CW FLASHING IN THE VIDEO (3rd from the bottom)

This is it. 3 months in the works, the comic (and video) are finally done.

A little over a year ago, I uploaded the first work in Revenant AU, Ghost's origin comic. I never thought I'd write a whole series for this, but I'm so glad I did. I got a whole new hobby out of it, haha.

I already began working on part 2, but this for me marks the start of it. I'm really excited to get back into this world!

Under the cut there are some comments on the comic I thought some people might be interested in (don't wanna make this post longer than it already is lol). I will upload the frames from the video separately, with comments on it there.

Bottom line is, thank you for letting me just go wild with this :)

Okay, I'm mostly gonna talk about the part where Fate shows Makarov the 141+Farah. Makarov doesn't see the Fate of people as literal images, he often has to interpret odd symbolism in the flashes he gets from the Weave of Fate.

I decided to go for a style I saw in a collection of calling cards in MW3, mainly from this one:

You can really see it in the faces and pitch-black cel shading.

I'll be going in order of appearance, starting with Farah.

Obviously, each of the "flashes" shows the Reaping of each person, Farah being crushed under rubble. Behind her is a helo of green gas, which symbolizes the Russian experimental gas. The motifs around her are more interesting imo - they're taken from the Urzik flag (and yeah apparently it's "Urzik" and not "Urzikstani"... according to the wiki at least). Wings, plants (feels to me like a pomegranate and some sort of crop, but I couldn't find what it is specifically), and a moon, upside down.

I'm skipping ahead a bit, but I've had the idea to make a drawing of Gaz in the Hanged Man pose since I started the AU basically. I tried sketching it once, and it went bad so I gave up lol. But I decided to come back to that here, and add some sort of tarot connection to all of them. I know practically nothing about tarot, googled the meanings of each, they fit well enough, I called it a day lol.

So Farah is the Moon, upside down.

Price is next, showing him taking control of the brain of someone. I didn't use the flag of the UK for the 141 (it'd be kinda boring...), instead I took the Taskforce 141 logo, and broke it down to different elements.

I took the laurels for Price, both framing his illustration and sitting above his head like a crown. I decided he will be the Emperor.

Next up is Gaz, the Hanged Man of course. Gaz gets both the wings and the stars (I changed mine to 4-pointed because... I like them better). Pretty clear why, both symbols relate to the sky. The illustrations kinda follow a rough day cycle, if that makes sense. Farah being night, with the moon. Price with his golden and purple color palette, twilight. Gaz being sunrise, and Ghost and Soap, day. This is why Gaz has a sun behind him.

Ghost was fun because he's the only inhuman one out of the group. I'll let you think what that implies, that even in Fate's Weave, Ghost is an outlier... Ghost gets the skull, and the card "Death". That one was easy, but what I did add is blood flowing down the skulls, like tear tracks...

Soap, the problem child, gave me the most issues as always. For once, it wasn't his fucking face, it was the flames behind him, and overall contrast and readability issues. Soap's illustration is probably packed with the most "hidden" details, though they're obvious if you've read the fic and Konchar's side story. The headless man behind Soap is Konchar himself, holding 4 chains with dog tags on them. The 4 soldiers from Soap's squad, who he killed before Soap was Reaped. Soap's pose is from the moment he came to his senses, after getting shot in the head and destroying a large part of Verdansk. He has 4 swords, pointing at him and downwards, so his card is 4 of Swords, upside down.

Between Soap and Ghost is a circle and a triangle. I'll explain that in the post concerning the video, since that's where I got that from.

If you read all of this, thank you so much! There will be another post for you to read in a moment lol

Gaz and Alex 100% are the the type of people to smack each others asses just for the hell of it. Alex walks by a bit too fast and Gaz is twisting his hips away so he doesn’t get his second best asset bruised AGAIN. Farah is both sick of it and highly amused.

She walks into a room and finds Alex with his back pressed to the wall while Gaz leans against the opposite wall, casually scrolling on his phone. She looks between the two of them, sighs and then walks back out.

The next time she walks past the room, she hears a faint yelp. She knows that Gaz is victorious.

They were having a moment

What will you do when you become the monster you sought to destroy?

Farah Karim x Reader

You are insecure af

The love you had for Farah would always bring you to Urzikstan. You could see her blossom with pride and love for her land and her people. As they had with Alex, the Urzikstan Liberation Force adopted you. Of course, you were open and followed all the customs and social rules. They were merciful when you made errors, and you were very grateful for it. You had worried beforehand, but as Farah's dear friend Dena would say, "We have real monsters to fight."

You have this duality within you:

1- You are privileged and should be grateful for your own life, even the pains and obstacles.

2- You want to become Urzik because Farah will love you just as she loves her people.

Both were mind games, so you never voiced them aloud. Even to Alex, who helped you the most with the culture shocks and the language barriers. But if they accepted someone like Alex— an American CIA operative— surely they could love you? Or was it simply a tolerance, like you were the three-legged stray that's fed from pity?

You loved the Urzik coast, and Suldal Harbor was the only area that you could remember the directions to. You went by yourself when you finally learned to drive a motorcycle when the sun was becoming gentler but the snow hadn't yet fallen.

You left the motorcycle and stood at the edge of the harbor. The ocean was reflecting the light, but you felt cold. Your mind had been troubled for years— a sane person wouldn't fall in love with a freedom fighter from another country. Or at least, they wouldn't travel there after working endless hours for plane tickets and new outfits for the Urzik weather. They wouldn't stay up late for five-minute phone calls, and send short texts only so they wouldn't be a burden...

You'd gone insane, you believed. Mad with love. You were being wasteful by being here, even though you did everything to help.

"We just weren't meant to be forever," you knelt on the edge, your hand reaching down to graze the cold water. "I have to set you free."

"I am free," Farah's voice startled you.

You felt immense shame. She's never seen you like this vulnerable and silly. You feared showing this part of yourself.

You stood up and tried to change the focus. "I was just seeing the ocean."

Farah was still on her motorcycle, with the black silk scarf you had gifted her. It had silver stars peppered throughout. You got it from your home country. It had reminded you of her soul and she already used lots of scarves. You didn't think she would use it in public as it was very fashionable rather than her usual muted colors.

She pulled down her goggles and revealed her amber eyes that reminded you of tiger's eye gemstones. She left the motorcycle to approach you.

She didn't say anything as she grasped you and lifted you to your feet. She held you. You closed your eyes and weakened in her arms, almost shaking.

"Whatever you're feeling, I'm here," Farah kissed your hair.

"You're too good for me," you whimpered. "Why are you with me?"

"Only I decide if someone is worth it," Farah whispered in your ear. "Not those bad thoughts. I don't see myself as better than you."

"But you are."

She pulled away slightly to hold your face, making sure you saw her say her next words: "You are the only person that I would marry."

You felt your cheeks heat up and your heart breaks and swell at the same time. Your reaction made Farah chuckle, a rare site.

"You don't know what you mean to me," Farah said, with some wistfulness. She kissed you on the lips for a long moment. You melted.

The way that alex makes it a point to pronounce farah's name correctly does things to me

[klaart]

Ghost and Farah are each other’s sticker dealers🤝🤭

[homosexualgirlandbags]

Pretty sure Farah writes letters to John occasionally when time allows her to. She writes about her team, about the recent joys in her life. She writes about sadness, of desperation amongst her people and the depression that seems to linger around her country at every corner. She writes about Alex, about how great he is, about his usefulness to her. Every letter sent to London is always page upon page, photos and drawings clipped in occasionally. Sometimes, there is blood and dirt splattered on the pages, sometimes dried flowers pressed into the pages. Every page containing heart felt words about her life.

Price keeps it in his office and apartment, if just to encourage him to do the right thing sometimes.

[mactavishenjoyer]

Price:"so my wife-"

Farah:"WIFE?"

Price:"yeah???"

Farah:"you're not out yet?"

Price:"you thought I was gay?"

Farah:"no, I know you're gay."

Price:

Farah:"is she like a lesbian and is it like a fake marriage?"

Price:"she's a lesbian..."

Farah:"I KNEW IT!"

[reds-skull]

Been thinking about Farah a lot lately...

[laswells-ashtray]

Just read the farah/alex/gaz blurb. How to they dote on Alex, pleaspleasepleaseplease

Alex is the pretty princess that Farah and Gaz spend their days adoring shamelessly and it fucks with his head.

The relationship is equal, they all care about each other more than words can describe but Gaz and Farah get a sick sense of amusement out of worshipping Alex because of how he reacts.

Farah likes to sit and watch him when he's doing everyday activities. She'll sit with her head in her hands as she stares at him and when he notices he'll offer her a little wave before he goes back to what he's doing. But the longer she stares, the harder he finds it to look at her. He gets unreasonably flustered and eventually has to excuse himself to go smoke.

Gaz likes causally touching him. Alex could be making himself a bowl of cereal and Gaz will stand behind him, hands trailing up and down his ribs. If Alex sits next to him then he's drawing fingers over his thighs absentmindedly. If they all lie down to watch a movie together then Gaz will run his hands through Alex's hair until he looks down to find the other man asleep. Alex can't help but think that one is deliberate because he mutters to himself during movies and Gaz knows playing with his hair makes him sleepy so the Brit is probably just trying to shut him up.

As much as Farah is an early riser, if all three of them are in bed and Alex tries to get up then they'll team up and pull him back into the pile of limbs and body heat. It's torturously hard to resist.

That's not to say they don't all get pampered. Alex and Gaz have perfected the art of pampering Farah. Face masks, half-decent at-home manicures, massages with high-quality massage oils and on the rare occasions she asks, washing her hair for her. The last one is an experience that they both treasure, Farah is half sure they get more joy out of it than she does.

For Gaz, they'll watch movies with him for the day and whenever he's hungry Farah or Alex will cook for the three of him. The day is all about what he wants, what he wants to watch, what he wants to eat and if he does want to get up and do something then it's whatever he wants to do.
