You know what we don’t talk about enough?

The very real possibility that Bradley’s middle name is Pete…

I've been listening to some country music and I stumbled across this song.

And what can I say? Can't stop thinking about Bradley riding his cowboy.

Sereshaw (Hangster) and Icemav Shipper here.

Any Hangster or Icemav Shippers who want to be friends? Or Stuilly. Or Ghostfrank. Got kinda lonely and I'd love to talk to other people. Literally at that point I'd be grateful to just talk about anything haha. Please don't be shy to comment or text me if you'd like to :)

still obsessed with rooster's effing and blinding back seat driving

"mav...why are the wings coming out?"

"mav, this is a taxiway, not a runway! and it's a very short taxiway!"

"shit!"

"mav do some of that pilot shit"

"oh shit!"

"what the fuck was that!"

Idk why, but I’m thinking of Bradley wearing a beanie when it gets cold outside and it driving Jake absolutely insane with how cute it makes his boyfriend look🥹

Rooster, after making a mistake: Oh, fuck me!

Hangman: At least let me take you to dinner first.

Ice is napping on the couch, with Baby Goose asleep on his chest, his little hands wrapped around Ice's shirt, and one of Ice's hands on the kid's back to keep him from falling down.

Mav snaps a picture.

(I like to think of them as their own people but---)

Unpopular opinion: Rooster is Mav-coded but has Ice's vibes and Hangman is Ice-coded but has Mav's vibes

hangster lovers i present to you: bradley going to a rodeo on shore leave and getting his hat steamed and shaped by the charming man at the stall

sorry but this is how I imagine icemav as parents in my head...

If I don’t write bottom Bradley, would it be written at all?🤔

I've really grown attached to the idea that Iceman just does not vibe with Hangman and doesn't approve of his relationship with Rooster.

I just think it's funny. People think they'll get along because they're both ambitious pilots and he loves that cocky attitude in Maverick, but it ends up being the worst of both worlds. He has Tom's ambition, but not his reputation for respect or loyalty. He has Mav's cockiness, but not his out-side-the-box approach to flying that justifies it. And poor Hangman is stuck desperately trying to prove him wrong...

Maverick: Can't you go easier on him Tom? He did save our lives after all, that has to count for something.

Iceman: Oh, so the guy whose job it was to provide backup, successfully provided backup? And that automatically makes him good enough for Bradley? There's a guy at Starbucks whose job it is to make my coffee order exactly as I like it, and he does, but that doesn't mean I think he should marry my son!

*Rooster falling for a pretty blonde that he is convinced he hates*

Maverick: I taught him so well.

(Rooster has a date at the Hard Deck, and Hangman is well...) Phoenix(gasps):...You're JEALOUS! Hangman(clearly jealous): I am NOT jealous. And I'll tell you why I'm jealous - Because I'm not jealous! Phoenix: You're not making any sense. Hangman:  - Oh and all of a sudden you're the President of Things that Make Sense?!

Phoenix: Look I get it, most your guys’ fathers are gone or they suck-

- everyone offended -

Rooster: Not mine. I fucking love my dads.

- Mav and Ice doing cute husband things and Ice having Icepops sense -

Ice: ….I think baby goose called us his dads to the squad again.

Maverick tearing up: that’s my boy

[During the first briefing]

Maverick: Any questions?

Hangman: *raises his hand*

Maverick: Yes. The guy Bradley has a crush on.

Dagger Squad: *blinks*

Hangman: *blushes hard*

Rooster: *stares at Maverick in disbelief*

Hangman almost got in huge f*cking trouble for flying out to save Maverick and Rooster before he was ordered to, but Maverick made a call to Admiral Ron "Slider" Kerner, and all he had to say was "...He's Bradley's Iceman."

...And Slider put an immediate stamp of approval on it and forbid anyone from punishing Lieutenant Seresin for his actions.
