Summary
“Have you talked to Price at all?”
Soap sighs and smooths a hand through his hair. “No, I haven’t, Dinnae even think th’ old man would want tae talk ta’ me.”
“You don't know that”
Gaz was right, He didn't know. But his words did little to soothe Soap's contrasting belief.
“What about Ghost? Haven’t seen you guys talk since the mission”
Soap scoffs, “He’s even worse, prob’ly hates my guts, Gaz”
--
Or, Soap and Ghost facing the difficulties of retirement, family, communication, and love affairs.

Summary
Soap paused, picking up the pen. He looked over his list. Three columns, “yes”, “no”, and “maybe”. He pulled the paper close. Hesitating, he underlined a single item, then crossed out the rest of them one by one. When he finished, he looked back at Ghost, as if daring him to say something about it. When Ghost didn’t, Soap pushed the paper over, crossing his arms over his chest.
Underlined was “kneeling” under “yes”, the only thing left on the page. It didn’t matter what the other “yes” items had been, they were very clearly in the “no” column now.
Ghost forced himself not to feel frustrated, had to admit to himself that Soap might be the most challenging sub he had ever had assigned into one of his units.

Summary
He never gave it much thought. Stories are stories. He lives in the tangible world, where things may not always be what they seem, but looking closely always reveals the truth.
Soap still isn’t sure why it happened the way it did.

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.
