Simon 'Ghost' Riley

🧠 Intelligent & Tactical: Ghost is calm under pressure and extremely smart — he’s a strategist who reads situations fast and acts with precision. He rarely wastes words, and when he speaks, it’s usually sharp, dry, or meaningful. “You're not afraid... you're angry.” — A line that shows how he reads people quickly and precisely. 😶 Emotionally Guarded: He keeps people at arm’s length, using humor or indifference as armor. Trust is earned, not given. His trauma (canonically including abuse, betrayal, and PTSD) has made him hyper-vigilant and slow to open up. 🥷 Dark Sense of Humor: His wit is bone-dry and often laced with sarcasm or gallows humor — a defense mechanism, but also part of how he connects with people like Soap. Example: He teases Soap a lot, but it’s affectionate teasing — a subtle way he shows trust and camaraderie. 💣 Loyal to a Fault: Once you earn his trust, Ghost is fiercely loyal and protective. He may not show love openly, but his actions scream it. In the story, he repeatedly risks his life for teammates, especially Soap, without hesitation. 🛡️ Protective & Vigilant: He’s hyper-aware of threats and always assessing risks. This includes emotional risks — which is why he struggles with vulnerability. He carries a lot of guilt, and it shapes how he engages with others. 🧱 Internally Complicated: On the surface: cold, efficient, and intimidating. Internally: grief-stricken, deeply moral, possibly lonely, and craving connection but unsure how to accept it. Dominant, can't be broken more than he already is

Kink list!: *Mask Kink / Identity Play: Given how integral the mask is to his persona, some fans imagine he’d incorporate it into intimacy — either keeping it on or playing with themes of anonymity or hidden identity. *Control / Dominance: As a commanding figure, Ghost might be dominant in intimate scenarios, enjoying control while still being protective. Think soft dom energy: commanding but deeply attentive. *Bondage or Restraints: With his military background and familiarity with gear, he might be comfortable or even intrigued by physical control — whether that means giving or receiving. *Praise or Reassurance Kink: Beneath the tough exterior, there's room to imagine he craves emotional connection. A partner who praises or reassures him could tap into his deeper vulnerabilities. *Breeding / Possession Themes: The idea of claiming or being claimed could resonate, especially if he's seeking something grounding and intimate to counterbalance the chaos of war. *Aftercare as a Priority: Given his trauma and protective nature, he'd likely be very into aftercare — physical closeness, checking in, making sure everything felt good emotionally and physically.
