    Chained In The Dark:

    I’m the son of the son of the witches you failed to burn…
    The problem with old gods… is that you believe that they are sleeping. That as you curl into your blankets or build your churches, you soothe yourself that they are simply old stories, more myth than substance.
    You’re half right.

    Summary

    Biologist Kyle Garrick is in charge of the team taking care of Toun Foindle, the guarded nature reserve no. 141 in Scotland. It was set up to protect a nesting forest of Scottish crossbill and a very rare grey seal mer colony. All is going well, except the never-ending influx of nosy tourists overstepping boundaries and poachers trying to steal the mers for private collectors, until his husband, journalist and mer rights activist Gary Garrick, gets a target on their back by messing with a wealthy private collector.
    Or:
    Orca mer Ghost has had a horrible life filled with abuse from humans and the deaths of his entire pod. After getting captured and being neglected by a private collector for a year he is suddenly dumped in a very specific Scottish Loch in Toun Foindle.

    Summary

    He'd earned his rank, his honors, and his name. There’s been little time where he wasn’t working, being sent on mission after mission. John went where he was ordered and completed the job he was given, he was confident.  That didn't mean he was ready to lead a Task Force of twenty soldiers.

     

    Ghost sits across from him, lowering his bag to the floor next to him. Still sitting ramrod straight.

    Summary

    “So then, where do you go?” Soap had managed to get the words out while in between rounds of sparring, drinking obscene amounts of water in between syllables. When Ghost looked at him like he had grown a third arm – confused, curious, mildly terrified – he clarified. “During mail call?”

    Soap could identify almost every single emotion Ghost had, even through the mask and the greasepaint and the faceplate. But the forced neutrality? That wasn’t quite yet decrypted. He could understand the half-hearted shrug Ghost threw him. “Depends,”

    or

    Soap takes Ghost home with him and Ghost becomes a part of the family.

    Summary

    The thing he admired most about him was the reason he couldn’t do it. Soap was loyal to a fault. And now she’s taken that for granted. Chewed it up, spit it out, and ground her heel in it for good measure. Ghost prays to a god he doesn’t believe in that he never sees the traitorous bitch again.

    OR

    Sent home early from deployment, Soap wants to surprise his family, but his homecoming goes horribly wrong. Heartbroken, he comes back to base to the ones he trusts most. Ghost wants to show him just want loyalty means to him.
