when you find a fic so goddamn good, so goddamn perfect, that it literally makes you insane (i’m one chapter in) but ghost’s characterization is perfect, soap’s characterization is even more perfect AND GHOST IS TOUCH STARVED IT’S THE BEST GIFT THIS COLD HEART COULD ASK FOR!!!

obviously this is a hella biased fic rec but rowan deserves all the love always, i told her to take the idea wherever she may please and she well over delivered. it’s a very wonderful, self-indulgent final girl soap, cabin in the woods au 😈

been thinking about this fic and sighing lovingly every time i do for the past few ever-since-i-read-it and cannot reccomend enough. pop and mary are held protectively in my heart forever (soap and ghost too of course but mostly pop and mary 🤭)

#joesficrecs

y’all i cannot recommend you read this enough, i had such a blast reading it, and i just know it’s gonna be a wild ride

i mean all murph fics are chefs kiss but this one… 1000000000000000000000/10

and you should definitely check out the other fics in the series cause they’re just fabulous as well, and then while you’re at it you might as well just read all the other fic’s murph’s written 🙂‍↕️

i was feeling like a masochist and wanted some non-sexual intimacy to really push some self-angst home and this one did the trick perfectly. that soft!john soap mactavish tag does not lie.
