Summary
Going after groups of people hunting non-humans is the norm for Task Force 141, a unit who made it their specialty. This mission just happened to go a bit more tits up than usual.
None of the members had expected that this time, the supernatural being rescued was none other than Simon “Ghost” Riley, an old acquaintance of their Captain, and now a fellow team member and superior to Soap... much to his dismay, as his attraction to the man is unmistakable. Little does he know, Ghost himself doesn't care much for rules.Series

Descent Into Perdition by dreamsofspike

Summary
After the Apocalypse... isn't, the angel and the demon choose their faces wisely and successfully protect themselves from future reprisals from their respective Home Offices. But Crowley takes it a step farther. He can't help exacting a little well-placed revenge on the archangel who made his angel's life miserable for so many millennia. It's just a little intimidation, scare tactics, a touch of humiliation to remind Gabriel not to mess with them.
If Crowley'd had any idea how far it would go... the damage and destruction that would grow from his brief moment of triumph and satisfaction... he'd never have done it.
But it's too late for that now, isn't it?

Summary
Soap is a PhD student, doing his research in Antarctica on the behaviors and hunting habits of leopard seals. During his expedition, he becomes obsessed with a leucistic seal, who he's taken to calling Ghost.
His attempts at tagging Ghost for tracking purposes have all failed, leaving Soap frustrated, but determined to try again. He won't stop until he gets the data he needs for his dissertation.
At the same time, Soap is stuck in an escalating, heated flirting match with a hydroponics employee at another base. It's foolish to form romantic relationships with someone he knows will vanish from his life once their expeditions are over, but there's something fascinating about this man that he can't ignore.

Summary
Cut and Come Again: A method used to repeatedly harvest from a single plant over an extended period of time rather than harvesting, and therefore killing, the entire plant at one time. This is done by regularly harvesting only the outer leaves and leaving the inner leaves to continue growing.
Ghost gets up and dusts off the dirt clinging to his knees; Mr. Todd might be generous with the estate, but it was still private property.
He starts walking over but he’s not halfway to the oak tree when the stranger stands up with a frown on his face. He puts his pencil between his teeth, his sketchbook under his arm, and then proceeds to try and step into the cluster of honeysuckle that surrounds the oak.
“Oi!” Ghost barks without thought.
The man flinches and freezes, wobbling on one foot, the other is poised dangerously over the greenery.
If this stranger crushes so much as a single bloody leaf, Ghost will end him.
