Rating: E | Category: F/M | Relationship: Lockwood/Lucy

(Click for summary)

She freezes, her situation barreling suddenly into full focus.

She’s lying on her side, lengthwise on the inner half of the sofa. Lockwood is flat on his back beside her, his body effectively trapping her against the sofa back. Her cheek is pillowed against his clavicle, and her right arm is resting on his chest, her palm pressed flat against his button-up. She can feel the individual fibers of the cotton. She can feel his heartbeat.

His breath is warm and steady against her hairline; if the regularity of his breathing is anything to go by, he’s fast asleep. And she can thank her lucky stars for that.

Because of greatest urgency at the moment: her right leg is slung across his waist, pressing right up against his groin. And he’s hard. Like, really hard.

(or: they get off with each other at christmas. they handle it very badly, and then very well)

I'M ALIVE

Hi CC! :D Long time no chat lol

I see everyone talking about their obey me MCs, so I decided to bother you with mineee (I'm sorry)

So uhh do you remember Raede? Did I ever mention about her twin??

Her name's Rado :D (I ship her w/ Beel eheheheh)

I cooked up some random angst here-

Ever since that time when Beel seeks comfort because of a nightmare (Lilith's death), Rado tries to get to know more. Eventually, this brings the two close, and Beel has praised Belphie multiple times.

Now cut to the scene where Dia and Barbs come to Purgatory Hall to get Belphie. Belphie states that he hates humans, and admits to loathing them and never liking them. Now this takes a huge toll on Rado's beliefs. The demon in front of her contradicts everything Beel said. She helped Belphie get out for BEEL. When Belphie was taken away, Beel's first thought was to get him back.

The demon hurriedly tugs on the human's arm, but she doesn't move. Frozen in place. He looks back, only to see emptiness. A sense of betrayal. Her thoughts being obvious: she was used. Beel feels guilty as he looks at Rado, but he says nothing, quietly going back to the HoL with her.

The brothers decide to get Belphie back, and then turn to Rado and Raede. The elder twin stays quiet, and the younger twin refuses to join.

Although it wasn't Beel's fault, Rado couldn't help but feel betrayed. She avoided talking to him for a while, much to his dismay. They had just started to get close.

(I didn't proofread)

How's your day going? :D

-📻

Hey there 📻 anon!

OOF the ANGST. I mean, I get it, I would feel used too! I hope they work it out at some point, though. I want them to be happy!

I think there's a lot of potential for interesting stories surrounding MCs and Belphie's dislike of humans, especially when Beel is involved too. AND you've got an MC with a twin? I love that I think it adds this whole other layer to the character's relationship with Beel or Belphie. 'Cause like I can't help but think that twins get other twins in a special way, you know? That lived experience they share.

Anyway, Beel should talk to Rado so they can work it out somehow!! Obviously this could happen in a variety of ways but I think communication is always needed for people to understand each other~

Tag Game + Seven Lines

Thanks for the tags @horseshoegirl! I've been tagged to share seven lines from a WIP. Here is a bit from Chapter 1 of You Are My Soulmate!

The stranger leaves his hands on your waist for several long moments. You're barely breathing. With each shallow breath you take, you can feel the heat of his big hands searing into your skin. You can see the flashes of gold in his whiskey eyes this close to him. 

You feel this intense urge to kiss him and are slightly surprised. Your mark containing your soul's physical features and song is checked off, but you're still unsure if he's your soul. But you desperately want to kiss this cocky, gorgeous stranger. You feel this intense ache to feel his mustache press against your skin and numb your lips as he kisses you wantonly, urgently.

No pressure tags: @footprintsinthesxnd, @desert-fern, and @sarahsmi13s!

[startrekfangirl2233]

Chapter Two of You Are My Soulmate is out now! This part is all Tinkerbell's perspective!

You Are My Soulmate

Bradley 'Rooster' Bradshaw x Reader

Status: In Progress

Last Updated: June 6th, 2023

Disclaimers: Female!Reader

A/N: This is a Soulmate!AU with a spin. Instead of having a single soulmark, a quarter of the population have multiple. Tinkerbell and Rooster are two of those people. I love Soulmate AUs, and well, the Top Gun Brain-Rot is still ever present, so here we go. This one is going to be a bit different for me, as I'm going to be trying out flipping perspectives within the chapters between Rooster and Tinkerbell (Reader's Nickname throughout the fic).

Themes: Angst, Smut, Soulmate!AU, Bradley is a bit of a dick, Rivals to Friends to Lovers, Unrequited Love (Slight, One-Sided)

Summary: You're ecstatic when you find out you have five soul indicators at midnight on the day of your twenty-first birthday, right before you start Officer Candidate School for the Navy in Rhode Island. OCS is so complex you can’t devote time to searching for your soulmate. On graduating from Officer Candidate School, Naval Aviation Command School, and Aviation Maintenance School at the top of your class, you are given the primary selection of detachment and travel worldwide as an Aviation Maintenance Duty Officer. The excitement you felt on your twenty-first birthday has changed over the past seven years, and you’re impatient to see who your soul is. After years of constant movement, it’s a relief to learn you have been assigned to run maintenance on a squadron’s planes out of Naval Air Station North Island. San Diego is sunny and gorgeous, an absolute dream after being stuck on an aircraft carrier in the middle of the ocean for the past six months. The Dagger Squad is a newly-permanent squadron based out of NAS North Island. Each member welcomed you to Miramar as a part of their maintenance crew with warmth and friendliness. Except for one pilot, callsign: Rooster. He’s the most unpleasant pilot you’ve ever met. He’s full of himself, cocky, arrogant, rude, and condescending. If only he didn’t feel so familiar. If only you didn’t feel so drawn to him. 

Bradley Bradshaw is sure he’s never going to find his soulmate. He’d been in mourning on his twenty-first birthday, still grieving the loss of his mother, followed by the loss of the only father he’d ever known, his Uncle Mav. It isn’t until Bradley is across the country at Officer Candidate School that he realizes he never received his soul indicators. Years later, and thousands of miles away, recovering from a plane crash, Bradley, now known as Rooster, jolts awake to the half-remembered scent of citrus and glistening hair in a thick braid. Without any other indicators, Rooster gives up. After all, who’d want a soul disfigured by something they loved? That’s when Bradley gives up. He sinks into the reputation of the piano-playing, mustachioed casanova and gives up on his dreams of finding a love like his parents had found in each other. And he’s content with his life until he runs into the feisty, loud mechanic newly assigned to NASNI. Something about her feels like everything Bradley’s been searching for, at least, if she weren’t completely committed to Bagman already. You can call him what you want, but Rooster doesn’t steal another man’s girl.

Outline for modern genderbend svsss au where they're all trans milfs (except for Binghe who is trans still but not a milf) cinematic universe:

[Act 1] Shen Yuan was on his path to a teaching degree at age 22~23 and began shadowing high school tenured teacher Shen Jiu (no relation, they just have the same last name and hate it) where he changes a young Binghe's life by protecting him from bullying and just generally being a better teacher than sj. Right before Binghe's last year of school, sy's health takes a sudden decline, he's hospitalized, and he has to postpone his degree. Through a miscommunication, Binghe believes that sy was fired for having too much contact w Binghe and is now somewhere else- devastated, he enrolls at the prestigious, yet secretly abusive, uni that sy had pushed him to apply to, with the goal of becoming successful enough to pull strings and give sy whatever he wants

[Act 2] While hospitalized, Shen Yuan staves off boredom by being terminally online. Through this, he meets and quickly becomes unlikely friends with 40 something year old mid tier author Shang Qinghua. Sqh offers sy an admittedly unglamorous job as her editor since he's pretty much given up on his degree at this point, as well as a place to stay away from his family when he gets out of the hospital. Sy accepts and after moving in, gets to know sqh, who is a trans woman who transitioned in her 30s when her first big book deal put her in a stable enough position to do so. Sy realizes she is also trans; the two gradually make sqh's newest work a bestseller and she's suddenly inundated with publishing and movie deals. Happy times. Meanwhile, Binghe becomes a demon (frat boy)

[Act 3] Sy hits 30, now comfortable in her cushy job as sqh's editor/agent. Unfortunately, she is tragically diagnosed with breast cancer shortly after her birthday. She undergoes a double mastectomy and luckily fully recovers with a strong support network, but the stress has taken its toll on her and her health and she begins going grey early. Binghe, now also a girl yippee, received unexpected inheritance money sometimes during uni and used it to become a highly successful businesswoman with connections throughout the education, political, and publishing spheres (because she remembers shen yuan was a big reader and wanted to be a lit professor). Now on the hunt for her old teacher, she's tipped off to her new life by business partner gilf-fucker Mobei Jun (38) who recently started seducing sqh

misc: in her 20s sqh made some quick cash by donating sperm, so biologically she is actually probably a grandma at this point

Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy August 1st 2024 Patreon Update.

First Thursday of the month so it’s time for another patreon update.

This time we have a variety of small but impactful changes to show off in the change log below, including a nearly complete ruleset for gorgon investigators!

Don’t forget, for a limited time, you can pick up a pdf copy of Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy for free by joining the A.N.I.M. TTRPG Book Club!

CHANGE LOG 

Copy-editing Progress: Thoroughly copy-edited up to p. 118.

WHOLE BOOK

We changed the top and bottom margins on each page to be smaller. Need to get fan feedback over whether this improves readability or not. 

CHAPTER 1

Copy-editing and cleanup, rearranged the order of many sections and changed some heading names. Overall huge improvements to the clarity and readability of the whole chapter. 

Added important sidebar about the intent of some of the chapter 1 sections

Fixed massive oversight/outdated text/miscommunication on how Base modifiers interact with Penalties and Composure. If you reread any section, reread “Rolls, Modifiers, and Consequences” as well as “Composure.” The short version is that even while being capped by Composure, Base modifiers are supposed to be able to negate penalties. So even at Composure 0, a total modifier of -2 penalty + +3 Base would total to 0, not -2. All traits and modifiers in Eureka were written with this interaction in mind, but it was communicated very poorly up until now. Thank God we caught that before the final release. 

Gave the defining of Investigative Rolls vs Non-Investigative Rolls its own section

Changed the term “Investigation Roll” to “Investigative Roll” due to “Investigation Roll” sounding too much like it was its own skill instead of a category of roll. 

Changed the title of the “Flat Composure Damage” section to “Meeting Basic Needs”

Added a new way for investigators to take flat Composure damage: Going a full day without shelter. 

Added a new section called “What Does a Session Look Like?”

Codified retroactive Investigative Rolls and gave them a -3 penalty.

Slight changes to Jumping during Jumpscares

Moved Jumpscares to Chapter 3

Changed the Tick Modifier for traveling by Flying to -5 instead of -4

Moved all the information from “Effective Use of the Ticking Clock” to just be under the “Ticking Clock” heading, it did not need to be a separate heading.

Added bullet points to the entire chapter.

Made tiny fixes to Third-Person Verbiage section

CHAPTER 2

Changed “Inventory in Eureka” to just “Inventory”

Started copy-editing Chapter 2. Did lots of cleanup, rearranged the order of many sections and changed some heading names. Overall huge improvements to the clarity and readability of the chapter, but the copy-editing of Chapter 2 is still a work-in-progress. 

Arranged the sections in step-by-step character creation order.

Started putting example skill ratings underneath each skill.

CHAPTER 3

Better clarified rules for equipping weapons. 

Moved Jumpscares to Chapter 3

CHAPTER 4

CHAPTER 5

CHAPTER 6

Fixed a sentence that was unfinished. 

Made it so the venom from venomous animals counting as chase obstacles does not kick in for 1D6 Ticks. 

CHAPTER 7

Added that NPCs can also have the Comfort and Medicine skills

Added “Torture” section

CHAPTER 8

Fixed some typos in thing from beyond sections

Made a few small clarifications in thing from beyond section, such that their “chewing” replaces the usual Submission Hold. 

Minor fairy clarifications

Added ability to influence weather to fairies

Added ability to cause poltergeist activity to fairies

Added Changeling to Misc. Supernatural Creatures 

Got rid of How Monsters Can Regain Composure section. Moved some of it to Chapter 7 as homebrewing advice, and instead put the amount of Composure restored by preying on people and how the monster interacts with normal means of restoring Composure like eating and sleep at the top of each True Nature. How many Composure Points a monster gets back for preying on victim will now be unique to each monster type. 

Updated how much composure wolfmen get for hunting. It is 1 Composure to eat a human, and 2 Composure to eat a human alive. 

Better codified fairytale witch true nature. 

Added Changeling Misc. Supernatural Trait

Added two new pieces of art

Minor vampire clarifications

Several thing from beyond clarifications. 

Made it so monsters require 21 Investigation Points for a Eureka! instead of 18.

As a temporary fix, since monsters are getting reworked as a whole (their actual abilities are not changing much, just how we format and structure them in the text), we have made it so that every Monster investigator gets one extra free Mundane Trait. 

Made major progress on the gorgon playable monster. It is still a work-in-progress, but should be mostly playable in this draft of the rulebook.  

Elegantly designed and thoroughly playtested, Eureka represents the culmination of three years of near-daily work from our team, as well as a lot of our own money. If you’re just now reading this and learning about Eureka for the first time, you missed the crowdfunding window unfortunately, but our Kickstarter page is still the best place to learn more about what Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy actually is, as that is where we have all the fancy art assets, the animated trailer, links to video reviews by podcasts and youtubers, and where we post regular updates on the status of our progress finishing the game and getting it ready for final release.

Beta Copies through the Patreon

If you want more than just status updates, going forward you can download regularly updated playable beta versions of Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy and it’s adventure modules by subscribing to our Patreon at the $5 tier or higher. Subscribing to our patreon also grants you access to our patreon discord server where you can talk to us directly and offer valuable feedback on our progress and projects.

The A.N.I.M. TTRPG Book Club

If you would like to meet the A.N.I.M. team and even have a chance to play Eureka with us, you can join the A.N.I.M. TTRPG Book Club discord server. It’s also just a great place to talk and discuss TTRPGs, so there is no schedule obligation, but the main purpose of it is to nominate, vote on, then read, discuss, and play different indie TTRPGs. We put playgroups together based on scheduling compatibility, so it’s all extremely flexible. This is a free discord server, separate from our patreon exclusive one. https://discord.gg/7jdP8FBPes

Other Stuff

We also have a ko-fi and merchandise if you just wanna give us more money for any reason.

We hope to see you there, and that you will help our dreams come true and launch our careers as indie TTRPG developers with a bang by getting us to our base goal and blowing those stretch goals out of the water, and fight back against WotC's monopoly on the entire hobby. Wish us luck.

⋆｡˚𖦹 This Series was previously titled "Times in Sebastian's 5th year!!

As a reminder, this diverts heavily from Canon, using the characters from the game as foundations for a different story. Written in y/n (but slowly going back through to remove and leave only a few sparingly), it has more of a focus on Victorian standards for courting/relationships instead of just “hot and heavy” so to speak. If that appeals to you, please feel free to read and comment your suggestions for future parts.

[ohshy]

Feelin kinda down so fuck it- how about some burnt bread hcs if you got any?

If not, how about disco kid?

~ fan-mans

hope u feel better soon bro ! also HELL YEAH BURNT BREAD !!!!!!!! one of my favorites :3

so where does it all begin? well.... (under the cut bc its Long)

aran didnt actually have to use any of dirty tricks to take joe down, so they didn't start off on that bad of a foot, or a bad foot at all. (fighting is par for the course for this sport, of course.)

that being said though, you still see n hear things ab eachother, and have assumptions as a result. Aran initally sees joe as a snobby, wimpy man, and joe aran as a scary, unpredictable brute.

eventually, however, aran starts looking at joe... a little differently. he pranks him a lot because yknow. its funny. but joe doesnt seem to mind it at all... in fact, he takes his pranks really well, and it makes aran see strong joe is in a way and how much of a sense of humor he has.

joe at the other hand, noticed that aran, outside the ring, was actually fairly tame, outside of his pranks of course. it helped a lot with mellowing his perception of him. combine this joe's many hobbies and aran's try-everything attitude, and youve got the start of a click !

news of their little budding relationship spreads around the minor- and world circuit, and kaiser begins to take notice ab how joe talks ab aran, how hed normally b horrified at the prospect of him being anywhere NEAR him.

so one day, in all his eternal german grace, he says...

''well if you love him so much, why don't you two kiss, hm?''

and joe hadnt gotten that thought out of his head since.

as for disco kid hcs, ive already told most of them so ill talk ab how the minor circuit reacted to joe wanting to confess to aran instead !!

disco, albeit kinda scared of aran, is ecstatic for joe, wishes him luck and wants to know EVERYTHING about how it went afterward

i imagine hippo would be pretty whatever about it. guy isnt too concerned ab peoples love lifes. wishes him luck like disco tho.

meanwhile kaiser? ''Eh, it is your funeral''

I imagine the world circuit wouldn't be as close with eachother seeing as how theyre busier n likely more hounded by journalists, but they do know in broad terms what goes on in the lives of eachother.

so macho catches wind of aran's crush, and he basically shittalks joe to arans face

''I know everyone's standards are too high for you, but joe's just a sad bar, even for you.''

Aran, not even reacting to the dig against him, starts ranting to macho about how joe is admirable as all hell for getting back up after 99 losses, and how that must mean he has a real love and respect for the sport. He even boldly exclaims that joe arguably works harder than macho, the victories who seems to come so easily to him.

macho eventually leaves, deciding aran's not worth his precious time.

aran then turns around, and OMG HE SEES JOE STANDING THERE !!!!!

anyway he heard all about what aran said (thats right, overhearing ooc conversations and miscommunication happening is OUT, overhearing conversations and gaining respect for someone is IN), and confesses right there and then. aran, hearing prolly the most romantic speech thats ever been directed to him in his entire life, is at a loss for words. He can't say anything other than ''of course, joey.''

and thats the start of their relationship :3

as for other misc hcs that dont fit anywhere else...

one time, when cleaning out aran's jacket pockets (joe's a bit of a neat freak), he found... a bunch of lint. But also !! he found a ton of crumpled up notes. They included phrases for the ring, comedic poems... but they also had affirmations for himself, about his family, but also about joe. joe, sans the lint, left the pockets as is. ever since then though, he's felt closer to him than ever.

joe will often try to pick up aran like a princess. considering hes still decently muscled, he can do it succesfully.

joe loves baking, especially bread, but aran will ALWAYS manage to set something on fire. think spencer from icarly.

they infodump to eachother ab their respective countries histories and folk tales, joe esp ab the former n aran ab the latter.

one time, joe and aran set out for a night walk. then, they (or rather aran) thought he heard a banshee screech. what they actually heard prolly was a car tire screeching in the distance. aran, however, was never the less scared SHITLESS and ran tf home, screaming highpitched. He had to be comforted by joe all night after they got home.

aran loves going to theme parks. he loves the rush. joe, however, hates the tall rides like the rollercoasters, n prefers the calmer rides like the teacups. They have a ''goes onto the rollercoaster alone'' x ''holds the persons stuff while theyre gone'' dynamic.

they rly like singing duets together, especially after a couple drinks. wine in joe's case and beer in arans case. theyve sang at macho's parties before as well, and needless to say they make for great entertainment.

aran often sends joe cursed memes n selfies that joe just Does Not understand

''aran, i will Not hold feet with you, zat's disgusting''

''come on joey..... do ye love me or not......''

[ddeongies]

goddamn i was also going to make a comment about nmau yejis confidence vs insecurities but someone beat me to it (her self image as a whole is fascinating to me and although i do have a lot of thoughts everything is still a bit word salad-y).... regardless. nmau yeji .... idk how u make her hotter every chapter its crazy...

some misc thoughts before i attempt to wrangle my beast of a brain:

yejiselle beer pong partners. i love you.

overall i really do love the pacing, as frustrating as these 2 idiots can be, it's still a fun kind of frustrating because everything they do feels true to their characters. i feel like you genuinely care for them As Characters, and for the story as a whole, and i think whatever bullshit miscommunication drama predicaments they may or may not find themselves in will be well deserved and well executed. 🖤

the fire react 😭😭

i will always appreciate how much little guy energy your ryu has

and yeji... i think about her and my brain short circuits??? how ???is she???? so hot??????

thats all i can manage right now.....but i will definitely try to be back with more coherent words... have fun at ur show!!! 🖤

aahhh i'm glad y'all are enjoying her!! she's incredibly fun to write! i think one thing i'm trying to pull from irl yeji into nmau yeji is all of her idiosyncrasies (confident, humble, cool, talented, kind of clumsy, chill, intense, super sexy but also super cute?? i could go on lol). she's so hot lol i'm glad y'all agree

yessss i only dabble in aespa, but i think yeji and giselle's real life friendship is adorable and idk i think they'd be a menace at pong

i'm glad it's fun and you're enjoying the pace! i care about them and the story a lot and i'm really trying to make it natural as well as hopefully fun to read! i will do my best to make it as little like bullshit as i can (but they will def be a little frustrating, they are college students after all...)

nmau yeji said 🔥🔥🔥

little guy ryu is as important to me as yerizz is... she's the most little guy guy i've ever seen

yeji....... tbh i mostly write to process how hot yeji is but then i just make it worse for myself so 🤷🏽

looking forward to any thoughts you have at any time!! :D i will be seeing itzy live in 8 hours so idk if i'll be alive to answer any asks, but maybe my ghost will read them....

It all comes to a head during a routine AMDO inspection.

My Masterlist

Previous Part | Series Masterlist | Next Part

You can’t say that you’re the type to dream. When you work all day lugging around heavy machinery, you tend to conk out the minute your head hits your pillow, out for the count in seconds. Since you moved to San Diego permanently, or at least permanently until the US Navy tells you otherwise, you’ve dreamed an unprecedented number of times. The star of all of those dreams has almost always been Bradley Bradshaw. He’s haunting you all day when you’re at work and all night in your dreams.

You’re still not sure what to think of him. He’s the epitome of a mercurial, unreadable man. You’ve seen how he is with the newest Top Gun cohort, stern yet jovial, kind yet unyielding. The new students come alive under his tutelage. You wish you knew what you did to make him hate you so much. You still think back to that first night at the Hard Deck, to how sweet he'd been when you'd first met him, how he'd seemed to light your soul on fire with just a few words. Then that sweetness had drained away in minutes, leaving the calloused man you deal with day by day.

But back to the dreams. You've had them all at this point.  The vicious ones, you’ve had those where you’re screaming at him until you’re blue in the face. Those are the ones that make your blood turn into lava in your veins and have you heading to the gym on base at four in the morning so you can pound your aggression into one of the punching bags hanging there.

Shamefully, you can say you’ve had the dirty dreams, too. The ones where you’d felt the weight of Bradley’s body against yours and the heat of his hands as they’d traced over your form. Those are the dreams where you’ve felt the wet heat of his mouth as it trails over your skin and the prickle of his mustache in a burning trail across sensitive skin. Those are the dreams where you’ve most often had to take matters into your own hands.

Then there are the dreams you never want to wake up from. The dreams where he smiles at you like he smiles at his squadron, the dreams where you’re something sweet in his eyes. Not what you are, a tiny yet amazingly considerable pain in his ass.

It’s one of those dreams, the ones you never want to wake up from, that you’d had last night. Inexplicably, and perhaps typically, as the shadow of Bradley Bradshaw haunts your mind, it also makes a rage unlike everything you’ve felt before set into your veins. Why the hell does he haunt your dreams and every waking moment when he can’t stand the sight of you? You can’t avoid him either, at least not today. You’re unreasonably worked-up, and you know it, too. If you were a cartoon character, there would be smoke pouring out of your ears in great fat puffs and clouds, and you’d be seeing red, quite literally. 

You clomp your way through the hallways and across the tarmac on base. People actually move the other way when they see you coming today. You don’t have a smile for anybody this morning. There are raccoon-like circles under your eyes, and you’ve never felt so exhausted and unrested. You're also desperately clutching the biggest takeaway cup of coffee your local brewery had.

It just so happens that when you walk into the hangar you’ve got 24 aviators already assembled in front of you, each in their flight suits with their helmets nearby. At the front of the lined up aviators, who are all standing at attention, are Admirals Simpson, Bates, and Mitchell. You snap off a salute before taking your position next to Hondo. You can already feel your professional mask sliding into place. Gone is the disgruntled whirling-dervish that walked in and here now stands Tinkerbell, a Lieutenant Commander in charge of the finest AMDO team in the Navy.

You take a swig of coffee before whispering in sotto voce to Hondo, “Good morning. What did I miss?”

Hondo’s voice is wry as he grins minutely at you. “Nothing. We’re just getting started. Are you ready to have all 24 of them quivering beneath your all-knowing gaze?”

You muffle your snicker by taking another swig of the coffee in your mug. “The new ones are always so scared of AMDO inspections. Even the flight crew isn’t so scared, and they’re the ones in trouble if they’ve messed up. Look at them! They’re quivering in their boots, Hondo! What do they expect me to do? Send ‘em to you for a hundred pushups if I find something that one of the flight crew or my team hasn’t?”

“I mean, it probably wouldn’t hurt their egos to have to do a little corporal punishment.” The older man's voice is suffused with amusement. You share knowing glances with Hondo before grinning cheekily at Maverick as he lifts an eyebrow in your direction. Surprising nobody but probably yourself, you’d gotten on with Maverick like a house on fire. 

Sure enough, the briefing is exactly what you expect. You take an inhuman amount of glee at the fear in the Top Gun cohort’s eyes as they swivel to face you as you stand at attention near Hondo. In addition to the fear, you can see the men amongst the aviators looking at you in disdain. Wait until you tell the assembled company that their planes are grounded for the day while the flight crew goes over the maintenance protocols on each plane in turn. 

You’re not all that worried about the Dagger Squad. They’ve all had at least one AMDO inspection over their career. It’s the cocky flyboys in the cohort that are going to cause you issues, and maybe Rooster Bradshaw. Rooster’s never been outright terrible to you on base, but you never know. He’s got this considering look on his face with his plush lips pursed, and his mustache is outright dripping with disdain as he looks at you. 

“Alright, Aviators! Good morning. I’m the Aviator Maintenance Duty Officer in charge of overseeing the Flight Readiness Assessment we’ll be conducting today.” You introduce yourself in full and get into it, “For some of you, this will be your first Flight Readiness Assessment, and that sadly brings up the one topic that all you speed-fiends will object to.” 

You pause there, taking a sip of your coffee, before continuing. “I’m afraid, aviators, that your planes will be grounded until my team and I have completed the assessment.” 

You can hear the grumbling already and put up a hand to forestall any further complaints. “I know, I know. You’re here at Top Gun to fly. But a Flight Readiness Assessment is how we folks on the ground know that when we launch any of you into the blue yonder that you’ll be coming back home safe and sound. It’s a vital part of flight operations and one you’ll see many times over the course of your careers. It’s nothing to be afraid of. Can I have the planes of Lieutenants Payback and Fanboy, Omaha and Halo, Calypso and Dex, and Blackjack and Athena in Hangar Three and the planes of Lieutenants Phoenix and Bob, Harvard and Yale, Arrow and Cricket, and Renegade and Quicksilver in Hangar 4?”

With that, you dismiss the aviators with a snappy salute and head out into the unforgiving sunshine of a San Diego morning to make your way to Hangar 2, where your team is awaiting their instructions. You can already hear the tramp of boots as the 16 pilots whose names you’d called out make their way to their respective jets to taxi them into the hangars.

Your team is already poring over the material for the inspection in what you've designated your team's home base since your first day on NASNI two months ago. Hangar Two may be the smallest on base, but it's the perfect size for your team. You've got enough space for desks and paperwork as well as enough clear area for one sofa, which while not Navy regulation, Admiral Mitchell prefers napping on, and two fighter jets parked nearly wing to wing. 

There is an F-35 and a shipping container in the hangar right now. The F-35 is because your team is currently reformulating the maintenance protocols for it. The shipping container? That’s a special project given to you by Admiral Chester Cain. You hate old Hammer-face, mainly due to his attitude regarding pilots, but you have to admit he knows what he’s doing with unmanned aerial vehicles. The drone you have in the hangar right now is top secret. Your team isn’t allowed to see anything about it. Before you’d even been able to assume responsibility for the drone, you signed what felt like a million release forms and a non-disclosure agreement. The admiral had actually dropped off an entire mobile lab unit containing the drone, and you were the only person with the key. 

But as much as you’d like to dive right into continuing to formulate the maintenance plan for the drone you have under wraps, you have a team of AMDOs to oversee and sixteen planes waiting for an inspection. So it’s with a less than excited tilt to your shoulders that you lead your team towards Hangars Three and Four. 

Sure enough, there are four planes waiting for you when you walk into Hangar Three first. Their respective aviators are standing at attention below their open cockpits. The scent of jet fuel is thick and cloying in the air. It was completely intentional that you chose the eight F/A-18F jets. The maintenance on the two-seater configuration of the Super Hornet is different from that on the single-seater configuration, in part due to the additional checks that need to be completed on the laser-guided targeting system. So you’ve opted to have the team start on these checks first. 

For much of the morning, everything is smooth. You split your time between each hangar in turn, enjoying the clanking of metal and the screaming of the hydraulic machinery as your team and the flight crew work in tandem going over every inch of the planes in their care at the moment. It's during the transition from the F/A-18F jets to the F/A-18E jets that things seem to start going wrong. At first, it's the small things, like a screwdriver going missing. Then, the problems seem to compound. 

The root of the problems seems to be centered around Hawk's jet in Hangar Three. For some reason, he's screaming outright at both Marissa, the AMDO Lieutenant conducting the inspection on his plane, and the members of the flight crew who are helping out. You reach the scene seconds before Lieutenant Commander Bradshaw, who you'd seen out of the corner of your eye on the other side of the hangar.

"Hawk." Your voice is firm, not that anyone hears you. "What's going on here?" 

He doesn't even pretend to notice you're there and just continues to berate Marissa. You let him pipe on for exactly 60 seconds, timing him on your watch before you reach into your work belt and pull out an air horn. One short blast and the area is finally, blessedly silent.

"That is enough." Your voice cuts through the silence like a whip. "Lieutenant Junior Grade Taylor. If you have a problem with a member of my team, you are to come find me. You DO NOT yell, scream, curse, or berate my AMDOs. Frankly, you do not have the authority to do so." 

It's obvious this young flyboy has no idea who he's dealing with. You have a page in your book for handling each type of disdaining man you've ever met. Your voice is like steel when you continue, "You have two minutes. Tell me what happened. Plain and to the point. No flowery language, no blame games, just the facts."

Hawk doesn't even try to look contrite as he spits out how Marissa has been screwing the panels back in wrong. There's cruel turn to his words, and in truth, you tune them out, choosing to stand under the jet and examine her work yourself. It's perfect, but just as you're about to tell him to shut up and go do one hundred push-ups with Hondo for his impertinence, you hear one final thing that makes your blood boil.

"I mean, I don't even know why the Navy trusts such important tasks to women." The derision in this cocky, arrogant ass's voice has your hackles raising. You've seen the files. At barely 24 years old, Hawk has an impressive record. That's a given in order to be at Top Gun. But you've also seen the many citations and red marks blanketing his record. He's got a history of doing exactly what he is today. "It's not like any of you know how to even use a screwdriver properly."

His once over of you as you drag yourself up to your full height feels like you just walked through an oil-slick. He's attracting an audience, and the more people who gather around, the louder Hawk seems to get. You can see the admirals behind the milling crowd of aviators, and that's when you react. One more burst of the air horn, this one long enough that even crickets would be loud with the silence that ensues.

"Lieutenant Junior Grade Taylor, enough!" Your voice is as menacing as you can make it. "Lieutenant Green's work is immaculate. While you've been ranting and raving like a lunatic over there, I've been reviewing her work. I dare say that your jet is far more aerodynamic than it was before you brought it here for the inspection."

You pause, heaving in a deep breath while trying to collect the frayed ends of your temper. A Tinkerbell implosion would not go over well, not here.

"As far as your other comments, I just have one question for you. I've seen your file. You graduated from Flight School. So that means you know everything there is to know in the NATOPS for the F/A-18. Correct?"

"Damn straight!" You can tell how proud he is from his voice alone. He has no idea what he's in for, and you can already see his reaction play out.

"Lieutenant Green knows the F-18 NATOPS, too." At his confused look, you motion towards Marissa as she stands behind you. "You know, the officer you were just calling stupid because she's a woman? She knows the NATOPS for the F-18, F-22, and F-35 forwards and backward in addition to the E-2 Hawkeye and C-130 Hercules. That's four planes in addition to what you know, correct? You clearly have no idea what an AMDO does. We don't just inspect your planes. We inspect the maintenance protocols for them. There's nobody I'd trust more to inspect a plane I'm responsible for than her."

Your final words are so sharp that they're practically a slap to the face.

"Lieutenant Junior Grade, your conduct is unbecoming when speaking to a superior officer." Hawk's gawking with his mouth open like a fish while you lay into him. "Be assured, I will be speaking at length about your conduct to Admirals Simpson, Bates, and Mitchell. As for your treatment of Lieutenant Green, I'll expect a full written apology across my desk by 10 AM tomorrow. You're to report to Chief Warrant Officer Coleman for 300 push-ups while Lieutenant Green finishes up her work."

You're really enjoying the fish-eyed gaze Hawk is giving you.

"ARE WE CLEAR, LIEUTENANT JUNIOR GRADE?!" Your final bark rings out quite satisfyingly in the silent hangar.

"Y-yes, ma'am." It gives you so much satisfaction to see him walk to Hondo with his tail between his legs. You watch him go with a gimlet gaze before turning to the remaining people arrayed around you.

"Alright, folks, nothing to see here! The US Navy doesn't pay us to engage in scuttlebutt! Back to work unless you want to spend all night here. I'm not all too sure our complement of Admirals would like the thoughts of us in pajamas braiding each other's hair as we gossip about which plane is the best!”

 Your last remark gets chuckles from the crowd, and you're gratified to see them all disperse. Your heart's racing, and you desperately want to put your head into your hands and scream. You can't, though. Now more than ever, all eyes are on you. You give Marissa a few more words of encouragement and make the rounds to all of the other jets in the Hangar before making your way towards Hangar Four. If you stop on the way and hide in the shadowed alley between the two hangars and take fifteen minutes, nobody will notice, right?

Wrong. You’ve barely spent five minutes in the shade before the clearing of a throat has your eyes snapping open. Of course it's him. Who else could it be?

“Bradshaw.” You can’t help how curt your tone is.

“Tinkerbell.” His voice is gentler, softer than you’ve ever heard it. “Was that - um - Was that the first time you’ve had to give a subordinate a dressing down?”

“No.” Your chuckle is wry and mirthless as you stare up at the sliver of cobalt blue sky you can see through the gap between buildings. “I’ve given a lot of those. This is just the first one since my promotion. Each one leaves me feeling terrible after, though. I don’t know what it’s like for men when they have to do something like what I just did, but I know one thing. Taylor’s going to be all over base calling me a bitch, or any other thing which comes to mind. If it were a man telling him the same thing, he’d probably have bitched and moaned for a little bit before ultimately accepting it.”

You can’t hide the tremble in your voice as you breathe in and out raggedly for a few minutes. “H-he’s going to be swanning around for the rest of his time at Top Gun glaring at me, and he and I are going to be the center of all of the gossip and rumors floating around because of it. I’ve heard it all before, you know? She’s fucking him, she’s trying to seduce him, etcetera, etcetera.”

You have no idea why you’re spilling this out to Bradley Bradshaw of all people. If past months have taught you anything, it’s that Bradley Bradshaw and you are always going to be opposites. But that same electric current that was coursing through your veins at the Hard Deck all those months ago is coursing through them again. You can’t help how easily the words spill from your tongue or how he just listens, leaning against the dusty hangar wall for as long as it takes for your words to run out. He doesn't say a word, just hands you a water bottle once you're through and squeezes your shoulder comfortingly before motioning you towards Hangar Four again. He strikes up a light conversation about AMDO inspections and you’re smiling by the time you enter the hangar and continue with your day.

That warmth, that ease? It sticks with you for the rest of the day. You can’t shake your good mood even while you have a powwow with the Admirals about Hawk.  You sign off on twenty-four Flight Readiness Assessments and submit them to Rear Admiral Mitchell’s assistant much later that same day. It’s just hitting half past six when you walk out into the parking lot keys in hand, more than ready to get out of your uniform and into your pajamas with steaming hot takeout in hand. There aren’t many cars in the lot this late in the day. In addition to your own cherry red convertible, there are a few sedans and one canary blue Ford Bronco. Like any other time where you’ve seen a car like the one in your soulmarks, you wait, wondering if the others will link themselves, make home in one person.

Maybe you’ve read too many stories and legends about soulmates and soulmarks. Maybe it’s the romantic in you that dreams of that instant connection. You know that even with a soulmate, it isn’t easy. Your parents are soulmates, but they struggled a lot. They love each other, but it wasn’t enough to make a life. They fought with each other sometimes too. You always knew that while they were fighting it wasn’t because they hated each other. It was just the stress as they were fighting tooth and nail to give your family a better life than they had as they grew up. As an adult, you know that people argue all the time. It’s just a normal part of relationships.

But you can’t help but wish for that instant easy connection. To want to be with your soulmate all the time. To want them to know you better than you know yourself. You’re seated in the front seat of your car, surreptitiously watching the Bronco when you see something you’d never have guessed, but definitely should have expected. 

None other than Bradley Bradshaw walks out of the building on base that houses the gym. He’s wearing baggy shorts and a loose tank top. His curls are loose, falling over his forehead as he sticks something into the back and gets in. Your throat is dry at the play of sun over his golden, glistening skin. To avoid looking like a complete dweeb, you put on your headphones and busy yourself looking at the screen of your phone. Right as he pulls out of his spot, he gives you this half wave and head nod which sends your heart into overtime. A headache sets in the minute you see that car drive away. You’ve seen it in action before. In Rhode Island a lifetime ago, when the world was full of hope and your soulmate was an unknown person you could dream about.

Over the relentless pounding in your head, you’re only thinking about one thing. Curled up in the seat of your car, you’re cataloging your soulmarks one by one, thinking about each of them in turn and how Bradley Bradshaw has inexplicably filled most of them.  He’s definitely got the auburn curls and whiskey-dark eyes,  he’d recognized Tramp by Otis Redding without even trying and now he has a canary blue truck. 60% of your soulmarks are fulfilled by the same person. How is that possible? You’d normally be ecstatic, but the person all your marks are pointing to is not a friend, and he’s decidedly not a romantic interest. Sure he’d listened to you earlier, but that was probably just sympathy. Why else would he be so kind?
