    Summary

    He’s not too self-conscious to scoff. “Even if I was to… 'polish the banister',” he starts, dipping down to feel for his glasses, “I wouldn't do it in the same room as you.”

    “Why not?” Bill stretches his arms up and folds them behind his - well, not head. “Hasn't stopped you all the other times.”

    His heart thrums hard, off-beat. His hands feel numb, heavy, like sandbags, dropping limply to press against the cool concrete floor. “What other times,” he rasps out.

    Bill squints his eye in a facsimile of an unimpressed look. “Last night. Night before. Night before that. Used a pillow that time, that seemed to work pretty good-”
    ____________

    in which Ford's frustrations are getting in the way of his work, and Bill is happy to lend a helping hand!

    Summary

    eleutheromania ; noun
    from the Ancient Greek ἐλευθερία (eleuthería, “freedom”) + -mania
    a great desire for or obsession with freedom

    Sometimes soldiers wake up inside a simulation. Sometimes they get out of it. Sometimes they stay out of it.

    A decent dose of plot, with a flurry of shameless smut smacked in the middle of it. Ghost/Soap centric, with an eventual background plot focus (and fairly equal smut focus) on the other pairings tagged.

    Summary

    It was good to stand there, being close again, sharing the same space. John‘s cheeks were red from the cold, the tip of his nose, too. No matter how beautiful the falling snow was in the English countryside, Ghost couldn‘t stop looking at John.

     

    Despite wanting to trace his features, brush over the small drops of molten snow on his cheek, over his beard, he didn‘t. They were very much out in the open, their arms just covered by the railing of the tower.

     

    I missed you, he wanted to say, but didn‘t.


    The low baritone of Simon's voice reached him like a shot of whiskey burning its way into his belly, equal parts warm, comforting and intoxicating.

     

    The words were soft, though, not a hint of cheek in them, and wasn't that curious.

     

    He wanted to go to Simon, push himself into his big body like a little boy pulling a thick, familiar blanket over himself. Wanted to kiss him hello, but he stood there, unsure what kind of cover the dark gave them.

     

    Missed you, he thought to say, but didn't.

    Summary

    Ghost can handle torture. Torture is easy, it’s been done to him so many times he can turn his brain off and it’s like it’s not even happening. Except they’re not torturing him, they’re torturing Soap on his behalf. Tearing him apart piece by piece so that Ghost will tell them everything.

    But their mission is on the line, and Soap is telling him to let it happen, that his life isn’t as important as keeping their intel out of enemy hands.

    So he bites his tongue while they break Soap, just waiting for the moment they make a mistake.
