Summary
In the middle of it all stood Cody, who was carefully arranging a small pile of bright green, moss-covered balls into a bowl.
“Uh, Cody?” Wooley asked hesitantly. “What are you doing?”
Cody set the little bowl down on the kaff table and gave Wooley a grim look. “I,” he explained with the same gravity with which he had once delivered mission parameters, “am sprucing.”
Wooley made the mistake of suggesting Cody find new ways to occupy his time off.

Summary
“Will—” Choke stammered. “Will there be other brothers there?” he asked. “Where I’m going?”
Besh and Wesk exchanged a look. “Sorry,” Wesk said apologetically, “but it’s safer if we don’t send anyone to the same place. Harder to recognize just one of us.” He gestured back and forth between himself and Besh. “We run a big risk staying here together, but we make a good team. And he couldn’t get rid of me if he tried,” Wesk added with a grin. It earned him another snort from Besh.
Leaving the GAR is terrifying, but it's better than dying. One clone trooper gets a softer landing than most, courtesy of a couple of brothers who already know how to help.

Summary
Cody had traveled to dozens of those stars. He had fought under their distant light, ordering men to their deaths on planets he couldn’t even remember the names of. It was the position he had trained his entire life to command, the only goal he had ever worked toward. Be the best. Keep his men alive. Survive until the end.
The end had come; it spread out before Cody just like the star-studded sky, filled with a thousand possibilities. He had taken the first one that had fallen into his lap, agreed to yet another position tailor-made for his skills and his experience, something he could excel at. It was no great dream, the job waiting for him—no great burden, either. Just… what he was doing next.
With the war suddenly over and the galaxy at peace, Cody struggles to figure out how to start a life he never prepared to live. Fox creates room for him in the place he was making for himself, but Cody isn’t done searching yet. A story of learning who you were, who you hoped you’d be, and who you’ve become.

Summary
“Of course,” Gurney replied. “What can I do for you gentlemen today?”
Cody’s face stayed the same careful blank expression he usually wore on the bridge or in meetings, but the corporal’s face immediately went bright red. Alarm klaxons began to go off in the back of Gurney’s head. Wooley wore the sort of sheepish, guilty expression that typically led to Gurney being forced to ask questions like “how did it get stuck?”
He desperately hoped he was not about to have that sort of conversation with the commander.
The 212th's CMO has seen a lot of cases in his brief medical career, but this? This is a new one.

Summary
From Over the Sea is a Waxer/Boil fic inspired by a Charles Causley poem. It's a canon-compliant, post-Order-66 story, so it's a bit of a tear-jerker.
Three Long Summers Went By is a remix of that fic, reusing most of Chapter 1 and turning it into a much happier ending. It is not necessary to read From Over the Sea first.

Summary
Simon Ghost Riley can’t be touched. He thinks, sometimes, that if someone ever touches his bare skin, he might shatter into a thousand shards of glass, the same way that if someone ever says a kind word to him beyond "job well done, Ghost", he might break in such a way that he’ll never, ever be able to put himself back together again. He thinks, regularly, that he might be very, very fucked up.
Until Soap comes along. Soap, who has never been scared of him. Soap, who took one look at Ghost and his bulk and his defences and decided not to take them as the warning they are. Soap, who treats him like he’s normal. Soap, who came out of that fucking tunnel with a new scar on his temple and some chest candy to go with it, cocksure and confident, sharper and snarkier than ever.
Can Ghost find the intimacy he so desperately craves and learn to love again? Will Soap help him unlock a part of himself he thought was dead forever?
Spoiler alert: the answer is "yes".

Summary
‘We may have won the battle, but I fear the war with winter is just beginning.’
The aftermath of war is no laughing matter. Those who died must be honoured, those who are wounded must be healed, and those who remain need food and clothing, peace and sanctuary. With Thorin's life hanging in the balance, it is up to Bilbo and the rest of the Company to rule the rag-tag remnants of Erebor in his place.
Then there is the matter of the gold...
Can Bilbo save both king and kingdom, or is Erebor destined to fall deeper into ruin?

Summary
Ghost, under threat of another psychological evaluation from both his CO and therapist, has been forced to partake in a penpal programme with another soldier in order to "practise empathy" and "re-establish human connection." He hates it until he doesn't.
MacTavish willingly volunteers for the SAS's new penpal programme because what the hell, it could be fun. And when his penpal ends up being adorably emotionally constipated, well, that certainly doesn't hurt.

Summary
“No.”
“I wasn’t asking, Ghost.”
He shifted in his place. Can never get used to Price’s voice in his head.
“You know I work best alone. All he’s gonna do is get in the way.”
Price’s mustache twitched, as if he’s fighting a smile. Bastard is about to drop something to win the entire argument, Ghost already knows.
“He’s a revenant. Strong one too.”
Fucking figures. Still, he could argue he doesn’t need any support-
“Intel is rigged with explosives. And the Sergeant just so happens to be explosion-proof.”
… Fuck.
------
Taskforce 141 is the only squad composed of exclusively revenants, individuals who gain powers after dying once. Ghost is the revered revenant Lieutenant, who's powers are unknown to most and are only referred to as "Limbo".
Ghost works alone. Until a certain Scot shows up.
