Summary
While stuck in port for repairs, the crew of esteemed pirate Captain John Price's vessel keep themselves busy with a variety of activities. For one John 'Soap' MacTavish, this includes accepting a contract to hunt down a ferocious sea monster referred to as "The Ghost", which seems to have an insatiable taste for human blood and a horrifying skull face that drives survivors to madness. Soap manages to injure the creature during a storm, but can't quite make the killing blow before it slips back into the abyss from which it came.
But when he finds it hiding in a cave to nurse its injuries, he learns that the Ghost is more than just a ravenous, mindless beast, and he has to make an important decision: complete the bounty and get enough gold to cement himself as one of the greatest pirates of all time, or betray his found family and side with a known killer.

Summary
So yeah, its not like Chris doesn’t know that a lot of people think Buck and his dad have something there. But the opinions of strangers and jealous boyfriends is very different to that of their two closest friends. He’d always assumed that if any of those assumptions had even an inkling of truth that his dad and Buck would have acted on their feelings by now. It’s been nine years for heck’s sake!
To think that there not only might be some truth to it, but also that he was the main reason they haven’t done anything about it makes Chris feel… well he’s not quite sure what it makes him feel, but it sure isn’t good.
Chris’s crutches clack softly on the floor as he paces, mind reeling with half-baked thoughts, unsure which emotion he should focus on right now. He settles on determined.
If he is the reason his dad and Buck are not together, he can fix that. Yeah, he can totally fix that… he just might need some help
_
OR Chris overhears HenRen suggesting he is the reason Buck and Eddie won't risk making a move. So he decides to do something about it.

Summary
Ghost is haunted by visions of the fated omega he’d rejected years ago whilst on leave, intent to live his life without ever seeing him again.
When Soap joins the 141, Ghost is hellbent on suppressing his inescapable attraction to his omega, and the unstoppable mating instincts overcoming his senses.
That is, until he very much isn’t.

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 Metherland

Summary
Soap does his research whenever he encounters something strange. By his best guess, with what little he knows of Simon's bloody and fraught history, and from observing Ghost, he thinks he's dealing with a doppelgänger. A manifestation of something darker, a little more alien, forged when on the very edge of death, half a soul lost to the afterlife while the rest remained to power its human body, doggedly forcing itself to survive.
Depending on the culture, doppelgängers are either a ghostly mimic, or a manifestation of a spiritual twin - able to share memories and feelings, but often bringing bad luck or representing the 'evil' side of the person it haunts. In some cultures, this spirit is not malicious, but more often than not they are frightening, and cause distress to the victim of their mimicry as well as those around them.
Personally, he doesn't think Ghost is inherently malicious. He doesn't go out of his way to cause Simon trouble, or behave in any way that feels out of character for Simon aside from his Otherness, which isn't something he can help. Animals sense oncoming rain, liminal spaces cause an instinctive crawl of fear beneath the bones, and Ghost unsettles people. That's just the facts of life.

Step One: Lie. Step Two: Regret Everything. by Neomorise

Summary
Simon "Ghost" Riley is adjusting to civilian life after being honourably discharged, recovering from nerve damage, and barely leaving the house. He didn’t mean to lie. He just wanted Price to stop hovering like an overprotective mum. So when asked if he was seeing anyone, Ghost blurts out a lie to shut him up: he has a boyfriend. Problem solved – until Price invites said imaginary boyfriend to Christmas dinner.
When Gaz hears about it, he immediately calls bullshit. And then decides to step in to help.
Enter John "Soap" MacTavish: Gaz’s childhood friend, chaos incarnate, and a civilian working in private security who loves a good disaster. When Gaz asks for help, Soap agrees immediately. Pretending to be someone’s boyfriend for a holiday event? Sign him up.
Ghost expects awkward dinners and limited contact. What he gets is text messages at midnight, inside jokes, Soap knowing exactly how to help without being asked, and a growing problem: this was never supposed to feel real.

Summary
But Ghost didn’t seem to mind, quietly filling the kettle before setting it to boil, those dark eyes watching as John paced the kitchen, one arm flailing about in the air, the other locked tight around his half-melted pint of rocky road.
He told Ghost he was stressed. That the entire MacTavish clan was coming into town, which meant awkward hugs, judgmental stares, and nosy questions from people he hadn’t seen in years. John could handle all of that, he really could.
But what he couldn’t handle was the questions. Why he hadn’t settled down yet, why he didn’t have a nice Scottish girl on his arm.
Why he wasn’t married with a child on the way, because Ethel and James weren’t getting younger, and John was already too old. For fuck’s sake.
“Maybe I don’t want to bring home a wee lass,” John had snapped, voice cracking as he dug his spoon in harder than necessary, a brown, congealed clump of freezer-burned rocky road flying onto the floor. “Maybe I don’t even like women, has anyone considered that?”
And there, in less than twenty words, John had completely outed himself.

Summary
It's a Thursday evening, at the end of a 24-hour shift, and Eddie is in the bathroom at the house brushing his teeth when Buck leans in the doorway behind him and says, "I'm going to take a shower."
It's such an ordinary thing to say–Buck says it five times a week, minimum–except that Eddie's brain snags on the tik tok video from a few days ago, and his mouth moves before he thinks better of it.
"Information or invitation?"
He says it in the exact tone of someone delivering a punchline, light and a little teasing, clearly expecting Buck to groan at the callback and go shower alone. It is a joke. It is absolutely, entirely a joke, and the correct response from Buck would be a tired chuckle.
Buck doesn't laugh.
He meets Eddie's eyes in the mirror, something shifting behind his face, and says, "Invitation."There is a silence.
It's the kind of silence that Eddie can feel on his skin, that is doing something specific to the air between them, and he watches his own face in the mirror very carefully and does not turn around.
------------
Or: A buddie fic inspired by the tiktok "information or invitation?" shower trend.

Summary
For a long time, the 141 has been exclusively birds.
This isn’t by design; a lot of those that choose to go spec ops are birds, or particularly well-suited breeds of dogs and cats, the occasional mustelid and, for one particular mission where they’d had to house a foreign unit, a very inconvenient bull. Usually, though, it’s animals that are good in small groups as well as large ones, groups that can form flocks and packs and colonies, respectively.
They are a flock, mismatched and odd though they are, and Ghost has always assumed that, should they welcome a fourth into their unit, for a trial run or otherwise, their prime candidates would be other birds.

Summary
MacTavish blinked, did a double take at his phone, frowned deeper, and—
“Ghost?”
“Who d’you think?” Ghost replied, exasperated, and there was the sound of him rummaging about down the phone— “have you seen my lighter or not?”
or— a series of phone calls while they’re deployed apart
