(OTA! Happy holidays! If you know Fin, Willy, Phouka, or Winter, feel free to assume they gave you an invite. If not, you can say your pup got an invite through a friend of a friend, someone who knows someone, ect. It IS invite over (no gate crashing pups please, Fin's a giver and would want everyone to feel included), but the pups hosting the party are pretty active and I believe they know almost everyone in the game. And the people they don't know surely know people who do. Even if you only met them once, you got an invite somehow! This gathering post is open all week, and beyond!)

"I think you slipped in the key word there at the end," Dutch remarked with a purse of her lips, eyes twinkling.

"In their defence, I don't think they could have anticipated needing me in the field, or my abduction," Q said absently, sipping his drink and watching the crowd as they danced. "It's not been my best year. Though if our new boss gets his way, I'll never leave my desk again. ...I don't know how to feel about that."

He didn't mind sharing those things with Dutch. After all, she was clever- If she wanted to know, she'd find a way to find out. His systems were some of the best in the world, but nothing was flawless, and Q wasn't as arrogant as he'd been before Skyfall.

[hardertohide]

"Relieved and gutted all at once?" Dutch took a wild guess, then reconsidered the proportions, if nothing else. "More gutted than relieved."

That was how she'd feel.

[quartermaster_q]

"I hate flying, and I hate being in the field, but- Yes. ...Yeah, I think I would be a bit," Q admitted.

[hardertohide]

"You hate flying?" Dutch echoed, clearly amused.

[quartermaster_q]

"I'm just not comfortable being in a metal tube that could, possibly, fall out of the air with me still inside it," Q replied with a tiny frown.

[hardertohide]

"But taking the car's just fine?" She was sure he knew the statistics, there.

[quartermaster_q]

"The cars I ride in have been improved upon by me and my team. Far less frightening than air travel," Q shrugged.

[hardertohide]

"You are such a control freak." It almost sounded like a compliment, much as Dutch herself treasured the feeling of letting go of control.

[quartermaster_q]

"I'm not!" Q insisted. "...I just don't trust machines I can't fully control."

[hardertohide]

"Right," Dutch grinned, "not at all."

[quartermaster_q]

Q pretended to scowl, then shrugged. "Alright, perhaps just a bit," he replied.

[hardertohide]

Dutch grinned again at his allowance. "But anyway, they're chaining you behind your desk and it sucks."

[quartermaster_q]

"Yes, it's not something I'd choose. Also, it could lead to having my lab taken away- And that would be unfortunate."

[hardertohide]

Dutch smirked. "If you ever come back to the fun side of the Force, reach out, will you?"

[quartermaster_q]

"I will," Q smirked, nodding once before catching Bond's eye and offering a wave. "I'll leave you to mingle. Happy Christmas, Dutch- And enjoy your gift. I'm sure you'll put it to good use," he added, smiling before heading off to see what Bond was getting up to.
