Speirs: Lip stop worrying about it! I'm fine. It was just a splinter.
Lipton: You were IMPALED!
Speirs: It was a large splinter.
Perconte: “....Speirs is going to kill us for this, isn't he?”
Christenson: “....Maybe we shouldn’t tell him.”
Speirs: “Maybe you shouldn’t tell me what?”
Speirs: People who breathe die, so just don’t!
Gene: I’m leaving- Nobody here except Winters has common sense or a regard for their own safety.
The rest of Easy Company in the background:

LMK IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE!! These are really fun to make :)
Webster
steal everything your gay little hands can carry™
How about Speirs/Webster and Speirs/Winters for the ship game?:)
You got it! 😊 Speirs/Webster = 1 and Speirs/Winters = 2
Neither of them have ever really gone through the toy bin. Although, one day Webster spotted a really cool shark diving playset (the little boat came with a shark diving cage and everything!) and ever since then he sort of eyeballs the toy bin as a sort of quick scan for more goodies as he walks by.
If Speirs and Winters are at the thrift store, they`re after one thing - furniture. They both like to work with their hands and they find it deeply satisfying to find furniture (or other items) that they can fix up and make their own. You could say the furniture section is their toy bin.
Webster. I mean, look at that soft Disney prince looking boy and tell me he doesn`t give the softest, most full-of-love hugs!
Winters. Hugs from Winters are one of the most comforting things on planet earth. If you could somehow bottle that feeling and sell it, you'd be rich.
(I`m sorry, Speirs loses on both counts here. Hugs from Speirs are too quick and too far between to win. But when he does hug? He gives the other person a damn good squeeze - albeit a quick one)
If Webster can spend a whole day with his face buried in a book, he will. Speirs prefers to be productive - he`s a man that likes to feel accomplished. It works out well between them because Speirs is very good at finding a project to do on his own, leaving Webster free to devour as many words as he can.
As said above, Speirs and Winters both like to work with their hands. Restoring and fixing old furniture is a big time de-stresser for both of them. They can easily spend the entire weekend in the garage, in companionable silence, working away on their latest project and consider it an incredibly relaxing weekend. However, if either of them is going to have a “lazy day” it will probably be Winters. Winters would be someone who is content relaxing in his backyard, a book or crossword puzzle in his hand (and having an occasional nap too).
Speirs has no preference - he`ll take whatever he can lay his hands on.
Webster and Winters both have a preference for gold.
Neither of Webster nor Speirs wear stripes. It isn`t really either of their styles. But if forced to wear stripes? Speirs is probably going to look best in them.
Winters! I know I`ve said it before but I wish I could find this picture of Damian Lewis in a striped shirt that I know I`ve seen before because he looked good. (Unless I`ve just imagined said picture?? It`s possible) Either way, he can rock the stripes.
Both Webster and Speirs wear dad hats. And they look cute in them too.
Winters does not wear dad hats. He`s not really a fan of hats in general to be honest.
Out of all 3 of the people involved in this ask, Webster is the only one who quotes shows/movies. He doesn`t do it excessively but every once in a while, if the situation calls for it, Webster can repeat word for word almost every line of his favorite movies. It`s actually quite impressive how much he has perfectly memorized.
Webster is a practical person. He saves only what could absolutely be necessary but he doesn`t like much clutter. Speirs is your basic human sized magpie. He`s always bringing trinkets home because they`re “neat” - practicality be damned.
Like I just said, Speirs has stuff. He collects all kinds of odds and ends because they interest him. WInters collects practical things that always end up coming in handy down the line. He has an oddly accurate knack for knowing what might be useful in the future.
Webster loves cuddling in to a pile of blankets. If he had an aesthetic, it might be called something like “cozy academia”. Speirs tolerates, but doesn't participate in, Webster`s blanket-fest.
Winters and Speirs are both efficient people when it comes to blankets. They like to get one real good blanket instead of having a bunch of them. Sure, it can be expensive, but they know quality is worth it.
Webster likes any kind of chocolate but he`s not someone who would go out of his way for chocolate or eat it all the time. Speirs isn`t that kind of person either and he only really eats chocolate with nuts in it. Or chocolate pretzels. Speirs needs the sweetness balanced with some salt.
I maintain that Winters has a sweet tooth that mostly expresses itself in his year-round hot chocolate habit. It`s basically like his one vice. Speirs gets a kick out of it and always makes sure there`s hot chocolate mix in the house. He even buys it in bulk sometimes in the winter because it can get a bit hard to find in the summer months.
Band of Brothers as coffee?

Rest of Easy Company when facing a problem: *solves it normally*
Speirs when facing a problem:
Satan, I’m coming to visit
I mean....
@sunnyshifty @baberoeeee @softliebgott @speirtons @bandofbrothersworld @geniedocroe
Thank you @lightbrite-rebel for the tag 💕
rules: the last celeb you have saved on your phone is your quarantine buddy.
Nice group 🤭
I tag @amourdesetoiles @spooky-shelby @merlinaknight @scent-ofbooks
Since we are all quarantined in my state there is nothing to do. Please tell which band of brothers boy I should draw to cure my boredom. I will post each drawing.
Babysitter Speirs: *hiding in the bathroom with a glass of wine*
Easy Company: *screaming and destroying the house*
Speirs, to the camera: Lipton is out of town, and I desperately needed a drink to get through the rest of the night. So I’m hiding in the bathroom, having a drink. Is that wrong?
Probably Luz: *breaking something expensive upstairs*
Speirs: They don’t ever go away. They want everything you have.
Speirs: *points camera under the door*
Shifty: *on the ground, staring through the crack curiously*
Speirs: See? He follows me everywhere.
Shifty: Hi.
Shifty: Hi.
Speirs: Hi.
Imagine the Easy boys finding a frickin' flame thrower.
Lipton: We are not taking the flame thrower-
Speirs: *grabs the flame thrower and uses it in mid air* BURN BABY BURN
Easy Company: *hides behind Lipton*
Ron spends small fortune on his hair and it's always perfect, that's how everyone knows not to touch it. The real reason why Ron doesn't want anyone to touch his hair is because his scalp is very sensitive and one small tug or even caress can make him melt and turn into purring fluffy kitten.
Important Safety Warning: There is a very real and distinct limit to the amount of head scratches Speirs will allow before he stabs you. It is best to assume that he operates at the two preferred rubs on the tummy like a cat. Any more and death is waiting for you.
SpeirsRoe headcanon I feel very strongly: Ron and Gene walking around in a mall. Gene expressing his lack of understanding and almost outrage about how much all those new sneakers can cost. Ron doing that blank stare of his to mask his reaction as an owner of at least a dozen of designer workout shoes.
FACTUAL
Ronald Speirs collects high end sneakers like a bird of paradise would collect colorful rocks and leaves for their mate. He cleans the ones he does wear with a set of tooth brushes. Most remain in their original packaging or in a case in the basement.
Gene doesn’t know about this because he comes from a place where basements don’t exist and livings in constant fear of the room bellow the functional part of their house.
They both fear the day the other finds out about their secret.
our vain boi ron does the 10-step korean skincare routine in the moring and in the evening religiously. his bathroom is very spartan and modern in cool colours but if you were to open (which would never happen, there are traps) the mirror cabinet there, you would see rows upon rows of colorful cutesy korean products with smiling pandas. no one is allowed to enter that room. speirs's skin is glorious and no one knows HOW!?
I FORGOT ABOUT THIS ASK AND IT HAS SAT HERE FOR MONTHS!
Yes. 1000%. Speirs spends more on his skin and hair than some people make in 3 months. He imports directly. He can read Korean.
No one knows.
No one will ever know.
Just like no one knows about his sneaker collection or the sheer price tag on his watches.
im here for hc that harry - bless his sweet irish soul - is completely blind that his two best friends are very much in love. And i mean like OBLIVIOUS. And everyone else knows that they are a couple and its not even a secret but harry just doesnt see it. Here are examples of what i mean:
- nix and dick are sitting on the sofa, nix attentivly listening to dick, one hand playing with dick’s hair. Harry dismisses it as ‘look, dick works late, he probably has a headache and nix is massaging his head’
- nix and dick are holding hands. Harry says dick often holds nix by the hand probably because the latter would just wonder off god knows where without supervision
- nix and dick are sleeping in the same bed. “Lip you are kidding me, right, sharing a bed doesnt mean anything. I mean the other day i caught you and Ron sleeping on the couch, next thing i know you will be telling me that the two of you are a thing”
Lip:
i feel like there is a rule that Speirs cannot be left alone with Penkala and Skinny, because the latter too are marely children and they worship the ground Speirs walks on so it is incredible easy for him to talk them into doing something stupid
like i feel once Alex had to go the hospital because speirs was like “if you hit on something hard constantly, your bones will become stronger and you will suffer minimal injuries” and Alex straight up jumped out of the third floor window to test this
Nixon: hurry, i need you to pretend to be my boyfriend
Speirs: no
Speirs: i can pretend to be your ex husband who has a large fortune and five previous failed marriages with mysteriously disappeared spouses
Krauts: GET YO DOG
Winters, deadfaced: it don't bite
Speirs: *is shooting Krauts left and right*
Krauts: YES IT DO
