"Uncle Bradley?"

"Yes, Louise?"

"Are you and my dad going to get married?"

Bradley freezes. Jake had left Louise with him as he headed out for a job interview and Bradley had just helped Louise set up her Barbie Dreamhouse. Now they were playing with the dolls and he should have seen the question coming. Barbie had just moved in with her fiancée Suni. With the recent events, of course Louise would make a connection between play and real life.

He grimaces. "I don’t think so, Lou. That’s not why you guys moved in with me, right?"

"Don't you want to marry my dad?" Before Bradley can answer that loaded question, she hurries to add, "Because my dad could really use a husband so he's not alone anymore."

[part one]

"We, uh, really appreciate this." Jake watches Louise as she 'helps unpack' the necessities for the evening. Likely so he doesn’t have to meet Bradley's eyes as he pretends to be a normal person capable of extending a sincere thank you. Louise finds one of her Barbies and gets distracted, telling the doll about her exciting day of moving and how uncle Javy was the funniest person in the world and aunt Nat had snuck her some cookies.

It's a good time to pull Jake away to the kitchen and attempt to make him look less uncomfortable for having to pick Bradley up on his (Nat’s, really) offer of staying here. Even when Bradley would love to understand why Jake had outright lied to him about making rent when Bradley had noticed little things about him struggling financially the other week. Like that he only cooked for Louise and pretended he was trying to lose weight (what weight?) when he didn’t join her at the table to eat. Like when he became a little agitated when Louise –once again– lost one of her shoes god knows where and they had to go buy new ones.

But Jake right now looks like he's considering grabbing his kid and running in the middle of the night and Bradley thinks he doesn’t have to start that whole conversation tonight. He'll just make some food –his mom's famous Bolognese– and try to get the rigid line of Jake's shoulders to relax.

"Jake's being evicted," Nat greets Bradley when he opens the door. "He and Louise need a place to stay."

She's already squeezing past him, shrugging out of her jacket like she means business and throwing it on the couch on her way to the back of the house before Bradley can process her words. There's a room there that’s supposed to be an office but Bradley had no use for it, so it's been mostly used for storage and the occasional overnight guest that didn’t want to share his bed.

"Wait, what?" Bradley follows her down the hallway, trying to make sense of everything. "I thought he had the rent figured out. He told me so!"

"You know how he is. He probably hoped for a last minute miracle and now his dumb ass – and his daughter's – are sitting on the street."

Nat steps into the office slash storage room and puts her hands on her hips. "How can one person collect so much useless stuff, Bradshaw?"

a little exploration of aspec Jake? sure why not ☀️

Read on AO3

“There’s not some convoluted number of times we’re supposed to fuck every month. It’s personal.”

Jake blinked up to meet Bradley’s eyes again. His heart thrummed with a soft relief.

“Sounding like a fucking sex therapist, Bradshaw. Maybe you should consider a new career field."

Bradley snorted and rolled his eyes. “I’ll look into it.”

“Wow,” Bradley says, and Jake almost can’t hear him over the sound of the wind. The audible force of his awe just barely reaches him, tangling with the song still rolling through his ear. “Pretty.” Jake breathes hard as he watches Bradley’s profile, the sun glinting off the sharp plane of his nose. He’s edged in gold all around; his neck gleams with sweat, and he has a few little freckles there that Jake can’t remember noticing before now. Lips parted around an exhale, Bradley swivels to give Jake his back as he watches some pelicans go by, or listens to a family shrieking in joy on the sand below. Jake blinks, still breathing heavy. “Yeah,” he agrees, as if murmuring from a dream.

if it weren't for second chances by @ozonecologne is so good guys. i've been thinking about this fic for like twenty-four hours straight.

TOP GUN MAVERICK FEATURETTE: CLEARED FOR TAKE OFF

pampelushka

After a while, Jake comes to a conclusion. “You saving yourself for marriage?”

Bradley bursts out laughing.

“No, Jake, I’m not saving myself for marriage. I’m ace.”

That seems to piss drunk Jake off. “No, you’re not. That’s Maverick. And besides, what's that got to do with sex?”

aka... Bradley’s asexual and very confident about it. Jake’s… a little confused.

A study in intimacy.

Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw x Jake "Hangman" Seresin (Top Gun: Maverick)

55k, rated E

Cyclone breathes through his nose and keeps going. “The Navy is eager to know what exactly a fifth-gen is capable of, and to make sure their best pilots are prepared to face them again. Surely you understand this.” “Yes, sir,” Rooster and Hangman answer together. “Good,” Cyclone says. “Then you’ll also understand when I tell you that after your leave has elapsed, you two will be stationed here to help develop the new training program together.” --- Or: what happens when your cocky rival becomes your actual partner in life, mostly without your say-so.

Instructors!Hangster post-TG:M. Canon compliant, slow burn, enemies to best friends to lovers. Over 55k of big dumb hunks figuring out they're perfect for each other <3 Thank you to @ihadtoomanyredbulls for beta-ing!

It's More The Being Unknown Top Gun: Maverick | Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw/Jake “Hangman Seresin | 15,783 words | Rated M

for @pissmotif

There's always been a stubborn rumor that one of the squad is a natural. A stupid rumor, but it sticks around. They're all augments. The military stripped back their humanity and rebuilt it with all the best parts of the disease: the strength, the senses, the ability to transform at will. They were spared the worst—the indignity of duress, the lingering after-effects of transformation, the constant risk of losing themselves to the wolf. So no, none of the squad is a secret natural who's managed to fool the rest of them this whole time. But that doesn't stop them from joking about it.

or; in a squad of man-made werewolves, Jake Seresin is all natural. He loses himself somewhere along the way. Bradley finds him.

werewolves gone feral as part of my favourite people's favourite tropes series, where i ominously demand to know my friends' favourite tropes and then write them mini-fics without telling them that's what's happening.

#HOLY FUCKING SHIT MY FAVOURITE PROPOSAL EVER WITH ONE OF MY FAV SHIP #stunning <3

halestrom

you get what you need

bradley/jake, e, WIP

Recalled to Top Gun two years after the Uranium mission Bradley expects to show up, execute the mission, get his accolades and then go back to the life he had built for himself. Wanting more had never worked out for him and so he had stopped trying years ago. But the mission is nothing like he had ever done before, and as they get pulled deeper into the mission he has to contend with the danger surrounding it and what it might mean for the people in his life. Especially since as he spends more time with Hangman he realizes that what he thought he wanted might not actually be what he wants at all.

Somewhere Between the Set-up and the Payoff Top Gun: Maverick | Bradley “Rooster” Bradshaw/Jake “Hangman Seresin | 5,058 words | Rated M

The comedy show had been Maverick's suggestion, when he'd heard Fritz wondering out loud why they never found anything better to do in the evenings than hang out in the same bar. Some comedian he's seen before, or something, and Jake hadn't bothered looking into it, but Halo said she'd found some clips of the guy on YouTube and he seemed pretty funny. Jake's not really concerned about the comedy; he just likes the change of pace. So, sure: twelve fighter pilots walk into a comedy club. Jake's still figuring out the punchline.

or; Jake can't believe that he's attracted to this guy: mullet, mustache, microphone. But you know what? At least he's funny.

featuring: the impossibility of writing down a stand-up set, the mullet bradley agenda, jake and bradley being insane about each other from the get-go, and plentiful jokes about the divorce rate in the military
