My (your) favorite spy
Sep. 7th, 2012 09:29 amVery happily, the Much Ado sequence is beginning to gel in my head. Apparently my brain has self-preservation protocols built in which held off on this until I was done and had safely posted the first bit (being TSP woo hoo!). I can now begin working on the important bit while I use the Baker Street Interludes as caramelly-centred snack breaks.
This year (the Much Ado year) we are all about spies. In fact, in late-breaking news from the invisible being whispering into my brain: John paused, shook his head slightly in disbelief. “Hang on,” he said, “are you saying there’s a spy convention going on down the village?” “Well, I don’t believe they name it as such,” Mycroft sniffed, “but essentially, yes.”
I have plenty of competent investigators on the ground (J&S, Lestrade & Martin [Competent!Martin, yes, really] Hannay & Arbuthnot, Claude & Grandmere [yup, French Resistance] and Not Anthea [to whom I may need to issue a name this time around]) each of whom I need to give a plot line. So what I really need are some spies. Please feel free to fill out some or all of the requested criteria. Partially-filled info will serve as super secret mystery spy inspiration, so don’t be afraid to just flail round a bit. As always, I’m also open to *cough* borrowing an entire character if you have a favourite to offer up rather than making up someone new. In fact, take any character you’d like to see, and give them some motivation to become a spy!
**Do please note all spies are likely to be baddies; you don’t have to specify evil motivations, but don’t be surprised when your spy is thwarted within the story.**
Please feel free to submit as many spies as you like. The more spies the better!

Date: 2012-09-07 04:03 pm (UTC)Austin Powers (I personally think this would be hysterical, especially if he tried to hit on not!Athena)
the parents from the Spy Kids movies
Ethan Hunt (Mission Impossible)
Jason Bourne
It sounds as if you have a plan for James Bond already, but Bill also suggests Felix Leiter, who is his CIA counterpart. (The recent incarnation, played by Jeffrey Wright, is particularly awesome.)
(He's happy to come up with more spies later if you want, but he's kind of distracted at the moment.)
