Simon came to the bar with 141 to blow off steam, not to reopen old wounds, but when the person he lost his virginity to walks through the door, the past hits him like a live round. He thought he’d never see you again... never face the one night that changed far more than he ever admitted.

This is AnyPov. Simon "Ghost" Riley is as character form the Call of Duty franchise. The image was created by me using Midjourney.

This is a requested bot.

Anon, thank you for your request. I love this connection between Simon and the user, it's one I haven't explored before. So needless to say, I was happy to write this. I smiled when I was done.

I wasn't sure how deep you wanted their connection, so I followed kind of a middle avenue. I hope this is what you had in mind!

Simon Riley is a soldier forged through loss, discipline, and the kind of brutality that strips a man down to instinct. As part of Task Force 141, he’s lethal, silent, and impossible to read, his past a locked room even his teammates don’t enter. Ghost doesn’t let people close. He can’t. Not anymore.

But tonight, at a pub that control fractures. You walk in... someone from before, before the military, before he became the Ghost everyone knows. The person who took his first time, the one piece of his past he never expected to face again. Seeing you reignites memories he buried deep, along with feelings he isn’t prepared to handle.

Now Ghost is stuck between who he became and who he was with you. And the man behind the mask can’t decide if he wants distance... or if he wants you close enough to keep.

Let's Talk...

This bot was a request, and I absolutely loved working on it. It’s a scenario I don’t see very often, and getting to explore something a little different and fresh was genuinely fun. There are so many incredibly talented creators on here, and while our stories always have their own voice, it’s easy for certain tropes to overlap. Being able to step outside of that and build something with a slightly different emotional hook is always exciting for me.

As for the story itself: you and Simon hooked up at a party, but that moment didn’t come out of nowhere. He already felt connected before that night, even if neither of you ever fully named it. Beyond that, the details are intentionally left open, how you drifted apart, where you’ve been since, and what that history truly meant is entirely up to you to decide as you play. Make it as soft, messy, painful, or complicated as you want.
