Summary
AU where Mav and Bradley are kidnapped to be used as hostages against newly appointed COMPACFLT.
Or Mav and Bradley talk earlier and way longer, because there is nothing else to do when you are confined together in a small room against your will.
This whole thing is mostly Mav and Bradley talking, hugging, fighting and crying.
(We also have some suffering from other, non-kidnapped people.)

Summary
Sarah grabbed Pete’s other hand, and gave it a tight squeeze. “Three nights ago, UCLA Medical Center called Ron…”
How was that a good thing? Getting a call from the hospital at any time of day had never bode well for Pete.
"They said that someone was in the ER who had him listed as an emergency contact.”
“Okay?” He asked, still not following.
“Pete,” Tom said and he turned his attention back towards his partner. “It was Bradley.”

It's been four years since any of them had seen or heard from Bradley when Slider gets a call in the middle of the night with the news that he's back and more.

Summary
"Shit," Maverick curses, righting them with no small amount of struggle, fighting the failing jet. "Rooster, listen to me. We're going to land," he says, turning sharply back toward the shore. He scans the landscape outside of the cockpit, looking for somewhere, anywhere, clear enough for them to set down.
"What?!" Rooster shouts.
"No other choice," Maverick says, spotting a clearing in the trees. It's not ideal, but it'll have to do. He's getting more and more warning lights flashing at him, and they're running on borrowed time. "It's going to be rough," he warns. Even if they had a runway that was paved and not snow-covered dirt, they're missing a landing gear.
This is going to hurt.
--
Or, Maverick and Rooster don't make it back to the carrier in that F-14. Cue a Goofy Movie-esque road trip, only the estranged father-son pair have to figure out how to make it home from enemy soil without aid, backup, or documentation.
Oh, and everyone back home thinks they're dead.

Summary
Maverick doesn't get thrown out of the Hard Deck that first night, instead getting drawn into a game of pool with none other than Hangman. How that led to reconciling with Bradley, Maverick still has no idea.
