a ski lift?” James did remember. He remembered hearing from Moneypenny how Q nearly got shot, too. She hadn’t been very happy about that.
“Are you finally cashing in?” he asked, the ball dropping. The theatrics were entirely unnecessary, though.
Q dipped into an alley, and James followed behind him, boxing Q away from the crowd.
“Can I trust you?” Q asked, instead of answering the question. “Can I trust you, like when you asked me to trust you, and I did, undoubtedly?”

Summary
“Is that all you’re going to say?” Bond asks. Q purses his lips, as if in thought.
“They warned me about you,” he says. “What you might do.
“Murder?” Bond asks.
“Seduction.”
“Ah.” Bond leans against the desk, supporting himself with one hand, in a manner that usually lets people know what his intentions are. Q looks him up and down and raises his brows.
“Exhibit A,” Q says, and looks pointedly at Bond’s hips.
“You can’t say it isn’t working,” Bond says.
“No. I can’t.”_________________
Love, in all of it's previous forms, has always screwed Bond over. So when he first kisses Q it's to get away from it, not to fall into it. Bond is, however, not known for his great emotional foresight.

exceeding expectations by hot_damn_louis
Fandoms: James Bond (Craig Movies), James Bond (Movies)
20 Jan 2021
Tags
Summary
From the moment that Q had met Bond, he knew that Bond was going to make assumptions about him. From the spots on his face to the ties that he wore to the way his hair flopped down over his eyes, Bond was going to make assumptions about who he was as a person. He was going to assume that he was young (he was, but that's besides the point), that he was naive, and that he was likely inexperienced sexually and romantically due to his job, his genius level IQ, and his age.
Q loved to exceed expectations.

Summary
“Hi,” Tommy says, smiling at him. Smiling like nothing’s wrong, like Buck hadn't dropped a grenade on their chances of getting back together, like the entire previous day hadn't happened. Smiling in the same clothes he'd been wearing.
“I-I thought you had a shift,” Buck says, and Tommy looks at him funny.
“Not until tomorrow,” he says. “Didn't want to leave without feeding you.”
And Tommy gently taps his stomach with the back of his hand before turning away, and Buck’s entire world shifts on its axis when he gets hit with an intense wave of déjà vu. It's so bad that he worries, once again, that he's having a neurological episode. It intensifies when he sees the spread of food—the same spread of food.
--
Buck goes to sleep after baking banana muffins at Maddie's. He wakes up to a familiar morning after.
