Summary
The German ambush had come a week after Bastogne, as sudden and brutal as a slap. And in that moment, in the chaos and the smoke and the screaming, Babe realised he hated them. Hated them in a way that went deeper than anger, a hatred that felt old, ancestral, like something inherited. He’d thought he'd reached his limit back in the woods, but this... this was different.
He’d thrown himself into the dirt, found cover in a shallow depression left by an old mortar shell. Around him, the field lit up with tracer fire and shouting. He stayed low, heart hammering. Somewhere out there, a voice cut through the noise; Luz, calling for a medic. That was normal. That was routine. He could picture Gene already running, boots pounding across frozen ground, kit slung tight, hands already reaching.
But the calls didn’t stop.
When Babe finally dared to lift his head, he saw Luz, still lying in the open, hands clutching at his leg, blood dark in the snow. No sign of Eugene.
Or:
Eugene Roe get's separated from Easy Company during a German ambush. Babe Heffron misses his lover.

Summary
Nile watches as Joe gets to his feet and heads towards Nicky, calling out something to him in Italian. Nile is torn between learning Italian, so that she can know what they’re saying, and feeling like it’s an intrusion on something that she’s not meant to hear. "He's very protective of Nicky, isn't he?"
"You're only noticing that now?" Andy asks wryly.
“It all seems a little bit one-sided, that’s all,” Nile muses. “I've never seen Nicky be as...violently protective over Joe.” Andy just hums, and Nile glances over at her. “You think I’m wrong? I know I haven’t been around long, but I’ve seen Joe get killed in a bunch of messy ways and Nicky has never done…that.”
Andy just hums again. “Look again,” she says when Nile throws her hands up in frustration. “Watch more closely. You’ll know when you see it.”

Summary
Clenching and unclenching his hands into fists in his pockets, he tried not to think about how he could feel Hoobler’s blood underneath his fingernails. He’d done his best to clean his hands of every little bit of Hoobler from the crevices in his hands. But he never could seem to get it all off. Felt like the aftermath clung to his skin like leeches on a summer day. Always felt like their blood was permanently staining his hands. Senseless violence and gore that would embed itself into his palms. Hoobler’s death in particular seemed so senseless. So avoidable. The weight of being utterly useless in stopping the bleeding sat its heavy burden on his shoulders. Adding itself to the weight of everyone he couldn’t manage to save.
OR: When Eugene fails to take care of himself, he falls badly ill. Babe is left to pick up the pieces
