Summary
“Hope you didn’t sneak out of medical,” Ice says, giving Pete a quick up-and-down glance with his sharp eyes, then leaning back against the wall as if he needs more distance to appraise Pete properly.
“Oh yeah?” Pete asks, and he’s starting to feel that feeling again; the blood in his ears, his own pounding heartbeat, the heat under his skin.
“Yeah,” Ice pushes himself off the wall, wrapping his fingers around Pete’s wrist, “Cause that’ll mean someone’s looking for you.”
Or: Iceman and Maverick and their feelings for one another after the dogfight while they're on the Enterprise

Summary
Tobio’s smiling.
It’s a crooked little thing, as if he hasn’t smiled in a while and his face kind of forgot exactly how to do it, but it makes him look so different from his grumpy facial expressions in the early morning. He looks younger, softer, more beautiful. And, oh no, he has dimples. Shoyo’s palms break into sweats, and he tries to subtly wipe them down on his jeans, giving Tobio an awkward smile.
“Hi,” Tobio and his dimples say. Shoyo just stares at him.
or: Shoyo works at a coffee shop, Tobio frequents said coffee shop, they date about it.

Summary
“What’s the plan for today?” Xiaobao asks as Huaien places the lychee skins in an empty bowl to throw away later. On the good days, they do things like fly kites with Xiaoyu or go into the city and try foods from the most interesting looking carts or take a boat out onto the lake or meet with the townspeople to discuss trade.
“Anything,” Huaien says, brushing a crumb from the corner of Xiaobao’s lip, “We can do anything.”
Or: Xiaobao as the constant through Huaien's good and bad days.

Summary
“That’s my shirt,” Kageyama used to like reminding him when they were younger, to which Hinata would reply with a cheerful, “What’s yours is mine!” Now, neither of them really remember which article of clothing started off where. It’s been too long. They share every aspect of their lives, so sharing clothing isn’t as daunting as it used to be.
or:
A glimpse into the life of older, retired Kageyama and Hinata.

“How dare you!” Shoyo steps into Tobio’s space, brandishing the sock in his direction threateningly despite the way it flops harmlessly with his gestures.
“How dare I?” Tobio asks, tilting his head in confusion, “You’re the one who stole my socks.”
“I didn’t steal your socks,” Shoyo hisses at him, pushing the sock into his chest, forcing Tobio to take it back, “You gave me a stupid soulmark.”

On Javy's insistence, he brings Bradley with him, and they get closer as Jake has to face his past and deal with the memories seeing his family and hometown bring back.

Summary
Maverick doesn’t regret it when he takes the hit, when the last thing he hears before he ejects is Rooster screaming his name.
But then he wakes. Not to a vast, white snowfield behind enemy lines—but to an inverted cockpit of an F-14.
And to Goose, alive and well in the seat behind him.
—
Or; the time-travel fix-it in which TG:M Maverick wakes up at the start of TG (1986).

Summary
Ice may have earned his callsign for his technique in the air, but Maverick has to imagine half the students think Ice got it from his ability to dole out brutal freeze-burning remarks.
Well. Leave it to the Iceman to find a way to make his callsign define him through and through.
_______
From the moment they met, Mav knew Kazansky had a mouth on him. It isn't until they're both instructors at TOPGUN, though, that Mav learns just how brutal Ice can be.
One thing's for sure: Maverick's never bored, teaching alongside Iceman. He's just not sure he's going to survive the job unscathed, himself.

Volleyball, but make it pining, trash talk, and accidental teamwork. The sun’s hot, the sand’s hotter, and there’s only so much a man can take before kissing happen
