The situation is made worse by the fact that Prime’s Special Ops are known to disappear people, seemingly at a whim. There are whispers that the Cybertronians are looking for someone… or something.

    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.

    Summary

    "Ye ever heard of a whalefall?" Soap asks. Ghost nods. "Big carcass, settlin' down in the bottom of the ocean, and all these other things get to feast off it. Don't care where it swam, how old it was, dinnae even care what it's made of 'cept meat." He takes another drag, down to the filter.

    Ghost hands his over, doesn't even think about it until he sees Soap's lip close around the shine of his own saliva. His breath hitches, riveted beyond belief. "Kinda makes ye wonder, ye ken? If there is God, and He's off doin' whatever, what might come in and feed off what He left behind?"

    Things evolve to feed. Hunger is the oldest emotion there is.

    Summary

    “Would you come with me?” Simon asks quietly.

    “Where?”

    “Back out to sea.”

    A sharp needle of pain zips up Johnny’s earlobe at his words. He winces, features pinching, but he doesn’t wrench himself away like he would have done before. Johnny lets Simon hold him, leans into the familiar chill of his fingers, hoping it’ll chase away the throbbing pain.

    Johnny laughs through it. “I doubt yer captain would be all that welcomin’ of a siren aboard his Jolly Roger.”

    The crease between Simon’s brows smooths out. “But if he was?”

    Johnny smiles sadly, watching the way Simon’s eyes glint with that pirate greed. That hunger.

    Simon is a fool. A sweet, kindhearted, gentle fool of a man and a shitty excuse for a pirate. The thought makes Johnny’s heart clench painfully in his chest.

    “Aye,” Johnny says, meeting Simon’s eyes. “I would.”

     

    OR: The countless times Johnny unknowingly aids a pirate captain, and one time he saves him.

    Summary

    Ghost was a werewolf shifter of Task Force 1-4-1, and Johnny MacTavish was the man brought on board to hold his leash.

    There were never any bindings placed on him. Never ropes, nor sedatives needed. No shock collars or cattle prods. It was just Soap.

    Just Johnny and the way he had Simon, even as a towering monster with gnashing teeth and flexing claws, wrapped around his little finger.
