    Summary

    Ice burst through the door without knocking.

    “Mitchell, if you’re asleep I swear to god-”

    He froze.

    The room was, in a word, ransacked. Dresser drawers, fully removed from the main frame, were emptied onto the floor, their contents seemingly rummaged through then abandoned. Even the wardrobe, home to Mav’s khakis and small collection of formal wear, had been gutted, doors left agape.

    It took Ice a few frantic seconds to spot Mav amongst the chaos.

    -

    Maverick has a dysphoric breakdown. Ice fumbles his way through the aftermath.

    Summary

    " Some might call it suicidal, but Mav saw it as destiny aligning just right so that he could save his death for just the right moment. Die with a purpose, save somebody else, and find himself in his husband’s arms again.

    Then again, Mav hadn’t accounted for Bradley taking after him quite so much, either. Somehow, he survived a mission that felt like a death sentence, one he’d been glad to fulfill, and when he came home, he didn’t know what to do with himself. What was left? He’d taken every step necessary, had made peace with a death that wasn’t fulfilled, and he didn’t know what to do with that. Not now that he had to actually reckon with Ice’s absence.

    The distraction of the mission had kept his mind off of the grief, far more focused on getting the Daggers back alive and successfully bombing out the uranium plant, but with no goal to orient his focus around any longer, it hit him. Full force.

    He stepped through the front door of their house and he just…crumbled. "

     

    ----------

     

    aka, Mav grieving Ice post-TGM. It's not easy.

    Summary

    "The Kazansky-Mitchell Shitshow Extravaganza," Carole had once called his early fumblings with Tom. Maverick thinks history might just be repeating itself as he sits at the Hard Deck watching whatever the fuck is going on between Bradley and Seresin these days, yet another member of the captive audience witnessing their disaster of a mating dance.

    God, Maverick really hoped he and Ice were never this bad.

    Or—
    Unfortunately for everyone else trapped in Miramar during the summer of '86, Pete Mitchell and Tom Kazansky aren't any closer to figuring out what's between them now then they were when they first met five years ago.

    "Mav," Goose hisses into his ear at the officers' club, "please tell me he isn't the guy from the Academy."

    "Fine, I won't tell you that."

    Summary

    Seresin men love with reckless abandon. It’s put every man before him in the ground.

    Jake refuses to be buried.

    He flies like he has nothing left to lose (he doesn’t), a one man army (he is), leaving everyone else in the dust (so they don’t leave him). Admiral Kazansky claps him on the shoulder, says he expects great things from him, and Jake’s smile is feral as the rest of his flight school cohort looks on in disbelief.

    Hangman, they all say, like Jake’s entire personality was a long con, and he ranks first in class.

    Rooster doesn’t look at all.

    (They've got history spanning the better part of a decade and they are absolutely, positively not over it.)

    Summary

    " He existed in that strange in-between for a few weeks. Clothes purged from his father’s old wardrobe, hiding himself away in hopes that nobody would see the dark circles under his wet eyes. Mav and Ice tip-toed around him, trying to offer support but allow him the space to grieve. Until one day, he just snapped.

    He looked in the mirror one morning, and the curls around his face were just too long. His face was too delicate, too feminine, and his hair made it worse. Fury bubbled in his gut and tears welled in his eyes as he locked gazes with his reflection, staring at a stranger in his mirror. He didn’t know his name, but looking in that mirror, he knew the girl staring back was not him. "

    ----------

    aka, a misunderstanding occurs among the Daggers that leads most of them to believe that Mav and Bradley's tension is due to the fact that Bradley is trans. They couldn't be more wrong, and it leads Bradley to reminisce a little on his teen years when he wrestled with his own identity in silence.
