Don't We All

Don't we all

i love icemav so much

If I may add on:

Rich boy Ice who desperately wants to learn how to cook

Poor boy Mav who has to teach him

Mav: Have I ever told you what a good cook you are?

Ice, frying a salad: You have not.

Mav: Yeah, there's a reason for that. Get out of my kitchen.

annnnd the tears have started again.

Hi TG Fandom!

So this AU came to me in a dream and I woke up with actual tears so — here we go. 

In the deepest chunks of my cold, dead heart, I believe that even if Ice married Sarah, he still always loved Mav. There were just so many reasons why they couldn't work out long-term: Ice wanted to advance, Mav didn't want to hold him back, the danger of being a gay couple in the ‘80s and ‘90s — let alone in the Navy. 

It just couldn't work out for them. They were trying to protect each other and that meant sacrifices on both ends.

But it doesn't mean they ever stopped loving each other, Ice’s love was shown in saving Mav’s ass time after time, and Mav’s was in being there — always, no matter what Ice needed. 

Mav was there when all three of Ice’s kids were born, his two daughters and his youngest: Tom Kazansky Jr. 

Junior, who only looks more like his namesake with every year that passes. 

Eventually Mav gets shipped to China Lake so he doesn't have to get a front-row seat to Ice dying right in front of them (Ice’s decision of course).

The Mission rolls around, and lo and behold: a Tom Kazansky will always appear to Mav in his time of need. 

But instead of a text — it’s in the form of Junior, a vision of 27-year-old Tom Kazansky, complete with moles and his big ass teeth. 

“Apparently, we’ve got a mission, Maverick.”

Imagine the complete agony of a world where Mav never gets to have the life he deserves with the man he loves, and not only that, but he's surrounded by the living specters of the two men he loved most and lost. 

A world in which he gets to keep a piece of Goose and Ice, but only as a reminder that the Bradshaw and Kazansky on his wings will never be the ones he wants.

Or the flip side, where Mav is the only piece of their fathers that both boys have left and there gets to be a Kazansky-Bradshaw-Mitchell trio in the sky again.

Just me? Okay 😭

(Ice sent Junior out as a Dagger with a promise to: Be His Wingman. Both of them knowing he wasn't going to be there when Junior got back.)

god i love them

Maverick, reminiscing to the daggers about the "good old days"

Maverick: Oh we used to get up to all sorts of hijinks and fun. You wouldn't believe it.

The daggers, who found Gooses diary of their unhinged and feral behaviour: ohh really??? You don't say.....

Maverick: Yea, but we've calmed down, have to take it a bit slower now. Practically tame these days 😇😇😇

Iceman, in the next room, leans through the door to eyeball Mav: Your dumbass went mach 10 last week. "Calmed" my ass!!

The daggers: *in shock*

Maverick, gasping dramatically: Ice! That is a lie!!

The daggers: *deep sighs of relief*

Maverick: It was Mach 10.5, thank you 😊

The daggers: 💀

Above image is a pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

Just rewatched Topgun, and i am SCREAMING. Did ya'll realize. that Ice is the ONLY PERSON WHO SAYS SORRY after Gooses death. Everyone else keeps trying to get Mav back into a plane, but Ice says sorry.

Anyways, im crying again and going through all my favorite fanfics.

(Also just found out that i read one of the fanfics 20 times? like wtf. I think i have some issues lol)
