James Bond who is devastated that Q had to survive a kidnapping attempt while he was gone. James Bond who fusses around his lover, bringing him little gifts and trinkets as Q's eyebrow starts to arch higher and higher. James Bond who finally gets Q alone and traces every line of his quartermaster's new scars with his tongue.

I had a blast working together with @fictivecircle for the @bbcmerlin-reversebang! These two pieces were so fun to make and I hope I made justice to their amazing fic. There's another one that is only in there, partially because I didn't want to post it twice and also as a incentive to get anyone interested to go check it out, so... here it is!

What serpent heart did ever dragon seek (38.515 words) by fictified and me!

Summary:

"“Don’t come closer,” Merlin begs, throwing an arm out, and that– the hand attached to that arm is what halts Arthur in his place.

It's blood-drenched from whatever lifesaving measures he might have attempted, but more importantly, where the back of it had been pale and smooth the last time Arthur had looked, it is now covered in what look like dragon scales."

#honestly the swag he has in this scene is obscenely attractive to me#like embarrassingly so#luckily he fucks up almost immediately afterwards#so balance and harmony are restored in my heart#by watching him hang off a light fitting and then arse-plant on a sofa like a twat#thus removing the need for me to furiously scribble 'mrs bishy bond' surrounded by little hearts in my notebook in a very unbecoming manner#phew#close one

[bishybarnaby]

#so true bishy#except it doesn't help me#because i love him when he's being competent and swagtastic#but i also love him when he's being a cringefail disaster#both are so endearing and alluring to me#a pickle!!#james bond

"Most people who behave in a macho way, it's bluster. Most of the time we're all bullshitting our way through life. There are strong people on this planet, but it's all the swan technique: it looks beautiful on top and the legs are going like this, underneath, you know? Someone like Bond, it's 90 per cent confidence." - Daniel Craig

Five fics to get to know me.

I've written a lot of Bond fics, so instead of putting them all in a masterlist to pin to my blog, here are the five I think are a good starting point. For the rest, you can check out my works on AO3.

the places you leave in the dust

A Spectre fix-it exploring Q and Bond's friendship before Bond left at the end of the film, Q's recovery from both a broken heart and professional problems, and his reckoning with Bond's return.

i get down when she gets you high

In which Q is ordered to monitor the more intimate parts of Bond's missions, no matter the cost. He and Bond grow closer as a result.

dispatches from the division

A cast of Double-0s observe the development of Bond and Q's relationship. Some even learn a few things about themselves along the way.

talk / listen

Bond finds out about a raunchy app on Q's phone. He aims to teach Q the value of a more personalised experience, and so begins Q's love affair with Bond's voice.

the age of change

At a crucial moment in Q and Bond's developing relationship, a shock arrives to blow it all apart. Q doesn't think he has it in him to face what he must face, but life happens anyway. Note: unfinished at the time of posting this list.
