regulus has never been much about the romance cliches until he meet barty, and suddenly he was willing to lie about hating olives so barty could always have all of them.

Soap hates when his foods mix. He won't say anything if someone gets him food and just lumps it all together, he just... won't eat it. He'll pick at it, push it around, maybe pop a piece into his mouth.

He's been like that since he was a kid, used to get in a lot of trouble for it. Always the "picky eater" when really he's usually willing to try just about anything.

On many occasions soap has forgone lunch because everything got lumped together. Nobody really notices since he never says anything.

But ghost notices. It's his thing to notice the things that other people don't.

At first he couldn't figure it out. There was on pattern, and no decernible rhyme or reason to it. Just some days soap would eat, some days he would. It wasn't even that he'd have had a bad day. Sometimes it was 3 days in a row without lunch or 3 weeks of consistent lunches.

It was only months later that ghost finally figured it out. Months of watching him closely. Finally ghost realized, after watching soap receive chicken tenders and mash potatoes next to each other one day, and on top of each other another.

From from then on when ghost noticed soap skip lunch he made sure to bring soap something he would eat. Ghost brought it up the first time. Soap explained with a sheepish laugh, saying it was a bit embarrassing, ghost assure him it wasn't. After that soap usually have ghost his unwanted food. Sometimes ghost would do the work of separating his food items for him if there was time, it was the least he could do since soap pealed his peaches for him without complaint.

the olive theory....

[olivers-cocoapuffs]

Severus loves olives and James hates them

[troybarnesbabygirlconfirmed]

okay so based on jeff’s reaction to the cans of olives we know nothing about his opinion on them except that he doesn’t want them. and if you like olives i feel like youre usually not opposed to taking them… right? so maybe he doesn’t like them.

but britta definitely does like olives

and i thought this was cute. mostly bc i love them and i think they are my favorite insane toxic disaster couple.

I see your olive theory and I raise you....

the spider theory!

[jadeandkit]

you know what this means, right?

[sonnet-of-anarchy]

Ok but like Alison hosting a cocktail party & serving martinis - Robin gives Julian the olive bc it’s bitter and he doesn’t like it (Julian loves them)

[anti-homophobia-cheese]

you know how the best part about a cornetto is the little chocolate bit at the bottom? yeah my best friend hates them. she's insane but at least our relationship is balanced <3

The Olive Theory

I have several criticism of How I Met Your Mother but I did in fact watch the entire thing. The Olive Theory is something that is often miss interpreted. At first it’s the idea that Lily love olives and Marshall hates them to together they’re a perfect match, and this idea will apply to others two. And I get it. I love the idea that you even each other out, your preferences are opposite the other and so it works. But I think the romantic part of the story is that later on Ted seems Marshal eating olives and he’s shocked. And Marshal’s response is that he actually grew to like olives but he gave them to Lily anyway.

The perfect match is a great idea, but taking the action to make the other happy is better

The olive theory

Simon loves peaches, price actually won't buy more than one or two at a time though. There may have been an incident where price bought some in bulk for him, and he may or may not have eaten so many that he threw up. It was in the middle of the night, and price was awakened at 2am to ghost at the foot of his bed saying he "frew up".

BUT he absolutely hates the feel of the peach skin, it makes him feel "itchy" under his skin. So before soap he'd either have to use a pair of gloves to skin the fruit, which is messy and wasteful and impractical. Or he'd have to ask someone to do it for him, which is also impractical, plus he's not exactly keen on telling a random recruit that the big bad ghost can't handle touching a fruit. This of course meant that his choices were down to Price and Gaz, but even gaz didn't know about his dilemma, so really it was just price. And having to go find than man and bother him to peal his fruit seemed both annoying and like a lot of work so he could have a snack.

And then soap comes along and well, he wouldn't exactly say peaches are his favorite fruit, but he has no problems with its texture. For a while he wasn't aware of Ghost's touch aversion to the fruit, probably because they hadn't had peaches on base for a few months. But you could only be attached at the hip for so long before learning something new about the other person. Eventually it became habitual for soap to peal ghost's fruit for him.

Soap also may or may not sneak ghost some extra peaches when price cuts him off.

I have more olive theory thoughts for them if y'all want

[That last scene where Buck interrupts Eddie’s Risky Business moment is certainly open to interpretation. Is this a friendly hangout, just two bros getting together to talk out their problems?]

Actually, I think it’s beyond that. It’s them��not talking. That was the real thing to me when I read it. Buck looks Eddie up and down — he’s in his underwear and a shirt with the collar popped, the mustache is gone, there’s obviously something happening with him — but they don’t need to talk in that moment. It’s like, you’re going through something and I’m going through something, so let’s just have a drink and be in each other’s space in a supportive way. I’m guessing they did exchange some words at some point, but I imagine they didn’t talk for a while. Just being there for each other was enough. - Oliver Stark
