    Summary

    A medical discharge finds Simon Riley starting afresh in a new city, and he has absolutely no idea what he's doing. With the help of his 80 year old neighbor and her cat, Simon tries to reassimilate into society, keep a steady job, and make a few friends along the way. Connecting with a fellow veteran-turned-bar-owner might be the saving grace he was looking for.

    Multichapter Veteran Bar AU, because Soap and Ghost are together in some aspect in every universe.

    Summary

    They say first impressions hold the power to shape perceptions, but when John Price encountered Nikolai for the first time in 2010, his initial assessment fell flat—mediocre, at best. Never would he have believed that one day, this seemingly unimpressive, arrogant Russian bastard would change everything.

    Summary

    Clearly seeing the confusion on Soap's face, Price cuts to the chase. “How much contact do you have with your family, son?”

    “Not much sir…. Why?” Soap’s starting to get nervous again.

    “Do you know of a Matthew MacTavish?” Price asks, brows furrowing.

    Ah, now that’s a name Soap hasn’t heard in over a decade. “Why?” Soap drops eye contact with the captain.

    “Matthew’s the head of the trafficking ring, do you know him?” Soap doesn't see it, but the others in the room tense. Waiting for his answer.

    “Ah– Um. yeh ah ken ‘im. He’s–” accent thickening with anxiety, Soap clears his throat. “He’s my.. He’s my Father.”

    or:

    Soap's father is found out to be the head of a criminal/terrorist organisation, one that's trying to take Makarov's place. Soap will have to face his past along with this team, will soap be able to stay calm or will he just has to accept his teams help.

    Summary

    The blade pressed hard against skin, and Simon's breath came heavy. "What the fuck are you doing in my house?"
    "Uh..."
    "Answer me!" Simon's voice was loud, harsh. The voice of a soldier.

    ____________

    What if Simon Riley found one John MacTavish breaking into his house?
