annnnd the tears have started again.
Hi TG Fandom!
So this AU came to me in a dream and I woke up with actual tears so — here we go.
In the deepest chunks of my cold, dead heart, I believe that even if Ice married Sarah, he still always loved Mav. There were just so many reasons why they couldn't work out long-term: Ice wanted to advance, Mav didn't want to hold him back, the danger of being a gay couple in the ‘80s and ‘90s — let alone in the Navy.
It just couldn't work out for them. They were trying to protect each other and that meant sacrifices on both ends.
But it doesn't mean they ever stopped loving each other, Ice’s love was shown in saving Mav’s ass time after time, and Mav’s was in being there — always, no matter what Ice needed.
Mav was there when all three of Ice’s kids were born, his two daughters and his youngest: Tom Kazansky Jr.
Junior, who only looks more like his namesake with every year that passes.
Eventually Mav gets shipped to China Lake so he doesn't have to get a front-row seat to Ice dying right in front of them (Ice’s decision of course).
The Mission rolls around, and lo and behold: a Tom Kazansky will always appear to Mav in his time of need.
But instead of a text — it’s in the form of Junior, a vision of 27-year-old Tom Kazansky, complete with moles and his big ass teeth.
“Apparently, we’ve got a mission, Maverick.”
Imagine the complete agony of a world where Mav never gets to have the life he deserves with the man he loves, and not only that, but he's surrounded by the living specters of the two men he loved most and lost.
A world in which he gets to keep a piece of Goose and Ice, but only as a reminder that the Bradshaw and Kazansky on his wings will never be the ones he wants.
Or the flip side, where Mav is the only piece of their fathers that both boys have left and there gets to be a Kazansky-Bradshaw-Mitchell trio in the sky again.
Just me? Okay 😭
(Ice sent Junior out as a Dagger with a promise to: Be His Wingman. Both of them knowing he wasn't going to be there when Junior got back.)
Just rewatched Topgun, and i am SCREAMING. Did ya'll realize. that Ice is the ONLY PERSON WHO SAYS SORRY after Gooses death. Everyone else keeps trying to get Mav back into a plane, but Ice says sorry.
Anyways, im crying again and going through all my favorite fanfics.
(Also just found out that i read one of the fanfics 20 times? like wtf. I think i have some issues lol)

I think it's funny. that so much of my homepage/for you page on tumblr is Resident Evil and Stranger Things content. I have never in my life played resident evil. I have never watched stranger things. I have never posted about any of this. Where did it comes from?? I don't understand any of it. Give me back my icemav lol.
i FUCKING LOVE THEM
Thomas Iceman Kazansky got his callsign in the Academy, when during a freak heatwave, he and a bunch of other students got drunk as fuck and he had the bright idea to wander off in search of cooler pastures. They found him hours later, sleeping peacefully in an open refrigerator, one of the old industrial ones, like the cold didn't affect him at all.
It also helped that one week later, an instructor and an admiral saw his steady flying and how he handled crises with a stern, collected countenance and remarked on his ice cold nerves of steel. It went from there.
god i love them
Maverick, reminiscing to the daggers about the "good old days"
Maverick: Oh we used to get up to all sorts of hijinks and fun. You wouldn't believe it.
The daggers, who found Gooses diary of their unhinged and feral behaviour: ohh really??? You don't say.....
Maverick: Yea, but we've calmed down, have to take it a bit slower now. Practically tame these days 😇😇😇
Iceman, in the next room, leans through the door to eyeball Mav: Your dumbass went mach 10 last week. "Calmed" my ass!!
The daggers: *in shock*
Maverick, gasping dramatically: Ice! That is a lie!!
The daggers: *deep sighs of relief*
Maverick: It was Mach 10.5, thank you 😊
The daggers: 💀
bradly is the fucking definition of a Nepo baby. His nepo-baby-ness puts all the other nepo babies to shame
they hate me cuz my daddy is rich
If I may add on:
Rich boy Ice who desperately wants to learn how to cook
Poor boy Mav who has to teach him
Mav: Have I ever told you what a good cook you are?
Ice, frying a salad: You have not.
Mav: Yeah, there's a reason for that. Get out of my kitchen.
i love the gay dumbasses
Slider: I beg you, leave Mitchell alone Ice: We're having a staring contest Slider: He'd actually have to look back for it to be true, buddy.
i love this so much. I mean, it's not my personal headcanon, but that doesn't mean that i would not read the SHIT out of a fanfic like this.
Hi TG Fandom!
@xtherainbowconnectionx mentioned Texan Ice to me and I cannot get him out of my head.
Just, a Tom Kazansky who was raised out in Nowhere, Texas and didn't really wear shoes until he was old enough for school.
An Ice who was called Junie or Junior growing up and the only son of a bullfighter and a barrel racer who fell in love at the local Rodeo.
Maybe he was the only child of a mother who died too soon, died bringing him into the world too early because it was 1959 and they lived so far from town. He was small and pink and Tom Kazansky Sr. was so desperate that he popped his newborn son in a basket and put him in the oven to keep him warm.
He gives his name to that little boy because it’s all he has to give, a name from a place he's never been and the deed to his dead Mama’s farm.
I need a Tom Senior who tries so hard but doesn't understand his son. Ice has dreams of flying and something beyond sorghum fields and Tom Senior loves his son with all his heart but doesn't really know him. He didn't know his own Daddy beyond the buckle of a belt. He raised his son with all the goodness he could muster.
He doesn't want his little boy to go to a place that he can't protect him and the only thing he knows about the military is the boys who didn't come home from ‘Nam.
He can't vocalize his fears though, so he tells his boy not to come back without a chest full of metals and golden wings.
Then he cries in his barn with no company but the stars.
Ice comes home with a loudmouthed boy who is small and wiry and reminds Tom Senior of himself — running away to the Rodeo to fight bulls that were less scary than his own drunk of a daddy.
He loves his boy, who is the sun that rises and sets, the thing that Tom Senior’s world revolves around. But there is no poetry in their life and he's just a man, but he opens the door wide enough to usher both men inside.
“Y’all can bunk down in Junior’s room. It’s mighty fine to me.”
It’s love, in the only way Tom Senior can express it.
Just — Texan Ice is giving me feelings.
oh i love them
