    Summary

    Soap is used to taking blows to his pride -- he knows he talks too much, clutters the comms with his never-ending chatter. He's been told time and time again that he needs to shut his trap, to lower his voice, to stop bouncing his damn leg like an impatient child. It's never really bothered him much. He is used to it.

    But when Ghost tells him to shut up, he doesn't exactly know why it hurts so damn much. Maybe he's being too sensitive. But he does shut up. He will do as he's told for once.

    Even if it means life or death.

    I'm crying the writing in this is so bad, please pretend you don't see this

    Summary

    Soap is touchy on a normal day, but when he’s drunk it’s far worse. His thigh keeps brushing up against Ghost’s, and at one point he grabs the lieutenant's hand and lightly squeezes to get his attention when Soap begins to tell some elaborate story to him and Gaz.
    The touch only lasts a few moments but Ghost is (selfishly) thankful he didn’t wear his gloves tonight so that he could remember, if only briefly, how warm Johnny’s hand felt in his.

    (Soap and Ghost are trapped in each other's orbit, both too scared to admit how they feel. It may hurt, but not as bad as it hurts when Soap is taken and his captors use a unique and personal method of interrogation....)

    Summary

    Soap ignored it at first. When the weird relationship he had with Ghost was still new, still fresh, he ignored it. He held Ghost close and put him on a pedestal. Ghost did the same to him. They were on cloud nine together.

    Or

    Ghost accidentally calls Soap far too many times and Soap doesn’t want to hurt him so he stays quiet

    Summary

    It is said that people are destined to repeat the past, and James T. Kirk already has. If time is a circle, then Jim’s life is loop-after-loop of disappointment and desertion as he’s abandoned by those he loves. Separating his own fate from that of his father’s aboard the Kelvin seems to be an impossible task, and it is hard for Jim to be optimistic when he has already died aboard the Enterprise. Jim just can’t shake the feeling that he is doomed to repeat this cycle and that soon, his own ship will go down, too.

    After all, ships go down all the time. If Jim isn’t too careful, the Enterprise (and himself) will sink.

    This work is complete! Enjoy!

    Summary

    If anyone asked Soap why he decided to keep the injury he sustained on a recent mission a secret he would not be able to answer, he knew it was a serious injury - a stab to the side should always be taken seriously but everyone had sounded so happy when they said that there were no injuries to any of the crew, which due to their profession was a miracle.
