Summary
“006, you ought to know better than to sneak up on someone holding a gun.”
“Gun parts.” 006 pointed out, “You have gun parts.”
Before Q could rationally think his actions through, he had reassembled the gun and had it loaded in a blink. It was loaded, aimed and ready to fire– even taking the few centimetres it leaned to the left in account.
“You seem to keep forgetting I am the one to have built the weapon you are here to return to TSS. Personally.”
Q lowered the gun and dismantled it just as easily as he had before, laying out the pieces on a tray and picking it up. He had to push past 006 who was still standing in the doorway, his eyes following Q as he moved to carry the tray back to the main workshop area.
“Well? What are you waiting for? I don’t have all night.” Q leaned on the workbench, peering at 006 sharply.
A look of amusement broke through 006’s otherwise stern facade. “Marry me.”
Pausing, Q blinked. “Did you just… Did you just proposition to your superior officer?”
006 nodded, grinning brightly.
“Drop your mission gear onto the workbench and get out of my Branch.” Q ordered, “Before I change my mind and shoot you.”

Summary
The painting is as good a place to start the conversation as anything. Bond looks at him, a glance at first, though Q doesn’t for a moment believe that glance isn’t enough to let Bond know a dozen different things about Q. Then Bond looks him over more carefully. There’s a moment of stillness, and then nothing really changes in Bond’s expression, but Q is suddenly sure Bond has made some kind of conclusion about him.

Summary
**COMPLETE!** Protecting the Quartermaster entails a special set of circumstances, and Q is the last one to know.
Excerpt:
“Your identity has been compromised,” M said as he leaned forward in his chair, his features grim even as his tone remained even and calm. “I am standing you down from all your duties in Q branch. Kindly hand in all personal computers and devices. I am placing you on administrative leave, effective immediately. You need to disappear for a while, Q, for your own safety. Think of this as the holiday you never had these past two years. We will get down to the bottom of this and repair the damage done; otherwise I shall have to ask you to step down.”
Q gaped at him, finally speechless.
“At any rate, quartermasters are entitled to double-O agents as bodyguards, when the need arises, and he personally volunteered,” M continued as though he’d not just dropped the equivalent of a bomb and a death sentence through slow torture rolled into one, “and I do agree that under the circumstances, 007 would be the best choice as your bodyguard.”

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.
The betting pool has been going on ever since.
