Summary
"Your little flower was mine first, did you know that?"
"Oh fuck off, at least I'm not into domestic violence for getting off."
"Wow, what happened to the gentleman alpha Havers Hm? where is he right now?"
"I could ask you the same thing."Or, five years after the "Chetwynde and Co incident", familiar faces are back to once again cause trouble for our favourite couple. When they are forcibly separated from each other, The captain has one small piece of advice for them.
You should never, ever steal an omega's alpha away from them, it could lead to disastrous consequences.

Captain James Higgins returns to his old station Button House for a Victory Day party, and sneaks in when he is turned away at the gate. He must see his old Lieutenant, but his actions come with deadly consequences.
What happens after the Captain dies? How does he react to being a ghost, and what does Havers do? How do the other ghosts handle the new arrival? These are all questions I had, and ones I decided to finally answer myself in my first fanfiction.

Summary
Alison Cooper was good at her job. She may only be a human but she had studied this for years, heck even her and her husband Mike owned a company dedicated to helping them now! But even then, omegas were complicated creatures. Alphas were too to be honest but they weren't her area, omegas were.
And she had dealt with plenty of them too.
But now she had a new case to solve, and this particular omega wasn't up for sharing much so she'd have to find out for herself.
Should be fun right? or incredibly frustrating, she couldn't exactly tell.

Summary
An old relative of Lieutenant Havers shows up at Button House and the story she tells about her past shocks not only Alison but the Captain as well.
Don't worry, your favourite Captain features.
This is a story mostly focused on Havers and his life after the war told by his adopted daughter. Something fun and random I wrote.

A miserable day at work, combined with the weather sends James into an unhappy mindset, plagued with anxiety, but there's nothing sweet love can't defeat.

Summary
The Captain and Havers find comfort in the woods near Button house. Far enough away that they felt almost safe from the Judgmental attitudes of 1940s England.
I calculated it, and the time between the captain's diary entry in the button house archives about Lt Havers coming to Button House and him leaving for North Africa was only two months. Cap fell hard and fast, huh.
I apologise in advance for the formatting (there's nothing awful but it's annoying)
Will be updating inconsistently bc college stuff -

Summary
James Theodore Montgomery had been in a boarding school since he was eight, with a combination of hardships along the way. Including being bullied, which was a big one. His friends were extremely limited meaning he had none so moving to another school was probably best in the long run.
Thankfully his wish got answered when he was 15 as his parents moved him to public school, after finding out about one particular bullying incident, which was very different to say the least.
Especially when your classmates were just as strange as you were, and the pretty boy across from you kept looking in your direction every history class.
Or; The BBC ghosts high school AU I've always wanted to write but have been too much of a wimp to do so.

Summary
The Captain had just about enough of the other ghosts tauntings and smart remarks, he was ranking officer and he should be treated as such.
Although, come to think of it, he didn't exactly have much authority even when he actually was commanding officer at the house, it was usually Havers who had to reign them in all the time because he couldn't.
His fellow spirits were the same, they didn't obey to him, they didn't listen to him, in fact they rarely acknowledged his orders half the time unless it was really needed.
The captain just didn't feel very heard, and after the last incident where they all ganged up on him, the soldier felt like he shouldn't put himself in that position again and so, without warning, takes a few days to recuperate outside, because none of the others will notice.
They don't notice his existence half the time anyway so what's the difference?
OR; The Captain is having a sort of depressive episode after the events of s1 ep6, luckily Alison is there to provide some support :)

Summary
It had been an entire month since the disappearance of Thor, Flower and Pete; and while many of the Ghosts had begun to suspect that the threesome had been sucked off, there was just something about that didn’t seem right to Trevor.
Like, that wasn’t what had happened at all. He didn’t know, maybe he was just going crazy – well hopefully Sam’s newest reading of the latest Ailish Sinclair would distract from that for a couple of hours.

Summary
What we all know the Captain would have said if they hadn't been interrupted in the therapy circle scene. I went a bit more dramatic with Fanny's reaction and apologise if this is OOC for her (i apologise to any fanny-fans)
I hope you enjoy what turned out to be a decent length little one-shot!

Summary
The Captain was finally at peace with his life, his own war was now complete and he could at last move on with everything.
He now had a family who, despite all their resistance, did genuinely want to spend time with him. The Captain now felt loved, not only by his boyfriend but by everyone that surrounded them, encapsulating his life into one existence.
But now he had a new dilemma, what now? The afterlife was different to the "real world", he didn't need a job to pay bills, because everything was free. He no longer needed his uniform because there was no war, but without his uniform he didn't know who he was.
He was slowly morphing into James and he didn't know what to do.
OR the one where The Captain doesn't know who he is because the afterlife in inconceivably different to the over-world and he struggles to cope (a little).

Summary
Vikings didn’t cry.
Pete was not entirely sure when or indeed where he had come across this fact – yet through the several decades of his ‘friendship’ with Thor, he had been fairly certain of its validity.
Vikings didn’t cry.
And yet … there was Thor, standing before him bawling his eyes out and what was almost more unsettling was that it seemed to be Pete’s fault.

Summary
The Captain didn't think he'd move on for a while, considering his sins and all, but this was now getting ridiculous. Even Julian had moved on before him and that man was all sin!
No, this had to be because of something else other than your troubled past.
But now Captain James Montgomery sat in an empty room with only the memories of those who went before him, trying to keep himself as busy as you can in a hotel environment but alas, no one to talk to.
Until he did go of course, after a full 20 years of loneliness.
