   Summary

   "Eadar nithean matha" - Soap never learned much Gaelic, but he can say one thing with complete confidence: between good things is where Ghost belongs

   “I belong nowhere, Soap. Belonging is reserved for things that are wanted, so where does that leave me?”
   “Eadar nithean matha, Simon. You belong between good things.”

   or: the fic where Konig joins Task Force 141 and Ghost flees, having decided that facing the mortifying ideal of being known by another is far too harrowing, and that it was due time someone more deserving took his place. Soap and Konig bring him back, and prove that Ghost belongs between good things -- whether it's them or all of 141.
