Johnny sitting there all bundled up with two cups of tea (one for Ghost once his zoomies are over) smiling all soft and sweet as he's watching Ghost!

Also- my dog used to barrel straight into us when she had her zoomies - did Ghost almost mow Soap down before, you know, being massive and all?

Thanks so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Aw, thank you! :)

After a while Johnny starts seeking out Simon by himself before things get too bad. He doesn't have to speak, simply bringing the pack of increasingly beaten up looking felt tip pens to Simon is enough for Simon to make time for Johnny and their shared little grounding ritual.

despite everything.

Over short or long it always ends up helping.

And the more they do this, the faster Johnny calms down, often falling asleep on the couch next to Simon.

way he smells, the warmth of his body, the calm his entire being radiates, his breath slow and steady, Johnny mirroring it subconsciously. Having his hands occupied while Simon puts on the TV or, on very rare occasions, reading his book out loud to Johnny if things are going from bad to worse

is finally quiet enough to form coherent thoughts again.

He can drink some water, have a snack and then, if not sleep, at least rest.
They continue doing this, it becomes a routine after missions or whenever Johnny is anxious and restless. The close proximity to Simon, the comfortingly familiar

unable to eat, drink or sleep.

At some point Simon sits Johnny down, tosses him a pack of cheap coloured felt tip pens and orders him to colour his tattoos.

It takes a while but once all of Simon's half sleeve (and a bunch of blank skin) is drawn on, Johnny settles. His head

Ghost would never live that down!
Like, he could win gold or something and Soap would go like "Congrats but anyway, remember the time you got stuck and I had to rescue you--" :')

Bonus points if Ghost smokes while spreading his legs and ordering Soap to fuck him like he means it

People, kneeling when you're tired and want a break, kneeling after you feel and make sure you're not hurt. Just kneeling.

Now just I imagine this huge, scary snowboarder getting stuck in powder snow and Soap pissing himself laughing before helping to dig him out. Ghost will never live this down

-Getting stuck on a straight piece of track and ending up waiting until someone with skis tows you to safety (the next hill) or just walking yourself
-getting stuck up to your knees in powder snow and having to dig your board out (it takes very, very long)
-kneeling. Kneeling when waiting for

It is! Also, lots of random falling over going from standing up straight, no movement to face first in the snow if you suck at snowboarding enough (which i do)
Other things that are very much not a problem Olympic athletes would have but I very much do so I make it my blorbo's problem:

Gotta love the age old "at least I do a sophisticated sport" - "at least I can walk in my boots once I get off the board" argument ksjjssj

Aw, look at them being in shrove (Shrimp love)!
