Peri Non Morso

Summary:

John 'Soap' MacTavish is a rare omega, one that took on the vows 'peri non morso.' "Die unbitten." Omegas like Soap, trained to use their omega status to their advantage, don't take on those vows lightly, and Soap intends to live and die by them. Omega operators that actually pull it off are something of a myth.

Chapter 1: Introductory Author's Note

Chapter Text

This would not have gotten done without SniperAnon (Slappy).  It's not our usual collab, and the bulk of the writing (and the less elegant word choice) is mine.  But Slappy came in absolutely clutch in the last few romance chapters.  So if Ghost seems familiar, it's because Slappy pushed it over the finish line when I stalled out.

Similar to The Deep End, I've included some details beyond the tags for nuance.

-Due to the omegaverse, there are sometimes nonconsensual elements to sexual interactions on both sides.  All on screen sex is consensual.

-Because this is the military-industrial complex in the omegaverse, there are horrific things treated casually, including loss of bodily autonomy.

-Ghoap is the end game, but we side track into a consensual Graves/Soap romance as part of the plot.  Also, Ghost and Soap continue to be very firmly unhinged.  Though less explicitly than in other stories.

-I was watching SAS Rogue Heroes while writing part of this, and you can tell.

-In traditional CoD fashion, sections of dialogue were pulled directly from the game and then altered to fit.  This is especially true for the Mexico missions.

-I did the Latin translation myself, but it's been a couple of decades.  If it's wrong don't tell me.
