"My current theory is that we were fed false information by an unknown party in hopes that you'd take Tony out of the equation," Q said calmly, offering Tony a tissue and an apologetic wince. "There's no seller here. Unless you have some competition we're unaware of."
Tony took the tissue, then shook his head. "Not anymore. I took over after I quietly took down a small time seller from this area. ...Hey, Quinton- Or, whatever your real name is, could you go make sure Alice is alright? She's not great with blood," he said, patting Q's shoulder just as gently as he had before.
Q hesitated, but Bond seemed calm enough, and he nodded before heading out to do as he was asked.
Tony turned his attention back to Bond then, wetting his lips as he looked the agent over. "You're a damn good actor, I'll give you that. The kid though- You can't tell me some of that wasn't real. This is what I do, these are the people I help, and that boy- He's textbook. You sure you want him heading back to- What are you? Interpol? Six? ...Either way, I could get that kid a new life. Something less... You know?"
