Soap: Alex acts like a neglected shelter dog you adopted
Gaz: Why would you say that?
Soap: Kyle, he's so pitiful
Gaz, laughing: Stop-
Soap: He does that sigh thing when he sits, too
Gaz: *wheezes*

Revenge Can Be Costly
This wasn’t how it was supposed to go. They were supposed to get rid of the last remaining members of Konni. But it seemed like someone, something, had different ideas.
And Price was the victim of it

Alex Keller/Kyle "Gaz" Garrick
Okay, but I don't care what anyone says. Gaz deserves to be loved and appreciated in any ships and within the fandom. His character development is truly amazing and one of my favorites. Not only that, can we talk about how baby girl he is? Sassy yet serious. He's fucking gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful. If we were in a room, one would be coming out pregnant and it's not me.
More of the YouTuber AU random bits
Just thinking of this thing as I'm working on the drabbles
There's compilation videos of all the times Gaz kinda blushes/smiles softly when Alex calls him a pet name. There's compilations literally titled "Alex for SIMP President" and it's just all the times he's being Alex and in love with Gaz. The Among Us video fuels these like gasoline lol
There's "Soap Being Scottish" compilations.
There's "Times They Forgot Alex is an Amputee" compilations
There's compilations of Gaz's side eyes to his camera every time one of them says something really wild/insults him directly
Once he and Alex move in together there's compilations of "Times Alex Interrupted Gaz's Stream Just For CuddlesTM" and it's all the times where Alex just walks into Gaz's office and sits on his lap
There's "Times Gaz Had Beef With A Weird Russian Dude" compilations, but they're just every time anyone, especially Gaz, brings up his misfortunes with helicopters, especially when Nik is the pilot.
There's Ghost compilations that always comment on his dark humor/edgy humor; there's compilations on all the times he's referenced 'death' in his life (like how in some games his tag is "LegallyDead")
From @eaveplzzz 's tags during a reblog of the OG post, there's so many theory videos on what happened to Alex's leg; why do they always say "Classic Soap" or "Soap NO" when he has a bomb/sets off an explosion; Who Is Ghost? theory videos are a big hit, especially the ones about if he's actually "legally dead" or not; the theories about what happened between Gaz and Nik
Gaz eventually being convinced to do vlogs.
His first one is "Moving In Together" and it's literally just a cute/funny video taken from highlights of his stream where he and Alex unpack a bunch of boxes while answering questions from his chat. (the compilation videos go hard after this stream/video goes live) *there's one question during this where someone asks Alex if he's missing his leg because he sold it to help Gaz's career and he just beams at the joke while Gaz screams into his hands*
This stream/video was so popular Alex suggests they make an entire channel dedicated to doing streams like that again/playing games just the two of them/a day in the life type super duper cute shit *there's one clip where they start slow-dancing cause they're listening to a playlist put together by the chat and a slow song comes up. There's so many music video-esque compilations where there's a love song/dedicated-to-this-one-person-for-the-rest-of-my-life songs play to a bunch of their cute moments with the slow dancing in the kitchen being the refrain*
He does eventually post a vlog style video but it's just random bits of things he recorded while at a big gathering over the Christmas holidays with everyone. There's a few ways viewers piece together who is who: Soap because he's the only Scot, and they're always yelling his name in some fashion, Dylan (Gaz's friend) is also easily picked out, Nik once again due to his accent, and eventually everyone catches on with Price *comments go crazy spamming the time signature Price first appears with "Daddy??"*
What surprises everyone the most is when Ghost finally makes an on-camera appearance. It's a brief video, where he's smiling at Soap and Gaz doing something silly. It's just Simon in that moment: no mask, no black around the eyes, his hair is recently cut and styled, and he's happy
*bout to make it sad for a second y'all*
There's a stream once where Gaz makes it clear everything he makes during it go to a Veteran's Help program. It's before the holidays, a very vulnerable time for all veterans, and it's just a quiet stream where he plays a relaxing game and answer questions from chat. He talks about Task Force 141 (briefly and in as little detail as possible), he talks about the helicopter incidents, how he met all the guys he plays with, he talks about he and Soap getting up to no good together, he talks about some of the struggles he had adjusting to civilian life since he didn't know anything else, how much of a help his friends and Alex had been.
It's later revealed the reason he did the stream is for Simon. Because even though it's been years since the incident with his family, it's still something that can hurt badly to this day. How he and Soap were shopping for gifts for Soap's several nieces and nephews. How there was a little toy plane that made the exact same sound Simon's nephew's once did. They even looked the same. How a little blonde boy begged his mum for it. The child looked so familiar it broke one of Simon's barriers.
PTSD isn't curable, it doesn't just disappear over time. There's ways to trigger really bad episodes, and this was just one of those times. It was hard for everyone to see Ghost have such a big setback, but for Gaz? The way they all found ways to help Ghost during it. The way he and the rest of the team, their friends and loved ones, helped reach out to pull Simon back onto his feet. And Gaz wanted other veterans to have that support, especially during the holidays.
He and the 141 (Price, Soap, and Ghost) eventually start doing charity streams just for veterans and the many existing resources for them. They're always wacky, sometimes they're gaming, sometimes they're all in-person doing a fake game show with some of their friends. There's one where they all travel to Mexico to host one with their Las Almas friends to benefit North American veterans' benefits charities.
I don't know, I'm just having so many thoughts about this AU I might just write an entire GazAlex fic based on their lives involving Gaz becoming a big creator.
There's so many thoughts about this AU HOLY SHIT
Lowkey was thinking about making a Greatest Showman AU for COD. I have brainrot...
It would be featuring Ghostsoaproach as the main pairing, and Ghost taking Hugh Jackman's place but with a twist on the plot. Idk if people would be interested in it though.
(Yes Gaz & Farah & The Ghost Team will be in it.)
CoD ship chart (made my own because I couldn't find one)
If the lines are confusing I shall explain and keep in mind it's my opinion
Family: All of 141 is just one big family so no shipping between the boys and Price just no. The games never offered anything beyond that. Also why Laswell isn't here she's canonically married.
Otp: GhostSoap, AleRudy, NikPrice. Their relationships and chemistry are just nice.
Great: AlexFarah, AlexGaz, Korangi. No big opinion on them. Alex and Farah were already falling in love from the start. Alex and Gaz seem like bros so go for it. There's little info on Konig and Horangi so you can go crazy with them. And Nick approves so 👍
No Problem: FarahAlexGaz. No big opinion on this one, I don't get poly in general or maybe that's just me as an Aroace person. But since they actually know each other, it works better rather than taking an existing relationship and throwing in a character no one knows.
NO: It's Graves and this is Graves slander, he can die in a hole. ValAle (is that the ship name?) these two already have a tainted past. There's little info to go on with Konig as is. Also, neither Soap nor Ghost knows him well enough to get into a relationship. Also Konig is not part of 141 but fans constantly put him there. Why?
WTF: Restating my point from before they're his boys and never have we seen him act in that way towards them so big no.
And just a friendly reminder sex ≠ love
and if you don't like or don't agree you can leave.
Little guy au, Gaz’s necklace breaking. Gasp! What happens next? It’s all up to you ~ (besides mcd because i’ll cry) thank you!!!
Of course! Everyone is aware of what Gaz is except Alex.
