#hbo band of brothers
For those who haven't read the book, I think you'll appreciate this excerpt about Babe
In the foxholes, the men tried to get some sleep, difficult to impossible given the cramped conditions. At least lying together allowed the men to exchange body heat. Heffron and Pvt. Al Vittore did manage to get to sleep the second night out. Heffron woke when Vittore threw his heavy leg over his body. When Vittore started to rub Heffron's chest, Heffron gave him a shot with his elbow in his belly. Vittore woke and demanded to know what the hell was going on. Heffron started to give him hell in return; Vittore grinned and said he had been dreaming about his wife.
"Al," Heffron said, "I can't help you, as I got combat boots, jump pants, and my trench coat on, and they are not coming off."

Drunken Confessions - Bill Guarnere x F!Reader (1st POV)
Tumblr media
Summary: The boys and reader are out for a night of fun and drinking that leaves the reader with little to no memories of what happened after she had a drinking contest with Babe. As things slowly start to drift back to her, she remembers one thing clearly; she spilled her true feelings about Bill to someone. But who did she tell?
Warnings: none really, cursing per usual. No use of y/n or physical description. She/her pronouns.
A/N: I have the biggest respect for the real life heroes of WWII (and all other wars, past & current), this work & all other works is based on the actor(s) and character(s) portrayed in the Band of Brothers series.
A/N pt2: This turned out longer than I thought it would starting out, but I let the fanfic gods guide my fingers and here we are, haha. If anyone likes this enough, I have an idea of a next day smut part 2 I can write. Comments, likes, and reblogs make my day. Thanks for reading!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wasn't sure what made me wake up. Maybe the skull splitting headache, or maybe the sun shining through the blinds hitting my face, or maybe the way I'd sell everything I owned for water or maybe my bladder being so full that a single sneeze would cause a mess. Whatever the reason, the barest of movements to open my eyelids made me want to die instantly. The only motivation I could grasp onto to get up was to empty my bladder. Dying from a hangover is one thing, dying in my own piss is not something I could ever live with. The logic of my thought made no sense, but what the hell did I care as I practically crawled to the bathroom.
Once I was relieved and able to draw the last bit of strength I had to splash water on my face and half-ass brush my teeth, I made it back to my bed with a little more dignity. Okay, it was still on my knees but at least I wasn't crawling. A win is a win. A full glass of water on my bedside table catches my eye and I down it quicker than I've ever done before, well except for maybe the drinks last night. How did this get here? No way I was coherent enough to pour a glass of water for myself to wake up to.
As I got more situated in the bed, very much facing away from the windows because I couldn't bring myself to gather any more will power to close them more properly I couldn't stop thinking about the glass of water. And then it hit me that I was not in my dress from the night before or even just my underwear but pajamas. Being aware of how little my brain and motor skills actually worked together when I'm more than tipsy, these things stood out. What the hell happened last night? I tried to focus on my last memories of the previous night hoping that would shed some light on my current situation.
~~ last night ~~
"Oh come on! Are y'all scared to lose to little ole me?" I smiled sweetly to the table, making my southern accent a little heavier to hopefully sway one of them to take on my challenge.
"None of us would lose against you, doll. We just don't want to deal with you tomorrow morning." Toye said, motioning around the table before pointing his finger directly at me. I rolled my eyes and leaned a little closer over the table.
"Nah, I'm sweet as pie darlin'. I think y'all don't want the news spreading that someone in Easy Company lost to a little farmer girl." I smirked at Toye and the rest of the men, daring them to deny it.
"Fuck it, I'll do it." Babe shot up from the end of the table and made his way over towards my section. I beamed at his cocky smiled and made shooing motions to Luz and Perco to make space so he could sit across from me. With a nod to Liebgott, I watched him go off to grab us our first rounds of beer.
As Liebgott made his way back holding two beers, I see Bull, Martin, and Bill following him from the bar.
"The fuck are you doing?" Bill's eyes bounced back and forth between me and Babe. Unsure of who was directing the question to, I shrugged and decided to answer.
"Babe thinks he can handle a drinkin' contest with me." I shoot Babe a wink as he narrows his eyes a little at me. I look back up to Bill when I hear him curse and turn more fully to Babe.
"Haven't I taught you anything? Don't start shit you can't win." He's poking Babe in the chest with every other word, making the other bat his hand away.
"Who says I ain't gonna win? Look at her, she's like a flower. This will be over by the third beer." Babe sits up straighter, setting determined eyes on me. He starts to look more annoyed than ever when Luz, Bull, and Tab start laughing.
"Anyone else, I'd say you had a chance. But she," Tab throws his arm over my shoulders, jostling me into his side, "has come the closest out of all of us to beating Bull. She lost, but damn it was amazing to watch." I give Tab a playful shove, righting myself back to a sitting position.
Babe's face has paled a little but somehow manages to look even more determined to see this through. "I'm still in."
"Perfect!" I smile at him, raising my glass to cheers him. "If I win, you have to be my shadow all day tomorrow to take care of me. If I win, you can get my cigarettes for the next two supply packages."
"Deal." Babe cheers me back, and we take our first sips of beer simultaneously. Bill looks beyond annoyed, muttering 'It's your funeral' and starts back to the bar. Bull sends me a wink, Martin a smile, and then follow behind Bill.
"Buckle up, Philly boy. You're in for a ride." I shoot a final wink at him, and then start inhaling my beer. Babe's shocked face and scramble to follow my lead is the last full coherent memory of that night.
~~
I groan in frustration as the rest of the night seems to dissolve from my mind and I can't comfortably say I know what is fiction and what really happened. I have a vague feeling dancing with Tab, Luz and Toye probably happened. Drinking usually turned to dancing in my case. I prayed that singing at the bar with Malarkey and Muck was fiction. It feels like a huge gap is missing after that (please be fictional) memory and then slivers of different memories start floating out. Suddenly I'm in a cold sweat as bits start floating in.
"He's alright but doesn't hold a candle to Bill. When he actually smiles, it's like seeing the sun shine."
"You can't tell him any of this. Swear it."
"No, I know his eyes and yours are too dark. His are warm and beautiful with small flecks of gold in them. I could drown in those eyes forever."
Fuck me, fuck my parents for having me, fuck my grandparents and ancestors for having them, fuck fuck fuck. I take it back, I'd happily sing drunk songs with Malarkey and Muck for the rest of my life if I can take those words back. And just when I thought my life couldn't get worse, I shot up in bed and another fact hits me...I don't know who I said all of those things to. FUCK!
Hours later, I'm still in bed trying to make myself remember anything about my mystery companion or at the very least come up a way to turn back time. Just as my stomach growls for the fourth time, there's a knock on my door and then it's swinging open. I jump up again for the second time that day.
"Hey sleeping beauty, how's the hangover?" Luz asks, all bright eyes and smiles as Babe follows behind him looking exactly how I feel. I shift up the bed to make room for Luz to sprawl out at the foot of the bed while Babe just curls into a ball next to me, back to the window and sunlight.
"I feel like death." I manage to croak out. It's the first time I've used my voice since passing out last night and you'd swear I smoked like a chimney from the sound.
"You look it too." Luz narrowly dodges the pillow I throw at his face. The movements cause Babe to give a pathetic whine and he curls up even more. "I don't know who pissed in your coffee, but this is not how a winner should be acting." I roll my eyes, smiling briefly as I get confirmation that I did win last night. My stomach growling again wipes it from my face.
"I'm starving. And if I won, that means you're my personal shadow all day today to help me feel better." I give Babe a small nudge, just enough to make him crack an eye open to look at me. "Y'all head down to the mess hall and get me two of everything while I get ready and meet you there."
After a few seconds of Babe making no moves to get up, Luz jumps up and all but starts dragging him towards the door. "Come on, Babe, you heard your mistress." Because his hands are full with Babe, he can't dodge the pillow I throw and gives out a low 'ow' as it connects with his face.
Just as they were about to close the door, I blurted out the question I've been trying to figure out. "Hey, who helped me home last night?"
"Not sure doll, I was playing darts with Martin, Bull and Babe." Luz almost had the door closed when he poked his back back in. "Why do you ask?"
I shrug, praying it comes out nonchalant while I'm dying inside. "Just needed to ask them a question. I think I lost something on the way home and just wondered if they knew about it." Something being my dignity. "Don't worry about it, I'll figure it out. Thanks." With a nod, Luz closed the door and left me to agonize alone.
The rest of the day was the most frustrating day of my life. Not because of the hangover, that started feeling better after I got some food and water, with a splash of hair of the dog, in me. Babe started to perk up too but was still definitely battling it so I took mercy on him and let him go back to sleep until his turn for patrol that night. I had the day off from helping Nixon censor mail and finalize reports so that didn't add to my frustrations. No, all of my frustration was because I spent the whole day tracking down the guys and asking who helped me home. They all gave the same answer: wasn't me.
Through my investigating, I was able to piece a loose timeline of the night. Once our game was over, I started dancing with Tab, the next song went to Luz, and I somehow managed to drag Toye out for the one after that. Once they all declined another song, I went to the bar to get another drink and ended up singing two bar songs with Malarkey and Muck, who afterwards started up a card game with Toye, Tab and Penkala that went on the rest of the time. I apparently stayed at the bar, chatting with Bull, Martin and Bill till Luz and Babe came over and got them to play darts the rest of the night. Liebgott kept me company at the bar, making sure I started on water but eventually left to start flirting with the barmaid that kept making eyes at him. My last hope was Perco but someone told me he left before I did to get some sleep before his morning patrol.
Just as the sun started to drift down, I was at my wits end. As a last ditch effort, I decided to write up a timeline diagram to triple check that everyone was accounted for. Surely one of the guys was lying to me and waiting to use my confessions as leverage for something. I move everything on my desk to one side and start making my diagram. By my third review of it, I can't shake the feeling that I'm missing something. So I write all of the men's names down and start checking them off as I mentally go over the stories again.
Luz...check. Bull...check. Perco...check. Babe...check. Liebgott...check. Tab...check. Toye...check. Muck...check. Malarkey...check. Martin...check. Penkala...check. There's no one left. I was just a lunatic talking to myself and somehow managed to get myself home and in bed like a sober person? Just as I was about to commit to believing that I realized I left one name off the list that didn't show up in anyone's story long enough to be crossed off. Bill...fuck.
I crumbled the paper and practically sprinted to my room, dodging soldiers and helpers like a madwoman. There was more foot traffic as the morning and evening patrol were switching foxholes and dinner was currently going. I managed to catch Babe on his way towards the mess hall and made him swear to tell everyone I was still feeling sick and would be in my room the rest of the night. Thankfully he was still feeling sick, so he took me at my word and didn't pay attention to my erratic behavior.
Back in my room I couldn't decide what I was more humiliated about; spilling my secret feelings about Bill TO Bill or being so drunk I don't know it was Bill I was even talking to. With a belly flop I landed on my bed, pressed my face into my pillow and let out a full body scream. Just as it ended there was a knock on my door.
"Go away, I'm dying." I moved my face to the side so whoever was there could somewhat hear me. It wasn't from drinking but hey, semantics at this point. The knock came again, this time more forceful. "Seriously, whoever is there just let me be." With a huff I push myself off the bed and swing open the door to reveal the cause of all my misery. Bill fucking Guarnere. Fuck me.
He's leaning against the door frame without a care in the world it seems and his signature smirk on his face. He'd never looked better. "You know my ma and sisters would come all the way over here and beat my ass if they ever found out I let a woman be miserable all alone. Especially without food." He raised a small bag to emphasize his point. Without waiting for me to answer, he brushed past me into my room and sat squarely on the bed, leaning against the wall, watching me.
Who knows how long it took my brain to send the right signals to make my body move, but eventually I broke our staring contest, closed the door and made my way to the bed. Because I was basically Nix's aid, I was able to get my own room but it was the barest of bare minimums. Side table, joining bathroom, and a bed against the wall. So the only place left to sit was on the bed with Bill, but I tried to put as much distance as I could so I sat crossed legged against the wall acting as the headboard and looked at the bag he still held.
"What's in there?" I decided the best tactic right now was to pretend nothing happened at all. So far Bill seemed to be of the same mind.
"Bread and some cheese. Didn't know how much your stomach could handle." He tossed the bag to me, nodding his acknowledgement to my quick thanks and I tore it open and started nibbling on the contents. After a few beats, he decided the best time to say something was when my mouth was completely full. "So...heard you lost something last night."
Next thing I know I really do feel like I'm dying as I choke on my bite of food, simultaneously batting away his hands that are trying to reach behind to pat my back. After I get small control over my breathing, I wipe the few tears that formed and down the rest of the water I had at my bedside. Two shaky breaths later all I can manage is squeaking out, "What?"
Bill looks at me with a sliver of concern that I'll start hacking up a lung again, but slowly his normal smirk starts to form and he leans back against the wall. "Luz said you were trying to figure out who helped you home last night because you lost something. Toye and Bull said you were pretty aggressive in your questions about everyone's activities last night. If you haven't figured it out already, I was the one that helped you get home from the bar but I don't recall you losing anything." His posture was relaxed, even lazy, but his eyes were hard and jaw was set. Challenging me to make the next move.
I cleared my throat two times, before I forced myself to speak. "Yeah, I actually figured it out a little bit ago." Bill inclined his head towards me, indicating that he wanted me to elaborate on the 'losing something' part. "I, uh, well I was just trying to figure out who helped me and didn't want Luz asking a million and one questions so that seemed the best answer."
"Why didn't you come find me once you figure it all out?" One thing about Bill Guarnere, he never pulled punches and was a hound dog when he set his mind to something.
"No reason...I, uh, well I just..." I turned all my focus on the crumpled paper bag in front of me so I didn't catch his eyes and completely spill my guts. Sober this time.
"Ah come on sweetheart, cat got your tongue now?" He moved to lean down on his arm, shifting closer to me. "Let me help you remember." With that damn, sexy smirk Bill started recounting the night before to fill in the blanks.
~~ last night, Bill POV ~~
I haven't taken my eyes off her all night. If anyone asked I'd say it was out of concern for how much she drank and watching out for a fellow soldier. That was partly true, but the majority was being jealous. Jealous for how easy she laughed and touched and moved with our friends. Don't get it twisted, we are friends too, closer than most of them but it's not as carefree as these moments I'm witnessing.
It can't be carefree because if I let my guard down for one second I'd spill my guts about how she makes me feel. How everything fades out around the edges when she gives that million dollar smile and her eyes crinkle a little at the sides. How I would do anything stupid again and again to make that little snort come out when she's laughing too hard and can't help it. How I want to protect her from this war so damn bad so I never have to see pain in her eyes. How I'd fight the entire Kraut army for the chance to kiss her just once and hold her in my arms.
But I can't say any of that because I'd rather suffer in silence than risk losing her from my life, even as just a friend. So I stay silent and keep watch as everyone around me enjoys their night without a care in the world, not knowing that my entire world is sitting at the bar alone.
She's just started on a second glass of water when some guy from Fox Company slides up next to her and starts talking. Whatever he said has her turning in her seat to point in the direction of Liebgott that left her for some barmaid. While she's focused on where Liebgott is, I'm focused on watching the guy shamelessly check her out. I down the rest of my beer, shove the glass into Luz's hand and march straight over to the bar before any of the guys can ask what I'm doing.
I make it over just as their hands connect and I can hear them exchanging names.
"I can't believe someone as beautiful as you is here all alone." I'm going to brake this guys jaw.
"She's not alone, private." I push myself to my full height and use my Sergeant's voice. This makes him stand up straighter and drop her hand.
"Bill!" She says my name with so much awe and happiness, as if she hadn't be around me in some fashion throughout the night. Being to drunk to care about policy or decorum she wraps her arms around me and gives me the prettiest smile.
"Hey sweetheart," I give her a soft smile back and wrap one arm around her shoulders, keeping her where she is. I look back at the private with a hard glare and raise an eyebrow. "Need something?"
"No sir, I just came to grab a drink. I'll, uh, I'll just get one over there." He practically runs to the other end of the bar, avoiding anymore eye contact.
A soft giggle, makes me look back down and smile again. "What's so funny, doll?"
"You didn't need to scare him, we were just talking." A piece of her hair falls against her cheek when she laughs again. I move it behind her ear, letting my finger graze her cheek before I answer.
"He wanted to do more than talk, believe me."
"What would I do without Bill Guarnere as my knight in shining armor." The smile she sends up to me is nearly enough to send me to my knees right then and there.
I wrap my other arm around her and drop a quick kiss to the top of her head. "You'll never have to find out, sweetheart. I'm always gonna be there." We stay like that for a minute, which isn't nearly long enough before I say, "Come on, lets get you to bed or you're gonna be dyin' tomorrow."
She manages to be get off the barstool and walk out of the bar so efficiently I wonder if she really is as drunk as I thought, but that hope is dashed once she stumbles over air and starts laughing. I can't help but laugh with her as I grab her hands to steady her.
"We should go dancing." She suddenly says and tries to get me to spin her.
"I don't think that's a good idea. Besides you probably want Tab for that, seems to be your favorite dancing partner. Always smiling at you and everything" I meant it to come out as a joke, but it sounded more bitter that anything. Thankfully she was in her own thoughts and didn't pick up the edge to my voice.
"He's alright but he doesn't hold a candle to Bill. When he actually smiles, it's like seeing the sun shine." She says it like it's a known fact and the most natural thing in the world for her say. It stops me dead in my tracks, which stops her because we are still holding hands.
"What did you say?" I tug her a little so she's turned around and looking at me. She gives a small shrug.
"Tab is cute and sweet but he's not Bill. I'd kill to dance with him and make him smile. It's so rare and makes my whole day when I can cause it."
"Sweetheart, you do know I'm Bill." I wait for the lightbulb to go off as she takes a step closer and looks at my face.
"No you're not, you're eyes are too dark."
"They're the same as they've been my whole life."
"No, I know his eyes and yours are too dark. His are warm and beautiful with small flecks of gold in them. I could drown in those eyes forever." She lets go of my hands and starts walking off to her billet. I know I have the goofiest smile on my face as I watch her, before it's wiped away by the realization that she can't remember who I am. Of course I finally get the girl of my dreams to confess her feelings for me and she doesn't even know it's me she's talking to.
Just as I'm catching up to her, trying to figure out what to say, she turns to me with a panic stricken face. "You can't tell him any of this. Swear it." She grasps my hands again, squeezing for dear life.
"Your secrets safe with me, sweetheart." I do my best to give her a comforting smile to ease her panic, which seems to work. We don't talk anymore the rest of the way to her billet but we do hold hands the whole way.
Once we are in her room, I can tell she's losing consciousness quickly. I find some pajamas for her to change into, helping just enough to make it easier for her change without seeing or touching anything inappropriate. As she finishes changing and crawls into bed, I fill up a glass of water and set it on the bedside table. I take one final look around to make sure she's comfortable and settled in properly before dropping a kiss on top of her head and heading to the barracks for some shut eye before my patrol.
~~ End of Bill's POV ~~
I feel my cheeks burning with embarrassment after Bill tells me the conversation we had. My eyes are firmly planted on the bag in my lap, that I've all but turned into confetti. I feel him shift on the bed again, so he's seated right next in front of me, but I can't bring myself to meet him gaze. His eyes never left my face the whole time he recounted everything and I'm too scared to look and see what emotion I'll find there. Amusement? Pity?
The decision is taken away from me when one of his hands cups the side of my neck and tips my head up to finally meet his gaze. There's a lot of emotion in his eyes, but I can't pinpoint what it is, which scares me even more.
"I'm sor-" I start to say but get cut off.
"Did you mean it?" His voice is soft but firm. He's not going to drop this and seems to be holding his breathe waiting for my answer.
"Yes." The word is barely more than a whisper but I know he heard it from the smile that takes over his face. Next thing I know he's leaning the rest of the way into my space, tilting my head to the side and softly pressing his lips to mine.
My hands reach up to fist his jacket, pulling him closer and the smallest whimper comes up when he nips at my bottom lip. My reaction seems to be all the go ahead Bill needs as he focuses on pulling me so we are flush against each other while taking possession over my mouth. At some point we rearrange ourselves to be laying on the bed, him draped over me like a second skin.
Our kisses between slow and languid to passionate and slightly frenzied. We don't know how long we stay like that, minutes or hours, but when we part our lips are swollen and we are breathing hard. Bill rests his forehead against mine and nudges my nose with his.
"Can I stay the night? No funny business, I just...now that I have you in my arms, I don't want to let you go just yet." He places soft kisses on both my cheeks and then my lips, looking at me with his heart in his eyes.
"I never want to be anywhere except your arms, Bill." I nudge his nose back and return the kiss he just gave. The smile he gives me has my heart melting and my lungs forgetting to breathe.
A few small kisses later, we've arranged ourselves into more comfortable positions; him on his back, me all but laying on top of him, our arms wrapped tightly around each other. Slowly we drift off to sleep with smiles on our faces thinking the same thing:
We have our whole world in our arms.

HC for how Dick, Lewis, Speirs, Joe, Eugene would react to crying s.o pleaseee!
Hey anon, thank you for this! I'm taking Joe as Joe Liebgott because he's my boo so I'm sorry if you meant someone else 🥺❤️
Dick Winters
He's so sweet.
He gives you his handkerchief and wraps his arms around you and lets you cry into his chest until you get it all out.
"It's alright sweetheart we can talk when you're ready"
He holds you tight and lets you know that he's there for you.
Lewis Nixon
Nix....isn't great with crying.
His usual solution is to drink away his feelings so when you start crying he's not sure what to do about it
He pats you on the shoulder and hands you a tissue and tells you it'll all be okay
He's completely hopeless to be honest.
Ronald Speirs
He's very practical about it.
He sits you down and rubs your shoulders until you get it all out.
Once you've cried it out he tells you to talk to him and tell him what's wrong.
And of course he's always got a solution on hand.
Joe Liebgott
He's such a softie
"Aw c'mere darlin' don't cry"
He pulls you in tight against his chest and kisses your cheek.
He rubs little circles on your back with his thumbs and then when you finally stop crying he swipes away the last few tears on your cheeks.
Gene Roe
"Chérie there's no need for tears,"
He kneels down in front of you and puts his hands on your face and leans in close
His thumbs just swipe across your cheeks catching all the tears until they dry up.
Then he kisses you on the forehead and pulls you in for a hug, rubbing your back soothingly.

Band of Brothers Appreciation Week- Day 1
So for day one I choose two prompts because I couldn’t decide on just one so I have chosen Scenery and Training.
Tumblr media
For ‘Scenery’ I have tried to include a scene from every episode and it’s just made me fall in love again with how cinematic and incredible y produced this show is.
Tumblr media
And here is my ‘Training’ moodboard mainly based around Camp Toccoa which happens to be one of my favourite episodes.

Shane Taylor should have won a award for his acting as Doc Roe.
He is such an amazing actor that he doesn't even have to speak a line and you know by his facial expressions just what he is trying to convey in any scene.

BoB Headcanons: How They Sleep With Their S/O
A/N: This was an idea no one asked for that came to me awhile back lol. Made in collaboration with @wwhatev3r 💖
✿ Dick Winters: Sleeps like the dead, completely still on his back. There will be points when you have to check to be sure he's still breathing bc he makes 0 noise or movement. Almost vampiric. 🤣 
✿ Lewis Nixon: Lays on his back & snores like a chainsaw. Don't let him blame you for "stealing all the blankets"; it's 100% him & you were just trying to get some back. May turn over once or twice. Wakes up in the morning in a tangled blanket-cocoon with bedhead 🤭 Doing his best.
✿ Carwood Lipton: Side sleeper, arm around your waist like a gentleman, gentle nuzzles as he's getting comfortable which turn into y'all giggling. Very soft, barely-perceptible snores. A fairly light sleeper so if you get up, he'll notice but he has no trouble getting back to sleep after.
✿ Harry Welsh: Curls almost into the fetal position, holding you insanely close. If you need to get up for any reason, good luck because you will have to Pry his arms from around you and he will groan a complaint even in his sleep. He is somehow Always cold & uses you for warmth.
✿ Ronald Speirs: Force him to sleep please or he will stay up for days. Talks in his sleep but it's just complete & utter nonsense. Mumbles everything from "peanut butter" to "window sill" to something you swear was in a different language altogether, but if you confront him about it, he will deny it. He has a badass reputation to uphold, after all.
✿ Buck Compton: Between college, the Army, & law school, this man has been TRAINED to knock-out at a moment’s notice so he Can & Will sleep anywhere: The couch, the table, on the floor, on a train, on a boat, on a plane, you name it but wherever he is, he is Dead To The World. He does grind his teeth tho (all that internal stress, poor guy 🥺); please let him be the little spoon to relieve some of that.
✿ Don Malarkey: Snack King. Will hesitate in the doorway for like 5 minutes though, weighing his options bc he'd feel bad eating without you but he'd also feel bad for waking you up. Definitely stays in the kitchen to eat so he doesn't wake you (so considerate 😍). Moderately light sleeper. He doesn't wake up for every sound but he'd hear something like the phone ringing or a door opening.
✿ Bill Guarnere: TOSSING & TURNING. This man is as active asleep as he is awake. Hope you're a deep sleeper bc he sure is! Will get up at least once to get a snack tho & will bring it back to bed with him. There will be crumbs & if you wake up, you'll probably hear him crunching away. 😆 He grew up in a busy neighborhood in Philly with a big family so he'd probably fall asleep with the TV on for some background noise, if you let him. 
✿ Joe Liebgott: INSOMNIAC. He'll lay on his back with you so you can sleep on his chest but he'll be awake most of the night, staring at the ceiling. Definitely insists on being closest to the door, just in case (so protective 🥰). Might get up once or twice but he's impossibly quiet EXCEPT when he stubs his toe/trips over something, then you'll hear a "FUCK!" or "SHIT!" from somewhere in the dark.
✿ Eugene Roe: the world's lightest sleeper. He's so used to being on-call at all hours that he'll bolt awake at the slightest sound in case someone (you) needs something. Please cuddle & reassure this boy, he needs it. 🥺 Curls up under the blankets like a kitten. Definitely makes tea before bed. It's a nightly ritual at this point.
✿ George Luz: Sleeps on his stomach, one arm dangling off the bed. Has to be touching you somehow, even if it's just his foot or an arm draped across you. Drools on the pillow (but it's cute, dw 😆). Has the CRAZIEST dreams & will wake you up to share them with you. Gremlin energy (affectionate).
✿ Shifty Powers: Keeps a glass of water by his bedside (we love a hydrated king 🤌🏼) but gets up to use the bathroom like 50 times a night. He tries so hard to slip in & out of bed quietly though, bless him, because he doesn't want to disturb you. Gentle butterfly kisses every time he gets up. What a cutie 🥺
✿ Bull Randleman: Takes up all the space on his back like a starfish ⭐ so you kinda have to sleep piled on top of him like a kitten sleeping on someone's chest 😆 He loves it though bc he gets to feel like your protector. Truly a giant teddybear 🥺🙏🏼
✿ Joe Toye: Secret snuggler. Please give this man lots of cuddles bc he needs them. Sleeps on his side & loves to hold you. Please let him be the big spoon so he can feel powerful 🤭 Occasional sleepwalker. He woke up standing in the garage one night with no clue how he got there.
✿ David Webster: Definitely reads before bed. Has a pile of books on his bedside table that he’s “been meaning to get to" but he’s always falling asleep around the halfway mark with one on his face. Pls save his place for him or he'll wake up grumpy 😅
✿ Skip Muck: THE DEEPEST SLEEPER. He wouldn't notice if the world was ending. Rolls straight off the bed during the night too. You'd wake up & peek over the edge & there he is, laying spreadeagled on the floor, still sound asleep. 🤭
✿ Floyd Talbert: Definitely a snuggler so he'll hold you from behind but if you start "accidentally" pressing your butt into him, you're gonna get him going iykwim 😏 & he's gonna start kissing your neck. Many a sleepless night with that boy lol.
✿ Johnny Martin: He tosses & turns a little but mostly just some light snoring. Totally swears by his white noise machine though; he Cannot & Will Not live without it.
✿ Babe Heffron: Very cuddly but gives off a ton of heat so prepare to sweat. The good news is that his hands are always warm! Babe is all lanky arms & legs like a baby colt so you'll probably end up tangled together during the night (so cute 🥺)
✿ Frank Perconte: Definitely kicks in his sleep. If you wake him up, he'll immediately apologize & feel really bad about it but the moment he falls asleep again, he's right back to doing it. 💀
✿ Skinny Sisk: In a Perpetual state of motion, I am so sorry. 😭 Twitches quite a bit. Snacks also have had to be banned from the bed bc he is Not Above Eating Chips under the sheets & the crumbs get Everywhere.

I can't quite believe it but I've surpassed 700 followers. I'm actually in shock. I can't believe there are over 700 of you beautiful people out there following my page. I love this community with my whole being, and I'm eternally grateful for every single one of you. ❤️
I've met some of the most wonderful people I know in this community. When I started this page, I was in a really lonely, unhappy place in my life. Band of brothers brought me happiness in a time where little else could, and I started writing on here as a way to test out my passion for writing and see if I was any good😅 I never could have imagined that it would lead me to a fandom where I would feel so welcomed, so happy and so at home.
There are far too many people that I've spoken to on here for me to mention them all, but there are a few that I've really connected with and would hope to be connected with for many years to come. @wecomrades @tvserie-s-world @ask-you-what-sir @wexhappyxfew @honey-im-hotdog @swiftwordsforwhattheyare @liebgotts-lovergirl you are the friends the universe sent to me when I needed you most and I'll always be eternally grateful for the honour of having you in my life. 💜
It's been a wild few years on here, and I'm looking forward for what's the come 💫
