#mav is both oblivious as fuck and desperate for ice to notice him

[unlawfulchaos]

[I choose to believe the Ice went back with Mav and they taught at Top Gun together after the Layton mission]

Maverick: Hello, welcome to your first lesson at Top Gun.

Maverick: Today we will be talking about... uh...

Iceman, whispering: Building loyalty.

Maverick: Killing royalty.

#poor mav #there's a reason he didn't last long as an instructor back then #it's because the class failed after not paying any attention to their lessons #they were too busy being entertained by icemav bickering #iceman's eyerolls became legendary #the class were too busy watching mav say dumb shit to antagonise ice to take notes #watch as iceman runs through the five stages of grief after mav says something stupid- #and ice realises with horror that he still wants him #mav is both oblivious as fuck and desperate for ice to notice him #they're both hopelessly pining for one another #while slider throws peanuts at them and heckles from the sidelines #incorrect quotes #top gun #icemav #pete maverick mitchell #tom iceman kazansky
