The hill i’ll kill people on is that I believe in Tf 141 poly only after mw2 and during mw3 it develops— and during the betrayal au in my hc, they actually have the opportunity to grow closer but are distraught at the truth that they only had that chance because you had to sacrifice for it
Become the villain, be their object of hatred— only for it to be a facade to force a fate on you instead of Soap
It was a price you dearly paid— they paid, as they read whatever was left of your journal discovered in one of Makarov’s bases
It was a mess.
Nothing short of clean or any spot clear of paper, notes, string—
They then see the board, drawings of locations they’ve had missions to during mw2-3.
Somehow you knew everything.
And once they saw how desperate the repeated circles were drawn around Soap’s name and face, they knew it had to tied to him
So, in the midst of searching for Makarov, they’re picking up the pieces of your missions— lingering plans that still existed in his bases and slowly, they’re getting the picture
And once they get Makarov, they’ll definitely know why you had to go— why you had to leave
Why you had to die for them to be together.
Am I planning this plot like its a dual story with the squad (post-mw3) presently retracing your story while it gets recounted in a flashbacm thru the reader’s POV? (Yes— also whatta mouthful to write lol)
