Summary
Every time he died, there was always a slight hesitation, an inkling of a thought in the back of his brain, ‘Is this it? Will this be the time it finally sticks?’ But it never happens. He always wakes up, bones creaking and shifting, gaping wounds sewing themselves back together in an impossible fashion, blood beginning to pump again as air rushes through healing lungs. It’s not that he can’t die, rather, he can’t stay dead.

Summary
There is nothing grounding him, nothing that keeps the voices out. No direction but forward. No direction but Johnny.
The last thing Ghost sees before crashing into Soap are his wide, crystal blue eyes and his mouth opening, not quickly enough to get anything out except for a strangled "Ghost-".
Their bodies connect with a shock. Ghost was prepared for the impact of body against body, the sudden heat and the pressure on his skin that felt grounding despite the pain. However, he didn't anticipate the crack of lightning rushing through his body the moment he touches Soap.
It shocks him right to his very core.
Ghost has long escaped his imprisonment at Roba's, most of his traumatic experiences burrowed deep in the most hidden corners of his brain.
Why is it now, with Johnny getting closer that he's plagued by nightmares and flashbacks? There is something special about the man, something scary... What is it Ghost doesn't remember?

John MacTavish and the Dementor's Kiss by TokyoHomo

Summary
Being an auror wasn't what John MacTavish thought it would be. No one cared about magic anymore. He was just cleaning up the wizarding world's messes born from neglect. Where were all the dark wizards that used to threaten the world he loved so much? What happened to the excitement he experienced at Hogwarts? What happened to the boy he fell for before he was ripped away by circumstances beyond his control? Maybe he should just give up and join the muggle world like so many others.
Well, if Simon Riley hadn't suddenly shown up after a decade apart, maybe John wouldn't have answers to all those questions.

A fic with Call of Duty characters living in the Wizarding World, taking on a new evil that threatens to destroy both magical and muggle worlds.

Summary
The 141's mission to eliminate the head of the Zaragoza cartel goes horribly wrong, and ends with Soap and Price captured. They’ve got no weapons and no allies, and Roba’s second-in-command, The Ghost, is keeping them under constant watch.
The Ghost is an enigma. Roba’s right hand, his executioner. A faceless, stone-cold soldier with deadly accuracy. No name, no photos. Only one single, terrified survivor’s testimony describing him as la muerte encarnada; death incarnate.
But as the weeks of captivity go by, Soap begins to think there’s more to the man beneath the mask, and Price finds himself recalling old memories of a past subordinate. Soon, they find that their most dangerous enemy may just be their only hope for survival.

a hungry dog in the street on a very short leash by hotdrinkfan

Summary
Simon was a mutt. A feral little bastard who didn’t- who couldn’t do what he was told, who refused to lie down and take it like a good boy. He was a guard dog, an attack dog, a stray. Something to use and throw away, to kick when it's down.
For better or worse, people have always treated Ghost as less than human. Always, until Captain MacTavish.

Summary
“That’s really smart and intuitive of you. These activities are not meant to be followed exactly because people think through and process things differently. It sounds like you’re a very visual and tactile person, so you found a way to make it work for you. I’m really glad you kept trying and didn’t give up, though that would have been fine as well.”
“Mmthanks” Soap mumbles and moves back to fully sit in his chair. He is definitely not thinking about the ways Simon is visual and tactile as well.
Simon hands Soap his journal and waits for Soap to say anything more. Which he doesn’t because he can’t because Simon has said things to him that no one has ever said. It’s the opposite of his nightmare from last week. He’s sitting in the office of someone who would’ve been his superior if they were still enlisted and he’s being told he’s talented and intuitive like it’s nothing. But it’s not nothing. It’s everything.

Three months after being medically discharged, Soap is feeling aimless and in need of support. He goes to his local Veterans Association and meets with social worker Simon Riley, who helps him find a new way forward

Summary
He let his eyes run over them, lingering only as long as he felt necessary to make Roba think he was appreciative.
"They're quite lovely. You're a man of good taste and it shows in not just your estate, but your slaves." He wanted to bite his own tongue off as he said the words, knowing now that this week would be more challenging than he initially thought.
"Which would you like?"
John blinked. "I'm sorry?"
"As our honored guest, you have your choice of our best offerings. Whichever slave you choose will be prepared to your liking and sent to your room for the duration of your stay."
OR
John MacTavish finds himself in the castle of a cruel ruler who is rumored to have his eye on the Garrick crown. In a desperate attempt to infiltrate his ranks, he must keep the king occupied while Price puts his ear to the ground.
The only problem is that the king's desire to show off his human collection had placed John in a difficult position. Given a slave to attend to his needs for his stay means that he must balance his own moral compass with the very real risk of exposing their operation and losing their lives, or worse.

Summary
Simon exhales sharply through his nose, dragging his gaze back to the ceiling. “How bad?”
Johnny tilts his head, assessing him. “Could be worse. You got caught in the blast, took some shrapnel. Doc said you were lucky—couple inches to the left, and you’d be down a kidney.” He hesitates, his frown deepening. “Scared the hell out of us, mate.”
Simon hums, the weight in his limbs making it impossible to do anything more. He’s too exhausted to argue, too drained to tell Johnny that he’s not worth the concern.
Not that it would matter.
Johnny wouldn’t listen anyway.
