    Summary

    “Simon?”

    Simon slides a book into place before turning around. The man in front of him is lean, worn thin, with bags like dusky thumbprints beneath his eyes. He’s swallowed by the massive black hoodie he’s wearing, his hands wedged deep into his pockets and his shoulders hunched.

    For reasons he cannot begin to understand, Simon wants to crush this man into a tiny ball and then shove him into the mouth that gapes, screaming, around his own starved heart.

    He doesn’t do that, obviously. He’s on the clock.

    Or: Ghost loses his memories and falls in love with his husband, again.

    Summary

    “You don’t want me to hurt myself?” he asks, twirling the knife between his fingers, allowing it to scrape against his knuckles. Soap sighs in one heavy, fell swoop, and slowly lowers himself to his knees about three feet away from Ghost, as if getting on his level will calm him. Ghost feels his breathing slow and ignores it, forces himself to pant and whine again, because he wants to be panicked, he wants to be hurt.

    “Simon, honey, come on,” Soap murmured, low and soft, words just for them and Ghost snarls, teeth bared. He doesn’t want Soap to make him feel good. “Just give me-” Soap begins and holds his hand out for the knife that Ghost is embarrassed to say he’s losing his grip on; he doesn’t think, only knows that this knife is all he has and that he doesn’t want Soap to touch him and that he wants to be big and mean and scary like everyone else finds him, everyone but Soap and Price and Alejandro and Rudy and Gaz, wants to see them side eye him with fear and concern like they used to, wants to hear them all, from where they’re stationed in the abandoned gym, watching them, fall silent as death when he turns the knife on himself.

    “You don’t want me to hurt myself?” he asks again.

    Summary

    A beat. The line goes completely quiet for a moment. “Repeat that, Serg?”

    Soap groans lowly, pained. “Ne’ver got out from.. under ta buildin’. I don't know which side ‘am on.”

    Dead silence. He can't even hear them breathing. Soap panics, managing a small, embarrassingly, childishly afraid sounding, “Cap’n? Lt? Gaz—can ye ‘ear me—”

    “You’re still in the building that collapsed?”

    Summary

    An ongoing series where two touch-starved men figure out how to take care of each other in ways that no military field guide ever covered. Thankfully, when you already trust a person with your life, letting them see you at your most vulnerable isn't nearly as hard as it sounds.

    Non-sexual intimacy, physical touch, a little angst, and a lot of comfort.
