Has this been done before (im sorry if it has, let me know and i shall credit)

Everyone say thank you, Tony Scott.

Consistently shocked by the idea that people think Bradley Rooster Bradshaw is chill and laid back. He’s actually shockingly unchill. He is the opposite of chill. He did not inherent any of his parents chillness. He’s a loser who’s too invested in everything.

Like ya hi I’m Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw and I cut off my remaining family, surrogate father, and support system for 15 years cuz he pulled my naval academy papers because he didn’t want me to die like my biological father and because my mother wanted me to be free of the navy’s confinements and to exist outside of a system that physically uses me for their own power and political gains— gains I will never experience and feel for myself. A system that sees me as no more than a number, a soldier, something easily replaceable, as a body to be sacrificed in a war that i did not start nor will i finish.

“Bradley's chill.” No he’s not. He’s a beast. He’s a 30 something year old man whose entire purpose revolves around holding a grudge and proving his surrogate father wrong. This beast who literally said this to his surrogate father— "No wife. No kids. Nobody to mourn when you burn in." Beastly. Ghastly thing to say. 15 years and he still hates the guy who's been there for him since day one. He’s a guy who refuses to even begin to understand where Mav was coming from or to even think of what his mother wanted. He’s evil. And I love him.

Hi I’m Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw and when someone brings up a well known, easily accessible fact that my father and surrogate father used to fly together I will try to cause physical harm against them and my friends will have to physically hold me back. I’m Bradley Bradshaw and I was willing to put my entire career on the line (the one in which I put my family aside for) so I can attack and beat this guy up.

I love his big ol’ Bambi eyes… he’s evil and fucked up and he’s not chill. Yes he wears jorts and tropical shirts, but that just means he’s gay and a fucking liar. Just cuz he looks like some surfer dude does not mean that he’s actually laid back like one. He’s lying to himself— trying to convince himself he is something that he is not and never will be. He is unchill. He’s lame. He has undiagnosed anxiety and it physically expresses itself through anger and loserly-ness. He cares so much to the point of self sabotage. He will always be unchill, no matter how much he tries to change that fact.

BREAKING NEWS! Ice and Mav STUCK in a centrifuge! (do NOT let them out.)

lock them away. they need to be put away. LOCK THEM UP! i put them in a centrifuge. they're gonna be spun around so fast that all their liquids, gasses, fluids blah blah blah are going to separate and then i'm going to figure out what's wrong with them.

what would you say is the most underrated Top Gun fanfic you've ever read?

(Btw, I'm absolutely in love with all of your work!❤️)

Hello Anon! Thank you so much for the kind words! (im screaming crying sobbing tearing at my hair out of excitement!) <3

As for the question, I definitely have to give a shoutout to ALL of my mutuals who write top gun fics (and all of my mutuals in general, y'all are awesome!) I think that all of their works deserve so much more attention and praise! I have so many mutuals that write (one of my greatest accomplishments! Love, love, love you all!) and i definitely think everyone who sees this should check out the talented people i follow and read their work because it's all so fucking awesome and cool! (love love love!) As for a specific work? Hmmm, i haven't been reading much top gun fanfic recently (or much of any fanfiction right now, school is kicking my ass </3) but i remember being shocked that Kissed By The Sun by @wordsonamission only has around 2,700 hits! Reading that fic was such a joy! And in my humble opinion, very underrated!

Anyway, thank you again, Anon! Getting this ask was such a nice surprise! Even though I don't know who you are... this is so us...

Hello! I'm stopthatfool! Call me E!

I go by a similar username on AO3! Check me out!

So here are my specific tags (as I try to organize this blog)!

- #stopthatfool goes crazy and explodes: my rambling posts full admiration and awe or genuine silliness - #stopthatfool writes: for the posts that surround my fanfic work! - #stopthatfool draws: for the times that I draw... and decide to post it.. hell yeah! - #stopthatfool remembers how to paint: for the times.. I, well, paint. - #stopthatfool's adventures with photoshop: sometimes i make silly things on photoshop! - #stopthatfool's headcanons: i fear... this is rather self explanatory...

FYI! My ask box: "im listening..." is open and shall remain open until the end of time.. please feel free to chat! (please!)
