Mav and Rooster / Top Gun: Maverick

[shademaze-deactivated20260602]

ice ditched talking to that pretty woman at the bar who was clearly into him in order to get up in mav’s face and peacock about piloting skills instead. Can you even call it closeted behavior when it’s this obvious

[kazanskyswingman]

I will forever stand on the hill of “they didn’t need to do all that, they did all that because they WANTED TO” like, Val didn’t have to be 3 inches from Tom’s face while shooting the scene but here they are in multiple interactions face to face, while Val is being all cocky and Tom is giggling and kicking his feet.

WAS THAT IN THE SCRIPT??

“Hey Val you go snap your teeth at Tom and hey Tom make sure to giggle and then just for the cherry on top Val go ahead and give tom a little pat on the shoulder and giggle at eachother some more”

top gun maverick is just one favorite scene after another and it all makes a great plot and this movie is just SO GOOD

saw top gun again (in cinema this time!) and it made me go watch maverick despite my parents both hating it and being the reason i never seen it before now. anyways surprise surprise my favourite characters are rooster and goose and i knew i had to draw rooster

i like to think mav got his callsign because he had a shitty little 1970s ford maverick that was constantly giving out on him and making him late, but he couldn't afford to get a new car. and he'd come in late, apologizing, saying it was the maverick, and it got to the point where he'd walk in, and before he could say anything, his co/instructor/whoever would just go "maverick?" and he'd sigh heavily and nod

Big fan of this Hangman/Maverick parallel. Let’s disrespect our future instructors with mama!
