📕 please!

Thank you for the ask!

So: a plot of a fanfiction I haven't written but I daydream about? Well, I'm not sure if this counts, because I technically have an outline, but here we go!

Essentially, the summary of this fic is that, after a mission gone wrong, Bond and Q end up stranded on a deserted island and have to survive.

They already have feelings for one another before this happens (maybe they've even been intimate at one point in the past, but are trying to be professional about it, idk I haven't figured that part out yet xD) but this situation makes them realise the depth of those feelings.

The island scenes that I have in my head really focus on their shared vulnerability in this scenario, and the subsequent tearing down of their emotional walls as they come to understand what they mean to one another. They face all kinds of very physical external conflicts/hardships: dehydration, starvation, exposure; they almost lose one another to illness and injury. Through these trials, they realise what they mean to one another and learn the lengths that they will go to keep the other by their side. It creates this very deep emotional intimacy between them, and after a time, they don't even need to use words. They just know each other that well.

And then...they are rescued.

This leads to the second part of the story, where they have to try to readjust to normal life back in London, returning to Six, etc. The psychologists who observe them insist that the two of them have a dangerous form of codependency from their trauma and that it's not healthy to continue. But Bond and Q don't want to give it up--this incredibly deep level of trust and love--and so this part is about their persistence to hold onto what they had on the island while also acclimating back to their old lives.

I'm not sure if I'll ever get around to writing it, because it's a lot, but it's always fun to think about this one from time to time :)
