Disclaimer: I don't own these characters--they are based off of the actors' portrayals of characters in HBO's The Pacific, not the real people themselves. Absolutely no disrespect is intended.
Author's Note: I have this tendency where I think "oh hey, that's a cool idea, I think I'll write 2k words about it before returning to the things I should actually be doing!" and end up vomiting 30k words into a word document. But considering this has happened twice now for Ack Ack and Hillbilly, I'm honestly not sure if it's just me or the sheer perfection of these two characters. This fic is entirely the fault of chargasm--if she hadn't encouraged me to take a second look at it, it definitely wouldn't have been written. <333 This fic also wouldn't have been possible without softshinythings who graciously allowed me to keyboardsmash at her throughout the painful week that it took me to write this. I have no idea how many times I whined about how much story there was to write. Massive amounts of love to skew_whiff and skylilies for all of their support. <3 This was written for Team Pacific in HBO War-A-Thon.

Author's Note: I think I made this amazing prompt much sadder than it was meant to be and I apologize in advance for that… A million thanks to skylilies for being patient while I had difficulties with my writing. <333

Author's Note: SO. Funny story, this piece was intended to be a short 2k word piece at maximum. And then ummm, somehow it evolved into ~27k words of ridiculous AU? This fic wouldn't have been possible without several people. spirograph and uniformly put up with me whining about this fic for the entire month it took me to write this and helped push me through crucial plot points as well as being HUGE ENABLERS IN GENERAL. Also, this fic would have been a million times more unintelligible if not for the amazing beta work of jeanquirieplus! I've stared at this thing for like WAY TOO LONG and she just CLEANED EVERYTHING UP AND WAS AMAZING ABOUT IT. SO MUCH LOVE FOR YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY OK. ♥♥♥

Author's Note: is it too early for a fratboys au in this fandom yet? yes? too bad, i don't actually care because i'm writing it anyways! :D this main piece is sledge/snafu centric but i have plans for spinoffs involving all of the other characters. <3 also, please be aware that it's a multichapter fic--second part is already in the works! as such, the rating is tentative for what might occur later on.

Author's Note: This fic is written for uniformly who got me on this military kick and sucked me into The Pacific with unrepentant glee. Even though I have been nonfunctional for the last four days because I have been writing the hell out of this fic, I love her and forgive her anyways. Special thanks goes to spirograph who saved this fic from the fate of turning out crap due to 3AM writing (but tried many many times to sabotage this fic by making me laugh during the writing if VERY SERIOUS SCENES--it's okay I FORGIVE YOU). Thanks to both of them for listening to me whine throughout this entire process. <33
This was technically supposed to be my warbigbang but I finished it way too quickly and I will probably end up writing something stupid like a college AU for it instead.
ALSO uniformly suggested this for representative music and I have to agree with her pretty hard. <3
