Show Her How It’s Done

Requested: yes

Summary: Slider takes you on a proper first date.

Word count: 0.9k

Note: 2k celebration!

Warnings: none.

Pairings: Ron ‘Slider’ Kerner x fem!reader

Slider heaved out a sigh as he pulled the towel against the back of his neck. Tonight was supposed to be his first date with you, and to say he was nervous would be an understatement. “You’ll be fine,” Ice clapped him on the shoulder. “You’re just thinking about it too much,” The blond collected the rest of his belongings before walking out of the locker room. One last comment was tossed over his shoulder as he left. “Show her how it’s done, Sli.”

Thirty minutes later Slider was standing on your front porch, nervously glancing around the pristine space. A number of flower pots lined the white railing, all growing perfectly despite the California heat. Suddenly, he could hear rustling on the other side of the door. He sucked in a deep breath and straightened up just as you pulled the blue door open.

The breath was knocked out of his lungs as he took in the sight in front of him. You were wearing a flimsy black tank top and a pair of denim jeans. It was a simple outfit but on you, Slider thought that it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.

When he heard your quiet giggle, his eyes immediately snapped up to yours as he began sputtering. The weight of the flowers in his hand suddenly seemed heavier than before. He cleared his throat. “These are for you.” He murmured, passing you the small bouquet of lilacs and white baby’s breath. Your heart swelled at the gesture.

Slider waited patiently as you returned inside to put the flowers in a vase. His hands were clasped in front of him and he was staring at the flag hanging from the corner of your porch when you returned.

There was a nervous smile on his face as you locked up. When you turned back to him, his eyes were immediately drawn to the large smile on your face. He stretched a hand out to you. Your fingers intertwined with his as you began walking away from your house.

When Slider had first asked you out, he had assured you that he would plan the perfect date. Meaning that you had no idea where you were going. “So,” you started, glancing up at the tall RIO. “You gonna tell me where we’re going?” There was a light and airy tone to your voice, almost seeming to pull the weight off of his shoulders in seconds.

He glanced down to find your eyes fixed on him. A small smile overcame his face as he turned his eyes back to the sidewalk in front of him. “You’ll just have to wait and find out.” He teased as the two of you stopped at the cross walk.

After walking for a few minutes, Slider finally stopped the two of you across the road from a small, brightly coloured building. There was a large sign beside the door advertising the best ice cream in Miramar. Slider felt a wave of pride surge through him at the sight of your broad smile.

The two of you crossed the street carefully. Slider held open the door for you once you reached the quaint shop. You thanked him quietly, a pleasured sigh falling from you lips at the feeling of the cool air as you stepped into the shop. There was one couple in front of you, which gave you enough time to decide on what you were having.

A large chalk board hung behind the counter, colourfully displaying all the options that were available. “What are you gonna get?” You questioned as you debated between mint chip and cherry garcia. Slider hummed quietly before he made his choice.

“I think I’ll get pistachio and raspberry.” He decided a few seconds later.

Once the other couple had their ice cream, Slider stepped up, ready to order for the both of you. After a few more seconds of debate, you settled on mint chip.

As the two of you stepped aside to wait for your cones, Slider’s hand settled on your lower back, gently rubbing the skin through the thin fabric of your shirt. You leaned against his side as you listened to the waves crash against the shore only a few meters from the ice cream shop.

A few moments later, the older woman behind the counter called Slider’s name. You followed after him as he grabbed the cones from her. You thanked him quietly as he passed you yours. Almost out of instinct, your hand slipped into Slider’s as the two of you exited the shop. The older woman had a knowing smile on her face as the door closed softly behind you.

Slider led you behind the shop. There was a bench built up against it and looking out over the ocean. He gently pulled you down beside him. A comfortable silence fell over the two of you as you ate your ice cream. The RIO had his hand resting on your knee, thumb gently stroking over your exposed skin.

“Thank you for this.” You spoke quietly, as not to disturb the peace that had settled over the two of you. Your head fell against his shoulder.

The hand that was on your knee moved to wind around your shoulders, pulling you closer into his side. “I’m glad you had fun.” He spoke just as quiet. Any doubts from earlier were quickly forgotten as the two of you watched the sun sparkle off of the deep blue water.

A/n: Thank you all for reading! I enjoyed writing this one so much. Requests are open.

Please take a look at my humble attempt at Top Gun fanart. It's been well over a year since my last attempt to draw something but these sleepy boys made me try it again. Please be gentle with me.

Based on this post of mine

[elancie]

Rooster: Ice, how did you and Mav get together?

Ice: Oh you know, it was this very romantic night in Chicago…

Slider: They crashed Grandma Kazansky’s car and were forced to take care of her garden. Turns out at some point they got so fed up with each other, they just started kissing.

Rooster: How do you know that-

Mav: He was the one driving.

Headcanons for the Mitchell-Bradshaw kids (+ friends & family) because I can | Top Gun AU ✈️

Summary: What happens when you live with 4 little ducklings? Unforgettable memories!

Pairing: Bradley Bradshaw & Jenny Mitchell

Characters included/mentioned: Dane Bradshaw, Austin Mitchell, Maverick, Slider, Iceman, Carole and etc

Note: Fluffy/ Top Gun Headcanon fic

~~

1) Bradley and Austin used to volunteer at an Animal Shelter, full of puppies and full grown dogs if all breeds. One day, Slider’s kids wanted to adopt another dog but couldn’t since they already had 4 already so in result, they called Iceman to help them out and so in result he adopted the doggie.

But there was a catch, the Yorkie made so much more barking than expected and had so much darling energy, so Iceman had no choice but to call him—Maverick!! Let’s just say the real Maverick wasn’t the happiest person after hearing that and the kids laughed so loudly at his reaction

2) Speaking of dogs, Austin Mitchell may or may not have brought home in an panic a week later. Jenny was sending text messages on her laptop when he rushed in yelling, “Don’t tell Dad!”

She was confused and looked up, “What did you do?”

“I want you to know that I love you VERY much and you’re always welcome in my room for the bigger closest room.”

“Aussy, what happened? Did you break his motorcycle again?”

“No and for the 10th time that was Dane!”

He hoped the door for a puppy to walk in as his sister’s jaw dropped to the floor, hugging the fur ball to tackle her. He laughed at the moment and whistles as two more dogs came in grinning brightly.

“Sooo? What do we think?” He asked with a matching grin as the dogs, carrying the puppy.

“We ain’t NEVER telling Dad!” She repiled with a little giggle falling in love with the dogs.

—

3) As a kid, Dane really in awe of Ice's ability to flip pens like it was nothing and wants to be his student to learn the trick, begging for him to teach him one day after school. His mom brought him a small pack of pens and pencils to practice with for flipping tricks, eventually he gets the hang of it where he showcasing his tricks in class.

He thanked his Uncle Ice later on for showing him the trick, calling him cooler than Maverick jokingly and laughed running off to show his friends his new tricks

4) Speaking of Dane, is maths kid in school. History was never his strong suit but surprisingly, numbers came much more naturally to him. It resulted in the type of career he would have in the future.

His brother and siblings knew this fact very well, being able to be crafty where he can calculate prices of analysis for planes. As well as when needed he can calculate, like the the tax and measurement when it comes to paying for a restaurant bill.

It would surprise his mother as she would ask, “Not bad, sweetie. How did you do that so fast?”

In result he would hold up the pen and napkin he used to do the math then reply, “I counted.”

—

5) When it comes to certain things, Jenny is terrible at keeping secrets and wants to gossip, so she can be a little nosy at times (she gets better at it with age). Ice and her dad like to say, she got from their Aunt Carole, since Sunset was most likely the one to be hush hush about certain subjects.

When she was 5, and Bradley was 7, she knew he had a silly little crush on the babysitter cause she was so nice. So she told her auntie Carole who stayed gushing with her all about it, teasing her son about it

When she was 10, she heard all about uncle Slider becoming Commander after watching the adults talk about it and went running to her daddy to spill the news giggling with excitement. It was supposed to be a secret for a few short days but she couldn’t help herself.

When she was 16, she found out that Dane and Austin had a crush on the same girl or so she thought. She squeals so loudly, knowing that she would have to be quiet about it or else. Bradley even gave her an odd look.

But Jenny had other plans as she sneaked up on her brother and asked, “Sooo who’s the girl?”

“What girl? There is no girl!” Austin exclaimed playing video games on the computer.

“Oh my god it’s the senior!”

“How did y-no! I am not into a senior.”

“But I saw you talking about some girl name ‘Avery’…”

That’s when her brother snorted, “No, Avery Thompson is the senior leader of the drama club. I’m into Avery Rodriguez, he’s on the basketball team.”

Her eyes widen and gasps, “HIM?! Damn, you got good taste!”

—

6) Jenny had a small crush on Bradley when they were kids, jokingly saying ‘You are my boyfriend.’ when she was 7 but let it go a while later. Especially since fictional boys existed on Tv duh! However, Bradley thought girls had cooties and said, ‘Gross!’

As early high school rolled around, Jenny was watching Disney Channel movies and texting her friends as she watched the boys play guitar and drums in the center of the garage. Austin, Dane and Bradley were jamming out in their band laughing and singing covers.

Tracy and Rachel, Jenny’s friends, walked into the garage jamming out to the songs as she greeted her with a hug. They were chatting and gossiping about the latest movies, along with newest episodes of Gossip Girl.

“Can you believe Blair said that to Serena?! That was uncalled for!” Tracy exclaimed as they sat on the bench, sipping water bottles.

“I know right?! But Serena had a point though.” Jenny yelled, chuckling.

“Blair was better.” Rachel added for a debating measure, “But I love Serena too.”

Bradley was tuning his guitar but paused to look at the girls with a loopy smile, stuck in a mini trance.

That’s when Austin threw an empty water bottle at his head and yelled, “Dude! Stop staring that’s my sister.”

Dane laughed at his brother’s face, waving at Tracy, Rachel and Jenny who giggled. Bradley just glared at Austin as he stuck out his tongue muttering a few things.

I love to think about Maverick and Iceman in the same room on an aircraft carrier, trying to live the most they can togheter before Ice gets promoted and gets grounded. They’re holding each other while talking about everything and slowly falling asleep.

(Slider is done with their shit but when is he not?)

[loonykatz]

Back when I was writing the fan fic, I doodled some of the scenes or concepts to grasp my ideas more firmly. In this one I drew Inez and Slider in their winter gear for Penguia, since Inez is accompanying Slider as he's getting important machine parts on random sites.

Slider would actively be a dick to Inez, starting when they first met up again and up until a certain point in the Penguia trip. Insinuating she's slowing him down, taking jabs at her height to "motivate"(anger) her, and just being kinda hostile in general. He had reasons for pushing others away, but it was starting to stress Inez out (though she never stopped trying to break him out of his shell), leading to the main incident of that part of their journey.

After Slider refuses to help find the cure for the Cybird flu to save Penguin Village (because of an incoming snow storm), Inez says she's going to get it. The two get into an argument and Inez snaps back, revealing how she views herself and that she'd feel like a burden and a waste if she can't save her friends. She storms off in tears while Slider has a flashback from when his father was "killed". Slider feels like shit for treating Inez so poorly after everything, and decides he's going to help.

While Fluff and Inez found the cure, they got chased by one of Hacker's monsters, and when Inez was about to take the killing shot, all the stress built up from previous events caught up to her and she had a panic attack. Inez and Fluff are functionally helpless until Slider saves them, and comforts Inez enough to snap her out of it.

After they get back to Fluff's place to take shelter, Slider gives Inez a heartfelt and sincere apology, and tells her he relates to how she feels. They become close friends from the ordeal, and Slider realizes he has feelings for her in later chapters.

That part, along with the part Hacker ambushes those two are the parts I remember the most fondly.

Flufftober 2024 - Day 6: Cuddles

The first time Ice really thinks everything will be okay again is on the transport plane back to Miramar after the Layton mission. He's won the Top Gun trophy. Maverick is flying again. He's friends with him now, or so it seems. Ice doesn't know exactly but it feels like it. Wingmen.

Maverick, Mav is sitting on his right side, Slider on his left, both of them napping, both of them slightly twisted towards him, as far as that's possible with the seat belts, their knees bumping against his each time there's a slight rumble. Their heads are dangerously close to falling down on each of Ice's shoulders, too. He wouldn't mind though, not at all. 

Across from him, Hollywood is grinning at him. He's in a similar position, Wolfman sleeping on his shoulder. They are an open secret. Nobody talks about them. History will simply say they were close friends but yet, here they are, definitely more than friends. It'd be a lie to say Ice hasn't thought about both Slider and Mav in a similar way. Ice smiles back at Wood. 

Almost demonstratively, Wood wraps his arm around Wolfman, then points with his eyes first at Slider, then at Mav, then back at Ice. 

Ice understands and wants to put his arms around both of them, hold them close, cuddle them. And actually why not? If Wood and Wolf can do it, why not them, too? Ice shuffles a bit and manages to wriggle each of his arms around their backs, hands resting on their hips. Wood nods, smiling knowingly. Then he rests his head on Wolf’s and closes his eyes. 

Simultaneously, Mav's arm wraps around Ice's belly and his head drops against his arm. As if he'd only waited for it, Slider's arm follows suit, resting on top of Mav's, while his head falls on Ice's shoulder. A warm tingly feeling arises in Ice's belly. 

Cargo plane seats are uncomfortable as hell but here and now, being cuddled by these two menaces of men, he wouldn't change it for anything in the world.

A day in the life of Ron Kerner:

Slider: Ice did you take out the trash?

Ice: Mav did it.

Slider: Why would Mav take out the trash?

Ice: Because it was full genius.

Slider: Well Tom, I don’t remember Mav living here? Why would he take out the trash?

Maverick entering the house while obviously wearing Iceman’s clothes, a key held in his hand.

Mav: Morning Boys, had a good night?

Slider: You know what, I’m gonna move out.

Slider and Goose slow dancing in a laundromat in the middle of the night while waiting for their uniform to be ready.

(While Slider is wearing one of Goose's hawaiian shirts and Goose one of Slider's one shirts because they share one wardrobe, and so the stuff they put in their bags is more than mixed by now.)

[lazuliquetzal]

thanks @bobafett for the tag i love tag games SO much

How many works do you have on AO3? 38! Huh! I don't know what I expected? (If you wanna be exact, it's actually 41 because I have 3 joke fics posted anonymously.)

What’s your total AO3 word count? 653,468

What fandoms do you write for? Whatever I'm into at the moment? Right now it's God of War. Earlier it was Linked Universe. Before that it was Daiya no Ace. But I'm not particularly loyal, it's literally just whatever idea that manages to stick.

What are your top 5 fics by kudos? Reflection -- a classic AA Batteries -- my beloved Dawn of the Fourth -- *evil cackling* ain't no rest for the wicked -- oh my god do people still click on this Denial and Deterioration -- I SWEAR I'M STILL WORKING ON IT I ACTUALLY ADDED TO THE DOC LIKE 3 DAYS AGO

Do you respond to comments? I try to! I try to catch every comment, but if a fic is on the older side and the comment isn't super long, I sometimes don't reply. Not because I don't like the comment (i love all comments i love you all) but because if a fic is not fresh in my brain I don't have much to say

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? DO NOT READ IT, but it's the shadows we cast. I was fifteen. I'm not linking it on here. It's still on my AO3 because I'm not a coward, but I'm also not very brave, so like, don't read my high school fic, you've been warned.

What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Probably Candid? That one is SUPER fluffy, which is not normally my style, but you know, sometimes you just gotta flex your fluff muscles,

Do you get hate on fics? Eh, not really. I've gotten a few negative comments, but mostly from FFN, and I honestly don't even count those lol.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind? No. I genuinely wouldn't even know where to begin.

Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? Nah, crossovers aren't my thing.

Have you ever had a fic stolen? I have seen a fic that was very blatantly referencing one of mine, but I don't really consider that stealing.

Have you ever had a fic translated? Nope!

Have you ever co-written a fic before? Does the absolutely insane crack fic written on the tail end of a 29-hour voice call count?

What’s your all time favorite ship? Hmm. I read a lot of Merthur, but that's mostly because the Merlin fandom tends to be really good, and therefore there's a lot of good Merthur (although I do like Merthur a lot, super Shakespearean, only valid soulmate pairing I've ever seen).

What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? If I abandon a fic, I'm going to make an announcement. If I haven't officially abandoned it, it's still fair game. That said, Replication is like, on the lowest of low priorities.

What are your writing strengths? It comes with absorbing plot structure into your personality, but yeah, I'm a kick ass plotter. Also comedy. That also comes with the plot structure.

What are your writing weaknesses? Atmosphere/description. Worldbuilding. Also to a lesser extent, character voice -- I feel like I eventually default to everyone just sounding like me

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? Depends on context, but it's always through the lens of "how does this effect the experience for the reader?"

First fandom you wrote for? I wrote a Star Wars fanfic when I was like, 9. First fanfiction on PURPOSE was for PJO.

Favorite fic you’ve written? I think the best thing I've written so far is DotF, but my favorite is probably The Disappearance of Narumiya Mei. WHICH I'M ALSO STILL WORKING ON, life just got REALLY WEIRD and I had to take a step back from it RIP

Tagging @tavina-writes, @ellie-tarts, @lieutenantbiscute, @aoryuucchi, @bytebun, @mimbotomy (no pressure if you don't want to!) and of course anyone who feels like doing this

Arms Wide Open, Catch Me If I Fall Masterlist:

Robert ‘Bob’ Floyd x Amanda ‘Birdie’ Hallett

Warnings: angst & fluff

Before the urgent mission and being sent back to Top Gun, Bob had a girlfriend. The key word being ‘had.’ When he initially received the orders back, he thought of two outcomes; one he’d get orders afterwards to go to another base & 2 he’d die during. He couldn’t put that on her, his Bird. So, before the long distance relationship could happen, he ended it. He didn’t want her to have to morn him if he did die while flying this mission, so he decided to break her heart. He didn’t tell her why, she understood the risks of his job, she too was a pilot. But, after the mission was successful, he turned from his happy go lucky self the others began to love, to a gloomy, depressed state. The other aviators pressed him for weeks before he finally gave in and told them about his ‘Birdie’ and how he made a mistake. Hearing a little bit of Bob’s story, they started to do anything and everything to try and get orders for this ‘Birdie’ to San Diego. Will their meddling help mend these lovebirds?

Die Hard

Rating: G

Relationship: Slider/Goose

CW/TW: None

Summary: Goose is a huge film nerd and discovers Slider has never seen Die Hard.

~~~

"Man, Slider, what you mean, you haven't seen it?" Goose asks and Slider shrugs. He takes a swig from his beer then replies, "Just never got to it, I guess."

So they meet up to watch the movie. They somehow manage to fit on Goose’s couch together, pressed side to side, so they're touching from shoulder to thigh.

They start off very stiff and tensed but over time Slider relaxes. Starts laughing and munches some of the snacks they put on the small coffee table while he comments on the movie with his hand outstretched, gesturing at something on the screen.

Goose watches him with a smile playing around his mouth.

When the movie ends Slider leans back and grins, "That was some good shit, Bradshaw. Gotta give you that."

They're so close now, with the way Slider is turned towards Goose and it makes Goose feel a little dizzy.

Slider's smile is blinding.

"Maybe I'll be a movie star someday," he continues and stretches his arms over his head, then drapes them over the back rest of the couch. "You know, do some action stuff and shit. Bet the girls would love me," he winks.

Goose laughs softly. He scoots a little closer, "They sure would."

"Yeah ?"

"Yeah," he breathes and touches Slider's arm where it's splayed over the couch, "You're hot. Girls like that."

Slider cocks his eyebrows, "You think I'm hot?"

Goose shakes his head, laughing, "I didn't say that."

Slider tilts his head. He watches goose for a moment then a lazy grin spreads over his face, "I'm pretty sure you did, Bradshaw."

He moves his hand, runs it up Goose’s arm and rests it on his neck, where he starts drawing slow circles behind Goose’s ear.

"Maybe I did. Who cares?" Goose says easily. He let's himself be pulled closer to Slider. Their lips brush.

"I don't know," Slider says, his voice quiet, "Mabye I do."

They both huff out a fond breath before their lips meet in a soft kiss.
