    Summary

    Mav’s both eyebrows twitched. “That does sound like it’s going to be a problem.”

    “I didn’t mean it like that,” he said, making himself look straight ahead, avoiding eye contact. “He’s a shithead in the same way you are.”

    “Bradley,” Mav said, and he was using that tone, the one that made Bradley feel like he was fifteen again.

    “What? It’s true. He has the same lack of brain-to-mouth filter, doesn’t know when to quit, I can go on if you want,” he said, but Mav didn’t take the bait. They marched down the tarmac, getting closer and closer to the others’ hearing range, and Mav was still staring at him, expecting an explanation. He sighed. “He’s my ex-boyfriend.”

    Your—” Mav exclaimed, falling a step behind Bradley, before catching up, striding inches away from Bradley’s side. “From before?”

    "Yep."

    “Why didn’t you say anything?”

    God, why was this tarmac so long? “As much as I’d prefer to avoid him, orders are orders, Mav.”

     

    Or, it's time for the special detachment and Bradley's decisions from five years ago are finally catching up with him.

    Summary

    Carole wasn't able to be in her son's life as long as she wanted. But that didn't mean she couldn't leave him letters, little glimpses of love and advice that she longed for him to know. What happens when Bradley comes across one of Maverick's letters on his 18th birthday? What had Carole wanted Mav to know?

    Summary

    Bradley wakes up late on Tuesday morning. It's the third week of classes and he'd stayed up too late in the lounge with the other guys watching the game. His alarm should have gone off at 7:30, but he probably forgot to set it the night before. He wakes up to a pounding on his door at 8:50, and by 8:55 the world has changed.

    Going to war. Uncle Wood says they're going to war and yeah, Bradley thinks to himself dumbly, that makes sense. But if the nation is going to war, his entire family is going with it.
    -----
    Or: Bradley hasn't spoken to his family in a year, when he stormed out and never looked back. Now, the World Trade Center is in flames and his family is being deployed. Returning home is never simple, but maybe it can start with a phone call.

    Summary

    1989
    It had taken him some time to come around to accepting their spots at teaching TOPGUN. He and Slider wanted to finish out their tour first. And then Slider suggested they go teach, and he saw it as a good opportunity to start his climb up the ranks. He has plans, and he doesn't settle for less than perfection.

    It's strange, though, being back at Miramar without Maverick. His presence - and Goose's, to some extent - seem to haunt the hallways.

    Slider says he's moping.

    He is doing no such thing.

    Regardless, he'd sent Mitchell a postcard, purely to give him his new mailing address and phone number.

    2019

    "Mav! No!"

    Ice's breath catches in his throat, his gaze locked on the monitors in front of them. Searching for any sign of what might have happened.

    "Dagger One is hit! I repeat, Dagger One is hit!"

    He's frozen. He's sure his heart has stopped, and he suddenly feels as cold as his callsign implies him to be. Maverick disappears off the screen.

    Summary

    Both Jake and Bob gave up hope on ever really finding family, then they get taken in by Navy's Batman, or the closest thing to one, that there exist.
    This isn't superhero au, just found family one with a lot of comic metaphors (that Maverick doesn't understand) because Jake and Bob are nerds in this.
    Or just after Bradley leaves, Mav gets phone call that somehow ends up turning his world upside down once again.

    (IceMav end up taking in foster kids Jake & Bobby after Bradley left AU)
