Plaisir D'amour (Speirton)

The Only Girl I'll Ever Love is David in Drag (Webgott) [WIP]

"But we gained a good one in the end, so I guess we came out ahead."

I never imagined that, in the end, I could have someone so valuable, so brave and bold, at my side. And it makes me wonder what he could think of us, of my performance back in these woods...

"Well, maybe they kept talking about it because they never heard Tercius deny it."

I don't give a fuck about whether the stories are true or not; what is more important is that you saved us all from certain death. Regardless of what you did before, what truly matters is what you did recently.

"These men aren't really concerned about the stories. They're just glad to have you as our CO. They're happy to have a good leader again."

Am I going to be honest with you, sir... I know I speak for all these men, but I speak it with full honesty in my heart and for my own feelings. Regardless of whatever happened or not, you came for us. You agreed to be our new CO, and I'm so happy for it. I speak for everyone else because I couldn't speak about myself, but my heart speaks loud and clear that I'm so glad for you to be with us. Our new leader. My new superior officer... someone I would trust my life entirely. My life is yours now, Lieutenant Speirs.

Sir... you saw me as a leader? Someone Easy could rely on, and now you told me I'm going to be promoted? Sir... my heart is beating, and I feel like I'm in a dream. I don't know what to do or explain it, but I'm going to accept this commission. But I hope with all my heart that I can stay at your side from now on. Easy needs you. I need you so much now. Ronald Speirs... my superior commander.

A rose for the First Sergeant.
