—— 1 year anniversary to Landslide [BOB FIC]

Wow! 1 year! I can’t even believe that just last year, I was sat in a lake house, in the late hours of the night, trying to figure out what idea was going to be my next for another Band of Brothers story! I remember the moment and where I had been sitting when the idea hit and looking back, I’m so glad it hit when it did. Landslide is far from that little idea I got in that lake house, but has continually developed, grown and changed in ways I look back and can’t even begin to think about how it even happened!

Natia Filipska has been a character that I will cherish close to my heart. Of course, I adore my other OCs and will always love them, but Natia holds an even more special place there in my heart because of the challenge in writing she has offered me. She gives me a challenge everyday - whether it’s having to rewrite a scene 5 times because “it’s just not her” or completely starting over a chapter because knowing Natia, she’d have a better way to get out of this situation.

I’ve also made one of my absolute favorite ships, coined “Fliptoye” by a few readers (you know who you are hehe) and it has grown to truly be a favorite of mine for so many reasons. There was no “love at first sight” or really anything like that. Just two human beings realizing they genuinely care for each other and enduring both the struggles and hardships that come along with realizing in war, you care for something that war can also touch. That for one of the first times it is not longer just about you or the buddy next to you. Natia Filipska and Joe Toye have been a joy to write!

And of course there was the month of disliking Richard Winters, the iconic nickname of “Mapkeeper” for Lewis Nixon, the Roman History nerd jokes that have now developed with Ronald Speirs, the slow start of some sort of friendship because of cracking a joke about Nix with Harry Welsh, and the comfort of a friend from Carwood Lipton.

Even Joe Liebgott and Natia Filipska have swiftly become a favorite duo and I can completely agree. Getting to see where they started and where they are now — from seeing their differences and arguments and heavy weighted disagreements to know finding ways to comfort each other even in the midst of war and making sure the other is okay and even eating. They’ve definitely been one of my favorite duos to go through that sort of character arc together.

AND OF COURSE, we can not forget one of the most important driving forces in the fic, Death, himself (alongside the sarcastic bits of War haha), most importantly the personification of Death. What draws me to a character like him, is more than anything the fact words can not be communicated between Natia and Death yet they hold such a strong willed connection, that you almost don’t need to worry about words. Each layer that builds with their connection, leads for an even darker end and makes Death even more fascinating in the end.

You can’t forget a guy like Agent Mortem! Without him Natia and Agent “Fidel” wouldn’t be here right? Right? Right….? Well…..anyway…..even with who he is and his partially uncovered past, Agent Mortem remains a heavy asset to Landslide as the leading cause for WHY Natia could possibly even be the way she is and to provide backstory on a multitude of other things, and for reason for Natia to have her redemption. There’s so much unexplored. And I’m so ready to talk about it! :D

Landslide has challenged me in ways I can’t even begin to describe both mentally and emotionally with my writing. I’ve had to rewrite, rework, edit over and over just to get it right but at the end of the day, it is always worth it. In some ways I don’t even know what else to say, and almost think the story can speak for itself! It is made for you to interpret it they way you wish to interpret it, there’s no right way to see who Natia is or what Landslide is about — whether for you it be about family, friendship, love in war, darkness and overcoming that, the struggles of mental health, finding your own inner peace or independence….whatever it may be, I hope it has possibly even helped you somehow in anyway :) Even with the MAJOR HECKING ANGST (LMAO💀) or the extremely sad parts (that honestly are probably just super sad to me LOL), it still is a fic full of lessons and stories equally about someone like Natia!

I can’t WAIT for whatever else this story has to bring to the table! With still a bit of writing for the future to go, it makes me so incredibly hopeful for an end in sight on both Landslide and Natia’s character and peace for all those lost throughout the story <3

Thank you to EVERY single person who took a chance with Landslide and took a read, if you were from Day One, saw it while scrolling through Wattpad or AO3 or Tumblr, or even saw the Spoon meme! I appreciate each and every single one of you! Whether you voted, commented or left a kudo, or just even took a read! I appreciate you SO MUCH! I can’t even begin to describe the joy this story has brought me and the challenges as a writer it has provided. I’m hopeful for the rest of this fic and hopefully for one or two more to come!

Special shout-out to @vintagelavenderskies for being by my side with this project since like DAY ONE?!?! EVEN BEFORE DAY ONE?!? I don’t even know but just genuinely for so long, how could I not tag you! You always are just so excited to hype me up as well as Natia (the lil bean) and give me support and comfort for whatever I was doing (especially that support, there was some rough moments throughout the year and the fic lol!) I just can’t thank you enough for your friendship and joy you’ve brought to me! <3 Thank you my friend, so so much, for everything! :D

I’ll also shoutout a few more lovely people who have just been…..absolutely wonderful in providing both support, or insight, wonderful commentary or just sweet messages throughout writing this! @tvserie-s-world (thank you for all the moodboards!!)@wecomrades @stressedinadress (credit do you my friend for og fliptoye name!!) @pxpeyewynn @whoahersheybars @kryzes @holdingforgeneralhugs @martinsrestingbitchface @whovian45810 @geniedocroe @thoughpoppiesblow @how-are-those-nuts-sarge @alienoresimagines @alejodi0nysus @brichard-bwinters and just genuinely anyone else who even sent me a small ask or message, I appreciate it so much and your support or love or help in anything Landslide-related, helped me more than anything! <3

THANK YOU! TO ALL OF YOU! I don’t know what else to say except thank you. Thank you for letting me bring who Natia was, alive through this fic as well as her spirit and compassion of ending the war. Along with her friendships of Easy Company and hardships of both her past and mental health. It’s been an honor and privilege — here’s to many more! ✨

Happy reading! <3

Landslide | Chapter 51 | For My Wayward Heart

"The coffin, it shall protect me, though Death himself lies in it"

― Erich Maria Remarque, All Quiet on the Western Front  

In just a matter of hours and a few words uttered by a Sergeant there in the makeshift movie room, the lives of Easy Company and the life of the war had changed drastically. She had been warm, with socked feet, and wondering what she'd decide to have for breakfast the following morning. Now, she had her arms locked across her chest, eyes narrowed incessantly forward on nothing in particular, and two dog tags that held her life wrapped around her neck. 

Captain Nixon had told her not to worry of these advancing movements in the Ardennes. She'd always worry, it was in her blood, but she had let her guard drop below normal and had let herself think for a moment she was entirely safe. She was never safe in war and she never had been. 

From the loss of her parents, to being across an ocean and safely secluded in the clay home of Pollards Park with Agent Mortem, to traveling across the Alps, and the entirety of continental Europe - she'd never been safe. If anything, safety had only come when the allusion of it had been presented right in front of her face. She felt safety would come only when the war was really over.

Landslide | Chapter 47 | Of Pistols and Piano Keys

"We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy." 

- George R.R. Martin

The days had grown shorter by the cusp, night falling faster than would've liked, but it meant they would be going to a restaurant soon, where Natia knew there would be an ounce of warmth. She couldn't promise herself food entirely, she was still meandering through small portions in attempt to get herself on the record again - it was progress this morning with Lip she had to admit.

" Hey, Fidel," a voice said and Natia looked up in the lights of the nightlife in Paris and found Heffron hanging back a bit from where the rest of the group chattered, led most likely by George Luz himself in some frolicking story of his youth.

" Hey, Heffron." she said, arriving at his side, noticing that with his long legs, he maintained a slower pace with her - she had to smile.

" Oh, no, no, don't worry about the Heffron bullshit, Babe's just fine - might even keep some of those pestering glances from some of the other 82nd guys wandering around from ya too."

Landslide | Chapter 41 | Alone in the Shadows

"And the danger is that in this move toward new horizons and far directions, that I may lose what I have now, and not find anything except loneliness."

― Sylvia Plath 

The loose helmet on her head, paired with the pelting rain water that felt like ice against her frozen skin, the ODs fastened up tightly around her body, the radio upon her back, combined with her narrowed gaze, it was clear Lieutenant Dike was not a fan of the mysterious woman who went by Agent and refused a title other than that. When Lip had introduced the two that morning, Lieutenant Dike had looked at her as if he were confused by her presence.

" Agent Fidel." she offered as he watched her, tilting his head briefly to the side.

" What are you doing in the Army?" What are you, she wished to ask him, as the men, frozen to the bone stood out in basic ODs under the rainy weather, watched with cold expressions as Natia stood with Lieutenant Dike.

Landslide | Chapters 39 + 40 | My Fear-Laced Veins | From the Wounds of War

"Sometimes it is easier to feel the veins wilted and empty than to sense the coldness of blood in fear."

― Munia Khan

The coffee felt cold. 

Even though it was warm. 

She felt cold though - every inch of her body covered in rain water. 

The nurses had begun to fuss when her and Liebgott had come trailing in, her face sheet white, her eyes wide and fear lacing her veins. And now the duo sat side by side on her bed, blankets wrapped tightly around their figures with the pipping hot coffee in their grasps from a couple of the Salvation Army women who would drop off doughnuts and coffee when they could.

Landslide | Chapters 35 + 36 | Of Fire and Ice | The Violence of Self-Destruction

"Some old wounds never truly heal, and bleed again at the slightest word."

― George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones

The sun would be rising soon.

The cold of the night was beginning to wear off finally, the bitter chill of rain dripping down the soldiers' backs a distant memory. But Natia could still let out a puff of air and see it rise into the indigo sky.

She sat beside George again, the usual passing of the cigarette becoming something like a tradition when there were no words for the 5 am cigarette except to pass something warm between the hands of another you cared for. The intimacy of a cigarette being passed in the silence of unanswered questions between two exhausted people.

i’ve been watching BoB for a while now but i only started writing for the fandom a few months ago :)!

as a girl who can’t muster up any motivation, are there any tips from all the wonderful BoB writers on this app?

[kryzes]

What the fic is gonna be about;)?

to sum it up: a vengeful polish-korean female fighter pilot, a caring latvian-english nurse, and a know-it-all flight lieutenant find themselves stuck at the hip with american paratroopers after a devestating crash leaves them the only three alive.

in other words: clementine roams around europe with not one, not two, but a band of dumbasses.
