    Summary

    “Fuck,” Bradley grunted and pulled his fingers out, making Jake look back to see him pushing his sweats down, “we can go inside.”

    Jake shook his head, the feeling of the night air cooling his skin and the fact that any second someone could see what they were doing made his stomach flip.

    What if part of the reason Rooster was so mad at Maverick was that they'd hooked up when Rooster was seventeen?

    I have no words, I literally feel like I've lived an entire life through this work. It spans 40+ years, incorporates generations, EVERYTHING IS ALWAYS CONNECTED. Twists, turns, sadness, and everything in-between.

    Summary

    This work is a fill for the prompt linked below on topgunkinkmeme.

    https://topgunkinkmeme.dreamwidth.org/312.html?thread=91704#cmt91704

    Ice and Mav are mated, with Mav still flying combat. One day Maverick goes MIA, his plane shot down over enemy territory. Few days later frantic Kazansky is in command centre when he is told there is a message for him from a terrorist group the Navy has been hunting down. Their Alpha leader says that he has Ice’s husband and a surprise. Kazansky then hears something unusual. The other Alpha is playing the sound of a heartbeat from a sonogram. Maverick is pregnant and neither of them knew before he flew the mission.
    Bonus points: the Alpha leader took a shine to Maverick (a soldier Omega, fertile and strong enough to not miscarry despite ejection and captivity) and can’t help but brag to Ice how many strong pups Mav is going to give him.
    Extra bonus points if Kazansky goes feral and the fellow Admirals need to try and calm him down.
    Eternal love if the Alpha leader allows Maverick to briefly speak to Ice and Mav is apologizing to his mate for putting their pup in danger.

    Please read the tags before proceeding. This is a very dark story with explicit scenes.

    Summary

    Rooster is injured while ejecting from his F-18 after saving Maverick's life. Maverick finds him and is determined to get his kid home, even if it kills him. When the two aviators are captured by Russian scouts while resting, a sadistic general notices the paternal care that Maverick has for the younger man. He finds out that they don't know very much, but he's not going to just let them leave unharmed. How does Mav react when the Admiral seems to enjoy hurting Rooster a little too much? Can he find a way out before it's too late or will be have to watch another Bradshaw die?

    Loosely based on the song Forest Fire by Brighton.

    Maverick and Rooster run into a patrol on their way to steal the F-14 and the fallout of that scenario. Thank God for the SEALs. (Also, soft!Cyclone bonus points met lmao.)

    Warning: This story is very violent compared to most of my usual stories. It took me the longest to write and it’s the longest one on my index. Hope y'all enjoy!

    Summary

    Hangman never had a chance to save Maverick and Rooster from the enemy fighter, Maverick never had the chance to become an ace, and Rooster never had the chance to fly in the back seat of an F-14. For the past three months Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw had been missing in action along with his godfather Pete “Maverick” Mitchell.

    But when Jake “Hangman” Seresin is providing air cover during a mission he hears a phrase he’d only ever dreamed about. “We need medevac . We’ve found a POW Dog Tags read Bradshaw.”

    This is not a story about death, but a story about life, and how to overcome the nightmare of living with trauma

    Penny’s Christmas Party is an annual tradition. It's invite only, and the entry requirement is a dish for the potluck, an ornament for the tree, or ten bucks for the tip jar. All Jake has to do is put in an appearance and then he can leave.

    But leaving the Hard Deck soon proves more challenging than Jake was expecting. If only he could figure out who is the right person to kiss under the mistletoe...

    Summary

    Summer, 1993. Maverick really did quit the Navy after Goose died. Now he lives alone in Manhattan, plagued with nightmares and a guilt that tries to drown him. His calls with Carole and Ice are the only things keeping him afloat.

    Until the day he runs into Goose.

    Alive.

    Or:

    An unlucky and extremely well-timed series of lazy errors led to Goose being wrongfully declared dead and waking up in a New York City morgue — left hurt and tortured by memories of a past he barely remembers. But he and Maverick will find each other again. Like they were always meant to. Even if it takes seven years.

    Summary

    “Here it is,” Carole says, bringing Mav’s wheelchair to a stop.

    Mav’s mouth is dry. He aches for another cup of water. “Carole, tell me something, and don’t lie to me.”

    “Anything, Maverick.”

    “How bad does he look?”

    Carole is quiet for a while. Then she comes around and kneels in front of Mav, taking both of his hands in her own. Her eyes swim with tears. “If I didn’t know any better,” she says, voice breaking, “I’d think he was dead.”

    Or, Goose is alive when they hit the water. That's enough.

    Title from "Into the West."

    Summary

    Maverick was trying so hard to be good, to not disappoint Goose again. He was flying by the book, working extra hours on calculations, staying out of trouble. He was even being quiet! But that should’ve been Nick’s first clue that something was wrong… a quiet Maverick is never a good sign!

    Summary

    If you had asked the Daggers which one of them was most likely to be an expert nursemaid, they probably would’ve said Rooster because of his seldom talked about experience with his mother, or Bob because he’d probably have a wonderful bedside manner. Hell, even Fanboy would probably keep you in good spirits, though he’d be hard pressed to cook for you.

    But he HAD been... caring for each and every one of them when they were sick. But what happens when Jake is the one who gets sick, and they don't notice until it's too late?

    Sicktember Day #3: “What happened to your phenomenal immune system, huh?”

    Summary

    Bradley shot awake, jackknifing up to a sitting position as adrenaline flooded his system.

    Someone was screaming— and not a playful sort of squeal.

    Nat was on her knees next to him as they both scanned the beach, trying to figure out what was going on.

    “There!” she yelled, pointing to a spot about 35 yards off shore.

    There was a horrible sort of thrashing in the water and a smaller figure in pink was screaming and flailing.

    Summary

    He got it wrong. He got it so miserably, desperately wrong. Where had he gone wrong? Was he just so unlovable that even Rooster, who he saved, wouldn't care? He thought he could be better. He would have given Bradley every part of him, been the best man alive, if it had meant that he had him as a friend. He steadfastly ignores the whispers that he wanted something more as hot tears begin their journey down the slope of his cheek.
