Don’t Call Him Mitchell - Whumptober 2025 Days 6, 11, and 24 by ElementalWinter

Summary
“Hey, Mitchell!”
It was casual. Friendly, even. Ice would’ve ignored it, except he saw the reaction it caused.
Maverick froze. His whole frame locked, shoulders pulled taut like he was waiting for a hit. His hand clenched nearly white around his book. Ice’s sharp eyes caught the faint tremor at his wrist.
Now, what was that about?
Or, Iceman really, really dislikes Maverick. In fact, he would go so far as to say he despises the kid. What Goose could possibly see in the kid is beyond Ice. So why is he so damn intrigued about the kid's reaction to his own name?

Summary
" Bradley had ended up in the custody of the very same parents his mother had run away to escape. He’d quickly come to understand why she’d left, and soon enough, he followed in her very footsteps by packing a bag and taking off in the dead of night before his grandparents could ever know he was gone.
He had no idea where to start, but he’d known he’d belong the moment he set foot on the grounds of the Big Top tent.
“You lost?” A voice pulled Bradley’s attention away from his musings and he turned to find the source. Not far away, at the ticket booth counting up the drawer, stood a man. Older than him with dark, floppy hair. A short but compressed figure, his muscularity visible through his tight-fit jeans and a white t-shirt. He peered at Bradley with a mildly amused expression on his face, still rifling through the cash he held in his hand, counting all the while he watched Bradley cluelessly turn towards him.
“Um…” Bradley crossed his arms self-consciously, “Yes and no?”
The man laughed and it was a beautiful sound. "
-------
aka, Bradley runs away to join the circus. He didn't expect it to turn into a love story.

Summary
Maverick had to wake up recently judging by his untamed hair and dark circles under his eyes. A normal person would think that the man looked like a mess, but Ice found him endearing. Over time the rivalry between them had turned into something more of a playful, friendly banter and everyone seemed to notice the shift of things between them. During this deployment and the few weeks the two had been stationed together they grew fond of each other, Ice would even admit that he enjoyed flying alongside the little prick.
Slider thought that their rivalry was just flirting and in reality Ice had developed a huge crush since he first laid his eyes on Pete Mitchell.-----

" “So that’s everybody?” Mav questioned, his eyes still trained on the sunset over the horizon, the warm light just peeking through the windows as the orange glow of the sun faded past the edge of the world.
“Either stuck with no flights or unable to drive because of the snow,” Ice nodded.
“So it’s just me and you?” Mav asked.
“For however long it takes all of this to melt,” Ice nodded again, “With no power.” "

aka, when the plan for a Christmas getaway weekend with all of the flyboys gets waylaid by mother nature, Ice and Mav know how to make the best of it.

Summary
" He glanced at a calendar on the wall below the register as that same voice yelped out the rest of the lyrics, “Too much love drives a man insane! You broke my will, but what a thrill! Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire!” The calendar was open to July of 1986. And so Bradley Bradshaw realized three things all at the exact same time.
He had somehow time-traveled back to the exact time and date when his father and his godfather were at TOPGUN. Both of his parents were alive once more and stood somewhere in this diner with him. And one of the very few memories he had of his father was underway at that very moment. "
-----------------
aka, Bradley Bradshaw somehow manages to travel back in time for a few hours. He learns a few things about his parents he might've been better off not knowing.

Summary
“Here it is,” Carole says, bringing Mav’s wheelchair to a stop.
Mav’s mouth is dry. He aches for another cup of water. “Carole, tell me something, and don’t lie to me.”
“Anything, Maverick.”
“How bad does he look?”
Carole is quiet for a while. Then she comes around and kneels in front of Mav, taking both of his hands in her own. Her eyes swim with tears. “If I didn’t know any better,” she says, voice breaking, “I’d think he was dead.”
