Immediately following the success of the uranium mission, the Dagger Squad was established as a permanent unit, with the newly promoted Adrimal Mitchell as their leader. Their continuing assignment: to complete the Navy’s most dangerous, harrowing missions.
Now, with numerous successes under their belts, all twelve Daggers have settled into the San Diego area, and the extended Dagger family has grown. Proposals photographed by teammates hiding in shrubbery. Children spoiled rotten by their crew of loving aunts and uncles. Lifelong friendships formed through the hardships of service and the joy of life.
This universe will explore the love lives of the Daggers as told through these friendships, laughter, and something special to each couple.
All pieces within this universe are 18+ (minors DNI) for the mature themes and adult language. Please see masterlists for specific warnings.

anything for you | masterlist – on hiatus
Jake Hangman Seresin x Rebecca Hermann (fem!OC)
Rebecca Hermann worked for years to recuse herself from the clutches of her father, Seymour, a vicious and deadly man. Already a high-ranking member of San Diego’s infamous Dagger Organization, he will do anything to gain more influence. His latest attempt at a power grab is offering his youngest daughter, Delilah, to any man who could improve his status. Rebecca will do whatever it takes to save her sister, even if it means making an agreement with the city’s most dangerous man and rejoining the world she fought so hard to escape. Thrown back into the life of the Daggers, Rebecca must figure out how to protect her sister, eliminate the threat of her father, and live with the consequences of making a deal with the devil.

a nonsense christmas (18+ minors DNI)
Harrison Knott x Noelle Baum (fem!OC)
What do you get when you combine a silly costume (that shouldn’t be sexy but somehow is) with a few too many sips of holiday punch? A nonsense Christmas, of course!
come home to me
Rhett Abbott x Wren Johnson (fem!OC)
Rhett is drifting. He can feel himself slowly slipping away - untethered, uncaring, unable to focus. Until the card with a little brown bird on the front arrives the same day he has to say another goodbye. The seven words scribbled underneath Christmas wishes breathes life into him for the first time in a year. all my love - your little bird, Wren.

October is my favorite month of fall. It’s just the right blend of warm days and chilly nights. Apple picking, hay rides, pumpkin carving, corn mazes, and trick-or-treating to end the month. It’s filled with soft memories of fun times spent with loved ones. I’m taking inspiration from these fond memories to create sixteen days of warm, cozy, and sweet fall-related one-shots for all of my Dagger, Sword & Shield universe couples! (Plus a few extras!)

Hi, I’m Elle, and while I still adore TGM, this blog is no longer active! As of now, I have no plans to delete it so enjoy it for the archive that it kinda sorta acts as. If you want to say hi, find me over on my main blog, tagged below the cut. Thanks for all the good times here!
And to the person who reposted the photo of Lewis Pullman that used to be in the header of this post and claimed it was a photo they took. No, you didn’t. That’s a selfie I took with him years ago and cropped myself out of you weirdo.
Hi, I’m Elle, and welcome to callsignspark! I created this blog because Top Gun Maverick has consumed all of my brain cells since I first saw it in May 2022 (and there’s no sign of it letting go). See below for a few housekeeping rules.
This is an 18+ space, no ageless or blank blogs. You will be blocked.

I do my best to tag everything but for ease: all art/graphics/etc. can be found under #fan art, fics can be found under #CSS fic rec, and all characters will be tagged under their full name (and call sign if applicable).
Because of Top Gun, I’m also in love with several other characters that the young pilots have played (especially those of Lewis Pullman) so there will be some overlap!
One last note: this is a side blog, so all likes and follows will come from my main @dissonnance. Feel free to come hang out over there to witness me lose my mind over hockey, baseball, and other things!
