Simon "Ghost" Riley looks like his father, and he hates it.
He hates the way his eyebrows arch, hates his nose, his lips, his fucking eyelashes. All of it.
He's honestly grateful for his compulsive need to wear the mask following his capture and the deaths of his family. When he wears it, he doesn't have to look at his father every time he looks in the mirror.
But then comes you.
You kiss his eyes, his nose, his lips, and you take picture after picture on the rare occasions he allows.
You run your hands through his hair, brush your fingertips over his hated features, and you look at him like he's the most beautiful thing in the world.
You spoil him with affection, mask or no mask, but the way you light up when he pulls it from his head and lets it fall wherever he drops it, exposing his face to you...it makes him start to think that maybe...
Maybe his face was okay.

You already know what this is
He’s going to be sick.Â
There’s so much blood. It’s on his hands, the ground, pouring from Manolo’s chest-Â
How did this happen? How did Tsukasa fail this badly?Â
He was right there. Manny was so close to him, practically in his arms!
But then-
Gods, what even happened? His mind is running so fast, he's not even sure he remembers. All he knows is one minute they were both fine, the next, Manny was choking on his own lungs.
Why him? Why the one person Tsukasa had finally started truly opening himself to? What kind of cruel universe gave him someone to love, only to take him away so violently?
The sound of Manolo gagging snaps him back to full attention. The man lying below him has little light left in his eyes. He wasn't going to make it, not even if Tsukasa ran as fast as he could.
So instead, he just gathers him in his arms, and pulls him close.
"I'm sorry," Tsukasa says, a sob breaking from his chest. "Manolo I'm so sorry."
His dying companion gasps, breath coming in broken wheezes. He mumbles something in Spanish, but Tsukasa can't really understand it. His words are too heavily slurred.
"I'm here," Tsukasa says, hoping to give him some comfort. "I won't leave you to die alone."
He shouldn't be dying at all.
A hand, shaky and far too cold, reaches up and weakly caresses Tsukasa's face, pulling another pained sob from the warrior.
Tsukasa leans down, pressing his lips to Manolo's. They're just as cold as his hand, and trembling slightly. Tsukasa can taste the blood splattered across them.
"Manolo I-"
-
His whole body jerks as he awakens suddenly, his breaths coming hard. Tears were in his eyes and pouring down his cheeks.
A dream? Had it really just been a bad dream?
Maybe he should check on Manolo, make sure the other man was alright. That would certainly give him some comfort.
He rushes outside, letting the cool air soothe his nerves and calm the nausea in his gut. It's late, everyone else has long gone to bed. Everyone but...
He moves without thinking, taking his steps quickly and without any hesitation.
Manolo turns when he hears Tsukasa approaching, smiling at him in the way he always does, whether he realizes it or not.
"Hey 'kasa, can't sleep either-" Manny's words are cut short when Tsukasa gathers him in his arms, pressing him as close as he possibly can.
"W-wha-"
Manny is stiff in his arms, but he's warm. He's alive. Tsukasa can feel his breathing, can feel his pulse thrumming under his skin.
He's alive.
How tall are your OCs? And Xenos as a hellhound?
Aurora is 5'6" (about 168 cm)
Xenos in human form sits snugly at 6'4" (about 193 cm).
In his Hell Hound form, Xenos can vary. At full size, he sits at a massive 7-7.5 feet (roughly 220 cm) from paw to ears. But that's a rare sight, and something only ever really seen in moments of pure necessity.
In worlds where he's a wolf-dog or German Shepherd, he's average sized, if not a tiny bit bigger.
Wow wow wow
Can you believe I wrote this in a month? 2023 was a weirdly great time for me productivity-wise
I love your OCs and their lore and everything! I feel really bad for Aurora, I hope she will find a future full of happiness.
And I wish I could cuddle Dog (as a wolf). I LOVE animals. Even if that animal would kill me lmao they're just so cute I can't help it <33
You mentioned Aurora does not have a preference in romantic partners; does that include the personality of her partners or does she have a type? Or maybe even icks and no-go's?
And what about Xenos (as a man ofc)?
"Oh! Xen loves to be snuggled when he's like that! He also loves it when you scratch behind his ears and rub his tum-" "Master, have you finally lost your mind?" "Maybe."
Xenos has never had a romantic partner in his canon lore, but that doesn't mean he isn't susceptible to it. He doesn't really care what you look like or what your gender is. He and his master both have some pretty big personalities, though, which can be hard to handle, so you'll have to be able to deal with the amount of sass being thrown at you from all angles. Plus, being a Hell Hound, Xenos is guaranteed to outlive you.
Aurora doesn't have a gender preference, but she does have a type. She needs someone who, in her words, "can keep the fuck up" with her.
"My master struggles with accepting love and care." "Watch yourself, dog."
Aurora likes people who show up when you need them. People she knows she can call at 2AM trusting that they'll answer. She needs someone reliable, and who can hold her together when she starts to break apart. That doesn't mean they have to be physically strong or exceptional, they just need to be patient. And understand that with her comes her pain.
She does not tolerate anyone who is abusive in any way, shape, or form, nor does she handle cheating of any kind very well.
Will you be doing a continuous of ukyo seeing his wife again after 3 years of isolation 🥹
I'm adding it to the list!
You have been working so hard lately.
*Offers a warm cup of tea and a chocolate cake with a bit vanilla ice-cream on top*
Here, have a moment for yourself to enjoy, breath and embrace the fact how many people you have made smile and experience emotions through your writings.
Thank you and I wish the day treats you kindly ♡
brb i'm gonna eat my cake and cry in the corner
Writing for everyone has brightened my days a lot recently, I'm really happy everyone has been enjoying them so much and been so kind to me.
Getting to write Stanley crashing out in the newest chapter of To the Moon and Back was more fun than it should have been.
The realization I had that since the American colony is somewhere in Northern California they might have access to wild-growing cannabis plants
Has me laughing
So hard.
Stanley doesn't just have tobacco in those cigarettes. That's why he's so chill all the time.
