    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

    Goose has been dead for a week and a half when Iceman loses his first wingman in a dogfight with six Soviet MiGs over the Sea of Okhotsk.

    Goose has been dead for thirty years when Iceman loses his second wingman to a surface-to-air missile on the tail-end of a mission he's responsible for: he's sent his family on a suicide mission to destroy a uranium enrichment facility in Russia's Far East.

    This is the story of those thirty years in the middle.

    (Or: Tom Kazansky rises through the ranks while trying to stay a good man. If he ever was one to begin with.)

    Summary

    Against all odds, Maverick has been selected for Top Gun.

    The night before their first day of classes, he decides to blow off some steam with an anonymous hookup in a seedy by-the-hour motel.

    The last thing he expects in the morning is to see his one-night-stand standing at the front of the class, being introduced as their instructor: Tom "Iceman" Kazansky.

    Summary

    "He was wearing a ring around his neck, on his tags," she says. "But he's notoriously a flirt, so he can't be married…"

    "Family heirloom?" Bob tries.

    "Maybe…" she says uncertainly. "I don't think that's quite right, though."

    "You think he's married, or something?" Bob shifts a little in his bed to turn and face her better.

    "Yeah. Maybe 'or something'," she says, glancing at him before looking up at the ceiling as she thinks it through. "I'm sure if we started a betting pool, someone would be able to figure it out."

    Or, IceMav's relationship as seen through the eyes of Dagger squad (and their attempts to figure out who Maverick's partner is)
