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 have a new headcanon now: James Bond has appalling taste in TV shows. He really likes terrible reality tv.

He votes religiously re: Dancing with the Stars. If he's on-mission, he makes Q vote for him.

He watches Survivor and gets surprisingly into it, kind of the way that an Olympic athlete might still enjoy rooting for the local small town league.

(Am I the kind of trash that wants an MI6 Survivor AU? Or, hell, some kind of cracky in-canon Survivor fic? Maayyybe.)

(I haven't even watched the show in years...but I want Bond and Q being the antagonistic-yet-with-respect-for-mutual-competence leaders of Red and Blue team until SUDDENLY THERE IS A TWIST and they are both on the same side and then one of them picks the other to go on a reward trip with them and they end up showering and cuddling and being relieved that they don't have to eat gruel or w/e together. And Silva is a manipulative creep, and M is the long-suffering showrunner, and Tanner is the host guy who explains everything, and Eve, IDK, succeeds in getting Bond voted off until OHOHO WE ARE BRINGING BACK ONE OF THE ELIMINATED CONTESTANTS BUT CERTAINLY NOT BECAUSE THE LACK OF 00Q CHEMISTRY HAS LOWERED OUR RATINGS OR ANYTHING. *cough* Ahem. Anyway.)

oh jeez that would be amazing (and hilarious)

I've never watched Survivor but last night we were watching Total Wipeout (plain old Wipeout if you're in the US) and I was thinking how ridiculous a fictional characters episode would be. I mean, I was thinking the Avengers, but can you imagine the Bond crew playing? James goes well until he reaches the big balls, he makes it to the second one before falling in (he manages to do a dramatic flip which gets replayed like 5 times), Q tries to use strategy which sort of works, Carter (from Casino Royale) falls in the mud right at the start of each obstacle, Villiers is the average Joe who doesn't even get a silly nickname and Eve surprises everyone by aceing all the courses and beating Bond easily in the Wipeout Zone

I've never watched Wipeout, but it sounds similar to Ninja Warrior, which I've seen a bit of. Love the idea of Bond doing a dramatic exit into the water, as he tends to do. (More proof that Bond is secretly a water elemental: plunging into deep water only seems to make him come back stronger. But with Wipeout the whole coming back stronger thing doesn't really work when you're disqualified and don't get dogged persistence points, haha. Messes with Bond's M.O. a bit!) And I am so here for Eve kicking everyone's butt through sheer well-qualified competence. Lol at Q: You tried, buddy. And probably got farther than people expected you to, which is what matters. At least you beat Carter!
