Summary
Ghost, under threat of another psychological evaluation from both his CO and therapist, has been forced to partake in a penpal programme with another soldier in order to "practise empathy" and "re-establish human connection." He hates it until he doesn't.
MacTavish willingly volunteers for the SAS's new penpal programme because what the hell, it could be fun. And when his penpal ends up being adorably emotionally constipated, well, that certainly doesn't hurt.

Summary
Curly's final moments are in the confining mechanics of his cryopod. Or at least, it should have been. But fate is a strange thing. Time fractures, bends, loops back in on itself, and somewhere in the rift, ends up right where you started. Whether by miracle or curse, two members of the Tulpar crew regain memories they were never meant to keep. Forcing them to confront the truths, betrayals, and choices that led them.
