just an 19 yr old girl who has a *slight* obsession over Top Gun

[icemanontop]

And if I said ‘Colors’ by Halsey describes Ice’s backstory, then what??

[icemanontop]

mav is so “you’re on your own kid” coded i could cry

[icemanontop]

i absolutely live for icemav/hangster angst but i don’t think my heart can take it anymore

[icemanontop]

icemav raising bradley means so much to me i don’t think you understand :(

Top Gun: Maverick (2022) Dir. Joseph Kosinski

[icemanontop]

so are we all in agreement that mav unknowingly is the one who first initiated the relationship by always feeling the urge to annoy and be as close to ice at all times and then acting on those urges by again, unknowingly flirting with ice, and ice - oblivious to this - tries to annoy mav back and this goes on for a couple of weeks, months even, and each encounter gets a little more romantic and intimate and everyone BUT ice and mav sees this and eventually slider brings it up to ice and goose brings it up to mav that they are in fact flirting with each other which makes the both of them suddenly too aware of their previous encounters and they start to overthink - this then leads to their next encounter and the both of them still annoy the hell out of one another but now ice seems to notice for the first time, the blush on mav’s face after he replies sarcastically back to mav’s witty comment or how mav suddenly realises that ice gets just a little too close to him to be considered normal whenever they’re together

[icemanontop]

i think about ice’s little chomp everyday because what on earth compelled him to do that?? whatever it is, i’m thankful

[icemanontop]

i always refer to Rooster and Hangman by their names (Bradley and Jake) and i sometimes do the same with the dagger squad (natasha/ javy/ mickey) and i was talking to my sister and she was like “Coyotes real name is Javy??” and then i realised that in the movie all of their actual names are never really said except for Bradley’s who was mentioned like twice and that i infact have read so much fan fiction i’ve somehow memorised all their names.

[icemanontop]

I will 100% be expecting TG3 to reference Hangster in some sort of way. Even if they don’t (and probably won’t) get together, they’ll definitely subtly reference it. (My only answer for this thought is that Glen Powell knows about Hangster and has teased us about it before.)

[icemanontop]

i saw a tiktok comment where someone said they couldn’t understand why people ship Icemav or Hangster/Sereshaw… like how could people NOT ship them??? they’re literally so ???

[icemanontop]

happy valentine’s day to the fruitiest pilot squad the world has ever seen.

[icemanontop]

I’m going absolutely insane just thinking about when Bradley said “Easy for you to say, no wife, no kids. Nobody to mourn you when you burn in.” to Maverick bc I can’t imagine how heartbroken he must’ve felt in that moment.

[icemanontop]

wdym Iceman is dead? No he’s not, he’s literally at home with Mav rn where he should be.

[icemanontop]

Bradley and Jake’s relationship has it all. Friends to Enemies? Check. Enemies to Friends? Check. Friends to Lovers? Check. Lovers to Enemies? Check. Enemies to Lovers? Check.

[icemanontop]

will this obsession over gay pilots ever end? asking for a friend.

“No one can be fully aware of another human being unless we love them. By that love, we see potential in our beloved. Through that love, we allow our beloved to see their potential. Expressing that love, our beloveds potential comes true.” - Hannibal Lecter.

OR

“You are here at the request of Admiral Kazansky… and he seems to think that you have something left to offer the navy. What that is, I can’t imagine.” - Beau ‘Cyclone’ Simpson

In other words…

Ice is always calling in favours from other admirals and using his rank to make sure that Maverick can continue flying and teaching because he see’s potential in Mav that others don’t because he loves him.

[icemanontop]

Just imagining how difficult the start of Bradley and Jake’s relationship must’ve been due to Bradleys abandonment issues and Jake’s trust? issues.
