voicetesting | mun & muse would both love a drink right about now

[stronginwill]

Should I be flattered?

[Bond looks vaguely amused - but then, he isn't a big advocate of "showing your true colours."]

Frankly, I'm surprised there aren't more of me in here. I suppose I'm an acquired taste.

[Like brandy. Or cyanide.]

Comments

[unreachableutopia]

Isn't it fortuitous that aren't many of you?

[It's discomforting to see so many with her face. Even when they aren't even the same person.]

[stronginwill]

One would think.

[But he's just so handsome, wouldn't you want to see more of him?]

A friendly face wouldn't go amiss, though.

[spectrenumber1]

I fail to understand why anyone would be enamored by such banal, crude thug such as yourself. The 007 I knew at least had some charm and appreciation for artistry.

[stronginwill]

Artistry?

[Ha. Don't make him laugh. Professional murder is an art in and of itself.]

Chocolate can't be everyone's favourite flavour of ice cream.

[But perhaps he's more like Rocky Road...]

[spectrenumber1]

And lacking in genuine wit as well. The fact of the matter is that you, Mr. Bond are very much out of your league. If you are are unable to deal with a group of second-rate amateurs like Quantum than you stand no chance against the true geniuses of crime and terror.

[stronginwill]

[A true genius of crime and terror? Let's be frank, sir, you look like you're decked out for a costume party.

And the cat? Who menacingly strokes a cat nowadays? Is that supposed to be a metaphor for how much sex Blofeld is not getting?]

I'll be sure to put you on the top of the to-do list whenever M gets around to identifying you as an actual threat.

[spectrenumber1]

Oh, I forgot to mention that you are currently standing on a trap-door that leads directly to an incinerator. Goodbye, Mr. Bond.
[pushes a button on his chair and down you go.]

[stronginwill]

[Beg pardon? Godmoding in the metasphere? Ernst, we thought you were better than that. Such drastic measures must be agreed upon by both parties involved.

Therefore, Bond is still standing.

And still good-looking.

And still smiling.]

...You were saying?

[revenge_is_sweet]

Perhaps you are over stretching your ego, James. Be careful of that.

[stronginwill]

You'd know a thing or two about ego, wouldn't you?

[aerophobe]

I shudder to think of a world with more than one of you, frankly.

[stronginwill]

What? Can't handle a little mayhem?

[Or...more than a little.]

Here I thought you could manage that in your pajamas.

[aerophobe]

[ flatly: ]

I don't think I want your brand of "mayhem" anywhere near my pajamas, thank you.

we're all voicetesting at this point, whew

[seniority]

Well, thank goodness for small mercies.

[ Q has enough trouble keeping track of one of you. ]

[stronginwill]

Fair enough.

[Not like James needs the mental image of Q in his jim-jams, anyway. He smirks.]

Is my exploding pen ready yet?

I KNOW RIGHT and so many adorable Q cuties *_____*

[stronginwill]

First time I've ever heard someone call me a small mercy.

we prefer Qties, actually *is shot*

[seniority]

The fact that I can't tell if you're referencing your propensity for collateral damage or making an innuendo worries me deeply.

Q-TIE PATOOTIE

[stronginwill]

In the words of King Solomon, why not both?

[Does he look like he's joking?]

[seniority]

[ ABORTABORTABORT. ]

I'm not certain you should invest in the words of a man with three hundred concubines and twice as many wives.

[stronginwill]

Maybe I'll get a proper role model and start adopting pets from the local shelter.

[He doesn't sound entirely sinister, but there's a note of seriousness in his tone that says Q is probably treading on unwelcome ground.

Not everyone has the luxury of growing up "normal."]

[aerophobe]

[ that he should be so lucky...! ]

Oh yes, quite ready. Do expect it in the mail any day now.

[ the sarcasm. it drips. ]

[seniority]

You couldn't keep a pet cactus alive.

[ It's without heat; fact of the matter is no MI6 employee is strictly suited for what someone might call a "normal" life. The maladjusted and solitary are enticed to the job, but does he think Q clocks out and goes about having a normal social calendar with his folks? Not bloody likely, old man. ]

I understand you're not very easy on yourself, but there should be a reason that a mundane has taken an interest aside from your sparkling personality, isn't there?

[ ...Isn't there? ]

[unreachableutopia]

Would you be on friendly terms with someone who claims to be you? Truly?

[Sounds skeptical.]

[suppliesgadgets]

Really Double-O Seven, I don't think the world needs more than one of you.

/SCREECHES because Desmond Llewelyn oh my god

[stronginwill]

God knows if there were, you wouldn't have any funding left.

[Is he right, or is he right?]

How's tricks, Q?
