Bond was lounging at the bar before the appointed time, nursing a scotch and waiting for M. Neither his posture nor his expression changed when she entered the room. This was strictly business, and the faster he got the unpleasantness out of the way, the better. He always thought that dealings with M were best when handled from a distance.
"Ma'am," he said at her approach. The only sign that something might be out of the ordinary was the slight twitch of his brow when a large, clanking suit of armor entered behind her. The thing was easily wider across the shoulders than he was and taller, too. It stood menacingly in the space normally occupied by her bodyguard.
"I see you've found a replacement. I must admit, this is probably a step up in personality from Mitchell."
