Summary
“Second time in here this week.” The sheriff regards him from under the brim of his hat, thoroughly unimpressed. “Thought I made myself clear the last time. You got cotton between your ears, boy?”
“Seems so,” Arthur says and spits a globule of blood onto the floor.
Arthur's become somewhat of a regular round the Sheriff's office in Valentine.Bookmarked by nalgaflacida

Summary
There’s a teddy in Soap’s bed; a beaten-up, old brown bear. Well-loved, if the state of the fur is any indication. Ghost lets out a choked laugh, mostly at his own expense. He wishes he was there, suddenly, wishes he was by Johnny’s side as he walked through the doorway and realised that his childhood room was waiting for him like a time capsule. Wishes he got to see the embarrassed scrunch of his face, the way the tips of his ears would flush red.
Soap has a whole second life, outside of the SAS. He’s got a mother, and a poorly-decorated bedroom, and a bear. All Ghost has is a flat that will be the same it is today as it will be the day he dies, like he was never even here at all.

Summary
He pictures the funeral sometimes.
He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.
He pictures swallowing them himself.
Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.

Summary
Four years after Hassan, Ghost and Soap have become the most effective duo in the 141, completing missions with brutal efficiency and a higher rate of success than any other special ops team (bad jokes and nonregulation banter included). Despite Ghost's insistence on maintaining professional distance, their closeness on the battlefield has gradually led to true friendship, and if Johnny sometimes wishes for more, that's nothing compared to knowing he's Simon's favorite person. Everything is as perfect as it can be when doing the kind of work that leaves them with ragged scars - mental and physical - and blood on their hands.
But nothing lasts forever, and when military politics threaten to break up their team, Simon and Johnny must decide if they want to stick with the comfort of their status quo... or risk losing what they have for the possibility of more.
A series of connected, slice-of-life stories set to the background of the various couches Simon and Johnny encounter in their line of work.

Summary
He wades in it now, eyes still open, fixed on the speckled ceiling, begging himself not to crave bomb blasts and artillery fire in his childhood bedroom. Although…there might be something beautiful about it all, Johnny supposes, those noises in the thick. The gasps in between discharge that say: I’m here, I’m a part of this song too.
After a near-fatal injury, John MacTavish finds himself back in his hometown in Scotland. Fresh off an untimely discharge, he's forced to cope with disability, his dysfunctional family, and the lingering knowledge that there are some things he's just not ready to leave behind...
