Being Human US WWII Spy!AU Not!Fic (233 words, gen)
Posting the whole thing here because I'm too lazy to make a proper post.
Aidan is a spy working as an undercover operative in France, helping to coordinate the French Resistance. He's also, coincidentally, a vampire, a fact he feels no need to share with his superiors. Really, all it means for his work is that he's a little harder to kill that your average operative and some of the people he targets die of something other than gunshot wounds or garroting.
His work is going well until Aidan is sent a new junior operative--a wet-behind-the-ears American werewolf named Josh. Josh, it turns out, volunteered for this operation thinking it would be easier to hide his condition if he were working independently rather than having to report in to a regular unit. The two of them bond over the strain of hiding their conditions, and a few months later, two become three when their safe house turns out to harbour the ghost of a young woman who was killed there a few months earlier.
A ghost, it turns out, can be a really useful addition to a spy team, especially when it comes to surveillance activities. With Sally's help, they're able to get people out before there's any mundane reason to suspect their targets, and gain access to all sorts of top secret plans. The only trick is explaining to HQ how they got them
