    Summary

    Through the spite of the spirits or plain rotten chance, a door that would have been better left untouched has opened. On the other hand, with Fire and Earth as one's allies, sometimes escaping is the easy part.

     

    Even the Dragon-King's temple floods.

    Summary

    Pinkies entwined – untwined, forgotten,
    a muddle of words hastily scrawled and undecipherable,
    Ghost would never forget, never dream of anything else –
    drowning and draining and taunting – unspeakable.
    His gilded, blood-soaked longing,
    filling the cavities with corpses;
    “I love you,” Soap smiled, all Ghost saw was blood,
    spilling out – clutching and begging and failing –
    salvation. A pathetic idea.
    Those three words of acrid love –
    they relentlessly burned themselves
    beneath Simon’s skin, and in the darkness
    he saw him – how many times had it been?
    He tightened his grip and stayed – for Johnny,
    always for Johnny – now until forever;
    “Come back to me.”
    “I will.”

    TL;DR Ghost gets stuck in a timeloop of Graves's betrayal and desperately searches for a way to get out alive. The only problem is that Soap is a stubborn soul, and so is Ghost.
