Hangster - Tumblr Posts

I love how the Navy made Top Gun for propaganda purposes and the fandom went like… tough luck, it’s gay now. (But for real how can anyone look at a single interaction between Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer and think to themselves “Jupp, that’s a perfectly heterosexual thing to do”?!)

Okay I desperately need a movie scene that is half fighting/hand to hand and half choreographed dance set to Yes Sir, I can Boogie and I need it to star Glen Powell. I want tuxes and a bloody smirk, and close ups of hands and eyes and lips just moving to the music in what looks like a dance but is actually a dirty fight but all in all it‘s mostly foreplay. Bonus points if it‘s gay.

I was looking for the locker room scene and couldn't find it. But you get it

Hangman: Nice outfit, does it come in man's?

Rooster: Well I think you come in men enough for all of us

Daggers: ☠️

this is hangster. no doubt about it. someone write fanfiction about it(pls I beg u). but this is 27258396469% hangster

I mean I wouldn’t be opposed to you starting to write something new - and your chef Bradley is sooo good!

I'm in the middle of a renewed obsession with cooking shows (kitchen nightmares, top chef but mostly polish editition hell's kitchen; also, watched burnt, the movie with bradley cooper, again...) and cooking for myself again (not as good...) and my top gun brainrot consensus is

I need a Celebrity Chef! Bradley AU.

An AU where he and Mav still stopped speaking when the papers pulling thing happened and Bradley left for college but when Bradley didn't have much choice but to either cook his own food (alone, without Mav's help for the first time in his life) or to starve on his college budget, he discovered some ridiculously good cooking skills there.

And you know, maybe he started a part-time job in some restaurant that went onto some equivalent of kitchen nightmares and the chef being the face of that show saw something in him and offered him mentoring and then when said chef was offered leading a new hell's kitchen/master chef show, he was there as one of the team sous chefs.

Or maybe he's one of the contestants and he either wins or he is good enough that he catches the chef's eye and gets to work and train under them. And maybe then he becomes new season's sous chef as well.

Imagine Mav turning on the TV one evening to see if he can make the new cooking show into his new guilty pleasure and seeing Bradley's face on the screen.

But I need this AU mostly because I fully believe that when they meet one way or another (either through Mav or sometime before the TGM timeline by accident) Jake has no fucking idea who Bradley is. He doesn't watch TV, he doesn't eat fancy food, and Bradley totally doesn't look like the type (hawaiian shirts, old jeans, too chill, lives in a house that looks like it hasn't had new decorations or furniture since the 80s) so when Bradley tells him 'oh I just work at a restaurant, nothing exciting' he just assumes he's a waiter or a barman or something. At that point, Bradley has his own fancy restaurant (Michelin-starred), regularly makes it onto the TV screens and is a celebrity.

So Jake would do all those ridiculous things before he finds out --- try to impress Bradley by making him burgers from supermarket ground beef, telling him his ravioli is not that good when Bradley cooks for him, taking him on a date out to a hole-in-the-wall taco place, blatantly criticizing his apple crumble because 'it has nothing on his ma's apple pie' and he might or might not have said that Pizza Hut is an okay place to go eat on a date. (And, you know, Bradley was absolutely charmed by the confidence and the dumbassery and everything in general just being so Jake, and it's not like he's a total culinary snob, he remembers how he was raised, etc).

It'd be even funnier if Jake finds out through Mav. Like, Mav asks the team to come to a dinner with his family and Bradley is holed up in the kitchen and Jake like a good southern boy asks if they need help with the food and Mav goes all, "Oh no, don't go in there, he's going to eat you alive if you even think about offering to help. My kid is some big fancy chef, he barely lets me help."

And then Bradley comes out of the kitchen with the amuse-bouche (kinda, it's not like they're in a restaurant...) and Jake has a surprise of a century because one, Bradley is Maverick's son?? and two, he's a chef??

Jake and Bradley have a little back and forth about it and then the whole squad is like, "You're dating the Bradley Bradshaw? And you, sir, your son is the Bradley Bradshaw?" because they recognize him from the TV.

And Jake finds out that not only is his boyfriend his CO's kid, he is also a world-renowned celebrity chef. And then the daggers are 0h-ing and Ah-ing at the best food they've ever eaten and Jake still goes, "I've eaten better steak."

And Mav, who has seen Bradley's rage and heard his rants about people having no taste tenses up until Bradley laughs and says, "Will do better next time, baby."

Years down the line, Bradley always repeats in the interviews that his husband is his toughest critic.

Maybe he's even asked to be the face of a new hell's kitchen-like TV show and one of the challenges for his contestant is cooking something his husband will like. Also, maybe cooking something from Mav's recipes in a way that will remind him of his childhood...

(Bonus points if Bradley is a recovering alcoholic/drug addict person non grata just like Adam from the Burnt movie... also, maybe it was Mav who kicked his butt into recovery??)

@hangmanbradshaw you have to - it is soooo good! Love me a snarky protective Jake!

Bradley/Jake, 80K, E

Bradley just wants to find love. Jake is his divorce lawyer.

Hello, Mr. "Perfectly Fine"

How's your heart after breaking mine?

Mr. "Always at the right place at the right time," baby

Hello, Mr. "Casually Cruel"

Mr. "Everything Revolves Around You"

I've been Mr. "Misery" since your goodbye

And you're Mr. "Perfectly Fine."

"You have married an Icarus, he has flown too close to the sun."

And did you think I didn't you? There were flashing lights

At least I had the decency to keep my nights out of sight

Only rumours 'bout my hips and thighs and whispered sighs

Oh Lord, I think about jumping off of very tall somethings

Just to see you come running and say the one thing I've been wanting

But no!

Baby, was it over then? And is it over now?

It's the last thing you wanted // Tell me, which side are you on, dear?

It's the first thing I'd do // Give me some tips to forget you

You tell me your problems // Have I become one of your problems?

I tell you that I think I'm falling back in love with you

I don't know if someone's done this already, but it wouldn't leave my head, so imagine this: A Mamma Mia Icemav/Hangster fusion.

Jake is Sophie, Maverick is Donna, Bradley is Skye, Goose is Rosie, Penny/Carole is Tonya, and Ice is Sam...

"My boy only breaks his favourite toys."

"You'll find that you were never not mine."

Just between us

Did the love affair

Maim you too?

Can someone wright a top gun fic but it’s the premise of the song and mv I bet you think about me by Taylor Swift

Like it either has to be a icemav fic, a hangster fic or a rooster x reader cause miles teller is in the mv and friends with Taylor swift

Hangster and possible story idea??

One hc that I constantly think about is Rooster and his incredible anger issues. You cannot tell me that his rage is gone because I feel like it’s always under the surface, 24/7. He could go from 0 to 100 in a fraction of a second. He probably makes unhinged threats too.

Imagine this:

The squad is out flying with some kids(seriously Trace, they’re only 10 years younger) at Top Gun because, obviously, the best of the best to teach the next best of the best. Phoenix, Bob, and Coyote are up in the sky with two students.

They land, then its Rooster and Hangman’s turn with two other students. They go up, they fool around, crack jokes, poke at the kids and target locks both of them. Then the kids squabble while Bradley and Jake attempt to not laugh. Anyway, they kids start getting rough in the air. Hangman tried to intercept it, but got caught in their jetwash.

Next thing Rooster knows, Jake’s plane starts spiralling for a few seconds too long before pulling up. Cue Bradley about to be these kids worst nightmare.

They land and first thing Roo does is go straight towards the pilots with a look that could kill. Everyone tried to get him to stop and take a breather. That didn’t work.

But guess who stepped in? Yep. Jake-fucking-Hangman-Seresin.

Bradley was easily talked down by Jake(a blessing, really).

So yeah.

Hangman, fully dressed in his khakis and his hair perfectly combed through: Bradshaw, as I live and breathe.

Rooster, running off of 15 cups of coffee, 2 minutes of sleep and rightfully looks terrible: Seresin. As I choke and die.

-The entire squad was stunned, even Bagman-

- the daggers just hanging out -

Rooster, picking up his phone: Hey uncle ice!

Phoenix: Ice..?

Hangman: Ice.. Iceman?

Hangman: Iceman.

Hangman: ICEMAN?? ADMIRAL KAZANSKY?!

The rest of the squad: ADMIRAL KAZANSKY??

Hangman, trying to sleep: Why are you poking the bed with a stick..?

Coyote: To determine whether or not Rooster is under the covers with you, Jake.

Rooster, poking his head out from a under the blankets: I am!
