Summary
In the quiet of the prep bay, Bond reviews a newly assembled field kit — methodical, precise, but not Q’s work. R stands in, steady and professional, giving him room to notice the difference.

No acknowledgment passed between them. No nod. No glance.

Not disengaged.
Just… trusting the space to hold.Bond let that settle — the shape of permission, even without words.
