A couple of days after I met Richard Speight [Jr.], who played our buddy Skip Muck, he said “Babe, have you seen the cuts?” I said, “No.” He said, “Well, do you remember the other day when you told me about you and Muck receiving communion up in the woods in the snow in Bastogne, and what you said to Muck—that if you died, you would die in a state of grace?” He said to me, “Babe, I never forgot you telling me that. So when we shot that scene with Father Maloney giving communion, I put that in myself. I turned to the character Babe, and said, ‘Well, Heffron, if we die, we’ll die in a state of grace’.” Richard Speight [Jr.] did that on his own. That really affected me.

hii Cammy!!! thanks for asking ❤️

(2) show us a picture of your handwriting?

I have two moods...

Being organized / Giving a f*CK about that

(12) what’s some good advice you want to share?

Trust your own path without worrying what other people are doing or saying. That includes not comparing yourself with others.

(24) what’s one thing you’re proud of yourself for?

I've already answered this one so I'm gonna say something different :) I am proud that I did not give up editing, despite the things my own family told me. Editing makes me happy, and I never stop learning.

(34) any pet peeves?

Oh, god. I hate slow walkers. You know when you're trying to pass them but they're taking up the WHOLE sidewalk? I get impatient. (ngl I'm a fast walker).

Dog owners not picking up after their pets.

People who smoke in front of me.

Rude people. People! :D

Spitting in public areas. GROSS.

25, 26 and 22

hi Alexi!! thanks for asking 💞

(25) fave season and why?

that's funny, we only have two seasons! wet season and dry season. I'd say wet season cause I love the rain. It is comforting to me. alas we're in the dry season and THIS SUN IS SLOWLY KILLING ME, PLS SAVE ME. I CAN'T HANDLE IT ANYMORE.

(26) fave colour and why?

Navy blue. Well, honestly, all kinds of blue! Idk why, I just love it haha. It's peaceful, reliable... and you can admire it a lot in nature.

(22) say 3 things about someone you love

...I won't expose myself more than I've already done haha 😆 Hm, 3 things about Lipton that I love!!

His kindness, that man is always willing to help, I could write an essay about it (and how he sacrifices himself for the people he cares about).

His smile... muá!! what can I say? muá!

How he manages to stay positive and encouraging. This?? "Fear is poison in combat. Something we all felt but you just didn't show it. You can't. It's destructive, and it's contagious." this man KNOWS what he's doing.

I have more reasons but I don't want to bore you 🫶

[liptonwashere]

Hello Sam!! I hope you’ve been well ❤️ 1, 5, 6, 15, 17, and 24 for the ask game please, my love!!

Hi Louuu!! ❤️ Hoping the same for you my dear. Thanks for asking :)!!

(1) what are 3 things you’d say shaped you into who you are?

this is going to be sad, isn't?

first, not a thing. my favourite person. she is no longer here, but she's always present to me—in moments, books, and music. she taught me patience and resilience. I am the way I am because of her.

second, I'd say that the brutal dict4torship I've been living all my life. I won't explain it that much. It has definitely had an impact on my personality and perspective.

third, depression; I used to think everything was pointless, and I kind of accepted that life would always be like that. I learned to take one step at a time. Keep pushing :)

(5) what made you start your blog?

that's a good question! last year I saw Band of Brothers with my brother (it was his second time), and I went CRAAAZY. I looked everywhere for a fandom, then I found all of you here... and I decided to be brave and talk. I'm an introvert; it was so hard (and still is sometimes). But it was so worth it. I've met the best mutuals ever.

(6) what’s the best and worst part of being online/a creator?

best part: always learning. I absolutely love learning; there's this rule of getting 1% better every day. I love to use new fonts, different effects, or transitions, combining songs with specific scenes. so much fun. and of course, the community. I think I found a place where I feel comfortable sharing what I create. That's priceless.

worst part: Whenever I get a new idea, I get OBSESSED. can't stop thinking about it. I NEED to make it right now and share it with all of you. That's time-consuming, especially because I am such a perfectionist and I want to give you high-quality content. There's this perpetual pressure to produce new content every week. It must be a habit for some people, so you can imagine that sometimes I just sit in a corner and contemplate life.

(15) what do you think of when you hear the word “home”?

I've never thought of home as a place. For me, home is the people I love. So corny.

(17) name 3 things that make you happy

exercising, listening to music and talking with my lovely friends!!

(24) what’s one thing you’re proud of yourself for?

Last month, one of my best friends shared a pic on their stories, it was a social gathering at her home. I saw myself there and remembered that I took that picture almost two years ago, when I was dealing with depression. I’m proud of my determination to take responsibility for my mental health and try my best to make a positive impact on my life, the lives of my loved ones and anyone who needs it. The girl in that pic changed so much. I'm proud of her :)

💐 once you receive this lovely bouquet of flowers you have to mention five things you love, publicly, and send it to 10 of your favorite followers if you want. SPREAD POSITIVITY! ⛅️

I literally disappeared here; I'm so sorry, I've been so busy and I'm recovering from a cough. Thanks for sending this Alexi!!

I love hugs!! It's one of my daily ways to release stress. Makes me feel much better :)

I freaking love this fandom. My lovely mutuals aaaaa!! I am so happy to be here and see all your posts, all the amazing art you make, your WIPS, your reblogs. I love how supportive and KIND everyone is. We are from different parts of the world, but this obsession (cause let's be honest, it's our obsession) brings us together hehe :)

I love cats!! Their purring is my favourite sound in the world.

I love editing, but I especially LOVE when I read your comments saying you like my work, that you can't stop watching a video, etc. I have a folder in my gallery where I save EVERY single comment that makes me happy. It's a reminder of your kindness. Seriously, guys, I love you all.

I love music. I can't go a day without music. Fr. Music inspires me, makes me dance and makes me feel alive.

To think I believed the judge when he told me the Marine Corps was a superior alternative to jail. I should have shut up and done my time.
