Summary
The devices in his ears were the best the military could get him—expensive, discreet, smart. They helped in crowded shops and city streets. Let him catch parts of sentences if the person stood close and spoke clearly. High-frequency filters, speech enhancement, all of it.
But it was like trying to listen to a symphony through a cracked radio. Tinny. Fuzzy. Off.
And when it was quiet like this—no traffic, no orders, no gunfire to cut through—it felt worse.
He could see your voice. Your lips forming his name.
He wanted to hear it.
Christ, he wanted to hear it.
Or:
Simon gets medically discharged -and despite himself he helps an old lady cross the street. Leading him all the way home to her niece-you.

Summary
You didn’t see him at first. Couldn’t be blamed, given the darkness. Instead, you tried to light up your cigarette time and time again, your lighter never producing a flame strong enough to burn the tip. Sighing, you resigned yourself and turned to go back inside, and just then you noticed him, sitting in the shadows.
“Good evening,” you said, voice high, one hand raising to accompany the greeting. He would have nodded, but then realised you couldn’t see him, so he decided to use his voice. Sparingly.
“Evenin’”. You were squinting now, trying to– look at him in the face? He drew away from the light emanating from the cigarette. You must have caught the drift of his action, because you pushed away from the railing and looked down for a second. You were hard to dissuade nowadays as ever, though.
“Sorry to bother you,” you spoke again after a while, “could I use your lighter for a moment? Mine’s dead.”
Back in highschool, Simon Riley was the first person to not make you feel like an outcast.
Twenty years later, you move next to one massive dude after your divorce.Bookmarked by Em3LEVIII

Summary
Like deer meat picked off by carrion birds, you are plucked up during a scavenging raid by tactical-clad men all in black. There is no possibility of returning to your old life. You’re forced to assimilate, to conform to the remaining dredges of society. With that comes a choice: select someone to marry or the government will do it for you. You make the rash choice, selecting the skull-faced stranger that snatched you in the first place.
