Summary
Johnny had given up on his dream of going to art school early on — with his conservative parents and non-existent support system, he’d settled for doing whatever his family wanted him to.
His best friend, Simon, had other plans.
“You can come live with me.”
“Yeah, right, sneakin’ into yer military home is such a smart idea.”
Simon paused, having the sort of brilliant idea that would make Johnny scoff. Sure that they could pull it off.
“Marry me. The army gives free housing to serving soldiers and their families.”
Their fake marriage was a gateway for very real feelings to blossom, though, even through the difficulties that life put in their way.

Summary
Simon is blinking sleep out of his eyes, and as he watches Johnny, a part of him is utterly convinced that he is still dreaming.
He’s naked, all tanned skin and pink, taught scars. The sun caresses his body like a lover, up the knobs of his spine to the shadowed silhouette of his face. His hair’s a mess, and he’s turned just so, where Simon can see the side of his head, where the shaved part of his mohawk has grown out to a downy fuzz. They’re still in that halfway point between night and dawn, where the beginning of the sunrise leaves everything in faint grey-scale.

Summary
John “Soap” MacTavish never meant to come out as bisexual on national television – it just slipped out during a post-match interview. Overnight, his rugby stats take a backseat to accusations of queerbaiting, invasive questions, and endless speculation.
Enter Kyle “Gaz” Garrick, an old mate from school, now in the military and schemer extraordinaire. His solution? A fake boyfriend. Someone private, unreachable by the press.
Someone like his lieutenant – Simon “Ghost” Riley. Luckily, Ghost owes Gaz a favour. A big one.
It’s just meant to be a few quiet photos, some social media buzz, a bit of smoke to keep the wolves at bay. But as the season wears on and the fake relationship starts bleeding into quiet nights, real texts, and barely-there touches… Soap starts to wish it were real. And Ghost – Ghost stops knowing where the act ends and something real begins.
What starts as a cover story slowly becomes something neither of them know how to fake anymore.

Summary
On a routine op, Ghost disappears. They come after him, of course, but he’s nowhere to be found, with not a shred of evidence to say where he is— only a six year old who looks suspiciously like him, who insists he’s Simon Riley.

Summary
Warmth filled his chest at the prospect of the future. Once he had thought the job was his life; probably because it actually had been. He had resigned himself to an early, violent death on a battlefield. Recently, he had started accepting the chance at the opposite.
Like the fresh buds on the trees rushing past the car window, Price felt a new start coming with spring.
Soap and Ghost are forced out of retirement when Price goes MIA.

Summary
Soap has found everything he ever wanted within Task Force 141. People he could trust, a second family, and even somebody he could love (even if just one-sidedly). He was prepared to share his biggest secret with all of them, he trusted them not to judge him. However, before he could summon the courage to do so a mission goes horribly wrong and Task Force 141 has to deal with the fact that they possibly lost Soap forever.
Two years after the tragic mission the Task Force saves a dog-wolf hybrid during a raid on accident. Said canine gets attached to them instantly, especially to Ghost, who never recovered from the loss. The wolfdog goes back with them to base and while his behavior is strange at times, he may be the best thing that happened to the team in a long time.
And they have no idea how true that really is.
WolfShifter!Soap-AU with lots of angst, emotion and a happy ending, just how I like it.
