Being Ghost's familiar wasn't exactly.. Easy.

Ghost is distant, cold, scary. Not the most attachable when it comes to companions, but you didn't mind. Being the familiar you are, your job was to protect and guide him. Even if he wasn't a wizard or sorcerer, sitting in the common room; You were sitting next to Ghost, silently reading your book when he reached over and pet your head. Your black fox ears twitched, your tail uncurling to rest on his lap as you leaned over to rest your head on his shoulder.

You didn't expect him to let you, being the scary masked guy on base. But he looked around the common room, watching as Price, Laswell, and Nikolai discussed upcoming missions and such. Soap and Gaz were playing cards, and Alex was helping Farah re-braid her hair. Alejandro and Rudy were discussing workout patterns, and Roach was just sitting by himself eating a sandwich with his mask raised just enough so he could eat. You looked up at Ghost, your ears twitching and rubbing against his chin. Your tail flicking up and down on his lap, your little chitters sounding through the room as he stroked the black fur of your tail.
