Vampire AUs are sadly lacking in this fandom, but that was fantastic! (Also thank you for getting that mention of Moneypenny in there, I wasn't sure if it'd work, but thank you for making it!) Would you be able to do a follow up at some point in the future, maybe Bond and Q hunting for prey together at night? Thank you again! I adore all your writing, it always hits the mark just right!
(Also: “That was a great 00Q Vampire AU! Would you mind writing a follow up, maybe Q and Bond going out on a full moon night together?”
“Loving Vampire!Q, would you write anything more in that ‘verse?”
“pleaaaase I nees more vampire!Q werewolf!Bond")
Mmh this is too much fun. And glad the little bit of Moneypenny was enough, I feared you’d be disappointed anon.
“Are you sure that will end well?”, Q asked as he leant against the doorframe, watching James strip.
It was a sight he was used to by now, because typically for a werewolf they liked to walk around naked much to anyone’s horror, because how was Q supposed to work from home when he had a naked James sprawled out over him possessively?
Ah, the possessiveness of a werewolf over his mate. It didn’t matter if the mate was older and in certain aspects stronger than the werewolf, in James’ eyes he was a damsel in distress which needed to be saved and protected from any kind of threat.
A bird for example, Q would never let that one down.
Q rolled his eyes, feeling the urge to shake James and make him realise that they were enemies despise their bond and that James’ instinct would be to tear Q apart and feast on his flesh. But he didn’t, because it would be full moon in approximately ten minutes, and he didn’t want their flat to be destroyed by a handful of monstrous and furry wolf.
“Let me think about it James…”, Q made a mocking pause, titling his head as if he had to think about it, “You’re a werewolf, I’m a vampire.”
“And Moneypenny is a Succubus”, James added with a smirk, and Q groaned in annoyance.
He rubbed his eyes, glasses laying somewhere on their bedside-table. Q didn’t need to sleep but James did, and he liked to ponder for a few hours in silence with the werewolf’s breath brushing his neck, and his arms tightly around him.
“Look, I trust you. I wouldn’t have allowed you to scent-mark me every evening otherwise. But I’d rather not be torn into pieces”, Q sighed, “I’d survive it, sure, but you have no idea how tedious and painful it is to put yourself together again.”
James looked up, fingers unbuttoning his shirt and with one movement of his shoulders it fell down onto the pile of clothes, a jacket, trousers, shoes, a tie. The werewolf only wore his pants, and they’d come off soon enough.
“I could stich you back together.”
“Oh god no. You can’t even stich your own wounds and they heal faster than a human’s.”
Pressing a hand to his chest, James made a face as if he had been hit by someone. “Ow, that hurts.”
Q rolled his eyes and pushed himself off the doorframe, making his way to the entrance door. Seven minutes left, five until James would start turning. Meaning that he soon would get some blood, he felt like he was starving.
He was sure his eyes were red, and as he licked his lips he could feel his fang-like teeth slowly break through the normal.
James threw him a concerned glance, but Q just shrugged. Tonight they’d go hunting together for the first time, and as exited Q was he was also nervous, an understandable feeling. He would be together with a bloodthirsty werewolf who might or might not attack Q in the hours ahead of them.
Adrenaline was one of the many body fluids Q couldn’t produce, but would he be human his heart would be beating rapidly in his chest, trying to break through his ribs into freedom and away from the fear settling in his brain.
The werewolf reached out to him, pressed a soft kiss on Q’s lips and then reached out to get a coat, not wanting to walk around naked for the time it would take them to get into the city.
“We should go”, he said and Q nodded, opening the door and stepping out into the coldness of the night.
They reached the street they had carefully chosen earlier this day within four minutes, only because they had walked past a few humans and James couldn’t run as fast as Q, not when he was about to shift.
James’ eyes were shining in the darkness, a bright yellow light which later would turn back to the blue but in an inhuman shade and brightness, as bright as Q’s red eyes which fell on him, walking into an alley where no one would be able to see them.
No one would miss one or two humans here, and no one would suspect a vampire and a werewolf to be responsible for it. They would blame a dog and would kill one, as brutal as it sounded it was something Q used to his favour.
“You should better take a step backwards”, James mumbled, and Q could see fangs break through his normal teeth, fingers twitching and claws growing.
The vampire did as he had been told, and watched in fascination as James fell on his fours, letting out a shuddering howl breaking the silence of the night. The sound of bones breaking, and muscles shifting, of fur breaking through skin and of organs growing or shrinking made Q wet his lips and consider to turn his head away, but he had seen this before and knew James wasn’t in pain.
As long as he didn’t try to suppress it, he was fine.
James howled again, and within one fluid motion the human was gone and on his spot a wolf stood up, shaking himself.
James’ fur was blonde but greying, and his eyes were sharp and still human. He took a step towards Q and the vampire offered his hand to let James sniff on it, a wet tongue wetting the skin between his fingers, sharp teeth nibbling at his fingertips.
Q smiled, reached down and scratched behind James’ ears, before he turned around and scanned the area.
Pushing his head against Q’s legs James passed him, patting out onto the empty street, eyes roaming over the homeless people sleeping, trying to find one whose flesh didn’t stink like they hadn’t washed themselves in ages.
Q lead the way and James followed, being able to keep up with Q’s speed as they ran, James’ tongue hanging out of his mouth and muscles working underneath his thick fur, visible to Q’s eyes. He jumped over a box laying in the way, landing on his fours and closed the distance between the two of them again, only stopping as Q gestured him to.
The fascinating thing about imprinting was that it felt as if Q could read James’ mind and the other way around, even though they couldn’t.
They didn’t need to look at each other to know that they found their victims, two men sitting next to each other on a bench, talking loudly, the scent of alcohol rising into Q’s nostrils.
He moved forward, smiling and approaching the men who looked up to him, suddenly forgetting their conversation as they stared into Q’s eyes, hypnotised and mesmerised enough to not notice the wolf suddenly leaping at them, breaking their necks.
Q smelled blood and forgot himself, jumping forward to burry his fangs in the throat of one of them, lapping at the neverending stream of hot, sticky blood filling his mouth and dropping down his chin.
He heard the other one scream, the sound of flesh being ripped off bones making Q grimace.
James’ fur was soaked in blood, especially around his muzzle, but Q’s hands and mouth weren’t any better.
The wolf sat down on his hind legs, lifted his head and howled into the night, and Q smiled at him before he searched for their next victims.
