Despite being head over heels in love with Ice and Mav's dynamic in the original Top Gun, the same dynamic in Top Gun Maverick with Rooster and Hangman never worked for me. This is my attempt at voicing why:
DISCLAIMER: This was not created with the intention to offend anybody who ships Hangster/Sereshaw. It is simply my understanding of their relationship, and why it doesn't appeal to me. Opinions are like the butthole, everybody has their own. By all means, continue shipping them if you want to, this is only for fun.
Hangman and Rooster's entire relationship is based on resentment.
Unlike Mav and Ice, they have history. There's something from the past that lingers in all of their interactions, poisoning all of their words and actions.
Hangman is frustrated with Rooster, all the time. Of course, he banters with everyone, Phoenix about her gender, Bob about his callsign, but those are more 5th Grader Playground insults than anything. It's different with Rooster, and not in a good way.
When it comes to Rooster, Hangman goes straight to insult his character. He doubts his judgement, insults his way of being and flying, prods about how he needs to change if he wants to fly the mission.
With Ice, he was criticizing Maverick, not insulting him. Hangman is both criticizing AND insulting Rooster because he perceives him in a less that ideal light.
Hangman doesn't understand why Rooster flies the way that he does, and doesn't try to either. He just sees it as wrong and doesn't think twice about it. He goes straight to insulting him because he thinks that it's wrong, and that it's something about Rooster that needs to be fixed.
And Rooster is constantly exasperated because of it. Hangman prods, and jabs, and insults Rooster, but it never works. The more Hangman pokes, the more Rooster closes up, frustrated. He gets angry, pissed and becomes much LESS inclined to listen to anything Hangman is saying.
Rooster doesn't work well under pressure. And that's the only way Hangman operates.
Throughout the movie, Rooster doesn't listen to Hangman once. He might've been right about Rooster being too slow, but it only fell on deaf ears (not to say that he was right to bring up Goose's death, he was defo wrong about that one). All it causes is strife, to the point where Rooster almost punches Hangman because of how infuriating he was to him.
The entire movie, Hangman provoked Rooster to get him to stop being the way he is, because he sees it as a flaw of character. And it doesn't work.
Rooster only drops his need for playing it safe when Maverick tells him to 'Not think, just do'. Because Mav only gave him a push in the right direction, not throw in his face all of his flaws.
(Side note: This is also the reason Rooster doesn't listen to Mav in their argument, because he thinks Maverick was insulting his way of being by saying he wasn't ready. On the mission, by selecting Rooster as his wingman, he recognizes that he is ready, and that he trusts him with his life. Making him more inclined to listen to Mav once in the canyon.)
A relationship where one person is constantly frustrated by the other and the other is constantly exasperated by the former doesn't work.
Because that's how they are, and that's how they function, and it isn't going to change.
Rooster isn't going to stop frustrating Hangman because that's how he works, and Hangman isn't going to stop making Rooster exasperated because he doesn't know how else to voice his feelings.
I can see where the ship comes from, because obviously. Their homoerotic tension could be seen from space. I totally believe that they might have had a fling in the past that ended badly, and that they possibly could have hooked up at some point in the movie in the 'Hate Sex' vein of things. I just don't think it'd be anything beyond that.
They wouldn't work in the long haul, is what I'm trying to say.
They're too similar, and too different at the same time.
They're both hothead stubborn motherfuckers that couldn't come to an agreement if they tried.
And you might show me the scene where Hangman is happy about Dagger 2 hitting the target, and him being absolutely devastated when the same hornet is shot down. I recognize it, it demonstrates care. Hangman cares.
Thing is, that doesn't change anything that I said prior to that.
It's possible to resent, despise, be bitter towards and irritated by someone and still care about them. It's possible to hate them and still care. Hate them, and feel like you don't hate them all the time. Human emotion is a funny thing like that, nothing is ever black and white, always varying shades of gray.
Just because they hate each other (and yes, that is the reading I have on them, doesn't stop them from being horny fuckers about each other tho) doesn't mean they want the other dead.
I believe it's similar to the sentiment of "I hope you get everything you ever wished for, and that I never hear a word about it". Similar, but not the same, in a way I do not know how to describe. Thus, I used that to give the same vibe.
I can't see any future for them, in any shape or form. They hold too many grudges against each other, and both of them have a tendency of holding on to old (bad) feelings far too strongly. Even if they work through whatever problems they have now, new ones would emerge and they would go through the same process again and again and again.
That isn't healthy nor stable. It's not what either of them should strive for in a relationship. With that, I'd probably say that both of them need stable people that hold logic to high regard, and that are easy going (I say that in general terms, with no one specific in mind for either of them).
All that being said, this is my opinion. This is how I view them, and understand their relationship. They don't work for me because I see no logical way they could.
If they work for you, that's great! Enjoy the air gays 2.0 to your hearts contentment, I'm happy for you.
This was just a fun analysis of my vision, with no intention to diminish anyone who might enjoy them.

OKAY; We need to talk about this TyZula scene:
this scene has been talked about a LOT. specifically by anti-tyzula/azula fans. but for this "rant" im looking at it through the lens of just azulas character.
it is DETRIMENTAL to azula as a character. this will be a slightly indepth review i guess. im sure someone already talked about this and what im going to say, but i just want to bring it to light considering some of the anti-azula/tyzula stuff i've been seeing recently
Part 1: Azulas reaction to the way Ty Lee approaches her
the way ty lee approached azula is really important here. you might just think, "oh leo it's just Azula being jealous!" but when ty lee walks up to azula saying, "thank goodness you're here!" (i didn't get this part in the clip cuz im a fool and didn't record it on time but whatever go watch the clip on youtube) this qoute is really impactful. it possibly made azula feel less than ty lee. here is the qoute again, "Thank goodness you're here", i feel like azula would take this very personally.
even just the single first sentence. "Thank goodness" is obviously ty lee thanking azula, but for what? you might say, "well yeah for being there" but i genuinely believe azula would interpret this along the lines of, "she only wants me when she needs me" or something like that.
Part 2: Azula's jealously towards Ty Lee
i think a lot of people solely think she's jealous over the boys liking ty lee more than her. but it's not just that. i genuinely find that azula is not only jealous of the boys, but also social interaction in general. specifically with ty lee having that skill and her not.
we don't have much information as to mai, ty lee, and azulas experience in the Royal Fire Academy for Girls, but im assuming azula didn't need much social skills to succeed there. she had two close friends to deal with people speaking to her, and was literally a crown princess of the FIRE NATION. if she couldn't get what she wanted whether mai or ty lee were there- she could always use her royalty as her advantage. i also can see her threatening those in school who opposed her (without using her royalty as a reason). there is a key moment we see during a flashback where azula and ty lee are playing. azula did her best to preform a cartwheel and failed while ty lee succeeded. because of this azula actually pushes ty lee down!
keep in mind that this is one of azulas closest friends other than mai. we can only IMAGINE what azula would do to a student who got in the way of something she wanted.
so yes; azula is jealous of ty lee getting attention from boys, but it's not solely that. it's her social skills that she's also jealous of.
Part 3: The Conflict
azula gets defensive after her reaction to the previous plot point. she verbally attacks ty lee because of it. azula says to ty lee, "those boys only like you because you make it so easy for them! you're not a challenge, you're a tease."
yes azula is "critiquing" the "way" ty lee attracts men. azula is saying she'd do the exact opposite. but the opposite is all she knows. she grew up learning the power of being the best, being perfect, and fear mongering. she genuinely sees that as the way to handle ANY social situation.
as far as, "it's not like they actually care who you are." qoute goes; azula sees this as another flaw in her interactions with men.
example is when she tries to convince chan to to maybe (?) have a relationship or farther; she uses (not exactly royality) but her skills as a skilled bender for a reason to stay with her. considering she has no social skills, her only option (in her mind) is to use her higher power. ty lee doesn't use her high rank in nobility (along with her chi blocking abilities) to what azula would call an advantage.
im not defending azulas verbal assault on ty lee. im solely explaining (imo) the feelings behind it.
Part 4: Ty Lee's reaction
This one is simple. ty lee is hurt by azulas words. obviously.
Part 5: Azula's redemption for this scene
it already baffles me when people say azula is (pure evil) just based on her actions between others. but this scene shows a side of azula we haven't been able to see so far through the series. an apology. not only did she apologize to ty lee but admitted her mistake and explained why she said what she did. i think it's insane that people solely walk past this scene and only see it as azula bullying ty lee. if anything it's the opposite. yes she makes a rude remark, but after seeing ty lee's reaction she IMMEDIATELY takes her comment back an apologizes.
this is so human and shows a side we hardly ever got to see. especially when it's specifically between her and ty lee. their relationship is so important as far as azulas character goes. (not to get too deep into it but,) even in "Azula and the Spirit Temple" ty lee is one of the illusions that the spirit attempts to make her happy with. azula obviously has a strong connection to ty lee in a loving and caring way that most people look past. whether it's from these scene or that specific comic. obviously their relationship has unhealthy flaws but what relationship doesn't?
Part 6: A quick resolution
so there you go. basically an essay on a single 36 second clip i just wanted to give azula some light because people ALWAYS paint her as "crazy" or "evil" but that's simply not true. same goes for TyZula. yes there is a power imbalance, but azula does admit her mistakes and apologizes for hurting ty lee's feelings.
Anyway thanks for reading!!

Hi! Sooo im getting around to doing it!
Wicked book!
It's a daycare attendant fan service!
Where you meet the lovely book-loving YN, who only wishes to find a new book and hide from the grumpy librarian Eclipse. And they stumble upon a pile of mesmerizing books, only to be ushered away by Eclipse.
Leaving YN to ponder, why be so secretive about 3 books?
I'll start off small with a silly Wicked Sun design!
It's simple, yet charming! Just like the silly Sundrop. This Sun design will have two parts! One where he is hidden and second where he is his Wicked self! And now you are seeing the hidden version! Moon will come next!

favorite tg ships? any unpopular ship opinions?
Favourite Ships
HIDE/KANEKI - They are the reason I wake up every fucking day of the week oh my god. I just. The death kiss, the pining, the unrequited love for a Hot minute. I mghsjfsbnsskn. Them <3
TOUKA/YORIKO - OUGH they are the lesbians of all time! They kind of have a similar dynamic to Hide/Kaneki to me BUT I think their dynamic is much healthier. Since Touka isn't grappling with living in two worlds Miley Cyrus style, she definitely has more insight on the ghoul world. So rather than hating herself for having two different worlds to be a part of, she can just hate herself for being a ghoul! 😻 I think Yoriko helps her overcome this line of thinking a Lot and inspires Touka to start eating around her. I think Yoriko would also find Touka's ukaku to be beautiful. Yoriko 100% decorates their apartment with those colours and wears those colours proudly.
UTA/RENJI - I love when a grumpy man has an edge lord bf what can I say.
AKIRA/TAKIZAWA/AMON - Why do they look at each other like that bruh 💀 Need I say more?? Akira and Amon both are down horrific for Takizawa like.
Unpopular Ship Opinions
Idek if this is unpopular but I dislike Hinami/Ayato DEEPLY. I am their number one hater on fucking god. I don't like Hinami or Ayato shipped with anyone At All.
Anyone x Rize is a no go for me. I think she's better as a stand alone character, no shipping involved. I feel like shipping her with other characters kind of takes away from her whole Vibe. I can't explain it really it's just. A vibe.
A ship I like that I think not many ppl do (?) is Kaneki/Amon in :re. In the original series NO I DO NOT SHIP THEM but in :re I can see the vision. They're not my favs but I don't mind them either.
Kaneki/Arima is a Huge red flag for me. I despise that ship SO MUCH. I appreciate them for their parallels and the storytelling they have but it is HEAVILY implied Kaneki sees him as a father AND it's a weird dynamic too :/ Idk it just is gross to me

I’M FLATTERED /GEN QVQVQVQVQVVQQVQ
He probably dresses slightly less formally these days. Like, he still kinda fancy, but comfy-fancy.
I get it
Like casual fancy, where the clothes are comfy but still fashionable
...
.... do not hate me for what I'm gonna say next. Do NOT.
Honestly. If Icia and Lance weren't a thing, I think she and Aoki would be an interesting couple.
OBVIOUSLY LANCIA IS ALWAYS NUMBER 1, IM GONNA JUST SAY THIS RIGHT NOW, LANCIA WILL NEVER DIE. LANCIA FOREVER.
But I'm also a multishipper who likes to think about a lot of things. And I'm just saying. It wouldn't be the worst ship in the world.
(No one kill me for this, Icia x Aoki will never happen and I'm glad abt that lmao)
(I'm just SAYINGGGG-)

so I wrote a FNAF fanfic kind of except at this point it might as well be my own story .. ????
So far chapter one is up!
Synopsis:
Many years ago, new revolutions in science and human psychology were uncovered, discoveries of how sound frequencies could alter human perception could change everything.
Many companies rushed to utilize these technologies, including that of Freddy's Family Entertainment. With certain subliminals, the animatronics shows really came to life. Broken down machines could dance and sing, all with the help of a little sound deception and creativity. That was... Until several incidents in the 1980s, leading to the discovery of the side effects.
Eventually the memory of Freddy's began to fade with the years, but something inside of Riley remained restless. He barely clings to the memory of his childhood, yet a hunger for closure haunts him like a ghost.
With perhaps too much wreckless abandon, he ventures into the old scrapyard, and finds far more than he was expecting.

uhhhhhhhh i wrote a fic i guess? this is my first fic- pls don't judge too much i would love some constructive criticism.... it got kinda off topic i think i started rambling a bit but lmk what you think i guess i don't know how to write (i think it's more what happened post canon than the actual prompt also)
prompt: ruffled hair (it's there i promise it's near the end)
• willex • fluff? • post-canon • he/they willie • 549 words •
————————————————————————
Skating through the LA streets at night was one of Willie's favorite things to do. They could let their worries just wash away as the cool night breeze blew over him.
He could also focus on where they were going, if he had a destination in mind. This time he did, his boyfriend's house. Or practice studio they supposed.
The streetlights lit up the almost dark streets while his thoughts raced thinking about everything they would do once they arrived. It had been a while since he had seen Alex, ever since Julie brought the boys back Caleb had been missing and the club was a complete disaster. Willie, being one of Caleb's favorites was an obvious choice to help reorganize everything, so they hadn't gotten any time to go see him.
He still couldn't believe that the boys had survived Caleb's curse, no one had ever done that before. Something about Julie… He had never met her, but Alex loved her so Willie decided they did too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sitting up from the couch Alex's first thought was, "Where the fuck am I?"
Oh.
He was in the garage of course, he had fallen asleep while watching the new Star Wars movies with Reggie. Not his favorite activity, especially with Reggie's constant gasps at the very obvious plot twists. Alex didn't mind though, he got to spend time with his friend while Luke and Julie spent another day on a date together. Ever since they finally got together a few weeks ago that's all they had been doing.
Although he couldn't really blame them, he would do anything to be with Willie right now. The club had been so busy since Caleb's disappearance they hadn't gotten to catch a break. Last time they saw each other was only for a moment, reuniting after the Orpheum performance. Their first kiss.
Alex's mind still raced at the thought of his now boyfriend. Back home when they were still alive this wouldn't have been possible. But now, anything could be happen, being a ghost and all (many questions still waiting to be answered).
Reggie was sprawled on the couch next to him, he must've fallen asleep soon after Alex or he would have been woken by the boy much sooner. He figured some food would be good, but before he could get to his feet Willie walked straight through the door.
"Willie?!"
Alex burst out of his seat in shock running towards his boyfriend and tackling them into a hug.
"Hotdog, I missed you so much!" Willie mumbled grinning ear to ear into the soft boy's shoulder.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were busy?"
"Things at the club calmed down for a bit so of course I needed to see my boyfriend."
Those words turned Alex into a blushing puddle of gay, making Willie smirk at his boyfriend's reaction, further melting Alex's heart.
Their eyes darted up to his head, where a floppy mess of hair sat- of course he had to ruffle it.
"Willieeee" Their boyfriend whined, still entwined in the hug.
They giggled at the boy attached to him, scooped him up and dumped him on the couch smothering him in kisses messing up his already messy hair. They stayed there for the rest of the night, falling asleep embraced in each others arms for the first time in far too long.
#im scared to post this#borf barks#jatp#julie and the phantoms#jatp fic#also idk how to format stuff#probably gonna post this and disappear out of fear#willex#willie jatp#alex mercer#posting it here cuz idk where to put it#i don't have an ao3 or anything
