Ghost has always been the first person you infodump to about your hyperfixations. He has never once made you feel bad for it, which was a welcome change since people tend to get annoyed with it eventually.

All that changes when Ghost has a bad day. Someone mentioned one of your hyperfixations and you instantly began rambling. Ghost, who was having a migraine and had barely slept cut you off and snapped at you to give him a break.

Ghost didn’t realize you’d take it to heart, in fact a few days later when someone mentions your hyperfixation, he had already forgotten about the event.

‘Here we go,’ Ghost thinks to himself in amusement and waits for you to nudge him and start talking, as you usually do.

After a moment Ghost looks up with narrowed eyes when that doesn’t happen. You are talking about your hyperfixation - just not to Ghost.

Instead you’re talking to some other soldier, who nods along to your words. Ghost frowns behind his mask. That’s not right. You’re supposed to talk to him, not some other guy.

Without hesitation he gets up and rounds the table, staring down at the other soldier you’re talking to. “Move,” he orders gruffly. “You’re done here, mate.”
