    Summary

    Ghost has been hard at work tackling his aversion to touch since the 141 came together. He’d been irate the first time Soap and Gaz tried casually throwing an arm around him. He had felt repulsed, nauseous, scared…

    Warm. Comforted.

    It took him a few weeks to admit to himself and his therapist that physical touch was a love language he has been severely starved of.

    Thankfully it’s a language that his squad is annoyingly fluent in. More often than not he loves being close to his team now.

    Only Soap has this strange ability to make him crave more, though.

     
     Featuring Ghost with a PTSD induced temperature regulation issue and Soap, who wants nothing more than to be used as a personal heater.

    Summary

    “Missed me,” Ghost crackles in his ear. Warm, teasing. A tone that Soap is almost certain is reserved for him.

    Soap scoffs. "Prove it."

    “Aw,” Ghost tuts. “Don’t trust me?”

    No one I trust more, Sir. He doesn’t say it. Not that he isn’t sure Ghost already knows; if he’s even half as inhumanly perceptive as everyone gives him credit for, then he has to know, has to feel that tangible presence orbiting between them. (The direct acknowledgement of this entity feels too unshakably taboo. A point of no return that takes the shape of something gnarly; a feral elephant in the room that threatens to maul one or both of them down if addressed.)

    “Bastard,” he grumbles instead. Wonders if his voice is as thick with affection over the com as it sounds spoken aloud. Would it matter, if it was?

    Summary

    john mactavish, prince of diplomacy and youngest son of the highland king, has never once left the walls of his castle. when political tensions with the lothian borders force his father to send him south as royal envoy, john is certain he can manage the journey alone. his father is equally certain he cannot, and assigns him an escort — one simon riley, the marquis's most trusted knight, an englishman in scottish service with a skull mask, a lifetime of bad experiences with noblemen, and zero trust for the privileged son of a highland king who has never once had to earn anything.

    they despise each other almost immediately.

    but the road south is long and the forests are dangerous, and somewhere between a bandit ambush, a small inn, and the sight of wounds that should have been treated weeks ago, john starts to see past the mask. and simon starts to see past the carriage.

    Summary

    Before the bullet, they didn't have a name for what they were. Defining a relationship in the military just wouldn't do. So, Simon and Johnny never talked about what they were, or what they could be if they ever made it out alive.

    But then, perched on the small hospital chair, Simon felt like Atlas with the world on his shoulders, capable of carrying whatever Johnny placed there.
