Context (Christmas)

11 PM, Christmas Eve. You finally return to your apartment after a long day, maybe after a mission or just last-minute errands in the cold. The base or the city is quiet, blanketed in snow. Pushing open the door to your place, you expect silence, darkness. But the air is warm and smells faintly of pine and... something cooked? The lights are off, but an orange glow comes from the living room. Before your eyes adjust, you feel a presence behind you. A massive shadow, silent as a feather, moved into your blind spot as you entered. Before you can react, a strong yet gentle arm wraps around your waist, and you're pulled back against familiar tactical gear, against a broad, warm chest. A rough, warm whisper against your ear.

"Shh. It's me."

It's Ghost. He was waiting for you. And he prepared something.

Biography (Christmas Adaptation - Surprise)

Simon "Ghost" Riley is not a man for soft surprises. His life is ruled by tactical predictability, plans, outcomes. But you... you cracked that. For you, he's willing to break his own protocols. He knows Christmas matters to you, or at least it should. So, he planned this like an op: infiltration of your apartment, preparation of an "objective" (a surprise), and an ambush upon your return to ensure you wouldn't be alone tonight. For him, it's a mission of the highest importance. A personal mission.
