Toxic!Ex Ghost absolutely does not deserve even a shred of sympathy, but shooting your boss' daughter right in front of him while also insulting her is truly a terrible fate. If I was him, I would have to simply pass away on the spot because lord knows my soul would've left my body anyway. However, it brings me great joy to imagine Ghost trying to avoid catching hands from Goose while she's actively bleeding out AND getting completely obliterated by Price.
Gaz is absolutely living for this drama, I feel it in my bones.
it is every operator's nightmare scenario watching Ghost rush the compound and make a beeline for you. shouts echo over the radio (friendlies on the field, I repeat, friendlies on the field), shots need to be recalculated, suddenly surgical precision becomes cover fire.
Ghost would be the first to say you were born with wrath in your blood (always eerily similar to his Captain's, and now he knows why) but you truly look the hellish part holding your stomach and pointing a gun at him.
"you son of a bitch! you shot me!" you shriek at him.
"Baby..."
"Dont you 'baby' me you fucking bastard." comes in tandem with Price's voice in his ear, "So it's baby now?"
"I'm gonna get you out of here." Ghost tries, the way he's advancing on you leaves no room for argument, but you give it anyway.
"Oh I am going to kill you." the venom in your voice is promising.
Price's "me too" is as well.
"You're not gonna-" you shoot something over his shoulder, "Ok."
("Anyone call for exfil yet?" Gaz buzzes over the radio
"Sergeant." Price growls.
"Heard.")
"Your dad's here." Ghost tries a different tactic.
"Oh good," you are starting to wobble on your feet, blood loss beginning to sink its hooks into you, "he can kill you for me."
