/ https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTY6fhhwd/ gaz is so pretty , that’s all .
/ i love his and soap’s dynamic sm , shame it’s not talked about more . i’m not an avid soapgaz shipper but i’m not against it either , just wish there was an active gaz so they could interact .
`` soap ? what's got you so upset , hermano ? ``
@lasforces at last , soap let out a deep-hearted sigh . eyes flickering towards the other as he attempted to rattle his brain to form words about what bothered him . “ alright , it’s.. about ghost i suppose . in a way . ”
`` I'm sure , hermano . I don't mind . `` he reassured , giving an encouraging , small smile .
@lasforces “ you sure ? i wouldn’t want tae force my own problems onto you . ” soap lips were in a permanent frown , his expressions tight from all the things rattling in his own mind right now . but at least alejandro was there for him , it felt.. nice in a way .
(SPIKY HAIR ONE), do not touch my stuff, and we won’t have any problems.
@outtahell “ we could still do that . if you’re interested . ” joking right back , now an impish grin was plastered across the scot’s lips— his energy as vibrant as ever towards others around him . it was no surprise with how friendly soap was that he often made friends easier than his fellow teammates (except gaz) . “ don’t tell him i said this but.. he’s a total softie all things considered . even let me see him without the mask before too . ” he whispered , smugness written all over his face . it filled him with pride getting closest to those who were more often than not highly closed off , maybe befriending another vaquero wouldn’t be too difficult to obtain either . “ i think i could fit that into my schedule.. it won’t hurt anyone tae do some city lookin’ . besides , i’m free right now if you’re willin’ . unless.. you’re busy yourself ? ”
“And here I thought we were going to— (run away together and frolic in a field of flowers)— I’m hurt.” Light joke but she cannot hide the way her eyes roll, turning to put her equipment so she had something to occupy her hands with. “Some of the hardened looking bastards are not as scary as they seem. I believe you when you say there is a side to him that others can’t get close enough to see.” Based on her short interactions with Ghost, the two seemed to agree on their preference for silence. Which she preferred. Quick to work, making moves in silence. “ I was going to offer taking you around to see Las Alma for real. Rather than stalking around base and seeing only one percent of what we offer. Though, I understand you are working on a time crunch right now.”
@outtahell “ muy divertido . (very funny) . ” he retorted back with the same amount of sarcasm , as soap’s arms then folded against his chest . those ever vibrant blue eyes focused solely on the other for right now , gaze beaming brighter than the sun itself . “ aye , promise he’s not as scary as he looks . once you get tae know him he’s a right bastard— in a good way of course . ” he could never get those god awful jokes out of his head even now , and they certainly didn’t stop even after escaping the streets of las almas after graves’ betrayal . “ for a few days at most . got a couple missions here so you might not be able tae see me as much . unfortunate as that is . ”
Heard a lot about you and your talents.
@7S2LIVE that brought a grin to the scot’s face , clearly pleased with the praise he was currently receiving . “ aye , of course . price has a keen eye even for an old man , but i assure you it’s for good reason as you can see for yourself . ”
With a hum, the man flips through a few pages. “Glowing recommendation from Price himself; if you can impress him. It won’t be hard to impress me, or let me down. I trust his judgment in people.”
' i swear , the MREs have more flavour than this british shi — oh , sergeant ! didn't see you there , sir . . . we were just complimenting the chefs' prowess . '
@LOYALMUTT lips formed a quick frown , hoping despite the homesickness runt would at least eat SOMETHING . both were soldiers after all , needed to collect as much strength as possible . but he couldn’t possibly blame the other either , he’s tasted better food at any nearby . “ traditional scottish meals and all that . been in our family for generations . promise it’s not shite like haggis or anythin’ like that , i’m sure you’d enjoy her cookin’ if ever givin’ the chance . ”
he scratched the back of neck and offered a strained smile , still at a loss for how to act after such a casual call out of his behaviour .
he nodded down at his plate , moving the veges around without much inspiration to eat it .
' everything tastes different here , even the shops outside base . . . what does your mum cook ? i'd kill for a hāngī ; meat , stuffing , veges , all cooked in a buried pit in the ground . pāpā , my step-dad , he makes the best hāngi . '
@LOYALMUTT soap could only nod his head in agreement , he couldn’t blame the other for missing food back home . he often did the same himself , nothing tasted better than his maw’s cooking . “ aye , i know how you feel . i tend tae get homesick every now and then , especially for the food my maw always makes . there’s nothin’ like a home cooked meal . ”
I’m not buyin’ it.
@BRAVO6D “ yeah , sounds like a logical assumption tae me . and considerin’ your old age it wouldn’t be surprisin’ for you tae be aff yer heid , sir . ” smiling as innocently as he could manage , johnny wasn’t about to give himself away— gaz included since they were both at fault for the ‘crime’ . “ as for who i’m protectin’ ? nae one , ky would never once do such a terrible thing tae our captain and neither would i . maybe it was.. simon ? he could’ve easily been sneaky enough tae take it from you . i’ve not once ever lied tae you , nor am i doin’ so now . ”
❪ID❫ ⸺ JOHNNY: @taskdemo ⌖ ⤷ j.p ❛͟ ❛͟ I LEFT MY GRANOLA BAR RIGHT ‘ERE. NOW YOU’RE TELLING ME I ALREADY ATE IT? WHAT AM I, SENILE TO YOU? […] SPIT IT OUT MACTAVISH, SLIMY BASTARD. WHO ARE YOU PROTECTING? IT’S NOT KYLE, IS IT?. ❜͟ ❜͟ john tries his best to keep a stern expression, for the most part it works. he’s inching closer to johnny’s face, grilling him for the goods. (he was slightly pissed, maybe a bit hangry.) he has half the mind to give the culprit bathroom duty.
“ oh. hey— i didn't know you were standin there. what.. did you see.ᐣ ”
@taskdemo “ just imagine those assholes bein attached to you, where you have to listen to them every single waking moment. ” ⟨ there was truly not a single way to describe what he went through on the daily. it wouldn't be understood unless the other went through it himself. ⟩ “ makes the world a better place either way man, or at least i think so. ”
@symbiotez “ probably better than on base or field . ” placing a hands on his hips , soap rocked back and forth on his heels a little . blue eyes seemingly keeping focused on the other(s) , perhaps his fear wasn’t truly gone but he’d manage . “ thanks . i like tae think i do the same thing . only just.. in a less violent way . sort of . if you can call bein’ the military as ‘less violent’ . either way keeps the world clean , right ? ”
@taskdemo ” yeah, don't we all. luckily i only gotta deal with one. ” ⟨ eddie was often more of the secluded type, but it truly felt like he was never alone because well.. he wasn't. wherever.. whenever the symbiote was always there. ⟩ ” couldn't be awkward if you were gone. but i admire your bravery. he isn't much to be afraid of as long as ya aren't some awful person. he doesn't prey on the innocent. so maybe in the long run he's kinda helpful. cleanin up the streets a little. ”
`` back already ? beginning to think you like being in here . ``
@stressmedic “ aye . i just LOVE the smell of stale air ! really beings me home honestly . ”
/ is discord acting funky for anyone else ?
... `` soap , mi amigo ! `` alejandro would call out to the other. `` feliz cumpleaños , hermano . ``
@lasforces “ me alegro de verte , alejandro ! ” the scot beamed , smile quick to etch itself across his lips without a second thought . “ thanks . glad you could make it , mate . ”
