acckerman replied to your post “HBO War fandom, help !”

Idk if you're still looking for it, but the whole show is on Youtube. Without subtitles though, but the episodes are all there if you search for them :)

Hey! Thanks! I’m still looking fo the eps. I found some of them on youtube, but not all in plain English. There’s versions with russian voiceovers floating around and I keep finding them but not plain English audio. I’m going to have to look some more. Thanks! :D

Hi there! So, I hope this is okay, but I just wanted to say that I just read your "Next Day Gone" fic (recommended to me by my friend who also loves it a lot!) and I really, really loved it (seriously, I'm having withdrawals after reading it all today) and I was just wondering if you're planning on continuing it? I know it's a while since it was posted, so I understand if you're not going to, but I thought I'd just send this anyway! Have a good day! /sergeantskip (which is a sideblog bleh)

As I SUSPECTED tumblr mobile didn’t publish my reply so here we go:

Sorry this is going to be brief because I’m on my phone, but YES it will be! I need to finish my BoB Big Bang and then will go back to that fic ‘verse. The Runner/Chuckler story that follows immediately after is already mostly written. Once I’m back home on Tuesday and reunited with my laptop I’ll post you a snippet. Thanks so much for your ask! 

Except now that I’m home, I’m so going to post that snippet for you!

acckerman ha risposto al tuo post “is there anybody who’s used china post to get wigs from wig supplier?...”

When I got my Noya cosplay, I remember ordering the costume itself from China and I think it took about two weeks for it to arrive in Sweden? I'm not sure if it's the same for wigs, but I guess it could be worth a shot? Otherwise, I got my wig from England somewhere, and that took like a week or so.

i’m laughing because i’m doing the exact same cosplay wth but my costume took over three months to get here which is why i’m trying to decide whether if to risk it or spend way more than i own just to be on the safe side of things. but thanks for the reply, i’ll think about it carefully also because shipments are suspended until the 6th because of festivities so want it or not i have time to mull it over

21, 77 and 95 :) - sergeantskip

21. what is your favorite dish?

ahh i love steak!! my dad makes really good steak and they’re so good omg.

77. what kind of person are you?

i really wanna say that i’m a nice person who is super friendly. but...also i can be super paranoid and that leaves me to be kinda rude and i jump to conclusions a lot. i try to be nice and understanding and positive, but ahh sometimes i kinda fail at that oops.

95. how do you look right now?

okay, i think! i’ve got on my red vs blue shirt, i brushed my hair (for once), and i’m wearing lipstick!!

[georgeluz]

Aight, so this is sergeantskip (but I'm in sideblog hell so like yo), for the ask game thing because it sounds like fun! My face tag is Roe's shitty face, which is on my things/nav page on sergeantskip (because goddamn I have annoying tags I'm so sorry). I'm an ISFJ and Gemini, and I'd probably say I'd prefer being shipped with a guy in BoB, even though I don't really mind all that much! :) Thank you!

AHUAWDIUWSEGYEFDAH im an isfj finally one of my kind. (i think I thought I was an infj earlier I think I said I was but I’m actually an isfj. I took the real deal exam and everything as part of a career counselling session lmfao)

The Character I See You As: Donald Malarkey! I feel like I’ve given a lot of people Malarkey but that’s ok because I love Malark more than I love MYSELF. I sincerely believe that he’s very close to what an isfj is. He gets along with everyone, but also can separate himself and seem a little lonesome and weary (probably spreads himself a little thin), but never complains or snips at anyone. Malarkey has the patience of a saint with other people (except people who he’s really close to that he can get away with getting mad at), a natural leader because he’s well-liked and always wants what’s best, but at the same time super jovial? Half the time he’s the kid friend that needs to be LOOKED OUT FOr and then the other half of the time it’s like mom friend ready 2 go. 

Your Three Best Friends: Skip Muck, Carwood Lipton, Joe Liebgott

The One You Don’t Get Along With: Is there?? First of all I can’t think of anyone that Malarkey didn’t get along with unless it was completely justified (Sobel, Dike, etc). So maybe no one? Maybe you’re just that wonderfully adaptable and social, ay? When I look at the bob boys anyway, I don’t see any one person that you wouldn’t get along with (and I can relate, I think us isfj’s are remarkably socially adaptable) unless it was really justified tho.

Who I Ship You With: Bill Guarnere. Someone who you can joke around with, someone who will totally not be afraid to stand up for you (and stand up for a million other things and you’ll probably need to tell him to “SIT DOWN” every once in awhile, after all you have to mom someone when it’s necessary), and someone who can also look after you, because Bill is a total dad ok. Listen. Have you seen replacements? The way he was talking to them? He loves the kiddos ok. He’s a total softie, don’t let anyone tell you different. He talks a lot of smack but he’s a TOTAL SOFTIE.

Wildcard: Sergeant. Mortarman. 2nd Platoon. Easy Company.

LIL BLURB…. THING: 

Well. There was a reason you didn’t drink a lot back home.

Your head felt heavy, like a string with a five pound weight attached to it was hanging off of the back of your neck. The beer you gripped in your hand was only there after you had had two glasses of wine, a few shots of whiskey (which burned like hell), and whatever else you could find. Or, in other words, you’d already had enough alcohol to convince you that having a few more beers wouldn’t kill you. Besides, drinking made you appear to fit in a little more in front of the guys, all of whom were just a little suspicious of your presence. You had, though, managed to keep up in most of the Toccoa training. 

You laughed. You joked. You, Skip, Malarkey, and Tab had had a drinking contest. Of course you failed miserably and somehow Skip pulled out all the stops, but it didn’t matter. You were drunk and finally having “fun”, free from your anxieties and free from Sobel’s watchful eye. It didn’t cross your mind that there would ever be having too much until your stomach started churning and you thought you might throw up. That was on hour three.

“H-hold on guys. I gotta-” You burp.

“Jesus, don’t throw up! Not on me!” Malarkey swats you away with his hand and sends you sputtering outside, where you put your hand on the side of the building to steady yourself. Somewhere inside, George Luz is singing in Sobel’s voice. There’s riotous laughter. You groan and look up toward the hills. It looks like it’s out of a Van Gogh painting–swimming and moving and sickening you more. Your whole shoulder is up against the wall now and you swear you’re going to throw up. ‘Oh god, this is why I don’t drink so much so fast. Stupid.’

“Well, Christ, Y/N, you look like hell,” Guarnere says after appearing in the doorway, a satisfied smile played across his lips. He’s one of the boys that you can’t tell whether he likes you or not. Sure he jokes with you, but sure he also gives you hell for your controversy. “I shouldn’ta let those guys give you more drinks. I knew you’s was out after those shots you took,” Bill finally says after you don’t reply, his voice softening a little. 

“Hey, now,” you grumble, promising yourself that you will go ahead and die if you vomit in front of Bill Guarnere. “I can make my own decisions.”

“I ain’t sayin’ that because you’re a woman, for god’s sake,” he exclaims, laughter bubbling deep from within his chest. “George Luz can’t handle it either. Neither can Joe Toye, but he’ll promise he can. All’s I’m sayin is I’m just tryna look out for ya, okay?” He steps closer, putting a firm hand on your shoulder. You place your forehead against the wall of the bar, steady yourself, and then stand up straight after a moment. You had to steel yourself, give yourself a little pep talk, but you managed to keep the drinks down for the moment.

“How about I get you some water?” He gives your shoulder a little rub and you chuckle. You hadn’t really noticed it before, but he was completely sober. It made you wonder why–you would have thought he was a drinking man. 

“Yes please, god, and maybe something to eat.” Granted, you aren’t sure you could keep either of that down. But you do know that you’re thankful as hell for Bill Guarnere.

Accents!! - sergeantskip

Random - Levi Acckerman

I like Levi Ackerman on Attack on Titan. He’s a fascinating character.

Funny. Snarky. A badass

I recently found a video about 10 Things You Probably Don’t Know About Levi Ackerman.

link here in case anyone’s interested:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASUYrrCEuTc

Something that made me glad is something people who watch AOT should already know:

Levi likes tea.

A lot.

So much so, once this whole Titan business is done, he wants to open a tea shop.

I can totally picture this. Can’t you?

Someone please post art of this.

[warrenhmuck]

ACCENTS DO IT EL DO IT!!

I feel like you yelling at me counts as 2?

[antiquecompass]

For @acckerman

So below are two snippets from that fic that follows Next Day Gone. The first is the opening scene of the story and the second is a scene between Hoosier and Leckie:

“You’re not suggesting any roadside distractions this time,” Runner said.

 He’d let Hoosier take the wheel. He was just too damn nervous to drive and Hoosier could make the trip to Chicago in his sleep. Runner clenched and unclenched his hands as Nick Jonas crooned over the radio about being jealous. Runner felt like he was going to puke. What were they doing? What was he supposed to do? March into Lew’s place and demand an explanation? Let Hoosier defend his honor?

 “Fuck,” Runner said and reached for his phone.

 “Nope,” Hoos said as he plucked it out of Runner’s hands. “No trying to avoid the problem anymore. That’s how you both got into this mess in the first fucking place. We spent a week at my parents’ farm. You worked out your frustration on the hay bales. I wore a cowboy hat and boots and took your tiny ass dancing. There was pie and confessions and too much to drink. Now it’s time to get shit done. You have four days of your vacation left and you <i>will</i> spend them in Chicago.”

 “I have to take at least a day and a half to drive home.”

 Hoosier reached into his pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. He tossed into Runner’s lap. He unfolded it to find a plane ticket, departing O’Hare at 7:00pm on Sunday.

 “Oh fuck you,” Runner said.

Hoosier heard a snick of a lighter and turned to give the asshole trying to smoke next to him a peace of his mind. He nearly stumbled to the ground when he found one Robert Leckie beside him.

 Bob gave him that crooked grin before he took a drag of his cigarette.

 Leckie wore a soft white henley with a collar so wide, Hoosier could see his collarbone. It made him want to lean forward and <i>bite</i>.

 “What the hell are you doing here?” he asked.

 “Moral support in case you tried to murder Chuckler,” Bob said before he took another drag.

 “For me, Runner, or Chuckler?”

 Bob shrugged and blew out a line of smoke. “I still haven’t decided yet.”

 “Smoking kills, you know,” Hoosier said.

 “Don’t make me blow this in your face, you sanctimonious brat.”

 “Look at the man with his three dollar words,” Hoosier said. It was kind of sad though. Leckie had tried so hard to quit. It was one of the things Vera wanted him to do before they got married. Hoosier figured this was some form of post-break-up rebellion or the result of too much time around his parents or a combination of both.

 “You’re going to quite again,” Hoosier declared.

 “I’m sure you’re going to try,” Leckie said. He crushed out his cigarette on the heel of his shoe. “So, Mr. Wizard, your plan got those two this far. What next?”

 “I figured I’d leave them to it,” Hoosier said.

 Leckie laughed. “Because that worked so well the last time. They need romance. We should help them.”

 Hoosier busted out laughing. “Romance? You?”

 Leckie narrowed his eyes and then move uncomfortably close to Hoosier. He put a hand over Hoosier’s mouth until the laughter stopped. His skin tasted like smoke and tobacco and nicotine. Leckie leaned closer, close enough to share the same breath with Hoosier.

 “Bill,” he drawled, lips next to Hoosier’s ear, “shut up.”

 Hoosier could honestly say he hated the curly-haired bastard in that moment.

Okay, but I kinda feel like you're Artemis?? Idk why, but when I think about it, that's kinda who you remind me of!

Honestly I accept this! Haha I see where you’re getting at and I totally relate to aspects of Artemis! Plus, I love archery and have my bow mounted on my wall which is another thing ;)

Tell me which greek god/goddess you think i am

[yesjisung]

Tbh, I have no idea if the HBO War drama is over, but I've seen a lot of it in the tags and I honestly don't know what to think. Kinda feels like a small thing was blown way out of proportion, and that people got way too defensive/upset about things that hasn't mattered in the past, and that it all just kinda got out of hand. I personally don't support either side, and see faults with both of them, but idk. It's all just a big mess, I guess

hopefully it is over or at least going is going to be over soon but yea!! i agree with u!! im not gonna get rly deep with this bc everything has pretty much been said already and i feel like tumblr user astronautapricot said it rly well here and yeah.  

both sides have their points but i don’t feel like it’s right to, like u said, get too defensive/upset about this bc people can have different opinions and u can’t suddenly start saying that someone is wrong bc they feel uncomfortable with this whole shipping thing or that they don’t feel uncomfortable with it (which is probably not what happened or maybe it did my brain is being weird so i cant remember)

also people should rly get x-kit and the blacklist thing bc it’s rly helpful in clearing out things u dont wanna see so this thing can never happen again????? other thing people could do is start to tag their posts tbh tbh and dont say that people who do ship the actors portrayals dont respect the real men. just a thought

(tho this probably what it’s like in the h.amilton fandom or any fandom with fictionalized versions of real people. also i cannot get my thoughts into proper sentences so sry abt that)

[prettiestcaptain]

Hi there! I'm sorry if I'm bothering, but I was in the Band Of Brothers tag and saw that one of your gifsets (the one with the episode titles and stuff) had been reposted by an account named routesixtiethree. I'm not entirely sure if I can send a copyright thing to Tumblr so they take it down when I'm not the creator, so I thought I'd let you know instead so that you can do it yourself.

oh, god dammit, thank you for telling me, I am honestly so done with the reposters on this site, I thought I was safe in the HBO War fandom, but clearly nowhere is safe

they didn’t even post that gifset right, what a joke

[weareparatroopers]

Okay, some lil' Q's for you: If you were only allowed to watch one more tv show and then not watch another ever again, which show would you choose to watch? What is a place you've always wanted to visit? What is a place from Band Of Brothers and/or The Pacific that you'd want to visit? What is an era that you would want to experience, and why?

I know you send me these a while ago, and I’m terribly sorry for not answering them sooner but hey ho here we go.

If you were only allowed to watch one more tv show and then not watch another ever again, which show would you choose to watch? This is a really hard question and while some people might look at me with disgust I would choose ‘Doctor Who’. Not only has a tons of seasons but also a great variety of stories, so when I feel like some action, or romance, or something entirely else I will probably be satisfied.

What is a place you've always wanted to visit? So many places... Can’t decide. Right now, it’s a close tie between Amsterdam, Kopenhagen and Gothenburg (because I really want to meet you)

What is a place from Band Of Brothers and/or The Pacific that you'd want to visit? Currahee. No doubt.

What is an era that you would want to experience, and why? While I am interested in many eras I don’t feel like any of them would be particularly pleasing as a whole. I would like to experience Easy Germany in the 60s/70s though simply to better comprehend how my parents grew up.

[weareparatroopers]

Lemme see, lemme see: 3, 9, 11 & 12 :)

3. What position do you think you would have/want to have if you were a part of Easy Company (medic, rifleman, sniper, etc.)?

Well, after my experience with several First-Person shooter games and talking about this with @amoallavivo​ I’m fairly convinced I’d be a sniper. At least personality wise. My eyesight would be kinda problematic though, since I can’t differentiate between a human and a flagpole if they’re more than 5 meters away from me. But oh well, let’s imagine I could see.

9. If you had to pick, what would you rather do; Jump into combat from an airplane, or go on patrol in still-hostile Germany?

Go on patrol in Germany. I like planes, but I prefer them when I can stay inside of them instead of jumping into almost certain death, so yeah the Patrol it is. Nothing that can go wrong while patrolling through a country whose ‘protectors’ want you dead, right?  

11. If you had to be part of one of the episodes showing actual combat (aka not Currahee or Points or any episodes like those), which one would you pick and why?

Well, I guess I have to eliminate these. I couldn’t psychologically handle Bastogne or The Breaking Point, so that’s a definite no. Day of Days is a no as well, see my reasoning on question 9. So is Crossroads because Dike in the end. I guess, I’ll just go with Carentan. At least there is England at the end.    

12. Returning to the zombie apocalypse team from the last part; You have your three members (if you haven't answered that question, just pick three that would be on your team!), and you get stuck in a building that is going to get overrun by zombies. You decide to split up into two teams to easier escape. Which out of the three original guys would you want to keep on your team and why?

I don’t remember how I answered this question before (and I’m to lazy to look for it ‘cause that would take hours since I probably didn’t tag it) but I think it was Liebgott, Nixon and Bull so I’m gonna stick with those three. Out of these, I would want Nixon to stay with me. My first choice would be Bull because he’s a goshdarn wall and would also be able to calm me down and stuff but I kinda want him to go with Liebgott. So, Nix it is. And I think, having the Intelligence Officer with you while trying to escape a building sounds like a really good idea. An intelligent idea you might say.
