▹ John Price
Price has always kept a photo of you with him. Always... Well, since you'd met him.
Its a picture you had insisted he get rid of when he took it himself and showed you.
It showed you truly laughing. A bright, 'embarrassing' smile on your face that completely lit up your eyes and showed your teeth before you could cover your face shyly.
Maybe you didn't like it, but Price had stowed it away for 'safe-keeping' ever since. Once promising to get rid of it but of course... he couldn't really do it, could he?
Price keeps it under the brim of his hat, where he wouldn't let anyone take it.
He keeps the image in great shape, making sure there's a protective film over it, trying not to bend or fold it in anyway. Hell, he'd sew it in there whenever he got the chance... but he likes holding it when no one's looking too.
Every time he looks down at it-the picture of you laughing and pure-it makes him smile too, the rough pads of his thumbs brushing over your face.
▹ König
König technically has two photos of you.
One is on his phone in his photo gallery, and the other is a small polaroid you had taken of yourself.
He is free to look at the one on his phone whenever, and its something quickly available... yet he doesn't really open it if there are people around try to glance over his shoulder at what he's looking at.
So, he deeply treasures the tiny polaroid and tries to keep it as safe as possible.
König is the least discreet, to no fault of his own. He's usually caught the moment he tries to look at either one. Either fumbling with his phone or slapping the photo close to his chest so that no one would see.
He just really likes looking at them.
Acts like it never happens and vehemently denies everything, even if to Horangi its pretty obvious.
Sometimes König draws over the pictures, idly doodling either next to the polaroid on a piece of paper while he's doing work or running his finger over his phone screen.
▹ Simon "Ghost" Riley
Ghost keeps a picture of you too.
Its a small thing, someone had taken when the two of you weren't paying attention. A celebratory photo after a mission.
The moment it was taken, mostly without his knowledge, he had snatched the photo away in hopes to burn it later. Leave no trace of himself to wonder.
But fuck, he couldn't.
It was actually... nice, once he got a good look at it. The image of you both together, standing so closely. The way he looked at you in the photo-brown eyes soft and fully raptured by your face behind his mask-was enough to make him scoff.
Of course the camera caught the exact moment of he showed a bit of fondness.
Still, he keeps it to this day. Buried under all his other meager gear. Folded back so that his image is tucked away and yours stands out.
He doesn't like looking at his face, just yours.
He'd never take it out to the field, where someone could possibly discover a possible... to know your face and use it against him, but sometimes in the loneliest of nights, he takes it out just to look at it.
▹ Grigori Weaver
Weaver would never admit it, but yes, he has a picture of you.
He doesn't want you to know, or find out about it.
If you did, he just denies it and claims "he doesn't know where that thing came from"
but truthfully, its his most precious keepsake.
Its what kept him going through all those years he'd served in prison.
A simple image of your face.
The photo is no bigger than his palm, and its just of you. A small portrait.
The picture is old and worn down lovingly. The corners soft and rounded, and folded in half so many times he had taped the back of it to keep it from splitting entirely in half.
Clearly, it means a lot, with how much care he's tried to put into mending the delicate thing.
He hides the picture in his breast pocket, close to his heart, and in a place only he knows.
It brings a sense of comfort sometimes, knowing your image is so close when he's out there trying to 'fix' things.
