evil bunnies and snippets

jamjar is once again evil. Went to see Bond. The bunnies happened. Oh, and we counted 14 individual product placements.

The fact that Vesper and Bond would have beautiful, scary children is moot. The fact that these children are actually Simon and River is besides the point. Shh.

Simon walked in, and moved some broken glass on the floor aside with his foot.

A voice floated down from above him. River was laying on the banister above. "Daddy and Mummy are fighting again."

"Yes, I know." Simon looked off to one side. "I saw the pool boy. He looks exhausted."

What's worse, however, are the Bond/Torchwood bunnies.

Y'know, missions crossing, etc. Ianto with a cup of coffee going "I didn't think it was possible to get double the sexual harassment I normally get."

Owen looks annoyed. "I don't see what they've got that I don't have."

Gwen, Tosh and Ianto snort simultaneously. "If you have to ask, you'll never know."

Tosh says distractedly "We have got the cctv recording, don't we?"

"Captain Jack Harkness."

"Commander James Bond. I believe I out-rank you."

"I believe you do." Jack says, and grins. "But I believe I have seniority."

Torchwood pay a visit to MI6, may or may not be connected.

Torchwood Three walk in, oozing style as always, the bastards. Torchwood One were all business, you could cope with them. The Welsh lot - well. Bastards.

M glances up as Torchwood walks in. "Harkness, don't touch my secretaries." Then goes back to whatever she's looking at. Without looking up, she adds "In fact, don't speak to them or even look at them. Stand over there where you'll do the least damage to my staff."

"Hey, what did I do?" Jack asks, trying to sound innocent, but the grin and swagger are giving him away.

"I knew your father. It appears the Harkness genes run true."

assessment, yay!

Had assessment at work. Which lasted 1h45m. It was... thorough.

Many things were gone over in detail. Considering my side of the form that I'd filled out often included 'er... possibly' and 'um, what?' 'we do not speak about customer services' 'leadership? me? I think *not*' and the classic 'I feel my sewing skills are under-utilised' (the form did *ask* what skills you have that you don't use), it's scary how much detail they went into or pulled out of me.

The 'how do you feel about your training of other people went' produced 'er, what?'. Then they pointed out that I'd trained everyone in my department and it seemed to have worked out rather well. I keep forgetting that. And that I keep records on things, notes of what doesn't work, possible solutions, re-wrote various manuals and have the most techie knowledge of the system of our lot. I keep forgetting this because it gets swallowed by day-to-day. The fact that I describe myself as 'needing a good kicking occasionally' seems to disturb my bosses. As well as telling them that if you want something to get through to me, you need to be ridiculously blunt. 'you, er, don't subscribe to the idea of treat others as you would be done by?' 'oh, sure. I'm just saying that if you want something to get through to me specifically, it needs to be blunt.' 'How would you describe Morven's work?' 'Ridiculously efficient, goddess on earth, do you want me to be embarassingly gushy?'

I think they keep being a little surprised by my tendency towards colourful euphemisms for things. They work with me every day, they should be used to it and stop blinking and vicibly re-wiring their brains at such phrases as 'branches that contain entire trees and we so don't go there'.
