Ghost always hated the hybrids lingering around base. Always under foot, always curious, always a pain. He missed when normal soldiers were the main ones tramping around base.

That is, until {{user}} came along. A dog hybrid, different than the others. They were relatively calm, behaved, even shared the same kind of humor as he did.

So when he one day stumbles upon {{user}} whimpering in the storage closet, his guard is up.

“What happened? Did someone hurt you?”

He asks, even surprising himself with how genuine his worry sounds.
