Summary
"I want to try something."
Soap looks up from the deck of cards he'd been absentmindedly shuffling on Ghost's desk. His hands freeze mid-shuffle, fingers suspended in the air, an edge of hesitation flickering across his face. There’s curiosity, yes—but it’s tainted by something darker, something he’s not sure he’s ready to confront.
"You want to try something?" Soap repeats, brows furrowing in confusion.
Simon stands a few steps away, arms crossed tight across his chest like a barrier he’s trying to fortify, eyes locked on the floor. "...Yeah," Simon mutters finally, hesitant. "Something... new."
Before Soap can process it, Simon’s hand is on his chest. Johnny doesn’t pull away. He doesn’t say anything. He just stands there, letting Simon ask for permission with silence, letting Simon touch him without saying the words out loud.
But Simon’s breath hitches the moment Johnny doesn’t step back. The flicker of tension that runs through his body is unmistakable. His pulse stutters, heart racing as if it’s trying to outrun the wave of panic building inside him. This isn’t how it’s supposed to go.

Summary
Tyler, a freshly graduated meteorology student, is starting his first year with StormPar, chasing tornadoes and gathering critical data. His mission is dangerous and deeply personal.
He's determined to unlock the mysteries of these violent storms, but his plans are completely thrown into chaos when he's forced to team up with Joshua Dun, a brash Twitch-streaming storm chaser known for his reckless antics and his self-proclaimed title of "Tornado Wrangler."
Tyler can't stand Josh's flashy, attention grabbing style, while Josh finds Tyler's meticulous, science driven approach infuriating.
They’re both determined to prove the other wrong. But as twisters touch down and close calls mount, the dynamic between them begins to shift. Hatred gives way to something quieter. Closer. The friction that once sparked arguments begins to ignite something else entirely.
And in the heart of the storm, nothing stays the same.

Summary
All of Dema was watching him. Not a single television set was off, even if it wasn’t actually being watched by anyone. The Bishops were watching him act like a fool in the security of their respective towers. Each of them smiled to themselves, knowing that their good will was underway.
They had revised every single aspect of this show, down to the most minute detail, to make sure Clancy couldn’t step out of line. It couldn’t happen again. Another insubordination and he’d secure a ticket to a fate worse than he could ever imagine. Nico would make sure of it. After all, he was but a revered shepherd trying to guide a lost sheep back home.
Meanwhile, Clancy, cold and wet from the snow, prayed for a god, any god, to smite him down.
Or Clancy is a pop star in Dema, and Torchbearer tries to rescue him.

Summary
“I... I don’t know if I can be fixed, Simon.”
Ghost tightens his grip, his forehead dropping to rest against Soap’s.
“Then we’ll stay broken together, Johnny,” he murmurs, the words a quiet promise. “Just don’t leave me. Please.”
Soap hesitates, his eyes glistening, before he nods slightly. Then more firmly, until he’s sobbing into Ghost’s chest.

Summary
"Your brain is beautiful. Horrible, terrible, but beautiful." Ghost murmurs.
Soap blinks up at Ghost through half-lidded eyes. There’s something warm in his chest at the words—not quite comfort, not quite affection, but something close.
"Aye?" he whispers.
Ghost nods slightly, watching the way the dim light catches in Soap’s tired blue eyes. He taps ash from his cigarette, considering. "Yeah. The way you think—it's like... a car crash I can't look away from. Somethin' wrecked, somethin' that shouldn't still be movin'—but it does. And it’s..." He trails off, expression turning fond but teasing. "It’s kinda stunning, in a fucked-up way."
・・・・・
Or, John sees his pain reflected in Simon, and they decide to hold each others hands to the bitter end.

Summary
“Two guys walk into a bar,” Ghost says.
“Not in the mood,” Johnny growls.
Silence.
“The third ducks.”
“Bleeding Jesus, Ghost,” Johnny mutters.
“Why don’t dinosaurs talk?” Ghost asks. He rocks back on his heels, face still pointed upwards.
“I’m not doing this with you,” Johnny says.
“Why don’t dinosaurs talk, Johnny?”
There’s a perfect stream of water falling off the ends of a branch a few yards off. It’s making a tiny pond in the forest floor far below, a pond that is slowly swelling out of its banks and turning into a river, trickling through fallen leaves and bracken. Johnny stares at that, refusing to meet Ghost’s eyes. He’d swung his gaze around to look at Johnny, head tilted slightly down, eyes glinting light through the darkness of the mask and greasepaint. That look turns Johnny’s spine to jello, breaks down his resolve and makes something dangerous warm in his stomach. He doesn’t know if Ghost is aware that he does it, if he knows how fast Johnny’s resolve crumbles at that look.
“Why don’t they talk, ye fuckin’ bobber?” Johnny says through grit teeth.
“Because they’re dead.”

Summary
There is nothing grounding him, nothing that keeps the voices out. No direction but forward. No direction but Johnny.
The last thing Ghost sees before crashing into Soap are his wide, crystal blue eyes and his mouth opening, not quickly enough to get anything out except for a strangled "Ghost-".
Their bodies connect with a shock. Ghost was prepared for the impact of body against body, the sudden heat and the pressure on his skin that felt grounding despite the pain. However, he didn't anticipate the crack of lightning rushing through his body the moment he touches Soap.
It shocks him right to his very core.
Ghost has long escaped his imprisonment at Roba's, most of his traumatic experiences burrowed deep in the most hidden corners of his brain.
Why is it now, with Johnny getting closer that he's plagued by nightmares and flashbacks? There is something special about the man, something scary... What is it Ghost doesn't remember?

Summary
“He promised,” Simon gasps, voice wrecked and half-muffled by the floor. “He promised me, Price. Said he was fine. Said he was—said he was trying.”
The words run dry again, replaced by a terrible silence—only broken by the uneven pull of Simon’s breath and the low hum of the barracks’ heating unit kicking on.
Price lowers his head, jaw clenched tight enough to ache.
“I know,” he says, nearly a whisper. “I know, son.”

Summary
Ghost finally understands why he's seen so many soldiers count down the days until leave. As he looks at Soap, looks at where they are, what they're doing, how far they've come—when he looks at all of it... he gets it.
Of course, the flip side of leave, means that there's far too much free time to think. This, for Ghost, is something he's dealt with over the years to little success. But when he's got Soap, the good far outweighs any of the bad. The bright days outshine the hard nights. And the things that haunt them, even half a world a way, fade into the background.

Summary
Somewhere, in the arid Sonoran desert, a small town that didn’t exist was being haunted.
Ghost owed his existence to Manuel Roba, and he was going to pay that debt owed in kind. And so he becomes a vengeful spectre, a puppet of Santa Muerte, and the doom for the Zaragoza cartel and all it stood for.
A rewrite of Ghost's revenge on Manuel Roba and a larger look into where he could've gotten those guerilla warfare skills from. This popped into my head a while ago, it's pretty much going to be Ghost wrecking shit for a couple of thousand words to help set up the larger work I am slowly writing.

Summary
Ghost’s been here before. Many times. After the worst flashbacks, he ends up in front of a mirror, staring into his own haunted eyes, a gun trembling in his hand. The barrel pressed against his temple feels like the answer, but he can never pull the trigger. It should be easy—his training taught him to shoot without hesitation. But when it’s his own life on the line, his finger freezes. He can’t explain why. He doesn’t want to think about it too long.
Some nights, he whispers to himself. Pleads.
“Please… please, let me die. Please.”
But the cold steel always slips from his grasp, landing on the counter.
