Summary
After a mission gone wrong leaves Simon “Ghost” Riley deaf in one ear and Johnny “Soap” MacTavish with a permanent leg injury, both men are forced into early retirement. Soap uses his pension to buy a crumbling house on the edge of a quiet town, determined to make something of it, even if the place looks like it should’ve come with a tetanus shot.
Ghost shows up with a duffel bag and his usual scowl, moving into the guest room to help with renovations. Between faulty wiring, leaking pipes, and a fridge that seems to growl at two a.m., the two of them fall into a new rhythm of grocery runs, hardware store trips, and late-night fixes. The banter is sharp, the silences softer than either expected, and somewhere between the broken walls and peeling paint, they begin to rebuild more than just the house.
It’s a story about finding purpose when the battlefield is gone, about healing old wounds in the comfort of shared domestic chaos, and about realizing that sometimes “home” isn’t a place, it’s each other.

Summary
Soap's ma wants nothing more than for her son to find a wife, start a family, and be happy. The only problem? He's already found love in the arms of another man. Maybe it was a bad idea bringing Ghost home to meet his Catholic mother. Maybe he would regret this for the rest of his life. Or maybe, just maybe, it would end up being the best mistake he ever made.

Summary
It’s only now that Soap realizes the skull isn’t that– a skull. It’s a mask. There’s skin around the eyes, stained black with grease paint. There are flashes of pale pink as the gloves tear at the black fabric underneath the hard-plated skull, the same tone as the exposed forearm.
It’s not even a skeleton. It’s a man. A dead man.
Soap is haunted. A strange, horrified figure of a dead man won't leave his periphery-- and it seems to want something. If he wants to fall back into any semblance of normalcy, he'll have to deal with this specter hands on.
As things turn out, aiding the dead may be more complicated than he'd thought.Bookmarked by imeos98

Summary
“Spit it out, Kate,” he says flatly. A pain he keeps locked away is on the cusp of sneaking through the cracks of his mind.
She says something then, clearly wanting to get this over with. Something absurd and horrible and cruel. Simon can’t breathe. His ears ring. He stands up in confusion, disbelief. He’s so sure he misheard, he had to have.
“What,” he breathes out. It can’t be true. He saw the bodies. Tommy by the door, his mum slung over the counter, Beth on the couch covering Jo’s dead body. “Laswell, repeat.”
Laswell replies, but Simon can’t seem to focus anymore. He can’t feel his fingers. Why the fuck can’t he feel his fingers? “He’s alive?” He hears himself ask over the sound of his heart pounding.
“Yes, Simon, Joseph’s alive.”
OR
Months after the murder of his family, Simon finds out his nephew is alive and in need of his help. Spurred by his brother's final wishes, Simon takes time off work to help Jo, but finds people trying to help him too. Specifically, John Mactavish, a friend of Price's. A very kind, handsome friend. Simon can't keep his eyes away, but he has to; he has a kid now, and besides, he can't be- He's not gay.

Summary
"Let me prove it to you. Please." Roach says. His voice is small, and he's not even sure that he can prove it.
"How do you plan on doing that?" Ghost's irritation is obvious. But Gary has to try.
Gary motions to his left arm. "Let me?" He asks, holding his hand out with his palm up.
Ghost looks to Soap. What exactly was this guy trying to do? "It's alright, Lt. Just let him try." Soap says with a small smile.
Ghost obliges, setting his left wrist in Roach's hand and looking back to the man before them. Roach softly pushes his sleeve up, searching for some semblance of himself in the dark ink that swirled around the forearm of the tall man.
He stops and smiles widely, holding back the tears of relief that threatened to spill. "There. That's me- I'm in the tattoo!"
OR
Roach has been having nightmares, the kind that remind him he shouldn't be alive. But one day he wakes up in a place tha is all too familiar, but all too different. Simon is alive. So is John. But they don't remember him. He has to prove it.

Summary
Soap remembered being elated, no matter how much Ghost—Simon—had physically changed, the only thing that mattered was he survived—survived and alive (technically not in the regular sense of ‘alive’, but at least Ghost was up and about again) . Even though he didn't look as human as before, he was still Soap's lieutenant, Ghost.
.
He was so deep in the trance that he almost didn't hear the footsteps coming from the stairway outside of the room they were in—those steps sounded far too careless and scattered for them to belong to humans. Bucking his hips forward, he grunted deep in his throat, breathing through his nose as he felt Alone Ghost was twitching inside him.
He tapped onto Alone's shoulder silently, and it seemed the creature was already aware of their unexpected guests as he began to growl threateningly, all sets of eyes darting onto the opened door. Soap needed to only use one of his guns, and by the sounds of it, there were possibly only two to three zombies, and he ‘tsk’ed, cracking his neck as he swiftly pulled his G17 out of the holsters, flipping the safety off, and aimed at the door.

Summary
The hand on his nape gently scratched into his scalp before he felt a calloused palm running down his bare neck beneath the shirt collar—sending goosebumps all over his body. His breath hitches when a thumb pressed into his collarbone, gentle but firm.
“Shit, you’re fucking burning.” He heard the guy say in the next second; his husky voice, so calming, instantly relaxed him despite how bad his headache was. He wanted to say something in response, to tell the Shadow that his head was hurting like shit, that he wanted to vomit, and wanted to go back to his living quarters, craving the comfort of his bed, but to no avail since he couldn’t muster the energy to say it aloud.
So he mumbled it into the Shadow’s chest instead, though incoherently so.
“Shhh,” the Shadow cooed softly into his ears, with a hand combing through his hair repeatedly. The sudden urge to tear up hits him out of the blue—he had never let himself be this open and fucking vulnerable, letting the ‘Commander Graves’ mask peel off so easily to expose the real ‘Phillip Graves’ beneath all the strong suits that he always wore around his Shadow soldiers.

Summary
Simon is missing. It’s been eleven months since he vanished completely on a mission in the London Underground, and although the rest of the team has lost hope, Soap hasn’t. Ghost is out there– of course Soap isn’t happy about being sent away to his cabin in Scotland on leave when he should be out there looking for his Lieutenant.
Just to his luck, an excitable crow with a unique and unnerving interest in Soap keeps him occupied.
or
Soap dies. Ghost fixes it. An unhealthy amount of magic, hijinks, and heartache ensues.
