    Summary

    Soap sighs through his teeth. “Said I’m no sure who I’m bringin’.”

    Ghost tuts, endearing and mocking at once. “Got no pals, Johnny?”

    The words leave his mouth before he can stop them. “I’ve got you.”

    Something clicks over the other end of the phone, sounds like a lighter, and Ghost draws in a breath. “Yeah.” He hums. “You’ve got me.”

    Soap and Ghost attend a wedding together, unearthing months of pent-up yearning.

    Summary

    “Do you want to end up on the floor, sergeant?” Ghost asks calmly. 

    “Is that a challenge, sir?”

    And the second those words leave his lips, Ghost is bending down, pressing one shoulder into the crook of John’s knee, and forcing the smaller man to fall on his back. Ghost stays knelt down, satisfied with the takedown.

    “I guess that was a promise,” Soap says sheepishly. One leg is still stuck up on Ghost’s shoulder, his other leg bent and pressed on the other side of the lieutenant. 

    Simon is trapped between Johnny’s legs. 

    Both men are still for a moment too long.

    Or, the one where Soap takes challenging Ghost a bit too far, and the closeness of sparring awakens something between them.

    Summary

    There’s a quality in Simon’s voice that John’s never heard from him before, but that he’d recognize anywhere. It’s the tone his niblings use when they aren’t sure if they’ve done something wrong. The hesitance he hears from another vet who isn’t sure if the story they’re about to tell is appropriate for present company because no one really debriefs you from a life of violence and killing and casual dark humor to a life without it. The sound of a man burned and turned away so many times that he never had a chance of discerning what he’d done wrong. The sound of a man who, nine times out of ten, was manipulated into thinking he was wrong in the first place.

    The sound of a man who desperately needs a safe place to land, but only ever found it in bits and pieces if he found it at all.

    --

    After over a decade apart, John and Simon find safety.

    Summary

    Ghost has been able to read minds for as long as he can remember. At 15 he finally learns to control his power, he turns it off mostly, tired of the vicious, unkind truth of humanity being hurled at him every moment of the day. At 16 Simon shuts off his power completely.

    The first and only time Ghost loses that control starts in the Humvee (and ends in Soap's bed).
