Summary
Bradley Bradshaw never understood Maverick’s innate need to keep tabs on himself and the Daggers, worrying after them like a typical Mother-Hen.
But when Bradley is roped into mentoring one of the youngest recruits to touch-down on Topgun soil- he too becomes closely acquainted with the term "Helicopter parent".With this sudden- and quite frankly, unwanted- influx of parental responsibility, Rooster soon finds himself in way over his head.
Duck, cover and
Brace for impact. -

Summary
"Go on, Crosshair. Give me your best shot" he taunts, Omega mouthing his name like a prayer as the Clone’s arm crushes down on her windpipe and chokes her of her words, "but we both know your aim is banther-shit"
Crosshair breathes once out his nose- his reply hissing back through the wind,
"Not when it counts"
—
In which the operator clone seen during the siege of Pabu isn't exactly who we think they are.
But something much, MUCH worse.
(Or: My take on THAT scene of Pabu in the trailer)
(Warning: this writer is coming down with the Crossdad influenza, it's highly contagious and if you're not careful you could catch it too)

Summary
Hunter caught her, her bony knees digging into his stomach, momentarily winding him. He felt Omega's arms wrap around his shoulders and chuckled as he pushed her wet bangs out from over her eyes. She grinned toothily up at him, still laughing.
"Having fun?" He asked, just to be sure.
"The best" she replied.
(Or: Our five soldier-boys and their adorable blonde kid head down to Pabu's shore for a well-deserved beach day)

Summary
Some things have a funny way of repeating themselves.
Maverick never asked anything of Hangman after the night he helped him home from the bar- only that he learn from his good deed, and “Pay it forward” whenever the opportunity arose.
Turns out, his moment came sooner than expected.

Two very different souls cross paths due to an awful set of circumstances. A young runaway braving the streets alone, and a deserter who's only goal is to survive to see the next day.

Summary
When Rooster pushes himself too hard and makes himself very ill, Maverick has to step in and take care of him, just like he had done when Rooster was a kid. Rooster may be reluctant to the idea, but Maverick is stubborn and knows just what to do to make this illness easier on the young man that he regards as his son.
