Summary
A random villain-of-the-week makes Robert late for work. It's only by a few minutes, yet the encounter that hardly lasted a few seconds instills a sudden chill in Robert's bones. Its persistence is matched only by the Z-Team's stubbornness as they force their dispatcher to join them in activities they think will warm him up.
But none of it matters if Robert can't learn to believe he'll ever be warm again... or that he deserves the warmth this team brings him.

Summary
There were three times Simon Riley attempted to take his own life—and one time Ghost succeeded.

Summary
Soap huffs, wiping the dried blood from his ear. He stares at his fingers for a long moment, then leans his head against the wall, staring out into the moonlight. “What if it didn’t have to be a mistake, huh? You and me. What if you could be happy?”
“I think that’s what I’m most afraid of.”
Or
When Ghost realised he was in love with Soap MacTavish, that realisation scared him beyond belief, and he cut himself off in response.
And he'd do anything to undo that mistake.

Summary
There’s a teddy in Soap’s bed; a beaten-up, old brown bear. Well-loved, if the state of the fur is any indication. Ghost lets out a choked laugh, mostly at his own expense. He wishes he was there, suddenly, wishes he was by Johnny’s side as he walked through the doorway and realised that his childhood room was waiting for him like a time capsule. Wishes he got to see the embarrassed scrunch of his face, the way the tips of his ears would flush red.
Soap has a whole second life, outside of the SAS. He’s got a mother, and a poorly-decorated bedroom, and a bear. All Ghost has is a flat that will be the same it is today as it will be the day he dies, like he was never even here at all.

Dances with the daffodils by toomanybats for wayaard
Fandoms: Call of Duty (Video Games)
18 Oct 2024

Summary
“Home sweet home.” Soap grins, elbowing the front door open. The air is a little stale, and there are still dust sheets covering most of the furniture, but there’s a warm light trickling through the windows, and a view out across the Cotswolds.
“I could’ve carried one of the bags, Johnny, I’m not a complete invalid.” Ghost sulked for most of the drive, tutted when Soap had needed to lean over to do his seatbelt for him.
“No, ye couldn’t.” Soap chides, dropping the two duffels in the hallways and rounding on Ghost to coax him into a hug. “Doctor’s orders, remember?”
“Fuck doctor’s orders.” Ghost grumbles, he won’t though, he’ll listen and obey and heal properly even if Soap has to tie him down and make him.

Now loyalty's a pistol (and my heart is full of holes) by C4TTO_626
Fandoms: Call of Duty (Video Games)
28 Jan 2024
Tags
Summary
Chapter 1 is the MWII "Alone" mission, but from Ghost's point of view. Because it's my favourite. Mostly in-game dialogue with the occasional small addition, and Ghost being a bit of a dense idiot with the emotional awareness of a knife.
Chapter 2 is my take on the time between leaving Las Almas and getting to the safehouse, from Soap's point of view. Because I may refuse to accept certain character deaths, but character harm? That's the good shit.First thing I'm writing for this fandom even though I've been here quietly since the original MW trilogy... I guess the Ghost/Soap brainrot got to me! Idiots living rent-free in my head and all that. It's fine. Writing a dozen half-finished WIPs in half a month is normal. Right?

Summary
Shaking, Ghost lifted both hands and gestured downwards to sign the most simplistic form of begging he’d ever willingly given.
“Stay?”
Soap regarded him carefully, and Ghost knew that he was read like an open book now. With no mask to hide behind his face was marred by whatever fleeting emotion passed through his head and heart in tandem. He could hide nothing like this, and it was terrifying. He slept soundly with his mask for this very reason, and Soap just watched all the while.
He was deciding if it was worth it.
The olive branch held across the ravine that divided their lives- the opening he’d been asked to give. A promise to try.
“Can I hold you?” was a hushed challenge to test the newfound boundaries between them as Soap’s hand hovered near the door.
. . .
The aftermath and recovery of torture as Soap fished out one [1] resident stupid from the river like a half-drowned cat.
Ghost is a broken man. Soap might bloody his hands on the jagged pieces, but he puts Simon back together again at the end of the day.Series

Summary
“You can probably guess what we’re doing today.” Ghost was still looking at him, expressionless once again.
“Going into town, getting a pint and entirely giving up on my knife skills?” Johnny joked, knowing there was no way out of this one.
Ghost ignored him.
“Pick a blade, and we’ll start training with that type.”
After Ghost sees Soap’s lack of skill with knives in action, he takes it upon himself to change that. Good thing he does, because later down the line it makes the difference between life and death.

Summary
When he had woken, it was to a skull swimming in and out of his vision, and for a second he figured that the reaper had come to claim his wretched soul. It didn’t scare him much; after all, he had long since accepted his meeting with death would come early in this job. He would have liked to work in the 141 longer than he had, however. He liked his teammates, liked Captain Price and his funny moustache and strong leadership, liked Gaz and his like minded humour and youthful honesty. He liked the big, scary Ghost, even if he hadn’t delved as deeply into the mysteries of that man as he wanted to.
The skull was talking to him.“I’m not the grim reaper, you overdramatic wanker.”

Summary
Warmth filled his chest at the prospect of the future. Once he had thought the job was his life; probably because it actually had been. He had resigned himself to an early, violent death on a battlefield. Recently, he had started accepting the chance at the opposite.
Like the fresh buds on the trees rushing past the car window, Price felt a new start coming with spring.
Soap and Ghost are forced out of retirement when Price goes MIA.

Summary
“Johnny?” Ghost pulled off his gloves, kneeling at the bedside. He could feel the heat on his palm before he even made contact with the clammy skin. His fingers found the pulse point, and his own heart beat faster. It was weak. It was too damn weak. “Fuck!”
Within seconds he had scooped Soap into his arms and started practically running down the barracks halls. People jumped out of the way, faces shocked at the unusual sight. Murmurs drowned in the sound of blood rushing in his ears.
“Hang in there, Johnny. Stay with me now.”
Soap gets poisoned. Ghost takes it as well as you'd expect.

“And so, like I said,” continued Alejandro, eyes still sparkling with mirth. “Look after those two.”
“I’m not gonna play matchmaker.”
The very idea almost made him laugh out loud. Alejandro did bark a laugh, however, loud enough to earn curious glances from the other three men, who thankfully stood out of earshot of their conversation.
“Por favor no! Though that would be a sight, captain. I simply ask you to make sure they don’t accidentally break their necks on this,”
Price smiled as the rest of the team approached.
“I’ll do my best.”
Glimpses of Ghost and Soap’s relationship, from Price’s perspective, as everyone else clocks they're in love long before they do.

Ghost and Soap both survived the time loop... mostly unscathed. The mental strain and emotional fallout of going through something like that is a different story. Luckily, Johnny really cares about seeing Simon be okay.

Soap has been through a time loop and made it out on the other side, so when Ghost dies and wakes back up where his morning started it doesn't take much to guess where this all is going. It doesn't make him any happier about it, but he does what he does best and grits his teeth and pushes through.
