“What could 009 have possibly said to have you smiling like that?” Bond demanded. He had passed the other agent on his way to see Q for equipment, having come in just as 009 was finishing up his own business with the Quartermaster.
Q sighed exhaustedly and rolled his eyes. “Honestly, 007, I don’t know why you waste your energy being jealous of him. You’ve more charm in your little finger than he does in his whole body.”
Bond froze, his expression stunned before quickly shuttering. When he remained quiet rather than offering a dig at 009 or a quip in return, Q eyed him curiously.
“007?”
Bond blinked, looking past Q with a blank expression. “Sorry. Forgot to tell Tanner something,” he said curtly, spinning on his heel and striding quickly back out of Q’s workshop.
“007? …Bond!” Q was abruptly on his own again in the workshop. What the devil was that all about? Q had expected flirtation in return, as was Bond’s wont, perhaps a salacious comment about what he could do with said finger. He’d thought he was giving the man a compliment, but it seemed to have landed wrong, somehow. He was quite certain that Bond didn’t actually have to speak with Tanner.
No matter, Q told himself. He didn’t have time to wonder over the agent’s moods. He had hoped for a bit of distraction when Bond came in, as he was usually good for a bit of banter, if not outright flirting, and he was a treat to look at, but Q supposed that would have to wait until later. He had equipment to clean and put away, and a distressing number of emails awaiting responses. Bond was bound to come back, as he needed to get his gear before leaving for his flight to Taiwan in the early hours of the following morning. Q had plenty to occupy himself with until then.

So I’ve been listening to podcasts again and I wish someone had done this for me when I started out, so let’s sum up and describe some podcasts, shall we?
The Magnus Archives - Jonathan Sims, newly instated Head Archivist at the Magnus Institute, London, is trying to sort through statements of people that claim to have had all kinds of supernatural encounters, while only having a taperecorder to do so, because for some reason, the statements won’t let themselves be recorded on anything else. But I’m sure it’s nothing, right? Supernatural Horror at it’s finest, with incredible characters and worldbuilding. 200 episodes.
Welcome to Nightvale - An incredibly cryptic podcast, set in the fictional town of Nightvale, where all the conspiracy theories are true. Listen to Cecil Palmer, the host of Nightvale Community Radio talk about the happenings in the town, his day and that strange, beautiful new scientist that has come to town. Over 200 episodes, ongoing.
Wolf 359 - Communication Officer Doug Eiffels log of the USS Hepaestus’ journey, observing the red dwarf wolf 359. Twists and turns, some expected, some most definitely not, all in all a good time for all podcast fans. 61 episodes.
The Strorage Papers - Unsetteling horror stories, found in a storage lot, unraveling faster that a ball of yarn. Can you keep up? And, perhaps the more important question: Can you keep it together? Carefully crafted stories that make you lock your doors twice. 104 episodes, ongoing.
The Penumbra Podcast - The space noir tales of Private I, Detective Juno Steel and his adventures on planet mars. A podcast so mysterious and casually queer, it’s almost addictive. Although their phonecall noise sounds like my alarmclock, the sound design, characters, storytelling and worldbuilding are unlike anything I’ve ever come across. 4 seasons with about 20 episodes.
Camp Here and There - Camp Nurse Sidneys recordings of her daily announcements. If you’re a fan of Gravity Falls, this is that next summer you’ve been waiting for. 34 episodes for now, possibly ongoing, possibly not.
This is it for now, I’ll be adding on when I can. I hope this’ll help someone… or not.

*I also had someone suggest The Neighborhood, and was halfway through adding The Neighborhood’s entire discography to this playlist before I realized that while I thought taking over a playlist with one artist right smack dab in the middle would be a fun joke, it probably wouldn’t be listener friendly 😅
*violently taps screen*
LET ME REBLOG IT!!!
Anyways I’d like to cite Mads Mikkelsen having to fight himself from kissing Hugh Dancy at the end of Hannibal.
