    Summary

    From experience Soap knows that the less sleep he gets, the more he talks. And he knows that this can be a little overwhelming for the people around him. It hasn’t been much of an issue since he was selected to the 141, but on his previous teams he had been told to shut up or bug off more than a few times. So, usually, when he gets to a point like this, and someone tells him to shut up or go away, he doesn’t take it personally. Because he knows everyone is as stressed as he is, and everyone works through that differently. Soap knows he gets even more talkative than usual, that he needs company to be around to not get lost in his head. But he also knows that others need quiet.

    aka: Soap gets told he talks too much. He gets told that he always returns from missions with some kind of injury. So they give him the easier part of accompanying the hostages to the extraction heli, to keep him from getting hurt again. Of course, that doesn't work out as planned and Soap doesn't tell anyone.

    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

    Soap’s heart clenched painfully another time.
    He had hoped that it could become more, just like he had hoped that the 141 could become more, but he was fucking stupid.
    He was a soldier, easily exchangeable for the team, and he was, if anything, a friend with benefits, for Ghost. Easily exchangeable as well.
    “Price’s wounded, Johnny. Gaz’s right, just keep your mouth for one fucking mission.”

     

    A version of the "They tell Soap to shut up and he does at the wrong time"-trope.

    Summary

    Buck has a guilty pleasure. Something that no one knows. In the darkest hours of the day, when night bleeds into morning, he strips and dons on his dress.

    It's the same routine, perfected over months, until one day when his door swing open and Eddie walks in.

    -

     

    "You came to my house and I was in a shirt and my underwear," Eddie shrugs.

     

    "It's a babydoll dress," he hisses.

     

    "And you're the prettiest babygirl."

     

    Buck moans.

     

    He can't help it. Not when Eddie's weight is pressing down on him, his eyes staring so intensely, every spoken word sending electric sparks jolting through him.
