Weekly Recs!

We had some wonderful weekly recs last week for the theme 'first time'! This week, as well as those fanworks you've seen over the past week, we want to see your fanwork recs for the genre of:

Summer Holidays!

Yes that's right, we want all of those fanworks that have James and Q on holiday, trying to go on holiday, or being stuck on a deserted island and then they kind of make it into a holiday anyway!!

Developing the Comm

There will be separate post for all the comm plans up sometime over the weekend (namely, when I've had a chance to write them up!!)

Question Time!

1) Who would you say is you favourite fan creator in the 00Q fandom? Why is this? (You can have more than one!)
2) Do you tend to leave comments on fic/art work?
3) What do you think James and Q's hobbies would be? Why is this?

If you have any more questions, please feel free to add more! :)

I'm excited to hear about comm development, yay!

1) 00Q fandom is so amazingly talented and diverse that it's hard to pick a favorite! winterhill and dhampir72 consistently create lovely fics that make me think and feel in the best kinds of ways. Only_1_Truth is my favorite long-fic writer; it's been a true pleasure to see them grow as a writer in the 00Q community!

2) I'm actually super curious about my own reading-to-comment ratio right now, because I like to think that I'm fairly good about leaving comments, but then again...maybe not. I probably comment on maybe a third of the fics that I feel I ought to comment on--ones that I really like, or have read multiple times, or made me feel something very strongly. What makes you guys comment on a fic?

3) Bond cooks. It's nice to spend some time being creative and constructive after being a destructive force on missions, plus the food is its own reward and it tends to impress people when you're trying to pull. Also, if he's in the mood to avoid people because humanity sucks, he doesn't even have to tip a delivery boy.

Q has various online communities that he's involved in, some of which involve mentoring and gently steering up-and-coming young grey hats away from international espionage and toward genuinely useful opensource software creation, and some of which involve online Scrabble tournaments and webcomics and talking about the latest foreign films he's watched as a way to keep up with his languages.

4) Really self-indulgent question: How or why would James and Q approach/use/enjoy role play in their relationship? Or would they? (Any kind of role play--not just BDSM, and not even necessarily sexual in nature. Doctor/Jack Harkness? Pirate/first mate? Puppy and indulgent caretaker? Or even a Quartermaster and 007 switch? Or what about the times when they might have to use it on-mission? Whatever comes to mind for you guys!)
