[revasserium]

the little things (that add up to you) kageyama, hinata, suga, daichi, tsukki

kageyama || he keeps extras of your favorite hairties in his bag, just in case you need them; he always pauses to watch when you put up your hair, thinking to himself how such a mundane thing could mean so much, could take up so much space in his mind, your fingers running through your hair, gathering it up, the soft strands slipping loose to frame your face, your favorite hairtie caught between your lip and your teeth like some inconsequential thing, but he knows -- he knows that it's these moments he'll find tucked away in the pages of his own memories when he gets home, when the lights go out, when it's just him and his own thoughts of you.

hinata || he always buys your favorite flavor of taro milk-bread on the way home; he likes it when you take the first bite, loves the way you smile, unbidden, the happiness bubbling up through you as inevitable as the sunrise, the way you lick your lips and look up at him with those sparkles in your eyes, the way you blush when he laughs, reaching out to wipe at the crumbles that always, always get stuck to your cheek, your lips -- he knows that it's moments like these, the ones he gathers like breadcrumbs on the floor of a heart-break forest, leading him towards a place where he can't turn back without knowing that something inside him will shatter (but only if you leave him, and he doesn't think you will), but he doesn't mind, because he knows that it'll be worth it in the end, just to see you smile.

sugawara || he holds your hand in the hallways, even during the summer months when both your palms are sticky with sweat; he's always loved the feeling of your skin against his, loved the way it makes you blush, even to this day, loves how peoples eyes linger on the pair of you as he walks you to your next class, or to the lunch line, or out to where the gymnasium is, where you'd swing your hands between your bodies and pull him back for a kiss, ask him for one more minute, maybe two, the pair of you lingering like infatuated teens after their first date, unwilling to part at their parents' doors -- he knows that it's moments like these, the ones he cups in the palms of his hands like glass-blown marbles, these are the ones that will matter the most when one day the pair of you look back, holding hands in some distant future, because he knows that he'll never grow tired of the feeling of his hands in yours.

daichi || he lends you his jacket, his mittens, his umbrella, his scarf, even if that means he'll be a little chilly on the way home sometimes; because he's always prepared and you're -- well -- you're working on it, and he can't deny that he likes seeing you in his clothes, the size-difference strangely satisfying, the sight of it scratching some itch inside him he's never realized he had, and then when you return it -- whatever it happens to be -- he knows that it'll smell like you, and he can't lie, he really likes that too -- and he knows it's moments like these, the ones he tucks away in the lining of his jacket, in the stitching of his scarves, that he'll reach for the most, the ones that'll keep him warm on a cold winter's day when he doesn't have you by his side.

tsukki || he has a playlist of songs that you've mentioned you liked, just for himself; because he knows better than anyone else that the music a person likes reveals all their deepest secrets, and finds himself wanting to know all of yours, so he listens to each song, memorizes the lyrics, taps his fingers against the beat and wonders if you did the same the first time you listened, wonders if one day, he were to put a pair of headphones over your ears with a playlist full of all his favorite songs, if your eyes would light up, if your cheeks would flush, if your lips would split into a knowing smile and if you'd already know all the words to sing along -- because he knows that it's moments like these, the private ones he keeps like secret soundtracks, that might one day give him away to you, where you might one day realize that from the moment you met, all his favorite love songs started being about you.

Hi Lauren!! THANK YOUUUUU!!! This is such a good one.

Awful First Meeting + Everybody Knows/Mistaken for a Couple

Harry and Louis meet when they're stuck in an elevator heading to their cars after seeing a double feature at the local movie theater. It probably wouldn't be so awful of a first meeting if Harry hadn't decided to eat nachos with extra cheese sauce and drink what felt like a gallon of soda PLUS his usual travel water bottle during the last movie. In short, he shits his shorts-- and then pees himself, because WHY NOT, at a certain point?-- in front of the hot stranger he hopes he never has to see again.

Unfortunately, the new hire in his department starts that Monday and GUESS WHO IT IS?? Harry's co-workers take his unusual awkwardness around Louis as evidence that they've hooked up in the past, and Louis' teasing banter only makes things worse.

Just when it feels like things couldn't get worse, the two of them get trapped in the elevator again, this time at work.

---

"We really have to stop meeting like this," Louis says, biting back a teasing smile, and Harry wishes he could laugh but all he can think about is the wave of shame he'd felt a few weeks earlier in nearly this exact situation. At least this time he used the toilet less than twenty minutes earlier and had been staying away from lactose since that day. Still, he can't stifle his groan as he shuffles forward and lays his pointer finger on the button for the lobby, pressing as hard as he can.

"Hopefully it won't be as--" Harry stops himself from using the word 'shitty,' because REALLY? "Bad." He turns to Louis, brow furrowed, and frowns. "As bad as that particular, um, incident."

"Y'know what? It could've been worse."

Harry huffs a laugh as he looks back at Louis expectantly. "If we'd been stuck there another five minutes, I would've been in exactly the same boat as you.

--

That's RIGHT, Louis is also an IBS girlie or whatever, and literally shit his pants in his car on the way home! PLOT? MEET TWIST!

so... what's up, bois?

is this because you're all being nostalgic and stuff? did zayn start this nostalgic ride last year? i know zayn is in this new gc, i feel it in my right boob. why are you so active in your little group now, mmm? are you sending each other memes? why are you making multiple gc? the dead gcs belong in different eras of your lives? what's the name of this gc? what's the photo of this gc? is it different gcs in different apps? do you say good morning to each other in different timezones? do you send selfies all the time? did you all dare harry to upload that gym pic? how annoying are louis and harry?

i have many more questions. feel free to add more. thanks.

“Let me put your hair up for you. So pretty.”

Wade Wilson cooed down at you to the music of his shackles clinking as he gently pulled your cloud of hair up and out of the way. 

“Need to have a clear view of you hoovering that anaconda.”

Your lips were stretched around Johnny Storm’s thick, tan cock as his blue eyes stared down at you and a steam of eloquent pornography flowed from his lips.

“Mm. That throat is so gatdamn tight Sweetheart. Can’t wait to fuck that tight little wet gash of yours. Holy shit, that’s good. I know you can take it deeper. I know you can. Such a sweet little innocent slut for us.”

He had no idea. You were in service to Cassandra. She called you her muse, a tool to service her future victims so that when she felt their minds up, she had something more to get off on. You were her little slut, her psychic empath who fed off of other’s joy and you loved your job.

Giving others joy got you off something fierce. The fact that Cassandra loved it and that kept you alive was an added bonus.

Johnny’s hand snaked around the back of your neck to encourage you to take more of him. You looked up at him, eyes wide with tears streaming down your cheeks, while saliva escaped from your stretched-out lips.

“So pretty for us like this, Sweetie.”

Wade’s mask almost seemed to be emotive as he looked down on you, his long fingers fisting his cock with increasing speed as he watched you take Johnny down. It was disconcerting that he was completely naked except for his mask, but that was none of your business. He was sincere, despite the sarcastic monologue.

“I’ve always wanted to say that in real life and not just in my 1D/Destial crossover fanfics on Tumblr. Username is MrsLarryDestiel (no spaces) if you want to follow.”

Wade was leaning over to Johnny, who had steam rising from his head as he gazed down at you with devotion. You felt his amusement at this entire scenario. You tried to smile back around him, even though you knew his affection was only due to your skill.

After all, you’d just met him less than an hour earlier. 

“Get your hand off my ass before I burn it off, Wade.”

“Was just trying to help you push it in her tiny little mouth. Wasn’t trying to cop a feel of what looks a lot like America’s Ass, not really,” quipped Wade who was stroking and looking down at Johnny’s derriere.

Before anyone got injured, you pulled off of the hot one’s dick and licked Wade’s thick plum shaped tip.

“Sssss. Ahhhh, yes!”

 Wade groaned and threw his head back.

 “Suck that dick like your life depends on it, Sweetie. It may be our very last night on earth. I mean, in the void.”

You sensed no fear in Wade, only irreverence.

You followed his direction and opened wide as he slid his long, thick, Deadpool dick along your outstretched tongue. Wade was still talking, of course, even as he made eyes at Logan, who was lurking on the edges of the light, pulling on his dick with two hands and making low, almost indiscernible grunts. 

Now there were about a thousand different emotions coming off him, irritation, rage, despair, grief, a deep sadness, and foremost right now, need and frustration. You tried to watch him through your tear-filled eyes.

Wade and Johnny took turns with your mouth as Logan just moved nearer, his large, impressive cock raging against those impossible abs. His stare, and his body, made you drip even more in the dirt floor of the cave they were captive in for the night.

You needed him inside you, to at least extinguish his need. But yours was growing too.

“Why don’t you relax over there while we get her ready, Mr. Grumpy Pants. Little Miss Triple Threat looks like she’s almost ready to take three cocks at once in all of her holes.”

The Wolverine grunted, but went to a spot just a few feet away and reclined against a cave wall as he continued to handle himself.

Wade looked down at you and stroked your hair again, stage whispering to you as you deep throated Johnny’s cock down your throat.

“I know he seems like a party pooper and not down for this at all, but the fact that his beautiful meat is hard and leaking precum, which is delicious, bee tee dubs, oh, AND HE'S NAKED, means he definitely is.”

You smiled around the dick in your mouth and nodded as you pulled off Johnny, a string of saliva connecting you three as Wade grabbed you by the hair and plunged down your throat, barely giving you time to take a breath.

As you choked, you could see Logan jacking off faster from the corner of your eye as you swallowed Wade whole. Even with the mask, you could tell when his eyes rolled back into his head as you took every single inch.

“Get over here and sit on my dick.”

You were surprised at Logan’s voice, not having heard much of it during his ride in the cage, except to tell Wade and Johnny to shut up. Currently, his tone was more intense and raspy with desire.

You did as you were told and the action moved from the fireside to where Logan was reclining. 

“Move the fuck around, asshole.”

Wade stomped his foot.

“That’s what I’m trying to give you, Wolvie, baby.”

But he moved from in front of you so that you could take your throne.

“C’mere.” 

Logan reached up for you, the tender gesture a contrast for the crude situation you are in: fucking these men because it was the last night of their lives, which it almost surely was. You knew when Pyro let you into the cave halfway to her lair where they stopped for the night that no one escaped Cassandra.

You almost felt sorry for them. But when you read their emotions, you sensed no fear in these heroes. Only a myriad of other things including pent up tension, stress and desire for you. And for freedom. Or at least the sensation of being free.

Fucking all three of them would free your own soul, if only for the short time you would spend with them. They were all fine, and they looked like they would be a good time. If they only knew that your purpose was distraction, to keep them busy and not trying to escape.

If you searched their emotions hard enough you might find that they knew what you were about, and that they didn't care.

You accepted the offer of Logan’s hands and settled on his muscular thighs, glancing at the other men stroking themselves by firelight to the sight of you stretching yourself around the thick head of Logan Howlett, the Wolverine’s, cock.

Their attention only made you wetter and you slid further down Logan’s thick staff than you thought you could. When Johnny and Wade each grabbed a nipple as you whined and got even slicker the sensations allowed you to encase that extra inch at the base of him.

You were so full, not having been stretched like this in a while with a human, visually pleasing partner in a long time. You moaned in pleasure and closed your eyes, biting your lip at the delicious sting of taking him.

Logan looked up into your eyes and then commanded you with that deep, sexy voice.

“Open your eyes, look at us, and bounce on this cock Sweets.”

The smack on your ass spurred you on as Johnny leaned against the wall, watching your tits bounce as he jacked himself, and Wade got behind you, straddling Logan's thighs and rubbing them. You thought you knew what was coming next as you felt Wade’s hot breath on your shoulder as his hard length slid through your slick folds. But you were surprised as he entered you, although not in the hole you expected.

Within a few seconds, Wade was nestled deep within your cunt, cock alongside Logan’s in your snug sleeve, making you mad with pleasure. An obscene groan from you accompanied Logan’s warning to Deadpool.

“Watch it fuck face.”

Loan’s voice was husky, and there was a glimmer of a smirk as he grasped your breasts, roughly pulling on your nipples. Fear of his claws coming out and injuring you caused the contractions of pleasure in your belly to quicken, even as Wade sassed him back.

“You can fuck my face later buddy. Right now, let’s both concentrate on fucking this beautiful, nice, accommodating lady’s beautiful, nice accommodating cunt..”

The two men fell into an oddly synchronistic, sinful rhythm, both of them filling you to the brim in the best way possible, sexy groans finally replacing the smart words coming from Wade and literal grunts and groans coming from Logan.

Johnny moved, filling your mouth and causing your moans to vibrate around his shaft as Logan and Wade fucked you stupid.

“Holy fuck!”

Johnny rasped as you started sucking his balls, your legs shaking as Logan and Wade pounded you into oblivion. You feel a tremendous pressure and you tried to run from what was coming, but Wade’s fingers were circling your clit and Logan’s hands are around your waist, his mouth latched onto your left nipple. That and the feeling of Johnny’s fingers massaging your scalp collided to make your impending doom come much more quickly.

You pulled off of Johnny's unit to scream.

“Oh shit, oh shit, ohhhhhh shitttttt, I- I- I- I’m cummingggg!”

“Holy shit, she's gushing like Old Faithful all around us!”

You soaked Logan as you squirted, seemingly never endingly, all over. everywhere. Wade slipped out of you and so did Logan, but instead of giving someone else a turn with your pussy, Logan growled in your hair and pitched you forward onto his chest with his hands underneath your thighs. 

“Want that ass.”

You clenched around nothing as Logan lifted you up and squeezed your ass cheek in order to give his hard, thick cock access to your puckered hole. You were so wet that he kept slipping around until you felt Wade reach in and grab Logan’s dick, pumping it a couple of times before guiding it home inside your tight ass.

You saw the sneer, and you heard the ‘schnick’ of Logan’s claws coming out and Wade’s giggle as he explained. 

“Just trying to help with the mission, Boss.”

You didn’t care about any of it as your head lolled back on your shoulders because Logan was filling you up deliciously.

Wade retreated and pulled his mask up to lick his fingers. He and Johnny resumed stroking as they watched Logan pounding you mercilessly from below, your cum making it embarrassingly easy. You locked eyes with him, and grabbed the tufts on top of his hair for purchase as you screamed and came again, just from his cock in your ass.

"Ahhhhh! Shittttt!"

“Mmmmnhhh! Incoming, Sweets”

Logan’s cum spurted inside you and began to leak out around his cock, making you even messier than before.

“Ugh. Fuck. So good.” 

He kissed your forehead as he softened inside you, then lifted your thigh to slide out from underneath you. You braced yourself on the wall as you tried to catch your breath and savored the feeling of him dripping down your legs and the peace, if only momentary, emanating from his soul. You didn’t realize that your eyes were closed until you felt  a new desperation accompanied by a hand on your arm and two hands on your ass. 

“Don’t usually go for sloppy seconds, but I’ll take it tonight.”

Johnny’s sparkling blue eyes and sincerity held you captive. His tender kiss on your lips distracted you as you felt Wade’s hands on your ass and you lowered yourself down around Johnny’s long cock.

Johnny slipped easily inside you because Wade and Logan had stretched you out, but he was so hot, literally, that you quickly clenched down on him. Your hands caressed his shoulders and trailed down his sternum and his happy trail to where you were connected. 

The way he looked at you from under his long eyelashes made you want to give him a show. You bit your lip and circled your clit, earning a groan and an appreciative stare from him as you started to ride. 

You sensed a sudden a wave of mischievousness from Wade and felt his tongue in our ass. He moaned, sending vibrations up your spine as he caused you to clench around his wet muscle and Johnny’s cock. He slurped you up, and pulled away momentarily to come up and whisper in your ear.

“Mmmm. You and Logan taste so good. You’re doing amazing, Sweetie.

He was down again and licking you clean, causing irritation to emanate from Johnny.

“I’m tryna cum, here, Wilson. Stop licking my balls, you jerkoff.”

Wade came up and wiped his mouth.

“So sorry, that was a total mistake. Didn’t mean to touch your huge, full, sexy balls with my velvet tongue. Not at all, Johnny.”

“Shut the fuck up, I’m trying to concentrate on this Sweetheart right. Here.”

Johnny kicked Wade away, stroked upward to make you moan, and then grabbed you by the neck as he flipped you over onto your back, grasping your thighs and folded you in half like a pretzel. 

“You ready to take this hot cock?”

You nodded enthusiastically as Johnny Storm began to fuck you relentlessly, his long cock reaching that magic spot inside you as you tightened around him, much to your chagrin.

It was going to be over too soon. You wanted him to use you longer.

“Mmmmph, Darlin’ I feel you, still so tight around me even after these two knuckle heads fucked your cunt silly. Should be loose, but damn, girl. C’mon. Cum for me like you did for Wolverine and Wade. Gimme that shit.”

Johnny reached down and strummed your clit, as Wade came and held your legs in place, his oddly beautiful cock hard against his abdomen. You stretched your neck and teabagged him, earning a choked, garbled moan, and no words from him.

Out of the corner of your eye, you saw Logan standing over you and stroking his hard-for-you-again dick.

“Shit, shit, sheeeeiiittttttttt this pussy is so good. Fuck!”

Johnny pulled out and stood over your body as you scrambled up on your knees to open your mouth for your reward. The men gathered around you as first Johnny spurted white, hot cum all over your face, then Logan jerked on your tits, rubbing his bulbous tip all over your nipples, and Wade just sprayed everywhere as he watched the show.

You collapsed on your knees, wiping your face as strong arms lifted you up and took you to the other side of the cave and started washing you off with a bucket of water that had been warming by the fire. You looked up into Logan’s eyes and he avoided your gaze, concentrating on getting the cum out of your hair.

“You can rest now. We’ll cook up this bird that Pyro threw in here for food and you can sleep for a while.”

You sensed genuine tenderness, and another spark of a future need within him. You knew that they would wake you up for more than food later.

And you were more than okay with that. 

So you just smiled at him as his hand trailed the water down your body, this moment a respite for all of you, in the chaos of Cassandra’s world.

TRULY MADLY DEEPLY

Pairing: George Weasley x Fem!reader Summary: George finally got you in his arms after years of liking you. Warnings: none, i think. Notes: very short little thingy, based on the 1D song because i still love them 😘

George was wondering whether he was asleep or awake as he looked down at you, your head laying on his chest, your own rising and falling slowly as you slept in the comfort of his bed.

it felt like he was in dream. was he dreaming of you here with him?

he couldn't believe you were on his bed with him, sleeping in the warmth of his arms, there was no way you were perfectly entwined with him.

after all these years of trying to impress you, years of glances, winks, jokes and years of loving you and wishing you were his, he finally had you, curled up in the safety of his embrace.

all of the late nights where he pictures this exact scenario, the real thing was defiantly considered to be an upgrade.

he wasn't just Fred's twin now, he was George, the guy he finally got the girl of his dreams, and he didn't plan of letting her go, and he wasn't ashamed to tell it to the world.

cause he is truly, madly, deeply in love with you.

--

George woke up to the sight of you still asleep and he knew he wasn't imagining it, you were still here, with him.

he got up and pondered whether he should make you tea with some crumpets or toast and bring it to you when you wake up.

and he would kiss you and tell you about every feeling he has for you that he hasn't told you already. or he could just play cool and pretend it was no big deal.

George wished he could freeze this moment in a frame and stay like this forever, with this view of you, looking so peaceful so he could play it back and keep reliving it

Georg loved you so much it started to scare him, he's never felt like this about anyone and somehow you came along, breaking down all of his walls but he's proud to say your his.

because you'll always keep him truly, madly, crazy and deeply in love with you and he doesn't think he'll ever stop.

because he hopes he's not a casualty, that you'll get up and leave because he might not mean much to you, but you mean everything to him, even if you don't know it.

because he's in love with you. truly, madly, deeply in love with you.

he snapped out of a trance and noticed you were now awake, yawning at you sat up, rubbing your eyes.

you looked up at him and smiled

"morning, Georgie" you mumbled, tired and relaxed.

"good morning, love" he grinned.

HOW TO BECOME A FIGHTER PILOT

So as you may or may not know, I am writing a fanfic. Unfortunately for me, I can never do things half way, and because aviation is my passion I must do hours of research on a particular subject that I probably won't even use or reference in said fanfic. Here is a guide for how our favorite characters (probably) became fighter pilots. If there are inaccuracies let me know, I want to know :)

United States Naval Academy

The USNA is an undergraduate college that is a combination of academics and military development programs. Students who want to go into Flight School could qualify with one of a variety of different majors, but there are particular majors that obviously may provide a bit of an advantage to aspiring pilots. The USNA currently offers a variety of different majors and minors, though there are fewer than you might expect from a typical university, and overall the degrees are more tailored towards the Navy. They encourage participation in athletics in the form of a Varsity or club/intramural sport(1). 

NOTE: Maverick likely attended a regular college and was a part of the Naval ROTC program at that school. He would have gotten his degree in a field relevant to aviation, likely Mechanical Engineering given his mechanical aptitude seen in Top Gun Maverick, and then attended the 13-week program called Officer Candidate School. To be honest, Maverick’s path within the Navy is a mess and impossible to follow but in the most straightforward scenario, he would go to flight school following Officer Candidate School.

Flight School 

Flight School is an approximately 2-year-long program that is required for Naval Aviators to earn their wings. Primarily located at the “Cradle of Naval Aviation” aka Pensacola, FL, flight school consists of many different phases that will divide students into different specializations. 

1. Naval Introductory Flight Evaluation (NIFE)

Divided into four phases, NIFE is a program that evaluates students�� aeronautical aptitude as well as screens them to ensure they’re capable of becoming aviators. Students may earn a “pink sheet” for any score below 80% or a failure of a task, requiring them to stand before a panel of instructors to explain why they failed and how they plan to improve. Too many pink sheets result in removal from the program(2).

1a. Water Survival Training Following medical clearance, students are taught and tested on their ability to swim while wearing flight gear as well as formerly instructed on various survival techniques and CPR(2).

1b. Academics  A 3-week phase where students take classes and exams in five subjects. It is condensed to test a student’s ability to retain information, learn new information in a high-stress environment, and challenge their self-discipline in regard to time management and other areas(2).

1c. Introductory Flight Screening (IFS) Students are entered into a 2-week-long modified civilian flight training program where one week is dedicated to ground school courses before they must conduct a series of flights in a Cessna using Navy flight procedures during the second week. Students had to memorize and prioritize information to complete the flights, specifically in regard to conducting pre-flight briefings and emergency procedures. Overall, they’ll conduct seven flights in which they are required to complete a set of standardized maneuvers(2). 

1d. Aviation Physiology A week-long training course that consists of emergency-specific training evolutions such as the hypoxia chamber, emergency first aid, and the “helo dunker.” The “helo dunker” (from what I understand) is a particular training device that consists of strapping a pilot into a cockpit-like or helicopter contraption within a pool and submerging the entire structure under the water, simulating an environment in which their aircraft has landed in the water and they need to escape from the seat(3). An image of this can be seen below(2).

The Top Gun cast had to undergo a similar training course in order to be allowed to fly in military airplanes for filming. A video of some of their training can be viewed below.

2b. Aviation Pre-Flight Indoctrination

A 6-week long program that marks the beginning of the aviation pipeline. Located in Pensacola, FL, students attend classes covering the basics of aerodynamics, weather in relation to aviation, air navigation, flight rules and regulations, and aircraft engines and systems (3). 

Prior to API, those interested in becoming Radar Intercept Officers (RIO) will have expressed their interest and requested a designation as a Naval Flight Officer (NFO). 

2c. Primary Flight Training

A 6-month-long program that teaches the students the basics of flying. There are two locations for Primary, one at Training Air Wing 5 at Naval Air Station Whiting Field in Pensacola, FL, or Training Air Wing 4 at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi in Corpus Christi, TX. Both Naval Air Stations (NAS) are taught the same curriculum and fly the same aircraft, the T-6 Texan II. The students learn about the instruments, flight basics, radio instrument navigation, formation flying, and aerobatics, and also conduct several solo flights. At the end of Primary, students choose which pipeline they would like. This is conducted depending on the needs of the Navy and how many spots are available(3). 

Obviously, Iceman, Slider, Goose, Cougar, and everyone else got Jets, though they may not have gone through flight school at the same time. 

2d. Intermediate Flight Training

Intermediate Flight Training is a 27-week program. Split into five platforms; Jet, E2/C2, Helicopter, Maritime, and E-6 TACAMO. The jet platform flight training focuses more on navigation, air traffic control, individual skills, and cooperative skills of flying jets. The intermediate flight training program for jets is located at Meridian, MS (Training Air Wing One) at either VT-7 or VT-9, and Kingsville, TX (Training Air Wing Two) at either VT-21 or VT-22, both of which teach the same curriculum. Students in the jet platform will complete 58 graded flights in the T-45C Goshawk jet trainer aircraft(3). 

2e. Advanced Flight Training

Similar to Intermediate Flight Training, the program is split into five platforms but lasts 23 weeks. The students will probably have stayed with the same training squadron throughout the intermediate and advanced flight training. This stage includes learning skills specific to the chosen platform. The Advanced Flight Training program for jets is what’s called the Strike Syllabus. The Strike Syllabus includes an additional 67 graded flights in the T-45 covering air combat maneuvers, low-level navigation, tactical formation flying, and aircraft carrier qualifications. Students will then graduate from Advanced Flight Training with the Wings of Gold(3). 

3. Squadron Selection 

The final selection process assigns naval aviators to a particular squadron based on the needs of the service. Naval Aviators are assigned to a fleet replacement squadron or other similar training assignments for further training on their specific aircraft type. Here, RIOs and pilots must become qualified by gaining the required flight hours and meeting the proficiency standards necessary.

NOTE: It’s kind of hard to figure out when exactly the RIO training occurs. I know it takes place over the course of all the primary through advanced training occurs as well but I’m not sure if they have to attend seperate courses for it. 

TOPGUN

From there, pilots and RIOs may have been moved to their first official squadron for deployment. They would have been in their first squadron for approximately one and a half years, deploying with them. Their squadron would come back from a deployment and during the stand-down time before their next deployment, their commanding officer would select them to go to TOPGUN.

Summary: A summer thunderstorm has your anxiety spiking, but your husband knows just how to care for you and your baby daughter.

AN: This popped into my mind during a storm earlier. First I thought of writing it for Harry, then wanted to switch to Louis, and finally realized it could work for any of the boys. I've seen stories before written so that you can choose the protagonist, so I decided to try that! No names are used so you can choose which of the boys star in this imagine!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You pace around your living room, baby monitor in hand, as you watch the summer thunderstorm rage outside. You’d been woken up fifteen minutes prior by a loud clap of thunder. After five minutes of tossing and turning, you knew that falling back asleep was not going to happen. Rather than wake your husband, you snuck out of the bedroom and began your patrol across the plush carpet of the main living space. 

The room normally feels cozy, a place decorated just perfect for your family. But now it feels dark, and eerie, lit only by flashes of lightning that cast shadows across the walls. 

Another streak of lighting flashes and you nearly scream as it brightens the space enough for you to see another person. Before you can panic, you hear your husband’s voice say, “What are you doing out of bed, love?”

After taking a deep breath you reply, “The thunder. It woke me up.”

“Pretty intense storm isn’t it? Can’t remember the last time I’ve seen one like this. Oh, remember our honeymoon? We got caught just as it started to rain and ended up absolutely drenched,” he says. He chuckles at the memory, then notices you’re quiet next to him, rather than laughing along.

“What’s wrong?” he asks, finally picking up on your current disposition. 

“I don’t know what it is, but this storm has me feeling really anxious. I used to love watching them, but now I can’t stop thinking about worst case scenarios,” you explain.

“You’re a mum now. There’s a tiny human that depends on you. That changes your perspective on a lot of things. I know it did for me. Are there any particular worries you have right now?”

“What if a tree falls and we can’t get to her?” you say, voicing your concern even though it feels ridiculous and far fetched. But your daughter’s just five months old, and she moved into the crib in her own room a few days prior. It’s already been a hard transition for you and the storm is just adding to your feelings that maybe it’s too soon. 

Without any judgment, he replies, “Her bassinet is still in our room. We could bring her back for the night, that way if something happens she’s right there.”

“Yea, that’s a good idea, let’s do that,” you reply. “But what if lightning strikes the house and it catches on fire?”

“How about you go grab our little girl and set her up in our room, and I’ll get a bag together with anything we’ll need if we have to make a quick escape, alright?”

“Okay. I like that plan. Just, don’t be gone too long.”

“I’ll join you in just a couple of minutes,” he assures you, pressing a kiss to your temple before setting out to complete his task. 

You go and gently pick up your daughter, and as you walk into your bedroom she starts to stir. It’s around the normal time she wakes up to eat, so you settle in the rocking chair to feed her. Having her in your arms instantly soothes you, and you're calm as you finish up and move to change her diaper. Just as you’re settling her back into the bassinet, your husband walks into the room and places a bag next to the door.

With your baby sleeping soundly, the two of you climb back into bed. You listen closely, and it’s quiet. The storm has ended.

Suddenly you feel embarrassed for your overreaction to a typical summer storm, and say, “I’m sorry for being so crazy tonight.”

“No, baby, you’re not crazy. You’re an absolute momma bear, thinking ahead and making sure we’re prepared.”

“I just want her to be safe. I need to protect her.”

“She is safe. And you do protect her. And you’re not alone. I’m right here. I am always going to do everything in my power to keep you and her away from any harm. I promise.”

“I love you,” you say with a shy smile.

“I love you too. C’mere, let’s get some rest,” he says as he opens his arms. You cuddle into him, and are lulled to sleep by the soft sounds from your sleeping daughter, and the beating of your husband's heart.

Why did the heroes view Tomura Shigaraki as a 1D-villian after displaying symptoms of unresolved trauma?

I still think about this on occasion and I really think a lot of people forget about it when talking about the villains. There genuinely was no precedent for seeing villains in any context outside of being criminals. Even All Might parrots this idea.

When Tomura was ranting about his need to tear down the symbol of peace at the USJ All Might looks to Midoriya and tells him, to his face, that villains trying to make any kind of argument about the faults of society are deflecting so they can excuse their own desire to do bad. And he warns Izuku not to fall for it, as if it's an intentional deception rather than a crack in the facade that can explain why Tomura is like this and what could be done to help him.

This is why I hate the argument that the ending is weak because hero society doesn't change. I think people making that argument aren't actually clear that THIS WAS THE PROBLEM. It wasn't the billboard charts, it wasn't heroes not being more strictly penalized, it wasn't the prison system, it wasn't the HSPC. The problem at the core of My Hero Academia's society, the problem that let All For One manipulate these isolated and broken people into a threat to the entire world was an inability to recognize villains as human.

This is why the scene with Joki at the end of the manga is so important. Now that the idea that most villains come about from being mistreated or abused with no safety net, people start to rethink how they used to react to these kinds of scenarios. They're seeing suffering first rather than a threat and the fact that Tomura's suffering went on for so long, the fact that things got this bad, will forever be a reminder to never take steps back when faced with people like him again.

Book Recs

This is literally all over the place and I read a lot of diff tropes, I realize now I read a lot of dark romance which makes sense why Reaper is one of our best fics lol (maybe I need to write more dark harry? Lmk)

But here’s a mixed bag. I’ve read over 400 books in the last 2 1/2 years (again idk I go through them fast lol) and if you want more recommendations in certain genres I’d be happy to do so!

A lot of these are series recommendations as well because I tend to be a serial series reader and I’m trying to find more one offs so if you have any recs I’m so willing to read and tell you what I think!

This with yn and harry on the red carpet during the 1d days

oh my gosh YESS

As the band moves down to the next spot of the red carpet, YN clutches the side of the long train of her dress to make sure Niall or the other boys don’t step in it—by accident or on purpose. They all situate themselves so that each band member can place a hand on each other’s backs as they pose to get their pictures taken. Harry has to admit, this is one of his favorite stances that the band takes on walks like these. Since being a teenager, thankfully he’s been able to control the blush that tends to rise to his cheeks at her soft touch. 

It’s moments like these where he slips into a faint daydream. While he loves the boys so very dearly, he imagines a scenario where it’s just the two of them on the red carpet—waiting in line at a coffee shop, walking down the streets lined with shopping outlets, or escorting her out of a fancy restaurant. With his hand protectively and possessively clutched around her waist, she would be his and nothing else would matter. 

Out of the corner of his eye, he can see the way how naturally she shifts her head to the screaming paparazzi in front of them, the lights from their flashing cameras are blinding but she makes it seem like it's no bother to her. She poses so elegantly, her mesh-covered leg peaks out just enough from the slit of her dress and it leaves him having to concentrate extra hard to keep his gaze forward. 

He also sees the way she looks down at herself, taking her hand out from Niall’s back and trying (but failing) to discreetly tug on the top part of her dress as she feels it begins to slip. It was yet another tactic their management has forced upon her “good girl” image: making the fabric at her bust compressed and low yet “hiding” it under a layer of mesh to not seem too exposed.

Without a second thought, Harry rotates himself to stand in front of her as she adjusts her tight fabric over her chest. He doesn’t look down at her at first as he gives her the privacy that she needs. Instead, he fixes his gaze on one of the American Music Awards icons on the wall beside her head, rubbing his index finger under his nose with that furrow in his eyebrows. 

YN looks up at him surprised but quickly takes the opportunity to finish fixing herself, ignoring the groans and questioning the paparazzi yell out. Although Harry’s the sweetest man she’s ever met in her life, the scowl on his face as he looks beside himself can intimidate any building of a man. When he finally meets her eyes, his heart nearly melts in his chest at the endearing smile she gives him. With a nod of reassurance, she gives him a loving squeeze of his arm in return as he goes back to his spot next to her left.

If this were a different scenario, if he truly acted out on the  “bad boy” persona that their management team tried to bestow onto him, if he wasn’t media trained for it (or if his mum didn’t teach him any better), he would yell back at the deafening men at the barricade with their cameras reaching for the best shot of the band. 

Unknowingly to her, all of his anger seems to dissipate when he feels her hand slide from its platonic place at the middle of his broad back to the bottom of his spine. The action is unexpected to him and it almost makes him physically shudder at her touch.

So instead of his mutual facial expression that he’s been giving the cameras from the start of the night, a small smirk sits comfortably on his lips.

I’m just perusing your tumblr and you seem great but do people actually think Louis Tomlinson is gay? Like not just a fun ship but like really think he’s closeted? I’m a middle aged gay and I can’t read him like that at alllll ha ha. Harry definitely seems to be in a glass closet scenario to me. But I guess I only know bits and pieces about the guy. No judging just confused!

Hi nonny!!

The short answer is yes. I personally think he's VERY gay and that early on in the band days he worked hard to tamp down some of his more camp mannerisms. The are lots of examples, but one thing I'm not is a fandom historian, so I can't pull out the links for you ( @statementlou might be willing to, though), but there's been multiple times that he showed himself to be very aware of lgbtq+ fans during 1d and now.

In my experience, I was fortunate enough to attend one of his first solo performances before his first album came out, and watched with awe as he literally pointed at every visible rainbow flag in the lower levels (I'm not exaggerating, it was kinda ridiculous to watch).

Oh! My personal favorite moment is from early on, though-- their performance at G.A.Y. There's just something about watching Louis at 18, smiling and laughing and licking cake off his fingers to a crowd full of gay men that just *clenches fist*

Someone link it please!!

Anywayyyyy that's my thoughts! Keep in mind that I do default to thinking most people aren't straight, so it's not hard to convince me that someone is gay. If you're not convinced, that's okay! I don't feel the need to convert anyone to my way of thinking ♡

[the-bitterest-breakups-poll]

Poll: Round 1d #5

*Reminder that Break up is being used loosely here and not all relationships may be romantic in nature

Propaganda under cut:

Yoo Yunghyuk and Anna Croft:

so in one of the lifetimes. they were allies. companions if you will. trusted each other deeply. and then there came this scenario (basically a quest) where two people would get locked in a room together and there’s this star in the middle and whoever grabs the star first can control the other person whatever. the only way to pass this scenario successfully is for no one to grab the star. unfortunately,

anna croft grabs the star and yoo joonghyuk becomes her slave until he dies and in every lifetime after that he tries to kill her. very messy breakup all around as you can tell

Archie and Maxie:

the gist is that they were once close friends, but then the drifted apart due to their different ideas on how to commit ecoterrorism which leads to the main conflict of the Hoenn games, especially Emerald and ORAS.

Also I just want to share this tweet by the OFFICIAL Pokémon company

Larry questions

1. Do you think larry has read fanfics like TTS and y&b. A lot of people say no but to me that is SOOOOO HARRY LIKE. and Louis tries to always act like he’s not deep or meaningful (talking about how the tattoos mean nothing or whateve) but I feel like his real personality? definitely reading fics. Being harry and Louis doesn’t change them from being human. They’re jus like us with experiences and money we won’t be able to comprehend but yea

2. Do you think larry uses this “ship” for promo? Like have you seen things when they’ve been off duty that’s shows larry is real? Or is it always during a fine like promotion, a FITF promotion that they’ll do soemthing larry like. For walls the tattoos as cover pages … yk? Like was that a declaration or promo reasons. and frankly I do not think harry needs to do that anyways 😭 but it gets to me. Obviously what we saw in the band was pure love 100% and afterwards as well. I just sometimes think. Afterwards whether or not people think they’re together, using Larry for promo would be so smart. I know they’ve gotten tatttos and have transcended a different level of love trust and commitment. But …. I jut think. But again I don’t think thoses boys could be in love and then out of love and using their love for promo years after. I don’t know. What do you think?

3. Do you think larry was trying to pull a friendship narrative around July? As far as I know they were both off work (not relaising anything or touring) but they chose to be pictured CLOSE to each other in the same room. I feel like that shows that they wanted to introduce themselves to the public as friends slowly. Before the passing happend ofc. What do you think? Alor of people think they broke up. It would be funny after they broke up they’re like ok let’s start to show them we are friends!!!! I feel like they couldn’t just be friends thoses two. They were always soemthing more.

4. What’s your favourite year of larry? One that’s your favourite to look back at and all that happend that year? Mine is 2015😋

4.5. Your favourite 1D friendship?

5. People are so dumb to excuse Larry when there’s been a constant theme in the songs harry has written that shows he’s been in a long term realrionship. Kacey Musgrave saying Harry Harry larry and then the still the one situation…. The interviewer who said 16 years is a long commitment… so many songs on fine line showing devotion and a strong sense of love that wouldn’t develop that’s quickly (it can but yk)

Do you have a post on larry having the same braincells? Like liking the same artist, being around the same people, having the same values?

And also do you have a thread on Larry friends —- not exposing but yk what Kacey musgrave did. “Exposing larry” do you know what I mean. Larrys friends showing that they’re larries and /or connected?

Lmk ur thoughts you’re very insightful.

Hi, anon! Wow, that's a lot to unpack, so I'll answer everything under the cut to avoid bothering people’s dashboards with a massive post. 😊

1. I think they’re definitely aware of it, but I really don’t believe they read it. Honestly, it would be so strange to see yourself in that kind of context. While we might think something feels “so Harry” or “so Louis,” the reality is that we only know a tiny fraction of their lives. Fics are amazing for us as fans, but if I were in their shoes, I’d feel pretty weirded out by seeing myself portrayed in fictional scenarios through someone else’s perspective hahah so if it were me, I’d avoid it completely and that's I also believe for them.

2. I do think they use Larry for fan service, especially in recent years, as I feel the small signals they give are more about giving something to the fandom/larries than anything deeper and meaningful for them.

But I don’t think it’s entirely accurate to call it “promo.” I think both of them have leaned into this treasure hunt dynamic over the years, using the fandom’s (larries) incredible cryptic-solving skills. I mean, we've been trained for that with the bears. And Louis’ fanbase, which has a higher percentage of Larries, might be more directly impacted by these little hints... maybe in his lyrics or actions, but I don’t think Harry’s promo strategies rely on it at all. His fanbase is massive, and larries are just a small fraction of it. So this kind of signaling doesn’t seem aligned with his career approach.

3. No, I don’t believe in this “friendship narrative” thing at all. It’s just not going to happen.

4. I’m going to say 2015 too, anon! There was so much entertainment hahaha and I loved seeing them together, I miss that dynamic so much.

4.5. Lilo!

5. Completely agree! Harry is so creative with his lyrics, but it’s also incredibly clear how devoted he’s been to this one particular relationship over the years. His songs are full of consistent themes—he keeps revisiting the same emotions and ideas, for sure!

I don’t have super consistent tags for the things that you asked, but here are a few:

SHARING IS CARING

MATCHY MATCHY

FAMILY AND FRIENDS

OUTINGS

EVERYONE KNOWS

Hope this helps! 😊

1D asks for you, yay! okay... 70. Who would you take to a desert island? 46. Favourite 1d moment?

plus bonus.. 2. Least favourite 1d song?

70. Who would you take to a desert island?

There was a poll with a similar question a while ago! (about Naked And Afraid ^^) I thought about it again, and I would take Liam in this scenario, too ♥ He was apparently in the boy scouts and liked to go camping, so I wouldn't be the only one with survival skills. And I think our personalities would work very well together and we could have a lot of fun. </3

.

46. Favourite 1d moment?

So many to choose from!

The puppy photoshoot, so ridiculous and adorable ♥

My Heart Will Go On

The a capella performances of Story Of My Life

Everything about Lilo at the Brits 2016

This interview just randomly came to mind xD

How they (or, well, Louis) handled Rock Me without Harry

And last but not least,

Where Do Broken Hearts Go with Ronnie Wood!

.

plus bonus.. 2. Least favourite 1d song?

So when I say "least favourite" it means "maybe I don't love it quite as much as the rest of their songs, but it's still one of the best songs ever by the best band ever ♥♥♥♥♥" Some possible contenders would be Happily, but only because I don't like that music genre and how trendy it was back then xD, Live While We're Young just for the fuckboi lyrics lol, and Irresistible because it's a kind of 'meh' ballad (but it has cool vocal harmonies) :3
