Summary
Simon hid behind layers and a mask.
Simon hid behind the layers and the mask because he was afraid. He was afraid of people looking through him, seeing parts of him he didn’t want. Ghost was deadly. Ghost was a force that could blend into the darkness, could slink in the background and execute orders efficiently. His eyes were cold, his voice levelled.
The mask helped Ghost with this persona. He helped Simon tuck away, hide from the horrors of a world that only wanted to scorn him. He had been burned too many times before, and over time, it became easier to be Ghost than it ever was to be Simon. He needn’t bother trying to differentiate, anymore.
The mask stayed on. The layers hugged him close. And Simon was laid to rest.or
Ghost and Soap are sent on a stake out mission, for an indiscernible amount of time. When holed up in a one bedroom apartment with one another, a lot of things are learned, and a lot of walls are broken down.

Summary
He wanted to take this lonely man’s face between his palms and treasure him like something precious. The very man who saw himself as broken, fractured beyond repair. The scars that told his life story painted every aspect of his skin — a permanent reminder of the hell he went through — and Johnny wanted to take a brush dipped in gold, and fill in those cracks, like a piece of shattered pottery longing to be whole again. He wanted to let Simon know his past wasn’t the end of him. It did not scare him away.
