Another stupid height difference joke! (I will never stop)

#ghostsoap
141 are on a last minute commercial flight and Ghost is crammed into his seat feeling very sorry for himself. 🧼: "No wonder they usually stick you in the cargo transports, Lt." 🧼: "Not so high and mighty now eh, big guy?" Soap sits down 💀: "Go fuck yourself, Johnny" 🧼: "Not my job, if I recall" 🧼: "Told you to switch with Gaz for the aisle seat, coulda stretched out those legs" 💀: "And become a tripping hazard for the flight attendants? Un-fucking-likely" Gaz sits down next to them Over the intercom: "[...] and please ensure all your small belongings are secure" 💀 pulls 🧼 close 🧼: "?" 💀: "Do you feel secure?" 🧼: "..." 💀chuckling 🧼: "OI!!" 🧼: "CALL ME SHORT ONE MORE TIME YE OVERGROWN-" Gaz, interrupting (knowing damn well he encouraged them to get together): "Stop acting like an old married couple" 💀 🧼: "Shut up, Gaz."

"The price of your Nature"

I've been a little upset at the world lately, so uh... personal work?
A painting featuring a four-armed spirit of nature tenderly 'helping' a greedy 'king' into the next life. She's holding a set of scales that drip blood. The man is lying on a forest floor littered with human skulls. It's all a very thinly veiled metaphor for a rich governing minority making careless, devastating decisions that affect all of us and have the potential to ruin our planet c: (I have been a little bit upset with the world, idk if that shows (°◡°)

A painting of a woman in black armour and dark skin with a sword over her shoulder and her feathery dragon companion. The feathers on the dragon shift colours like opals in the sun A painting of a dragon ranger and her companion, a young red dragon. They're looking out over a sea of clouds. A painting of Ghost, leaned up against a broken piece of concrete as some imaginary spooky skeleton men come to bother him An illustration of a huntress crouched in shadow and flanked by her two noodly companions. They're eel-gator-hounds, a species I made up for this project <3

💀: "I've felt worse things..." (he gently touches the scar on the side of Soap's head) 🧼: "Who bit-" (looking at a bite scar on Ghost's wrist) 💀: "That one was me. After.." 💀: "Didn't have enough water in my system for good enough flow so... Didn't stick" 🧼: "Simon.." *sad puppy noises* 💀: "That's enough history for today" 🧼: "Yea.. I love you" 💀: "I love you too" 🧼: "You know this means I was right" 💀: "Yea? 'bout what?"

Hurt/Comfort #ghostsoap

CW: Ghost's backstory and all the Horrors™ that entails, implied/referenced attempted suicide
Three comic panels. Ghost and Soap are on leave, staying in their cabin in Scotland. They're having a little lie-in. 🧼: "Can I ask about them?" 💀: "The scars? 'Course you can" 🧼: "How'd you get this one?" (Scar on Ghost's chest) 💀: "Knife fight 6 years ago" 🧼: "This one?" (Scar on Ghost's face) 💀: "My father. Broken beer bottle" 🧼: "This?" (Scar on Ghost's throat) 💀: "Op in Russia. Awful intel, never seen Price that angry before" 🧼: "Is this one from..." (Scar on Ghost's side) 💀: "Yea, that's from Mexico... Meat hook through the ribs. Bit ironic in hindsight" 🧼: "Bleein' christ, Simon.. That sounds fucking awful"

Also, "MINI COMIC"??? 5 pages is NOT mini, past me. So many panels 🥹

#ghostsoap
WIP image of a comic page! Soap's real dialogue is replaced with "this is so much fucking work what the hell was I thinking". WAY too detailed to be a comic style, I'm girlbossing too close to the sun, gang
