[   satisfied with ghost's reaction,   he opens his gift.   a wide grin on his face.   ]   simon,   i'd love anything you got me and this ..   this means a lot.   means i won't have to rely on just ,,   my drawings.   [   a chuckle escapes his lips,   showing it to him despite ghost being the one who gifted it to him.   ]   would it be cheesy if me to carry this in my pocket?

@specgru,     [     he eyes the box,   letting his guard down just a bit before he lets it back up.     eyes soften when he opens it.     ]     this what you call just nothing ?       don't know what that makes my gift.      [    said gift is a photo card of the two of them.    ]

[   with sparkly eyes,   they trade boxes.   he's too excited to care about  simon's gift,   at the moment.   ]   it's nothing—   big really.   i just really liked it when i saw it.

@AU-K0RTAC,    [    he reads between the lines,    amidst the fidgeting and native language.     leaning back a bit,    little annoyed with the height difference.    ]      yeah.    didja want me to toss it or somethin ?     it could sell for millions.

@allurehope,     [    as he grabs it,    it's recognizes it almost immediately.    attentive to every blade he own no matter how many.     ]      usually don't miss vital organs,     guess ‘m losing my edge.

sharp edged,  slippery slope handle,  stabbed into the heart of the enemy.  almost the heart,  anyway.  * she offers it to ghost,  her gloved hand loose on the knife.  oddly relaxed,  *   here.

@allurehope,    which ones you find ?     

@specgru,     miss you too.    but chin up,    if we're lucky we'll be paired together soon enough.     [    gaze flicks up between his hands and johnny's face,    he’s never been the best at focusing.    ]

i miss you.   maybe ..   i should ask to see if i can get our workload reduced.   'm tired of staying late and falling asleep somewhere random.   [   johnny notices the little action,  the corner of his lips turning into a frown.   ]

@specgru,      can't have shit in this life.     [     said with a sigh.     directing his frustration to begin picking at bite ridden fingertips,    skin torn to raw nubs.      ]

@specgru,     you will sooner or later.    i’ll get a bet going.     [    applying the rubbing alcohol to the pad,    gently dabbing it into the cut.     ]      if you're not licensed,    don't wanna hear it.     [    a kiss is placed on the corners of johnny's mouth.    ]

pretty innovative huh,   surprised i haven't died from my own bombs.   [   gently,   johnny shrugs off his sweater,   holding out his arm.   a small smile on his face.   ]   i still think it would have been fine ..   but i'm not a medic so i wouldn't know.

@specgru,      in a world gone to shit,     you would still find the stupidest way to die.     [     small squeeze is given.      the touch reassures him of the moment,     that he is currently alive.     he hopes it stay that way for a long while.      taking out a small bottle and cotton pads.     ]      show me your arm,     love bug.

@specgru,     think my first impression of you was that    ...    you're annoying as dick.    but cute.     glad to say it hasn't changed   —   even through a near miss with death.

i love you too,   loved you since you waited for me.   maybe even longer ..   nearly dying brings a lot of emotions to the surface.

@specgru,     you're too good to me   —    for me.      your standards are terribly low and i love you for it.

was that an order or an ask ?

  ✶      ..       RIGHT THEN.    TAKE A WALK WITH ME,   SINCE YOU’RE FREE YEAH?

@Bravo6d,      [    ghost is known for being blunt,    but he can't exactly out right say price makes him sick.     in that childhood sense of longing,    sick.     another secret he’ll take to the grave,    he thinks.     ]     negative.    just been preoccupied.

✶      ..     YOU CALLIN’ ME LAME SIMON?  OUCH.  (he would huff out softly, a hand would raise to his chest feigning “hurt.”)   MEET ‘EM SOMETIME,  THE KIDS.    THEY’D LIKE YOU. 

@Bravo6d,      they got one thing right,    am helluva lot cooler than you.    [    smile breaks out under the pretense it won't be seen.    the knot in his chest gives way to slight relief.     glad someone like price had something so tender.     ]

@inkgnito     ✶      ..     YOU’D   BE    A    GOOD    DAD,    I     KNOW     IT.       (a soft chuckle escapes the captain at thought,   mini little riley’s  running around? funny.)    IT   WOULD    BE   ONE   HELL    OF   A    THING   T’    SEE.    .    GOTTA   SEE   MY    KIDS    SOME   DAY.    I’VE   SENT   PICTURES   OF   YOU   IN    YER   BALACLAVA,    SAID    Y’    WERE    COOLER    THAN   ME  . 

haven't even done anything ..    you seem like the type of guy to get pissed at anything though.

@sovspies,    sure it's nothing we can't work out.
