. *. ⋆ Diana Holmes is a mechanic- she's an aircraft technician of the 100th Bomb Group of the 8th Air Force during World War 2. She's the only woman mechanic on the sight, making her easy to spot. It made her well-known amongst the men and women of Thorpe Abbots. It made her an easy topic for Robert "Rosie" Rosenthal to bring up when he was placed at Thorpe Abbots. It made it easy for him to get to know her, for him to talk with her smoothly as she worked on his plane, his soft smile igniting her own. It also made the two become close quicker than either of them could have anticipated- it caused romantic feelings that neither of them could ignore to corrupt their minds, something new and exciting sprouting through the thick-concreted walls of war.

. *. ⋆ Simone Adler was 23 years old when she decided she'd do all she could to help bring the war to an end- to do that, she studied and trained for hours a day, multiple days a week, her efforts being given to becoming a nurse. A flight nurse, specifically, where she'd be on board with the men, aiding them when needed, her skills there to help save lives that would be lost if she weren't on board. Through this process, Simone met the men she would be stationed with, being those of the 100th Bomb Group. They all seemed okay in Simone's opinion- except for one, that is. John D. Brady, the bane of her existence- he was insufferable, always cranky, and for some reason hated her before she could even have a real conversation with him. The hatred was mutual, of course- however, the hatred was quick to morph into something different, something more friendly after the two encountered near-death situations. It was something that resembled love- something that was love, and it was so very clearly the one thing that was destined to save them in the end.

"I hate you for one thing Emilia, and that's for making me love you so much that if I let you go, I'll be lost without you." - John D. Brady 𓆩✶𓆪 𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐀 𝐌𝐜𝐊𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐀 was deemed to be a sweetheart in the eyes of others who met her, but in the eyes of John Brady she was an itch he couldn't scratch. During her time at Thorpe Abbotts Emilia grew a strong dislike to John Brady, his grumpy and stubborn attitude towards her made her feel irritated. The tension between them was palpable, yet, over time, as they saved each other's lives and saw past the tough exteriors, their respect for one another grew. And despite their initial hatred, an undeniable attraction simmered beneath the surface. John Brady was an idiot, but he was Emilia McKenna's idiot ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ "𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥" "𝘛𝘩𝘦 "𝘚𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘦" 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘤 𝘴𝘩𝘳𝘶𝘨" "𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘣𝘶𝘨𝘴, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘢 𝘗𝘭𝘶𝘴" "𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘰𝘥𝘨𝘦" - 𝙉𝙤.1 𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙮 𝘼𝙣𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙢 𝘣𝘺 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙘 𝙈𝙤𝙣𝙠𝙚𝙮𝙨 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ {Masters of The Air} Fem!Oc x John Brady 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 "𝑴𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒅 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒔" 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 CURRENTLY UNDER EDITING - 05/05/25 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ©-delic8lcver2024 ©gotxpenny2026

Sorcha Devlin never planned to find herself across the Pond stationed at the Thorpe Abbotts base, but as a promise to be close to her younger brother, she landed in this position. Cormack Devlin, younger by 2 years, was training to become a fighter pilot when Pearl Harbor occurred. As the son of Irish immigrants who were ever grateful to America and its bounty of opportunity, he pledged his undying loyalty to the country of his birth and was shipped over to England. Sorcha promised her mother that Cormack wouldn't be alone, pledging to go with him as a form of protection and a sense of home. Robert Rosenthal knew he wanted to become a pilot the day America declared they were going to war. He spent months training alongside his peers to get a chance to do something meaningful with his life. The strong sense of justice he carried within himself made its way to Thorpe Abbotts alongside him. He planned to stay focused solely on missions, seeing it as his duty to lead his men through these times. The two meet on Rosie's first day at Thorpe Abbotts, and slowly everything they vowed never to do comes true.
