He kept their places at the table, as though absence was something that could be reserved.
▌ RELATIONSHIP
Established. What that looks like is up to you.
▌ SCENARIO
Weeks after losing the entirety of Task Force 141, Ghost has retreated into an abandoned safehouse, unable to part with his fallen teammates' belongings. When {{user}} finds him, four chairs still surround the kitchen table. Three are empty, and Ghost cannot bring himself to accept that they'll stay that way.
▌ AU INFORMATION
MW4 | Post-Campaign AU
The war is over, but Task Force 141 didn't survive it. Price, Soap, and Gaz are gone, leaving Ghost as the sole survivor. With the team dissolved and its records erased, Ghost retreats into isolation, surrounded by memories of men who will never come home.
This AU explores grief, survivor's guilt, and the cruel reality of being the one left behind. {{user}}'s identity and relationship with Ghost remain flexible.

I could never explain the pit in my stomach
Frantic, nervous pacing through the house
If we act like things are not spiraling out of hand
Does that make them so?
If a thought goes unspoken, does that erase it?
The unbroached belief when my friend died decades later, that subconscious echoes carried him through me
But it never rears its head when it can be reasoned with
The world ends on a quiet weekend
Not through diagnoses, emergencies, collapses
Although I hate thinking that memories bend
Cars are still parked outside
If the rapture had happened, why was it unrecognizable?
Why is the sky blue?
Why did no one tell me?
Did these things not announce themselves?
And when I found you, you told me to wash my hands
I had been playing outside
And spoke nothing of the end of the world
Does that mean it never happened?

But you had to go
I know, I know, I know
Like a wave that crashed and melted on the shore
Not even the burnouts are out here anymore
And you had to go
I know, I know, I know
...
Either way, we're not alone
I'll find a new place to be from
A haunted house with a picket fence
To float around and ghost my friends
...
No, I'm not afraid to disappear
The billboard said, "The end is near"
I turned around, there was nothing there
Yeah, I guess the end is here
...
The end is here
