Band Of Brothers characters as quotes from The Office™️
Luz: “I talk a lot, so I’ve learned to tune myself out.”
Speirs: “Would you rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me.”
Muck: “I’m not superstitious but I am a little stitious.”
Nixon: “I am running away from my responsibilities. And it feels good.”
Sobel: “And I knew exactly what to do. But in a much more real sense, I had no idea what to do.”
Babe: “And I feel God in this Chili’s tonight.”
Guarnere: “Guess what, I have flaws. What are they? Oh, I don’t know. I sing in the shower. Sometimes I spend too much time volunteering. Occasionally I’ll hit somebody with my car. So sue me.”
If I ever met a relative of Easy Company, I would put my AO3 in a power point and show them
no because someone screen shotted my tumblr posts and sent them to the family of the vets and lemme tell you i got a very interesting message from Bill Guarneres granddaughter
PLEASE share this with me
so yuh basically i had said that Bill Guarnere was kinda fruity and someone saw it and posted it to facebook where the vets families saw it. Guarneres Granddaughter tracked it back to my instagram account and reached out- she now follows me and everything’s all good but it was terrifying in the moment. but anyways just be careful cause we are taking creative liberties with real people <333

When you think about kids like that, and you realize the weight of your responsibility and do something about it, you soon become old beyond your years. In three years, I had aged a great deal. Still only twenty-six years old, I felt that the simpler times of my college experience and the days of civilian life when I did as I pleased, were long past. It must have been a dream, a small and short but beautiful part of my life. Now all I did was work—work to improve myself as an officer, work to improve my soldiers as fighters, and work to develop them as men. The result was that I was old before my time; not old physically, but hardened to the point where I could make the rest of them look like undeveloped high school boys; old to the extent where I could keep going after my men fell over and slept from exhaustion, and I could keep going as a mother who works on after her sick and exhausted child has fallen asleep; old to the extent where if it was a decision or advice needed, my decisions were taken as if the wisdom behind them was infallible. Yes, I felt old and tired from training these men to the point where they were now efficient fighters. I hoped that the effort would mean that more of them would return to those girls in the States than otherwise would have made it back to the comfort of their families and friends.
