Um here’s my own BoB headcanons???

1 am version 🥴

Cred to the first person who did this

- Baberoe (OTP, the ship that got me into the show, my love, my life)

- shifty totally has religious trauma and internalized homophobia- fight me.

- Webster, Speirs, and Nixon all had abusive dads who were married to women who were emotionally unavailable

- I cannot get over the fact that Lipton’s real name is Clifford Carwood Lipton and I have a feeling that Nixon finds out his real name is Clifford and does not let it go

- winters is a big supporter of lesbians - idk why but he just seems vvv supportive

- liebgott and Webster argue in public but they do it IN GERMAN SO THEY SOUND EVEN CRAZIER

- Nixon went to rehab and goes to therapy weekly which was suggested by the one and only Richard winters

- Ron actually loves to bake and will bake when he’s stressed so one day lipton will return home for work and find twenty pies and at least six cakes and Ron covered in powder like “heyo!”

- TOYE CALLS GEORGE GEORGIE PERIODT END OF DISCUSSION

- Toye is actually a big softie and loves to be physically affectionate but is afraid he’ll get teased

- I have this hc that Toye was a wee bit drunk and was out with Luz and the gang and kept kissing George’s cheek or his lips and saying he loved him so so much- guarnere won’t let it go

- I have a hc that babe and guarnere are the kind of friends who decide to raise a baby together impulsively at 3 am. They don’t actually but they have discussions like they would.

- Gene lowkey practices witchcraft- FIGHT ME

- babe loves watching gene do witchy things

- baberoe Halloween AU (*screams*)

That’s all for now :)

Lily’s War (Chapter 3)

Summary: SOE Agent Lily Darlington is unexpectedly demoted from her position and offered a life changing opportunity to become the first female Paratrooper in US history?

Pairing: TBD - The suspense is part of the fun, no?

Warnings: Mentions of violence, language, Mentions of SA

A/N: Here is chapter 3! I’m so sorry for the wait. I hit huge slump of writers block, coupled with 14 hour days at work (tv industry problems), but its finally here, and I really hope the next part will be worth the wait. 

Chapter 1 / Chapter 2

Chapter 3.

Camp Toccoa, 1942. 

Private Lily Darlington was a smart enough young lady to know that going in as the sole female, and joining an entire, and somewhat established company of men, was never going to be a doozy. What she hadn’t anticipated however, was just how much of an utter shit show the first weeks would turn out to be. Having worked the best part of three years within a male dominated organisation, where you wouldn’t have a place at the table if you didn’t deserve to be there, being thrust back to the beginning was a stark reminder that misogyny was alive and well in the US Army. 

From her very first day, the men had built up an idea of her. Lily found it important to make note that not a single man had yet spoken to her during this time frame, or any time after, however, they believed themselves to know everything about her without actually getting to know her. The gossip among the men on how they perceived a woman to be in the face of war was not one of glowing promises. Hours wasted pinning her hair, tears shed at the possibility of ruining one’s meticulously on trend manicure. There had been a bet as to how long the girl could get up Currahee before collapsing, with no man wasting a bet on if she’d make it to full pack. Issuing her with a rifle would be simply unthinkable, women are soft and gentle, not trained to kill, she would be a danger to herself, and others if she got her hands on one. How would it be possible for a young woman to share a barrack with eleven other men. Young men, who smoked, cussed, gambled, and talked about things women ought not to hear. She wouldn’t stick it out, that was for certain, they gave her one week with Sobel to throw in the rag, War was no place for her, and Easy wouldn’t be her Company.

Much to their disappointment, the young girl made it past their premature deadline. By no means had it been easy, but she wasn’t failing like the men had initially assumed, and yet, her progress only seemed to make their dislike of her increase growing more and more evident by the day. Introductions were slim to none, most the men had made it quite clear that they weren’t interested in becoming friends, and she had resorted to getting to know her fellow company by the names painted on their footlockers and by listening into conversations she wasn’t privy to. Incidentally, on the first night, she discovered her belongings had been unceremoniously moved to the far end of the bunk house. Next to the seemingly loudmouthed Private Guarnere, and opposite Private Liebgott, a chap who’s dislike for her rivalled that of all the others combined, neither of the two were overly gracious about sharing their space, it seems that they had lost a bet in which she was the punishment. Suffice to say that they didn’t spent their evenings trading secrets and braiding each others hair, though she did overhear Liebgott mention his interest in shaving hers off when he thought she was asleep that first night. She’d resigned to sleeping facing him, with her hair firmly tucked under the covers in an attempt to deter him ever since.
