Okay, am I the only one who thinks that it's annoying that there's accounts that only post links to "random" ao3 hangster fics? Like, there are so many posts causing other creators in this fandom and their content to drown, because you have to scroll so far down to actually see new worthwhile content.
Just me? Okay...
Edit: I'm talking about links without further information, not fic recs, obviously.

Okay, so recent tumblr post under the hangster tag have sort of inspired this:
In most fics and headcanons it's Jake who is repressed/in the closet/ has internalized homophobia. But what if it's Bradley?
This is not intended as me disagreeing with this particular setup btw. I'm just trying to inspire conversation.
I guess that variation is kind of rare because 1. a lot of hangster fics also involve icemav and 2. Bradley’s parents are highly idealized.
Imagine this: Carole and Nick and therefore also Bradley (and perhaps Mav too) being more conservative and also (at least in Carole's case) very Christian. I, at least, find the principle of Bradley being homophobic (especially in his early adult life) very interesting.
Like, sure, lesbians ans bisexual women are fine (otherwise Natasha would kill him) but when it comes to men? Especially masculine men who don't "look gay"? Bradley has a hard time dealing with that.
Then comes Jake Seresin, All-American-war-hero who is also very very gay, and Bradley is just... confused. And scared because God, he wants to fuck him (up?) so bad.
Eventually, they end up in bed together and get a little rivals-with-benefits kinda thing going on and Bradley keeps gaslighting himself that having sex with men doesn't mean he's also gay or bi. That's for falling in love, right?
And Jake is like "omg I'm dating Bradley Bradshaw. When are we gonna make it official?" because he wants to find loooove. But Bradley (at least he tell himself that) only wants to use Jake for sex.
Ahhh I love healthy relationships...
Saw this idea somewhere, cannot for the life of me remember where. But prompted my brain into a 5+1 situation in which Jake, normally put together, hot as the sun, confident and sexy Jake, is an absolute mess of a human in front of this one guy in his apartment building. Apparently cursed to appear messy and clumsy in front of him. And it's always the same fucking guy much to Jake's growing horror.
--- ONE
Staggering in at 7am, still drunk, missing a shoe, has drink stains on has shirt, lipstick smears on his face, tie missing, tear in his pants, feather boa around his waist. He's been at Javy's bachelor party all night, and Javy's sisters planned a banger of a party. Jake is glad he's taken Monday off work to recover. But standing at the entryway is a hot guy who is looking at him with raised eyebrows and Jake just gives him a little jerk of the chin and hopes he never sees him again.
--- TWO
No such luck. Next time Jake sees him he's just coming back to his apartment from the building gym and the same guy is there, waiting for the lift. He's wearing a suit this time, a full three-piece and looks all professional and put together and Jake feels even more hot and sweaty by comparison. The guy seems to be uncomfortable, and Jake isn't sure if it's him or maybe the way he smells. Next time he'll take the stairs.
Oooooh, you NEED to write this! Such a great idea!
Top Gun - Incorrect Quote 542
Maverick: Bradley, what motivates you?
Rooster: My ambition and desire to pushhumanity forward! And be the best
Maverick: Jake, what about you?
Hangmsn: An unhealthy mix of spite,pettiness, the thirst for vengeance, and pure, relentless rage. And of course be better than Rooster
Been thinking about them a lot lately too………

A word of appreciation for the TGM/Hangster community:
I know I haven‘t posted anything significant in a while, as I didn‘t have much time and was suffering from artist block (is that what you call it). But yesterday I reread all the encouraging comments and reblogs that you guys have left on my posts and it really inspired me.
I‘m really thankful to be a part of this community and this fandom - one of the best and least toxic that I‘ve ever been in and the only fandom where I feel comfortably enough posting. You all are great and give me motivation to do what I love!
Thank you
Also a word of a appreciation for the other authors and artist involved in this fandom. Everyone here is SO talented!
My spin on the Top Gun x HungerGames!AU:
(More fanart will hopefully follow)
Caesar: Lovely, seeing all you people! It’s good to be back here.
*crowd cheers*
Caesar: And today I’m sitting next to someone new. Everyone, please welcome Tom Kazansky, the great ICEMAN!
*Iceman waves and crowd cheers louder*
Caesar: How many years has it been, Tom?
Iceman: For you? More than forty years, my friend.
Caesar: Oh, how time flies. We’ve all gotten older. Not that you can see it, right, guys?
*crowd laughs*
Caesar: But no, I meant you.
Iceman: Ah. I’ve designed the games for over twenty years but this year I’m gonna be gamemaker for the first time. I wish it had happened under happier circumstances, though.
Caesar: Hm, yes, we all heard it. Tragic what happened to Seneca. Bless him. However, ladies and gentlemen, today is no day to be sad. After all, the 75th Hunger Games are about to begin. And it’s the third Quarter Quell, so tell me, Iceman, can we expect some surprises this year?
Iceman: You sure can. But of course I cannot tell you much.
Caesar: Aw, please. Give us something. We’re all so excited, right, guys?
*crowd cheers*
Iceman: Okay, okay. One thing I will say is that this year’s arena is truly something special. The landscapers really have outdone themselves this time.
Caesar: Ah, you hear that, folks? High praise from the Iceman!
*crowd cheers*
__
Caesar: But let’s take a few steps back. As we’ve already established we’ve both been part of this great show for a long time. Do you have a favourite year? Or perhaps a favourite champion?
Iceman: God. No, I don’t do favourites. But I must say that the 54th up to the 64th games were some of my favourite years. We got some great champions out of those.
I had to...
i know we talk about bradley being the more conservative flyer and jake being the instigator, the flies-by-the-seat-of-his-pants type in their relationship, but. cmon.
jake saying "um, guys, the hard deck??? you're going too low" like uwu the rules??? of our training exercise??? and bradley with fury in his eyes spitting out "i will dive straight past the hard deck and into the ground just to make my point" in their drill with maverick. if you go low he'll go lower and he refuses to be the one to pull up first even if it literally kills him. bradley bradshaw's got jake "hangman" seresin looking at him going "what the FUCK is this guy's problem" and honestly i think that's what does it for him
It's like Jake seems reckless to everyone else, but actually has a good grasp on the rules and knows his capabilities, whereas Bradley is insecure most of the time until you get him emotional and his entire frontal lobe stops functioning.
I just can't decide who would be the more unhinged one on the ground who let's their intrusive thoughts just control all of their actions...
People think Jake has no restraint, but all of his "unhinged" actions are highly calculated while Bradley is good at pretending that he has self control.
I'm rewatching topgun maverick and I know in fanfic, most people have Bradley as the top when in relationship with Jake, but I just gotta say, watching this movie, I don't know how people don't see Bradley being the bottom. And to be fair, my favorite fics are the ones where they switch it up occasionally, but I just can't see Bradley always being the top. That man is so angry and hurt and it's so clear he wants to be taken care of or at least be able to let go of control when in bed. And Jake is so bratty and confident, you know he'd be the one to protect and take care of Bradley
I'm a strong advocate for PowerBottom!Jake. Not 100% sure why but i think it's because being a dominant/strong-willed bottom evens out the power dynamic that is sort of inherent to penetrative sex. But honestly, I can't see Bradley bending over for anyone because he gives deeply insecure vibes and Jake also doesn't feel like he'd be a gentle, caring top.

This is a reaction to someone's post about Bradley being fully accepting of his sexuality (gaaaay):
(BTW this isn't meant to disagree/antagonize you. I just looked playing devils advocate.)
How about Carol being incredibly Christian and incredibly homophobic? Because, like you can be cheerful and basically sunshine in a bottle while also being pretty narrow-minded. That would add so much depth to Bradley"s character. Imagine him not being exposed to homosexuality at all during his youth (either icemav isn't a thing or they kept it VERT quiet).
Perhaps he's bisexual and Jake is his awakening. Jake who is openly gay and proud (though he had to fight for it, of course).
Bradley gives off so many chill vibes when he's in a casual setting but it would be such a great dichotomy if that chillness simply disintegrated as soon as homosexuality/Jake is involved.
Just saying. Think about it.
Queer Overload??? Concerning TGM: There is a point where too many queer ships in a fanfic actually become more annoying than comforting (Nat/Callie, Hangster, Icemav, Fanboy/Payback, etc.) - like... it's too fluffy, man! Am I the only one????
Yes, I agree, give me those token straights! For ✨️realism✨️
Nah, the gay-er, the better!
Omg I feel this so much!!! Like, I don't have a problem with either Callie or Nat being lesbians, but with each other??? And you're welcome @gaydaroreilly (I guess) for selling you on Javy/Nat.
Perhaps, my issue is also that these (typically queer, especially in male dominated genres) relationships only involve characters that are already there and therefore don't expand the world enough to be satisfying in a (especially multi-chaptered) fanfiction.
Excuse my word-salad I don't know what I'm sayingfttffgfs

Does anyone remember this internet trend (was it a trend) with girlfriends posting pictures of their boyfriends post-coitus with this caption? No one? Well, anyway, I still wanted to make another IG story style fanart.
Headcanon: Bradley loves video games, Jake doesn’t, but he still joins his boyfriend when he’s yelling at their tv playing Call of Duty.

Okay, but my favorite Rooster is the one that is unhealthily obsessed with Hangman and also constantly lusting after him in a kind of crazy way.
Context: Jake gets harassed at a club by a guy he once was involved with, so naturally, Bradley decides to step in.
Jake: What‘re you doin‘?
Bradley: You told me to sell it.
Jake: But you’re straight!
Bradley: A nice piece of ass is a nice piece of ass.
Feel free to write a fic about this.
