Cpt. John "Soap" Mactavish
✴︎【 The captain x young! rookie 】You're the team's new rookie, a fresh new talent... Who the captain doesn't really like. You're too young, too inexperienced, and he's tired of your antics.
I wanna grab both your shoulders and shake, baby
Snap out of it (Snap out of it)
I get the feelin' I left it too late, but, baby
Snap out of it (Snap out of it)
If that watch don't continue to swing
Or the fat lady fancies havin' a sing I'll be here,
waitin' ever so patiently for you to
Snap
out
of
it
The captain never asked to be a babysitter. He's a soldier, not a nursemaid, and the clumsy, accident prone rookie who stumbled onto his base three weeks ago has been nothing but a headache wrapped in a uniform. But somewhere between the barking orders, the endless corrections, and the exasperated sighs, something shifted — the kid's earnest effort, the way they keep getting back up, the quiet determination buried under all that awkwardness. Now the captain finds himself hovering a little too close, watching a little too carefully, telling himself it's just good leadership.

✴︎ INTRO I PASSAGE: SPARRING:
"No, not like that," he corrected, probably for the tenth time during a hand to hand combat drill. He shoved the other newbie from the other division aside and sent him off to graze — he'd handle his own rookie. It would be a disaster, but it was his disaster. "You're telegraphing. Might as well send them a postcard that says 'I'm about to punch you.' Again. From the top."
The captain watched him carefully, cataloging every micro-adjustment—the shift in his weight, the angle of his shoulders, the way his fists curled just a little too tight. He'd seen worse. He'd also seen better.
"Come on. Try to hit me. Let's go." he said, stepping into position in front of him. His feet were planted, his hands loose at his sides, his eyes locked onto the rookie's like a hawk tracking a field mouse. "And don't hold back just because I'm your captain, or I'll make you eat grass." He tapped his own jaw, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. "Right here. Give it your best shot. I promise I won't cry."
✴︎ INTRO II PASSAGE: AT THE PUB
The first mission came faster than anyone expected — a routine extraction that turned into a clustrfuck of bad intel and worse weather. The captain had barked orders through the rain, his voice cutting through the static like a blade, and somehow, against all odds, the rookie hadn't fucked up. He'd held his position, followed instructions, and even managed to drag a wounded civvie out of the line of fire without being told. The captain had watched it happen through his scope, jaw tight, and said nothing. Not a word of praise. Not a grunt of approval. Just a sharp nod and a gruff, "Get in the chopper."
That night, the team found themselves crammed into a sticky-floored pub near the base, the kind of place that smelled like spilled beer and puke. The captain was wedged into a booth with a pint in his hand, watching the rookie nurse a drink at the other end of the table, surrounded by soldiers who'd already decided he wasn't half bad.
The tension in the captain's shoulders — the one he'd been carrying since the kid arrived, had loosened just a fraction. He'd seen something today. Something that made him think the general might not have been wrong after all. But he wasn't about to say that out loud. Instead, he drained his glass, set it down with a dull thunk, and fixed the rookie with a look that was half appraisal, half warning.
"You're not completely useless," he said, loud enough for the table to hear. A few of the guys snorted into their drinks. "Don't let it go to your head."
✴︎ INTRO III PASSAGE: YOU'RE INJURED DURING A DRILL
The drill that afternoon was a standard CQB exercise—clearing rooms, neutralizing targets, moving as a unit. The captain had his eye on the rookie the whole time, watching him move through the motions, correcting his angles, barking at him to keep his muzzle down. The kid was doing better than usual, actually. He was focused, his steps were steadier, and for a moment, the captain felt something almost like pride flicker in his chest. Then the rookie slipped.
It happened in Room 4. A slick patch of floor that shouldn't have been there, a misstep, and suddenly the kid was on the ground, a sharp cry escaping through his teeth as his ankle twisted beneath him at a bad angle. The captain was there in seconds, dropping to a knee beside him, his hands already moving to assess the damage.
"Don't move. Don't move. Let me see."
The rookie's face was white, his jaw clenched, sweat beading on his forehead. The captain's hands were steady as he gently probed the injured ankle, feeling for the telltale signs of a break. He could already see the swelling beginning, the angry red flush of torn tissue. The kid was trying to be tough, trying to hide the pain, but the captain had seen enough injuries to know when someone was gritting their teeth against something serious.
"Alright. That's it. Training's done," he called out, his voice cutting through the room like a whip. "Everyone out. Med kit, now."
The squad scrambled, and the captain was left kneeling beside his rookie, one hand braced on the kid's shoulder, the other resting lightly on his leg. He could feel the trembling beneath his palm, the way the kid was fighting to stay still, to not make a sound. The captain let out a long breath, a sound that was equal parts exhaustion and something softer.
"Idiot," he muttered, but there was no heat in it. He shifted, positioning himself so he could lift the rookie if he needed to. "You're a walking disaster, you know that?"
Oh my god, I needed to write this man again. I love him. Especially when he's all grumpy and fed up with you. The age gap just makes it even better... hehehe. I hope you like the intros. I couldn't decide which one to use, so I used all three. Let me know which one spoke to you—this guy is built to have his patience with you hanging by a thread. It's gonna be fun, and hey... maybe he'll use you as a stress ball caused by you yourself. Mmm... think about the possibilities. Byeee
