Why this must be read: Although technically this is a crossover, it's mostly a caper fic. It's set pre-series and in the first 10 minutes or so of Casino Royale. And if you didn't know in advance who the other guy was, or had never heard of James Bond, it wouldn't matter. This is brilliant.
Warnings for violence and a bit of dubcon.
Excerpt:
Michael Westen was being punished.
They didn't say that, of course, because the CIA boys were bureaucrats at heart, only with more guns, and no one was better than a bureaucrat at sprinkling sugar on a load of crap. Light duty, they called it. Think of it as a vacation, they told him. See the sights, they said.
"A vacation," Michael echoed. "In Prague."
Dan's voice crackled over the secure line. "You got something against Prague?"
"Oh, not at all. Lovely city. Lovely people. Some of them haven't even tried to kill me yet."
"That situation was taken care of."
"Yes, I'm sure the Czech government has spoken very sternly to them."
"I'm not gonna argue with you, Michael," Dan said. "Take the job or take a suspension. Your choice."
"Suspension?" He hefted a paperweight in his hand, evaluating it for bludgeoning purposes, then dropped it back on the desk. "That's a new one."
"Your cover was blown in Dublin. It shouldn't have been. Until we can figure out why--"
"I told you why," Michael said. He grabbed an uncapped ballpoint pen from the desk and started doodling in the corner of the room service menu. "You did read my report, right? I worked very hard on that report."
"Oh, I read it," Dan said.
"That sounds ominous."
