cooking up something 👀
makagraves but they're bat hybrids...
Graves is a northern ghost bat with plenty of white fluff he spends way too long trying to groom. Makarov is a vampire bat (duh) who's pointed features scare off anyone stupid enough to get close.
See Graves as he casually saunters up to his boyfriend, invades his personal space, and promptly falls asleep. Bafflingly, Makarov lets him and even snuggles closer. He will vehemently deny it ever happened if asked.
While hunting, Makarov would gun for bigger prey, ones with ticks or insects that can be collected to give to his mate later. Snacks in exchange for Graves licking off all the blood on his face back in their nest. Though he'd probably do it anyway without food bribe. Graves couldn't hunt big prey on account of his smaller claws, but he was smart enough to know how to trap them. Lure them into a situation where Makarov could easily feed without risking injury.
Of course they'd have to separate to tend to their own colonies. It's not uncommon for bats of different species to intermingle but what sane soul would choose someone from their rival colony? So their nest is hidden away from their homes, at some midpoint where its not too far and not too close. That way, after being separated for maybe weeks, they can just crash in their pile of leaves and not move until the sun goes down.
They'll negotiate during cuddles because leadership never rests. Who has which hunting area for the month? Are there new predators to look out for? When will their yearly migration start on what route this time?
It's traitorous sure, but their colonies have benefited from their little tryst so there isn't much to object to.
Except maybe mating season. (NSFW under the cut)
i like to think my reaction pictures show my personality amazingly others just don’t appreciate it 😿🙁
A little MakaGraves time ❤️🖤

makagraves but make it angel!Phillip (re: my prev hcs) and Makarov doesn't know.
Wouldnt it'd mean the Christian relics could have actual magical powers...
Imagine Makarov gets his hands on one, an ornate ring that belonged to some orthodox saint. I read somewhere that OG!Makarov was literally Russian Orthodox Christian and that probably still applies to the reboot as well. So he's careful with it but treats it more like a trophy then anything truly sacred.
At some point Graves visits and is looking around the collection of stuff Makarov has in one of his many residences when he sees the ring on a little velvet cushion. Of course he instantly knows what it is, trying not to sweat bullets or else blow his cover.
Makarov misinterprets the aversion as fear of damaging stuff and he take the ring out, thinking to show it off.
Big mistake.
Cause through the ring, corporal illusions don't work and Makarov sees something very bright and angelic where Graves stands.
When Makarov holds it up to his eye, he sees wings and a cracked halo on Graves who looks increasingly alarmed at the scrutiny.
"What are you."
Graves tries to stammered something about the trick of the light or how they must've drank too much while shimmying over to the exit. Only for Makarov to cage him in, pinning him to the wall. He double checks that he isnt going crazy, moving the ring over his normal human hand that appears as is to Graves' arm that glows only through the hole.
"You are not human." Makarov accuses. "Show me what you are."
Graves again tries to get out of this and earns himself a jab to the ribs for his troubles. Makarov's grip is ironclad, they're not going anywhere.
With no other choice, Graves relents and drops the illusion. In a blink, what was a rugged aged commander became a being as white as snow.
Graves doesn't shine as much as he used to and his wings have lost their original luster, but Makarov is in awe all the same.
He runs his calloused gun-scarred fingers through the soft feathers, marveling as they fluttered, unused to human touch. His hands smooth over everything inch of glowing skin. When Makarov glances up at the cracks in Graves' halo, he taps it a few times as if making sure it was real.
"You fell."
"Yep."
Graves is stone still. He could break free and fly away if he absolutely has to, but he gets distracted by how enthralled Makarov was. Human hands eventually settle on his hips and dug into him. Makarov hadn't blinked in minutes, a possessive heat swirling around his eyes and gut.
"An angel." Makarov states the obvious like a prayer.
Graves falters at how they huddled closer. "Don’t get any ideas now."
Instead, Makarov takes Graves' hand, brought it up, and kissed each knuckle with a reverence.
"I've had an angel by my side."
Vindication and fascination rolled into an inky black tone. Graves is a sheepish mess as he pushes at Makarov’s shoulders to make space, muttering something about getting attached to a megalomaniac.
Makarov hears none of it and yanks his lover's hand towards him, slipping the ornate ring onto an angelic radiant finger. It fits perfectly.
Graves gets to so embarrassed he reverts to human form and attempts to pull the relic off. It doesn't budge.
"My angel." Makarov purrs into Graves' ear. "You stay with me."
The retort Graves has disappeared as Makarov mouths at his neck, humming Russian prayers and sermons he'd memorized as a child. He, like he had then, worships God's creation with all of his soul. His damned blackened heart will chain this one to him as well.
Had an Anon request something like this 👍
“Are we certain this is Makarov’s daughter?” Captain Price asked, as he leaned over the desk and studied the high school yearbook.
“Yes. We have very solid intel Captain. Laswell herself looked into this for weeks.” Gaz spoke with a stern look on his face.
“Fuck. That’s the ticket to getting that bastard. And this time, I’m pulling the bloody trigger.” Soap growled and Ghost nodded in agreement.
“Easy lads. Trust but verify. As soon as I speak with one of my contacts, we can fetch the lass and see if she visits her Dad on occasion.”
“We have a Mrs. Makarov to track down?” Soap added.
“Nothing on record. Just need to grab a strand of hair from her and we’ll find out right-quick.” Gaz told them.
Soap and Ghost sat hidden in their dark grey SUV. “Doesn’t sit right with me, Johnny boy.” Ghost grumbled.
“What? We aren’t going to hurt her you know that.” Soap assured him with a gentle pat on the thigh.
“Right. This better not turn into a shit fest.”
“Again, don’t worry that pretty head of yours.”
Ghost sat up and watched the bodyguard walking just a few feet from Makarov’s daughter. They followed the car until it stopped outside of very nice townhouse.
The pair got out the moment the sun went down, and broke in, taking the guard down with a stun dart. Soap saw an older woman sleeping in a room near the kitchen and left her alone.
He found the daughter and very quickly used some chloroform to keep her sleeping. They were in and out in five minutes.
“We got her. Rendezvous in thirty.” Ghost told Price over the phone.
“Elsa Makarov? Wake up sweetie.” Price’s voice cut through her chemical-induced slumber.
She rubbed her eyes and then froze up. She looked at the Captain with big pretty blue eyes. “Why am I here?” She asked, gripping the couch cushion beneath her.
She saw she had a blanket on so she pulled it up to her neck.
“Look, we just need to know a little bit about your father. We have been trying to… locate him.” Price spoke as gently as he could, but it was still gruff.
She wasn’t loosening up so they had Gaz come in. “Elsa. Your Dad hurt a lot of people. We need to find out where he is so we can make sure it doesn’t happen again.”
“I won’t let you hurt my father!” She shouted as warm tears trailed down her soft cheeks.
She had dimples just like Makarov, and dark, straight hair. But her eyes were a stunning blue.
“Does your Mom have blue eyes, Elsa?” Gaz asked her with a friendly smile.
“Mom?” She looked confused.
“It’s ok. We can try again later. Are you hungry?” Gaz asked her.
She nodded.
“Ok. I will order a pizza.” He patted her on the shoulder.
“Do you have any salad?” She asked.
“We can get that too.”
Captain Price got through to Makarov and let him know they had Elsa.
“If you touch a single hair on her head… fuck it. I will kill you just for talking to her.” Makarov was seething. The angry breaths of air coming through his nostrils were audible as he spoke.
“We intend to find your woman too. Unless you turn yourself in. You know I am a patient man… but patience doesn’t last forever. I will do what needs to be done.” Price’s threat was clear.
Several hours went by and Price got a call from none other than the former Shadow Commander himself.
“Captain. General Graves here. I am going to be taking Elsa off your hands.”
“Stay out of this.” Price told him. “This has got nothing to do with you.”
“Trust me, Johnathan. It has everything to do with me.” Graves’ tone was suddenly dripping with menace. “I have my sights on you and your boys, I’ll be there in an hour.”
“What the fuck?” Soap caught wind of the conversation.
“Looks like General USA has his hand in this.” Price told Soap.
“He has no power over you.”
“He technically does, remember?” Price told Soap.
Graves arrived with a handful of soldiers, all dressed in black. Graves himself was wearing an elegant black button down shirt and matching suit pants. He had a platinum watch on too.
His look raised some brows with 141. Graves was always a jeans kind of guy. Elsa rushed to him. “Dad!”
Soap and Price’s necks snapped in her direction. Graves hugged her tightly. “Did anyone hurt you sweetie?” Graves asked her, locking eyes with her as he inspected her face a little.
“No. I had some food and they asked about father.”
“Excuse me, what the fuck is going on?” Soap asked with a frown on his face.
“Whoa, language.” Graves snapped at him.
“Are you some kind of … guardian?” Price asked, also completely confused.
“I’m her Dad.” Graves told them. “Run on over to the car, Els’.” He told her.
“Makarov is her father.” Soap corrected him.
“That he is, Johnny boy. And I am her Dad.” Graves smirked over at Price and Soap.
“Adopted then. Why would you two be sharing a child?” Soap prodded.
“Vova wanted a legacy. My twin sister was the surrogate.”
“So the mother is your twin sister.” Price stated with a hint of lingering confusion.
“Look… Vladimir and I are married. Does that clear up the problem? You nabbed the wrong kid today. She is my daughter too. Stand down.”
Graves left the two men to their bewilderment and called Makarov.
“I have Ellie, honey. Everything is alright.”
“Did you kill the bastards?” Makarov snarled.
“No, handsome. Not the right way to handle things in the heat of a war. Are you coming home tonight?”
There was a deep sigh on the other end. “Yes, my love. I need to see you two again.” Makarov sounded like a different person. His anger was temporarily diffused.
