    Summary

    “Steamin’ bloody Jesus,” Soap breathes. “How often does he do this?”

    Gaz turns, then, and meets his eye. “Us, and Price… We’re the only ones who’d live to talk about it,” he says. “It’s a last resort.” He reaches out, then, and puts his hand on Soap’s arm. “Being his handler means being the one to call the shots, Soap. We’re the only bloody things he cares about. Everything else is fodder. If you ever have to make this call, you better be damn sure you don’t care about survivors, because there won’t be any.”

    Price had been so eager to give the order. Imagine holding the nuke in your hands, knowing that you’ll be the only thing to survive its detonation. Imagine being Noah, but with the power to call the Flood whenever he wished.

    Soap shivers, something not altogether kind or good curling around his brainstem at the notion.

    Whether Gaz clocks it or not, he can’t say, but he eventually murmurs, “You’ll need a psych eval after this. We all get one after Ghost smokes out. Even him.”

    Soap frowns. “Why?”

    Gaz shrugs. “You’ll have to ask him. Personally, I think we all like it a bit too much.”

    Soap blushes, and doesn’t have the words for why.

    Summary

    “Kyle.” Price’s husky voice breathed out, he tiredly brought his other arm to wrap around gaz’ waist and squeezed ever so gently. “What you doin’ in my bed, Garrick?” He kept his tone light and teasing as the warmth of their bodies mangled together threatened to drag him back to unconsciousness. The body next to him squirmed and his head arose from John’s chest to eye his man-pillow.

    “Cap’n?”

    or

    both of them had taken a mandatory leave from base to give themselves a break after a particularly debilitating mission and decided to get drunk…this is the morning after.

    Summary

    He knew he’d never be able to give himself up completely as Soap did. Never would give into his wants, and certainly would never address them willingly.

    But he wanted to try.

    And that was more than he ever felt before.

    __

    Ghost finally puts a name to what he's feeling... or as close enough as he'll let himself.

    Summary

    A Modern day Merlin AU set at the University of St Andrews, featuring teetotal kickboxers, secret wizards, magnificent bodyguards of various genders, irate fairies, imprisoned dragons, crumbling gothic architecture, arrogant princes, adorable engineering students, stolen gold, magical doorways, attempted assassination, drunken students, shaving foam fights, embarrassing mornings after, The Hammer Dance, duty, responsibility, friendship and true love...

    This story was inspired by the thought of Prince William of Wales (and indeed the current Max von Hapsburg) studying at the University of St Andrews; it is also, as the title suggests, at least a little inspired by the operetta 'The Student Prince'.

    Grateful thanks to Lamardeuse and DarkEmeralds for Beta and cheerleading!

    ::2019 note: This story was written BEFORE the TV show introduced the character of Gwaine. It's not that I can't spell, or that I'm perversely writing him out of character - I incorporated other characters from Arthurian legend (Kay, Gawain etc) into my story, and lacking prophetic abilities, my versions naturally don't mesh with the versions subsequently introduced into the show.::

    Summary

    Waking up that morning had been a pain in the ass, and not the fun pain in the ass.When Soap woke up, he felt wrong.This tenderness, this soreness; it was all wrong. The heat in his body was wrong. The chill on his skin was wrong. He knew the morning would be a pain, but once he got moving it would be ok, right?

    Two idiots are in love and both think that the other doesn’t love them. It takes Soap pretending he isn’t sick for them to finally get their act together.
