221b_recsTitle: parallels and perpendiculars
Author: raven_aorla
Pairing: Jim Moriarty/Q, James Bond/Sebastian Moran, James Bond/Q, Sebastian Moran/Jim Moriarty; James Bond/Eve Moneypenny
Length: 7,878
Rating: Mature
Verse: Sherlock BBC, Skyfall (James Bond)
Author's summary: MI6 has become concerned at the growing influence of a faceless criminal mastermind known to some as Moriarty. Meanwhile, surveillance has indicated that a junior member of his organization, a young mathematical and computer genius named Jim, has been picking up a series of intelligent, small, delicately-featured, and dark-haired young men at bars and clubs over the past few months. Q volunteers to take one for the team.
Reccer's comments: There are a lot of interesting Sherlock/Skyfall crossovers out there, but this one is a bit different. Instead of fitting the two universes together, this one is an AU as far as Sherlock is concerned. Set before A Study in Pink, this is the story of what happens when Moriarty’s attention is caught by a different dark-haired genius. The characterization of both Moriarty and Q are wonderful, and the parallels between Bond and Moran are perfect. Sherlock and Mycroft have some nice cameos, but it’s Moriarty and Q who are the heart of this story.
