Summary
Soap notices that Ghost always smells of lavender, and seems to have an aversion to certain deodorant smells, and he sets out to figure out why. Along the way he changes his own deodorant and finds out that that gesture means a whole lot more to Simon than he could ever have thought it would. He learns more about his Lieutenant in the next few months than he has in the last nearly five years of working with him, finding out why such a small gesture meant so much to him and getting to know every part of Simon, the good, the scared, and the ugly.

Summary
Ghost breaks into a random house to hide from the men chasing him and threatens the poor girl with a gun to her head. But she barely reacts, blinking slowly as she takes him in, and Simon thinks how he truly despises indifference. So the apology that built on his tongue dies down, and instead he—
Stays.
He plays house, poking around to see what would break her, but she just takes him in like one would a stray, and feeds him. It isn’t love and there is no concern in her eyes whenever she watches him, but Simon is too entranced to ever leave.
(That’s how Simon ends up with a wife. Or something.)

Summary
A simple task, an easy task. Infiltrate the castle of Old Scotland, get close to the King. Kill him. One simple job Ghost had performed dozens of times before on plenty of innocent nobles. Dangerous given the rank, but a worthy risk for the reward of freedom. Instead, he became the personal guard of the man he was supposed to kill. It put more eyes on him than before, and made his job infinitely more difficult. As if trying not to fall for the man he was being hired to kill wasn't enough to deal with.
Soap knew ruling Old Scotland in his parent's stead was going to be difficult, but he was not prepared for the looming threat of a neighbouring Kingdom proposing war. Discovering the truth of his parent's deaths, and the real identity of his new personal guard was going to become far more difficult.

Can two busy soldiers navigate their love aside work? Sure. They just might have a wild ride.
Ghost and Price will demonstrate for the group.
(Aka. Ghost and Price discover their love for eachother and now have to figure out what they can, want, or need to do.)
Can be read as a sort of prequel spoiler thingy for my other fic, "How did we get here, Johnny?", but will be written as a stand-alone.

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.

Summary
You survive a bombing in Belfast and are pulled from the wreckage by Ghost. Fractured, unreachable, and unwilling to step back into the light, he drifts through your life, refusing all rescue or healing. He never makes you his exception or softens himself for you, and keeps every wall up, even (especially) when he’s in your bed.

Summary
Soap barked out a short laugh. He kinda did expect something like that, but it still felt a bit surreal and therefore funny to him. He always liked absurdist humour, after all. His Lieutenant is now some kind of traumatised hermit, living in the cabin in the middle of the forest. And like that wasn’t enough, he had Bastard the cat and Terror the dog to accompany him. Just… wow.

OR Soap gets isekai'd into the world of zombie-apocalypse horror. There he meets Ghost, who has spent four years in that place, and is traumatised to hell and back.

Summary
Simon was really trying to be into it, but it was a struggle. He kept feeling his hands on him, not Johnny’s. He felt like he was back in that god forsaken alleyway. He didn’t feel safe when usually Simon did feel safe with Soap. But god he couldn’t shake this feeling. All of his walls went back up and he froze up.
Johnny must’ve noticed his shift in demeanor since he spoke up asking, “Si? Y’okay?” He looked worried. He was always so considerate.. and always looking out for people. Of course he’d notice something was wrong.
Simon somehow managed to unfreeze himself and immediately pushed Soap off of him, pulling up his pants, fumbling with the buckle, “I have to go,” was all he announced before he walked out the door.

Summary
Simon exhales sharply through his nose, dragging his gaze back to the ceiling. “How bad?”
Johnny tilts his head, assessing him. “Could be worse. You got caught in the blast, took some shrapnel. Doc said you were lucky—couple inches to the left, and you’d be down a kidney.” He hesitates, his frown deepening. “Scared the hell out of us, mate.”
Simon hums, the weight in his limbs making it impossible to do anything more. He’s too exhausted to argue, too drained to tell Johnny that he’s not worth the concern.
Not that it would matter.
Johnny wouldn’t listen anyway.

Summary
"Everyone was allowed their obsessions in life. Sports, TV shows, model tanks. Something that sparked their passion, captured their attention - something that got them through their mundane life, elevated it.
For some, that was other people. Like those sweet old couples who have been together for seventy years and yell at the other for using the last of the mayo. Or the single mother working three jobs to make sure her kids have something to eat.
It was the same deal for you, only … a little creepier.
You weren't some wacko stalker, okay? If anything you were the one being stalked."
You're a hired gun, and you have a shadow.
