Summary
"I'm not a ghost. I promise." Rooster patted his knee, but Hangman brushed him off, burrowing deeper into the couch. He didn't look like the cocky pilot Rooster had known. He looked…afraid, an emotion Rooster had seen only once. After the mission, when they'd successfully landed. Hangman had been standing on deck, drenched in sweat, helmet hanging limply in one hand, face drawn.
You saved my life, he thought. Do you know that you saved my life?
Probably not.

Summary
Tom had understood him like nobody else ever would. He had been there; he had dreamed of it over and over. He'd seen the limp, lifeless body Maverick tried desperately to cling to even as the medevacs pulled them apart. He'd stood there in the locker room, searching for something to say, even though there was nothing.
Tom might have even cared about him, once.
But Maverick knew better now.~
Twelve years after kicking him out, Ice calls Maverick back to Top Gun one last time.

Summary
It's easy, he tried to tell himself. There's nothing to it. Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid.
But he was. He was and he had always been. And now, with the bubbles swirling around him, pockets of air straight from his lungs, Ethan understood that it had all come to this moment. All the teasing and jokes and the pitying looks and the raised eyebrows. Feet in the water, feeling the flood rush toward him. Take the step, go into oblivion. So cold. Slippery sandtileporcelain, nothing to grab him when he fell.
I am afraid. I am afraid I am going to die. I am afraid I'm going to drown.

Summary
"I don't know how to describe it. It's like I was looking into a different life. Where I…" His face scrunched up, and he rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. Ice realized he was embarrassed. "Where I was a girl instead of a guy. That's all."
During a six month deployment on the Oriskany, Maverick finally realizes who he's supposed to be.
A she.

Summary
Ilsa reaches for the wine bottle. It’s a twist-off cap, and she unscrews it easily. “I’m just saying,” she continues, unstacking the paper coffee cups and pouring each of them a glass. “I have a shower.”
“So you can look through my stuff while I’m vulnerable,” Benji finishes for her.
She smiles, sliding a cup his way. “If I wanted to do that I would have already.”
“Then why?”
“You can’t just accept I’m being nice to you?”
His eyes flick to Ethan. “Do you really think she’s ‘just being nice’ to us?”
By complete coincidence, Ilsa spots Benji and Ethan in the streets of Marbella, hanging on by a thread. On purpose, she decides to run into them.

Summary
Tom’s brow remained furrowed, then his eyes narrowed. “Is this some kind of prank?”

OR

Summary
“I was on the boat for a mission that was need-only to know about, Slo-mo, sorry. No one on our side got hurt, very badly, although I’ll need to visit a couple of the pilots in the hospital tomorrow too - “
Kennedy wrinkled her nose as he dished a slice of pizza onto her plate, “Why?”
“I’m an admiral. Captain Mitchell and Lt. Bradshaw were under my command when they were hurt. They performed their missions well and admirably,’ despite being pains in my ass, he thought uncharitably to himself, ‘and they were med-evac’d out last week, off the aircraft carrier. I had to be in meetings last week, but I need to go see them tomorrow. It’s part of being a good leader.”
“Are they going to look gross?”
“Kennedy!”
Sloane sighed and spoke to her sister. “People who get hurt in combat are to be honored, Kennedy. They never look gross.”
Beau took a bite of his pizza, “Exactly.”
Sloane looked at her dad. “So are they burned?”
He stared at her for a long moment, then spoke. “No. No, they’re not burned. Relax. Both of you."
