midnight thought:
bear Price x cub Soap
big hairy man and his big-ish fuzzy boy
evil hands, hella sus.
is it you? are you the one planting the Ghoap thoughts in my brain? some kind of gay fanfic telepathy?
are you plotting my demise, waiting until my brain is overloaded with fic concepts and spontaneously combusts?

... I got my eyes on you (¬_¬)
you right. more fic good. always need more fic.
very much appreciate the cheering. <3
(If only I could focus on one story at a time xD)

(I'm starting to wonder if they're called plot bunnies because they breed so quickly 🤔 )
...and here's where I run outta steam.

[there's a lot of stuff i like to keep flexible for AU purposes - like what year he was born, if/how his face is scarred, the age difference between him and Tommy, etc - so all that's left out]

but uhhh yeh. Ghost headcanons 💀🎉
- he's actually rather tactile, but the prolonged touch starvation makes even casual touches difficult for him

- he's undeniably some flavour of neurodivergent

- he's fine with drinking but never lets himself come anywhere close to being drunk; also has fairly high alcohol tolerance
- every time he's forced to take leave (off base), he visits his family in the cemetery; sometimes he spends a few hours there talking to them, or simply just being with them

- (He feels guilty - feels like he's talked to them more since they died than he ever had when they were alive.)
- he's rather gifted when it comes to his ability to pick up on foreign languages
-- using the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR): level C1 in Spanish, B2 in British Sign Language, B1 in Portuguese, French, Italian and Romanian, A2 in Russian and German, and A1 in Arabic
- he's gay; doesn't struggle much with internalized homophobia since there's a lot that ranks significantly higher on his list of reasons to hate himself

- he's somewhere on both the aro and ace spectrums; even if he were aware of this, he couldn't be arsed to find any particular label
- he doesn't know if he's a dog person or a cat person - he likes them both but has little experience with either

- he's arachnophobic; nothing to do with spiders, it's scorpions that he has issue with

- his name on official file is listed as Ghost Riley; few know his actual given name
- he's a millennial

- his birthday is 26 October (for astrology nerds, his sun sign is Scorpio)

- he hates both Halloween and Christmas and will keep as busy as possible during those seasons

- his favorite time of year is spring; lucky bastard doesn't have allergies
random ghost thoughts / headcanons no one asked for-

#ghostcod #simonghostriley

- his mum was Irish; she grew up in England, but would spend summer holidays in Ireland with her father's extended family

- his mum was seventeen when he was born
cackling at the thought of drunk Gaz on a kids' leash.
sometimes i get annoyed with myself for adding tags like. in whatever i'm saying
but there's a character limit so it just. makes sense, right?

still looks hella cringe to my brain but that guy's an asshole so
I mean, how many ways can a bro write two idiots falling in love?
there's gotta be a limit here somewhere

(there isn't, I'm doomed.)
these are just the ones I've moved to ellipsus.
there's uh. several more.
brain will not quit it with the plot bunnies.
...I have no self control
too many #ghoap AUs send help
brain is fuzz and refuses to focus
have some more rando snips from the meddling 'verse
Ghost being so excited is ridiculously cute. that's not a dragon, that's a puppy and I love him
crying bc i love him <3
yes. perfect additions. you so get it.
Shut up Soap is just. Peak Angst.
physical torture? he's got training for that.
psychological torture? harder but he's got some training for that too.
he'll live or die trying.

but the onslaught of emotional hurt from being told to shut up by someone he loves, who he hopes loves him? unbearable.
meanwhile Ghost and Bucky are just trading war stories
'cartel hung me from a tree with a meat hook thru my ribs'
'soviets made this whole evil dentist's chair to fry my brain'
'i was buried me alive'
'i was on ice between missions. for years sometimes.'
and they nod at each-other in solidarity
the whole time I was making this, the idea of winterhawk meeting ghoap was simmering in the back of my mind

Clint's disaster self is somehow disarmingly endearing. Ghost wouldn't stand a chance
Soap would work his charm on Bucky
Both Clint and Soap are *so* ADHD coded and things will end up on fire
