#Gaz and Soap especially

[ghouljams]

I do wonder who the rest of the 141 and kortac would be, but I do have some ideas:

Price: Athena (I at first thought Zues, but he'd never cheat on his wife. I just can't see it) Goddess of wisdom and war strategies cause it makes sense. If not Athena, then I could see him as Demeter cause I have Goose brain rot, and who says Ghost only gets with Prices daughter in one universe. Like Demeter Price and Persephone Goose with Hades Ghost just makes my brain purr. There's also just the thought of Price on his little farm harvesting and growing plants after the horrors of the Titan War. He grows sad and cold when his daughter leaves but understands she just wants to be with the one she loves. Maybe he, too, could find a lover to warm his home.

Ghost: Hades cause of the above post, though whether or not he kidnaps her or she just walks down there grabs him by his neck and marries him is up in the air. If not Hades, then probably Hestia just cause the image of this 6-foot heavily scared man being the god of the hearth, home, virginity, and guardian of the flame of olympus makes me cackle. Plus, I saw a head cannon where Hestia gave up her seat to Dionysus so she wouldn't have to be olympus's therapist anymore, and yeah, Ghost would do that. And yes, he abstains from sex cause he's traumatized, but that doesn't mean he can't have a companion. Or this one's on the nose, but Thanatos, plus him getting trapped in a box and having to be rescued, makes me cackle too.

Soap: Apollo god of the sun and creativity because he's good with his hands, and I always saw soap as a guy with a sister who loves his mom. Plus, the angst of Apollo soap never getting requited love is ooph. He's just very passionate and often times that leads to his lovers getting turned into plants. If not him, then Hermes or Dionysus could work, too. I could see him being Dionysus and giving people who piss him off madness. And just throwing great parties, if he does take Hestias seat and becomes olympus's new therapist, he'd definitely open a bar and make fancy drinks while listening to people's troubles.

Gaz: Nike just cause if Price becomes Athena, then Nike is Athenas companion, and Gaz is Prices companion. If not Nike, then maybe hear me out, but Ares (who canonically has a pretty boy face under his fearsome mask) cause, let's be honest, Gaz would steal your girl with a smile. I could also see Ares Gaz as the protector of women and very respectful of them. He still will use his good looks to get them in his bed, and because of that, he has so many daughters. He becomes thee girldad by accident. And if not either of them, Hermes cause trickster god of messages who is best friends with Apollo soap makes sense for him too.

Laswell: Either Hestia or Hera and if she is Hera she's definitely plotting to murder her husband and marry her wife.

Nikto: Hephaestus

Konig: ngl I struggled with this one, but hear me out, Dionysus konig. Dionysus is interesting cause he's the god of wine, parties, madness, and rebirth. And while you could say konig couldn't be Dionysus cause he has anxiety, I would argue he still could be, but more so as someone who watches over and plans parties. He just brings the wine to get the debauchery started. Voyeur könig anyone? Also, a lot of Dionysus's riuals and sacrifices are very bloody and involve dismemberment. Dionysus can be a very scary god when he wants to be, and I like that about him. Plus, just imagine him and Ariadne with the "you dont like the murder" sound. As for anyone else, he could be idk, maybe Artemis loner, goddess of the moon, and the hunt. Could definitely see könig Artemis snipe perverts and protect virgins.

Kruger: Eris goddess of chaos cause why not. If not Eris, then hear me out he's one of Aphrodites kids (not Eros, cause I like to think Eros is Hephaestus Nikto and Aphrodites love child). But he could def be mania and is constantly giving Nikto problems because everyone goes to him cause they know Aphrodite reader won't punish him properly. She's a gentle parent, though that does mean her kids aren't disciplined correctly, but thankfully, only Kruger gets in trouble. (I also thought of this cause of that one fanart where Nikto leaves Kruger with the 141, and they call Nikto to come pick him up)

Horangi: I also struggled with him, too, cause I'll be honest. I don't know much about him besides him being a konigs friend. But when I think of him, I could see him being either Artemis, Thanatos, Ananke, greek goddess of inevitability, or if you're feeling adventurous, Posiden. He could also be one of Aphrodites kids but one of her more chill kids.

So for the most part I want to keep Nikto in his own au mostly so I can use/abuse the other gods without worrying about my own headcanons for them.

that said :eyes: at Goose as Persephone... I was going to disagree with you on Ghost being Hades but you have persuaded me with just that concept alone.

Here's the problem is I think I could make a solid argument for Ghost to take the place of multiple gods because his character can be interpreted so many different ways. I am so desperately begging people to pitch me Ghost doing things other than mask/skull/violence when it comes to aus.

Anyway I'm just going to be talking about gods under the cut, rambling if you will

Price as Demeter I sort of fuck with severely, not as a god of plenty but as a god of famine and loss. Willing to take away family and fruit in equal measure if that's what it takes to do his job. There's something very "every greek god is a god of war if you piss them off enough" about Demeter that speaks to a slow death, a rapid but lengthy decline. The crops wither and the livestock dies. Your children insist on joining the war, you receive only their letters until the letters stop coming, you know that you've displeased the gods but you cannot say how or why.

On the other hand, Price is an exceptional tactician and would kill as Athena. He's a warrior but he's a smart one, doesn't tend to rush into things, instead he holds his soldiers back and tries to play things by the book, until he can't any longer and must take action into his own hands. Athena is a great fit for him and a role that would be easy to slot him into.

Gaz I also love as Athena though ugh. I could also slot him into Apollo or Helios just for the irony of a man who's fallen from a helicopter twice being forced to cart the sun across the sky. Lots of jokes to be made there. I will say that when I was first thinking about the hephastus!Nikto au I slotted Gaz into Ares' space, but I don't like the idea of Gaz spreading rumors that he's sleeping with poor aphrodite, because it feels mmmmmoderately out of character for him. I think he's more in line with manipulating you into his arms rather than straight up lying about sleeping with you. This man doesn't have to lie about having you in his bed, he'll talk you into it.

Lemme hit you with this one: Gaz as Artemis. The sniper skills would transfer beautifully to a hunter god, and I like the idea that he's so busy with his work he's just never had a need to find a lover thus earning him the title of "virgin god"

Alternatively: Hypnos. I like a man that visits me in my dreams, and I could probably write a whole book about Gaz playing both savior and boogey-man to a poor sleepy thing that just wants one night not being visited by haunting visions.

Soap as Apollo, yeah... yeah accurate. I can't really place him well anywhere else. I think there's already something exceptionally golden about him that translates well to Apollo, and you're right about him having terrible luck in love. An Apollo/Daphne retelling would be right up his alley.

I think my other pick for him might be Ganymede. Not a god per-se but in this au we'd count the cup bearer as a god. Just the idea that he's so pretty the king of the gods swooped down and snatched him up just to make him his personal boy-toy? Soap would be so down. He'd be salivating for the chance.

Ghost as Hades but not because of the skull imagery. He's a lonely god, relegated to the underworld because he doesn't like the big and flashy, and only showing up to events when he has to because he doesn't like the crowds. He prefers being alone after being crammed in his father's stomach with the rest of his siblings, has gone through hell worse than any of the new gods can imagine, growing up within the bitter sting of acid and the childish pleas to just let him die before he grew up and realized no one was coming to save him, and the best he could do was find a way to live with the pain. The burns still cover him, seared into his skin so that he never forgets the agony of digestion. His aversion to eating is less noticeable when he's around the dead, when the most he can stomach are fruits and bread, the other gods feast on fat and meat. And well, he just can't do it, not when he's smelled his own flesh burning.

(and of course he's shocked to find precious Persephone insisting that they marry when he's sure that he'll repulse her once she finds out what he is beneath the mask and heavy robes. More so when she breaks into his house and tells him she's staying.)

Hestia though??? Oh baby you're cooking with gas. He wants nothing more than to stay out of the politics of god-hood. And you're right I love making Ghost anxious about sex because of his own assaults.

However Laswell as Hestia??? The ceaseless watcher, privy to conversations mortal and divine because there's a hearth in every home, in every bedroom on olympus. She knows all things and keeps the information close until she can use it. Not the virgin god that mortals think she is just because she's never laid with a man, after all her wife keeps her more than satisfied...

Nikolai as Poseidon perhaps. Another old god, but this one eager to explore the world, eager to lap his waves against virgin shores, if you know what I mean. He's not looking to rule the gods, but that doesn't mean he isn't a force to be reckoned with. He'll take whatever offerings he's given, meat, wine, women, men? Just leave them on his shores and he'll find his way to them eventually. There may be a string of broken hearts in his wake, but who would dare try to hold onto the ocean?

And I suppose Konig as Dionysus maybe? I think the madness he inspires is a good fit, but I don't see him as particularly social so partying is fairly off the table. Also I don't think the rest of the gods would like him enough to give up a seat for him lol. The voyeur aspect is incredibly tempting I will give you that. I could make it work, but only because he's such a blank slate.

The rest I don't write for and don't know well enough to comment on, sorry!

Soap narrates every football match the 141 watches exactly like this and it’s where 90% of Ghost’s knowledge of Scottish slang comes from

[meralasan]

Gaz is finally getting the attention he deserves 😌🫶

and this time I didn't even have to crop it for tumblr! that's a success, right? ... right...?

[nouns-are-bad]

Soap has one really sharp canine, the other one is kinda chipped short but still sharp, all of his teeth are sharp actually,

He bites someone on a mission to catch them off guard and gets his hands free, he ended up taking a chunk out of the guy

When at exfil the rest of the 141 stares at his bloody face in shock and surprise

“What? Never seen how worse my bite is than my bark?” And soap laughs at them as he gets onto exfil as the rest of the task force is standing there staring at each other

Ghost swears up and down he did not get horny from that but soap begs to differ

[myfamilycrestisthedemonofdeath]

Because the start of Pride month is also my birthday, and I also haven't stopped thinking about it, I'm celebrating my ass with this.

Maybe a younger-looking f! reader gets flirted at in one of the bars you visited and the 141 men are jealous for a different reason.

~~

Let's say that you wanted to go out with the 141 men for drinks but because of previous problems with other men, you decide to maybe dress up like a man to not get bothered. You got a tight tank inside a loose shirt, maybe one of Gaz's caps you borrowed (begged until he gave it to you) pulled low on your head, some baggy pants and whatever oversized army jacket you find, and when you look at the mirror, you look passably like a boy pretending to be an adult.

The men, most likely Johnny and/or Kyle, tease you for your look even if you retort that it's for your comfort. John probably crinkles his nose a little as he tell you that you didn't need to do that as they are there to stop those sort of interactions for you, with Simon humming in agreement, which is great and all but they can get very suffocating in their protection.

So you all get to a nearby bar that has a decent number of people in it; a lot of folks trying to escape the boring humdrum of life by spicing it up with some liquor. Men and women alike all staring once you all walk in, not that you think they are staring at you, more than likely staring at your companions who are definitely impressive.

Big, muscular men towering over your form, concealing you from most eyes, which you are thankful for. Social anxiety is a big problem for you, and being in the limelight does you no good unless it is among people you know.

Simon probably buys the first round, while you all cram yourselves in a booth or a corner with a view of the entire place, just as a habit. Most of the people's interest and wayward stares towards your group dies down unless one of you stands up to grab another round of drinks.

On your turn to grab the drinks, you end up next to a woman by the bar stools, after more folks come in and crowd the bartender. You recognize her as the "pretty lass" Johnny had heavily gushed about, making him take a lot longer in grabbing all of your drinks, and the one Kyle had striked up a conversation too on his turn, trying to charm her with his pretty eyes.

As you wait for the bartender to be free for your order, the woman strikes up a conversation with you.

"You don't look old enough to be here in this bar. Is the mohawk and his group your brothers?", she inquires with a smile.

"You can say that," you say, adding, "although he is definitely adopted".

She giggles, and you sneak a glance over to your group to realize that they are staring at you two, Johnny frantically waving and motioning for you to get her number, pointing at him and audibly mouthing "please please please". Kyle's shaking his head trying to stiffle his laughter, and John and Simon are both looking on in amusement.

"Well," she says, "adopted or not, you all look very handsome."

"Thank you, you look very beautiful too," you shyly reply, because what are you supposed to say to a compliment like that?

The bartender finally approaches you two, and they take one look at you before asking for your ID, which you sheepishly provide. The woman beside you introduces herself as Rebecca, giggling all the while the bartender checks over your information. You hear squawks of laughter that you recognize as Johnny, and as you glance back at them, you see Kyle and him exchanging money.

"Bastards took a bet on me getting ID'ed," you mutter under your breath as you get it back and order your round of drinks.

"You should spit in their drinks," Rebecca suggests. "Or I could do it for you if you want."

"I dunno, they might like that and think of it as a reward," you snort. "They might bother you more now that they see you talking to me," you add.

"Hmmmm, I might just have the idea to mess with them then," she says, and beckons you a little closer with a conspiratorial wink.

"Let's hear it," you say, but then you are taken aback as she holds your face and gives you a kiss on your cheek, and multiple more all over your face. Your eyes widen in shock, mouth opening in surprise at her. She giggles at your reaction, still craddling your face in her hands.

"Oooooh, my lipstick looks good on you," she says, smudging some of the marks on your face.

"I-I'm a girl," you stammer out, feeling a little light-headed and out of breath, as you hear the bartender approach with your ordered drinks.

"Oh, even better," she purrs out, before pulling your face closer to hers, but this time, planting a kiss right on your open mouth, not even hesitating to reach her tongue out to yours.

Simon says it was probably about 10 seconds of kissing, before she pulls away, writes something on her napkin and hands it to you before sending you back to your table with your drinks. You don't remember, brain shutting down as soon as your lips touched, just knowing she had soft lips and that she smelled great.

You barely register Johnny and Kyle clammoring over you and fussing that you got to their choice first. What you do notice is when John and the other two give Simon some bills, as you just barely hear Simon's whisper, "Told ya she'll get someone still".

[deadunderorbit]

Once again crying because of the height differences between Soap and any other tf141 member

[milkydough]

Ghost finds a kid during a mission and instinctively brought her back to the base. Price wasn’t happy about it but he also knew why Simon did it, he’s also way too soft and loves the little girl instantly, he isn’t trying to hide it either.

Today I decided to be brave and try and sketch out how I imagine the motorcycles would look for the Cyberknights AU

Putting a horse head on a bike was harder than I thought it would... but for the literal first time drawing one, I think I did alright

Also redesigned Gaz because I hated his previous one, now he looks much cooler (and there's more emphasis on the Aether tech he uses as an Aether expert)

[c-h-a-r-n-i-k]

me when im enjoying a BEAUTIFUL, SCRUMPTIOUS—FLAVORSOME, even—piece of art of one of my favorite boys…

and they have ZERO HAIR. no arm fur, no thigh fluff, no chest tufts.

SHAVEN.

..BALD.

give my boys some hair.. 😟

edit: GRAMPS NEEDS HIS DAD BOD TOO. you cannot convince me that man doesn’t have one NOR can you convince me that he isn’t the human equivalent of a bear.

[lxvvie]

Bestie im moving homes this week and i tried to lift my couch down 2 flights of stairs and almost died like

Can i PLEASE hire 4 141 dudes to move my stuff so i dont die 😂💀

There was a steep grassy hill next to the last flight of stair so i put it in a large carpt and pushed it down lol

Lettuce pray for you. 🙏

But no really, I'd two-step on their dicks, hoola-hoop on them shits, doing surfboards and splits if they moved my stuff out for me.

I'd cook for them and everything, too, because moving is the damn ghetto lmao.

[leathfaic]

gaz and ghost's relationship is super interesting, we don't really get anything on it except for the fact that they seem to know each other (there are cutscenes they're both in in warzone and gaz pulls ghost up as they escape the prison).

and i think in the beginning that's about it. ghost being ghost he knows the man, works with him and isn't super pissed off because kyle is a competent sergeant. like most his relationships with lower rank.

gaz probably thinks the lieutenant a little eccentric with the whole mask and redacted everything bit he has going on but in the end the results of his work are what matters and they are frighteningly good.

he probably tells soap the little he knows about ghost before they get sent out to al mazrah, tells him the man is cold, scarily efficient and a bit weird but values good work. maybe even tells soap that he's not sure if the friendly approach is the best here, just keep it tactical and professional.

that alone is enough to make soap double down on it of course.

but when ghost and soap get together that's when things start to go sour between them. both have their reasons both rational and emotional. gaz is worried for his best friend, doesn't want him to get hurt in a relationship with someone as emotionally stunted as he thinks ghost is. he doesn't really think ghost deserves someone like his brilliant loving friend. and frankly free time at base is limited and he used to spend all of it joined at the hip with soap who is now dedicating a meaningful portion of that time to ghost too. especially in the early days of the relationship it takes a toll on him.

ghost for his part notices the animosity, is scared for that new and wonderful thing he has with soap because he knows gaz has a significant influence on soap. and especially at the beginning he really craves all of johnny's attention and affection. doesn't like the way soap is physically affectionate towards gaz as well and insists on spending time with him alone sometimes. he has yet to learn to trust in this new relationship. and trust really is an issue with him.

and soap? soap is probably just done with them both.

sits them down together and explains that he loves both of them and refuses to lose out on either relationship because they both decided to be idiots about it.

they don't have to like each other but he demands them to at least keep acting professional for his sake. but also if they both want more time with him they'll have to suck it up and spend time with each other too.

in a rare moment of agreeing with each other both gaz and ghost find that they'd both much rather brawl it out, but johnny is not having that, it would get so much worse if one thought they'd "won" this whole thing. so he gently reminds them that he's a human being not a toy being fought over and neither of them can really say something because rationally they know they are being assholes right then.

soap's dictated peace starts of super tense, two men tolerating each other like two big cats that are forced to close. and in the middle soap who acts like nothing is wrong, who's the sole reason that they are both so tense and at the same time keep grinning and bearing it.

in the field its worse, because that's where rank really comes into play which is not healthy in their dynamic. especially once gaz starts dating price and they get into a weird rank deadlock. but neither of them is willing to escalate. because that would make soap sad and that's the one thing they can agree on not to let happen.

so they keep tolerating each other. keep working together. keep helping each other in the field thinking "fucking hell can't look soap in the eyes if something happened to this idiot."

eventually it shifts from not making soap sad to making soap happy. ghost brings takeout from a quick trip outside base and brings some for gaz too because hanging out with him makes soap happy. gaz plans something fun for the weekend and to make soap happy makes sure it's something ghost can also come to without feeling too uncomfortable.

and soap loves it so much both his beat friend and his partner can't help but share his happiness. it's infectious.

so they get to know each other and slowly come round realise that the only threat to their relationship with soap is their relationship with each other. thus it progresses back to its neutral starting point and then steadily becomes more. they spend too much time with each other not to become friends. not that they would admit it. yet they laugh at each others jokes and sometimes even find themselves accidentally hanging out without soap.

both of them are so offended when they find themselves realising it, how the fuck could that even happen? and then soap waltzes in. who's been even happier ever since they started behaving themselves normal around each other again. soap who's love is too strong for them to stay enemies about it so instead they just accept that they never really had a chance to do anything about it but become friends.

some manly huffing noises are made and then they get on with it because soap decided its movie night.

price adamantly keeps out of it, even once things with gaz start happening. won't even talk about it except with soap when they both need to blow off some steam. i could probably (and might) write an equally long piece how that affects them all.

[arctichotch]

if they kill any of my boys in MW3 it’s over for them

[eenochian]

the way this fandom treats characters is astounding. like y’all do realize that every single character is shitty, right? literally every last one. your blorbo is not an exception. no, “but my fave—” no exceptions. literally the only character that i can’t think of any issues with off the top of my head is farah.
