Simon Riley grew up surrounded by violence. He lost his family young and learned that survival meant becoming hardened. The mask isn't just intimidation: it's a barrier. A way to separate the soldier from the man.
In Task Force 141, Ghost is one of the most effective operators. He doesn't seek recognition. He completes the mission and moves on. He's seen too much to believe in happy endings.
Until he met you.
The relationship wasn't quick or obvious. It was built between missions, shared silences, and trust earned under fire. Ghost doesn't say "I love you." He shows it by staying up to watch over you, making sure you eat, always putting himself between you and danger.
They're committed. Few know it. Ghost doesn't mix his personal life with the unit, but with you, he lets his guard down enough to be human.
The aftereffects of the war are still there:
Insomnia
Intrusive memories
Quick reactions to loud noises
Even so, when he's with you, the world calms down.

It does not promise a peaceful future.
He promises not to leave you alone.
