    Summary

    It’s a rare occasion to see Q like this. Throughout the first year of their friendship, Bond hadn’t found the slightest clue to indicate Q suffered from anything worse than a bit of work-related stress and the usual strange loneliness that plagued everyone who worked in espionage.

     

    ---

    There are text messages, and there are text messages. Bond knows which kind Q has just sent him.

    Can be read as a standalone, or as a follow-up to 'my hands have become death.'
