Price giving out stickers to the 141. Colourful little circles saying "well done!", "good job!" or with a smiley face, and the team gets REALLY competitive for them.
The sticker pack was bought months ago when Price was on leave. He saw it in a small crafts shop and remembered an ex of his - a primary school teacher - had said it worked wonders for their class. With a grin, he paid, packing the stickers safely in his bag to take back to base and thinking himself the funniest man alive.
It took a while for him to reveal the stickers to his team. To be honest, by the time he'd dealt with all the inevitable chaos that happened whilst he was away, he was too tired to care about the stickers when he finally got round to unpacking his bag again. It wasn't until several weeks later that he brought them, smuggled under his jacket, into a briefing room, ready to congratulate the boys on another successful mission and showcase his little joke.
"Fuck me, Cap." Ghost had, of course, been the first to notice when Price placed the sticker pack on the briefing room table. The latter had chosen a moment when everyone was nattering with each other about the mission - or about something, anyway; he drowned out Soap and Gaz's playful arguments most of the time.
Ghost's lighthearted exasperation caught the others' attention, and to say the three sergeants' eyes lit up would be an understatement. Roach was the first to lunge towards Price - eyes fixed on the stickers as if they were prey - quickly followed by Soap and Gaz. The Captain had to snatch the little booklet off the table and hold it above his head at lightning speed to avoid a catfight over it.
"It's only if you're good!" He scolded, attempting to push off a very fixated Gaz from practically climbing up his gear to get to the stickers.
The boys start doing counterproductive shit to try and get stickers. Soap blows up considerably more stuff than before in attempts to impress Price; Ghost brings him more tea than he is physically capable of drinking; and he swears Gaz and Roach have mentally transformed into two needy cats that are constantly under his feet.
From day two of the Curse of the Stickers (TM), Price is instantly regretting his actions. His team's pestering is only making him give out less stickers, which in turn makes the pestering worse. It got to the point where he awarded Roach a sticker for falling asleep just because it meant that he wasn't bothering him.
(This all continued for years btw. Every time the novelty of the stickers started to fade, someone would get one for doing particularly well on a mission and suddenly the competition would pipe back up again. Price never forgot about the stickers because their faces when he gave them one was so innocently happy. He loved seeing his men be boys again even just for a moment)

Our Flag Means Death Daemon au
Because I am absolutely off my rocker, I've decided to throw together a daemon/his dark materiel/golden compass au for OFMD. Has this been done before? Probably. Here's my take on it :)
Put under a cut because I did do the entire crew of the Revenge+others
Stede: Atlantic Puffin
Edward: Bengal cat
Izzy: Skunk
Jim: Mongoose
Olu: Elephant
Fang: Border collie
Ivan: Turkey vulture
Frenchie: Aye-Aye
Buttons: Seagull
Wee John: Dormouse
Pete: Miniature pinscher
Lucius: Kea
Swede: Silk moth
Roach: Racoon
Jackie: Wolverine
Jack: Calico cat
Plot wise it'd be pretty much the same just with daemons running around. I'll probably draw something for it at some point. However this took over an hour to throw together so I am EXHAUSTED
Feel free to talk to be about this(please do I'm staring at you with my big eyes)

"I wish roach was in the reboot" I do not I am already dreading activision giving my son a voice. Roach is mute and communicates via sign language or other non verbal means and if I have to hear him speak I'll help shepherd kill him again myself.
