thinkin about ice who is inherently intrigued by mav. someone who learned discipline in order to survive. was taught to lock everythin down to follow every order to think everythin through. pick it apart n then pick it over again. who meets maverick who is. none of those things. who wears every passin emotion on his face. who is reckless n impulsive n never seems to listen to a damn thing anyone has to tell him. who never thinks. just does. who is dangerous maybe. but god. does he seem fun.

[nevermindirah]

I thought the movie said it pretty damn clearly with "depends on the century." all of them have fought for causes they believed were good, only to later gain perspective and realize they'd been the bad guys. there's a lot of structural stuff in Hollywood that makes it difficult to include full-throated condemnation of the US military in movies but Gina really did make it clear that Nile's service isn't the uncomplicated good that a lesser movie would have framed it as by default.

but this shit isn't really about US militarism. so many of us who love Nile have thought at length about this character flaw of hers and explored it in fic and art. for way too many people though it's not a point of entry to think about Nile more deeply, it's about finding progressive-sounding excuses to sideline the Black lead character.

HI NILE 🥰

[maverick-wingman]

Really want to cry right now. Please recommend your favorite tog gun /top gun maverick angsty fics.

[bewires]

Fic 20 questions

tagged by @gallifreyburning! Thank you!

1. how many works do you have on Ao3?

130

2. what's your total Ao3 word count?

1,107,429 which is a startling amount. A lot (a lot) from the lockdown years.

3. what fandoms do you write for?

The old guard, top gun maverick, stranger things, star trek...ao3 will tell you i have also written a lot for supernatural, but that was a decade ago

4. what are your top five fics by kudos?

chrysalis

incurable

say the word (& I'll be your rennaissance man)

offer no absolutes

(don't) blame it on the moonlight

5. do you respond to comments?

I really really try to but it gives me a kind of social anxiety where I feel like a dick for saying the same thing over and sometimes that stops me from doing it until I feel like it's been way too long and I can't possibly answer now. I appreciate every single comment so so so much though!

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I don't really do angsty endings. I vaguely recall writing some angstier supernatural stuff back on livejournal? Or I guess I have some joe/nicky/booker stuff in TOG that ends on an angsty note.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Probably say the word (and I'll be your rennaissance man) which is just high-octane fluff all the way through. but pretty much all my fic ends happy.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Yeah but basically entirely related to all the dumb top!joe discourse stuff. So only people who wanted to send me or others threats for...idk writing about joe topping and bottoming versus only topping. hard to take seriously.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Yes!

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I think I have crossed over every major teen fandom of mine with TOG, so I did a star trek, a torchwood and an SPN one. Although I'm not sure when it stops counting as crossover and starts counting as fusion.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not as far as I know, but i could be wrong

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yeah once or twice

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Yes, a few with @dreamtiwasanarchitect! Great experience

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

I can't answer this lol. Changes with the hyperfixations

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

The choose your own adventure Joe x Nicky one, i wish i had the time and energy for it

16. What are your writing strengths?

I would say dialogue. And maybe, if this makes sense, conveying what a character is thinking and feeling out of the perspective of another character who is nominally oblivious to it

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Describing scenery/physical characteristics/logistics of where what is. I am not a visual thinker

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

Depends on the context and whether it's understandable for the audience

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Tamora Pierce's Tortall books. fortunately, these fics are probably no longer findable on the internet.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

In terms of ambition, right where you left me which I co-wrote with @dreamtiwasanarchitect. The process of outlining and writing that one kickstarted my ambition to write my own actual book (a thing that exists out in the world now). In terms of style, I'm really proud of how (don't) blame it on the moonlight came out in that you really don't need Nicky's perspective because it's so obvious.

Tagging @regina-del-cielo @nicolos and anyone else who wants to!

summary | jake takes you to texas where you learn the infamous law

pairing | jake "hangman" seresin x fem!reader

warning | fluff, slight angst, mentions of sex, jealous!jake, possessive!jake

word count | 1.2k

The bar was crowded when the two of you walked in. Jake had brought you home to Texas during his two week brevent after the mission. 

You constantly teased Jake while at the Hard Deck, saying that he needed to take you line dancing whenever the two of you went back to Texas. 

Coming to Texas, Jake took you out and dressed you in a perfect outfit for you, buying you your first pair of cowboy boots. At his family ranch, his sisters taught a few popular dances that were played down at the bar. 

It was Friday night, Jake’s sister was helping you out with a few final touches to your outfit and makeup before they heard someone clear their throat.

You gulped, seeing his biceps practically bulging out of his shirt that had to be a few sizes too small. His sisters left the bathroom all giggling to each other seeing how you looked at Jake. 

“You ready darlin’?” God you couldn’t even answer, the little Texas accent he had coming out more than usual. 

“You ready darlin’?” God you couldn’t even answer, the little Texas accent he had coming out more than usual. 

Guiding you down the house, the rest of his family were all in the living room, his mother cooing at the two of you together. Getting in the car and driving towards the bar, Jake’s hand rested on your thigh. 

Turning into a gravel lot, the bar kept with a saloon vibe. Coming to the other side of the truck, opening the door for you, Jake gave you his hand, helping down and out. It was barely 10pm, and you could see all the cars in the driveway, expecting the bar to be crowded.

“C’mon now.” You were practically frozen in your spot, making Jake basically drag you inside. The music was loud, everyone on the floor dancing, and at the bars. Your eyes jumped to almost every single object in the room, getting a feel for the night.

Meeting some of his friends, you noticed how each of the girls had been wearing cowboy boots, and with the look of their boyfriends hat hair, it wasn’t their hat that was on their head. 

You seemed to notice how many women had hats on their heads.

Not wanting to ask Jake and seem stupid, you turned to one of the girlfriends of Jake’s friends. 

“Why do all the girls wear hats?” You asked. You along with two other girls sat in a booth on the side of the bar. 

The two of you girls side eyed each other before turning back to you. 

“It kind of means that if you’re wearing a man’s cowboy hat, you’re taken, you’re with him.” The first girl, Ava explained. 

“If she’s wearing the hat, she’s riding the stallion.” The other, Izzy snorted. 

You furrowed your brows and didn't really get her joke. Ava seemed to notice your perplexed look before speaking again.

“Wearing a hat, ends up in your man's lap. Save a horse, ride a cowboy.” She smirked.

Finally understanding, you felt a little disheartened. You and Jake had been together for almost 3 years now, and you thought it was serious. 

“Hey.” Izzy grabbed your hand, “Don’t think too much about it, I can see that Jake clearly loves you, a hat isn’t going to change that.”

Taking your mind off the situation, Izzy and Ava brought you out to dance. You quickly noticed how many people were looking at the three of you, more looking at you. Remembering that Izzy and Ava had their boyfriends’ hats on, you were in the eyes of everyone else, single. 

Across the bar, Jake was gripping onto his beer tight, his eyes slightly twitching when he saw another man come up to dance with you. 

“You good there Seresin.” Izzy’s boyfriend snorted, knowing what was exactly going on. Jake was never one to be jealous, he put his trust in you, and knew that you wouldn’t do anything to mess with that but seeing that man dancing with you, though you kept your distance from him, he couldn’t keep the green monster inside him calm. 

Taking a break after your fourth dance, the three of you made your way towards the bar. Leaning against the countertop, your forearms rested on the edge, taking in deep breaths, when you felt someone brush up against you. He was quite the opposite of Jake, a few inches shorter, his skin more tan, his hair brunette. 

Jake always had a cocky smirk whenever he flirted with you but the guy next to you had a genuine smile. 

“Oh I’m sorry.” You already started to deny him.

“I know, you’re with Seresin.” You stared at him in shock, not even knowing the man. “Don’t worry, I’ve known Jake for ages. Just stepping on his toes so he can finally make his move.”

Laughing slightly, you turned to see Jake looking green. Though the two of you were already together, you needed that hat. 

“He’s coming.” You noticed turning back to the guy, “Pretend like I said something funny?”

Jake heard your laugh as he walked up to the two of you, seeing you wrap your hand around the guy’s hand, throwing your head back. 

“Yoder.” Jake saw who had come up to you, “You’re with my girl.”

You never understood why you thought Jake looked even better when he was possessive, maybe he was the way his jawline was more prominent when he clenched it or maybe he flexed his muscles so they could look even bigger. 

“He just offered me a drink, it’s fine Jake.” You were adding flame to the fire. 

Feeling a grip on your shoulder, Jake turned your shoulders, wrapping an arm around your waist, pulling you away from him. 

“What was that?” You were both outside now, Jake was practically fuming and you tried so hard not to laugh. 

“What?” You feigned innocence, “He was just being nice.”

“He should have known better.” He scoffed, rolling his eyes, not wanting to be mad at you.

“Well he didn’t know we were together?” You smirked. 

“What- what do you-oh.” Jake was confused, he had known Yoder for years, and spoke about you constantly and showed him pictures. The gears in his head finally clicked, seeing the slight glimmer in your eyes. 

“All that for a hat?” He chuckled.

“Yes!” You slightly whined, “Jakie, we’ve been together forever, I wanna wear your hat.”

He couldn’t help but laugh, wrapping his arms around you, bringing you into a hug. Pulling away, he lifted the hat off his head, putting it on yours. 

Slightly adjusting it, you took a couple steps back presenting yourself. 

“What do you think?”

“I think my night is gonna end well.” He smirked, wrapping arms around your waist, slowly lowering his hands down to the swell of your ass. “Gonna ride your cowboy tonight?”

Slipping away from his grasp, you started to make your way back to the bar, before turning your head over your shoulder, giving him a flirty smile.

“I’m gonna ride an aviator.”

Blackwood - Prologue

Bradley ‘Rooster’ Bradshaw x fem!Blackwood!reader

Summary:  (Y/N) ‘Finch’ Blackwood had grown up her whole life without knowing the true identity of her father. She had always thought herself to be content without knowing who he was, but when her work crosses paths with his own, they both face challenges in trying to figure themselves out. Meanwhile, she doesn’t know that her childhood best friend has made his own way through the Navy, and will be joining them on their adventures. 

Word Count: 869

Warnings: mentions of pregnancy

A/N: I hope y’all enjoy this! Please let me know what you think, and as always, happy reading! 

Masterlist

Charlotte Blackwood knew a lot about herself when she sat on the plane leaving Miramar, California in 1986. She knew that she was on a road that would lead her to the success she desired. She knew that she was leaving behind a man who was so wild, she thought she could tame him. She also knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that the baby growing inside of her was his. She hadn’t known for a very long time before stepping onto the plane, maybe several days. She hadn’t spoken to Maverick in weeks at that point, not since he quit being an instructor at Top Gun and had taken assignment elsewhere. She could only hope that the decision she was making would be the best for her and her unborn child.

She sat now in her garden, in 2022, reflecting on the days when she thought herself to be indestructible. Her daughter, (Y/N) ‘Finch’ Blackwood, sat across from her, a bright smile painted across her features. She had just told her mom that she was going back to Top Gun for a top-secret mission, one even she did not know the details of.  

“Mom, are you even listening to me?” She asked her, the aviator sunglasses sitting at the collar of her sundress.

Jolting from her daydream, Charlotte looked to her only child, a gentle smile adorning her lips. “Of course, dear. You know I just worry about you is all.” She stated simply, reaching to grasp her daughter’s hand, her thumb rubbing soft circles into her skin.

“Mom, I’ve been a fighter pilot and instructor for years now. You know you have nothing to worry about. I’ve got Phoenix going with me, you know how unstoppable we are when we’re together.” She assured her, a chuckle escaping her throat.

“I know, dear. Be safe and always double check your equipment.” Charlotte had always been careful to remind (Y/N) of this, especially after learning Nick Bradshaw died when his head hit the canopy of the jet all those years ago.

“I will mom. I love you lots, I’ll call you when I land in Cali.” (Y/N) said, standing to lean over the table, placing pecks on her mother’s cheeks.

Charlotte squeezed her hand as she watched her place the aviators on her face, looking nearly identical to her father all those years ago. As she watched her leave, she was taken back to 1986, and the memories that seemed to reel like a movie in her head.

~~

Growing up, (Y/N) had been told stories about her father from her mother, about his recklessness but also his bravery and his personality. Her mom only had one photo of him in the house, but she kept it in a discrete place where neither she nor her stepfather knew its location. She had seen it one time when they were moving, yet again. She was about fifteen at the time and could immediately see their resemblance. Her sleek hair and fiery eyes matched his own, along with her nose. Her other facial features though mimicked her mother, and she could consider herself a relative mixture of them both. She wanted to engrain the picture into her mind, but before the thought could cross her mind, she had heard her mom yelling for her from downstairs.

Many of her fondest memories also included when her mom’s friend, Carole, would come up from Virginia Beach with her son Bradley. She felt that the two of them were very similar, especially since neither of them had dads. She loved sharing her childhood and her pre-teen years with him, and they even had piano lessons together. Eventually though, her mom had decided to move states to marry her stepfather. She remembers Carole and Bradley coming up to their townhouse in Washington D.C. to help move, and the both of them trying to play the piano at the same time, all while singing.

“You should stop hogging the bench, Bradley!” She had shouted, her cheeks huffing out, the skin turning red slightly.

“Well why don’t you stop crowing like a bird!” He had retorted back, sticking his tongue out.

“At least I don’t sound like a rooster.” Her comeback was enough to have the in a fit of laughter, just before their moms had urged them to quit messing around and instead move the piano onto the back of Carole’s pickup.

She thought about him often, always wondering where he was now that they were all grown up.  She had gone off to the Naval Academy straight out of high school and hadn’t regretted the decision. She, like many of her colleagues, had moved through the ranks. She currently found herself as a lieutenant commander, one of the youngest the navy had ever seen. She was extremely proud of her position, but also that she had for the most part, done it on her own. Her mom and stepdad had given her a few nudges here and there, but she knew they were proud of her too, and loved and appreciated them for it all the same.

Chapter 1

[inkdrinkerworld]

oscillating between lotr trilogy, hobbit trilogy and their respective audiobooks, as well as practical magic, tog gun maverick and howl's moving castle is really telling of my mental state

[nicohischier]

question.

if i want to watch tog gun maverick do i have to watch the original top gun?

[pr0scenio]

Top Gun: Maverick

La scena che ho scelto per raccontare il nuovo Tog Gun non è certamente casuale. Che cos'è questo film se non un enorme fanservice?

Fanservice per i nostalgici degli anni 80, fanservice per la mascolinità tossica, fanservice per chi proprio non ne ha abbastanza di Tom Cruise! Eppure, nonostante tutto questo, oltre il superfluo c'è anche un solido film. Se c'è una cosa che proprio non riesce ad entusiasmarmi, sono i sequel. Soprattutto se si tratta di un film che esce a distanza di 36 anni dal precedente. Puzza di stantio.

Non starò qua ad elencare somiglianze e citazioni tra il primo ed il secondo, mi limito a dire che probabilmente sarebbe più corretto parlare di remake e non di sequel. In fondo i collegamenti al passato sono così forzati e puramente in nome del fanservice che è meglio concentrarsi sugli aspetti innovativi. Ossia, come Top Gun: Maverick ha saputo reinventare il genere che aveva già inventato trenta e passa anni fa. Mi riferisco sia alle tecniche di ripresa innovative che al rapporto tra vecchie e nuove reclute inserite all'interno di uno scenario bellico asettico e totalmente anonimo eppure sempre presente, minaccioso come uno spaventapasseri per dei poveri jet supersonici di ultima generazione.

In sintesi, la scienza dei sequel hollywoodiani è progredita parecchio ed è riuscita nella non semplice impresa di realizzare un film fatto e finito a partire da una vecchie pellicola del 1986
