Bring your grandpa/dad to work day, but Jake got attached to this old man named Tom.
Tom was some old guy he snarked off at a coffee shop once and was pleased when the older man calmly gave a witty retort.
He keeps on bumping into the man in the same coffee shop, but he bumps into the old man at the park and grocery place at well.
Surprisingly they hit it off, and Jake looks forward to seeing Tom even though he'll never admit it. Tom's getting fond of the boy. Especially when he realized 3 months in that this was the same Jake "Hangman" Seresin who saved his husband and Baby Goose.
One day there was a bring your dad/grandpa/son to work day. Jake was talking about it to Tom, sad that he doesn't really have anyone to bring and was planning to call out because even tho Mav is great and Javy's family always welcome him, he feels like an outsider in those events. Tom hesitantly offered to come, not wanting to overstep, and Jake looked overjoyed.
Tom comes to the event and Jake was showing him around the base, and the shenanigans he gets into with his squad (Tom is delighted to gain some more blackmail against Mav). He also starts introducing Tom around, and some people are staring wide-eyed or straight up choke when they see Tom.
Why the fuck is the COMPACFLT here and in civvies!??? AND HANGMAN IS CALLING HIM, TOM???
Iceman makes sure to give his trademark glare to everyone who even thinks about mentioning his title or saying something to Jake. Everyone just snaps their mouths shut and smiles awkwardly.
It continues with Jake dragging THE ICEMAN around like an excited puppy, and Tom looking fond and ruffles Hangman's hair every few minutes. The base didn't realize how young Hangman really is until that day.
Eventually Tom and Jake run into Mav and Bradley and both have their mouths wide open as Jake introduces Tom to them.
Eventually ends with Mav saying, "Hey! I adopted him first!" While pouting.
"He takes after me more," Ice says giving Mav a grin as he slung an arm around Jake's shoulder to pull him against his side.

A sitcom-like/humour fic AU where Bradley's papers haven't been pulled and he does land in USNA but he's doing everything and anything not to be labeled as the nepo baby even though he definitely is a nepo baby
This would include:
- Bradley knowing things he isn't supposed to know as a first year (plebe?) because he had inside sources (Ice and Slider) and things didn't change much
- Every single person from the personnel knowing who he is and Bradley ditching attempts to use him as a stepping ladder to meet Ice and/or Mav
- Having to listen to his crush (Hangman) making whole odes about his old man (either Mav or Ice, you pick)
- Pretending he doesn't know Slider when he comes to visit as a 'guest speaker', including when Slider tries to speaks to him, making Slider seem crazy
- Lying to everyone that he had a family emergency and that's why he was gone the last two weeks of summer training when in reality Ice pulled him out because he wanted to take him and Mav to the seaside somewhere in Europe
- When they get an opportunity to get a pilot licence along their studies, he fakes ignorance and signs up again (despite already having a pilot licence) and then demolishes everyone and gets banned from flying in the training group (*cough* Mav's influence *cough*)
- Doing the craziest mental summersaults and pretending he didn't know who Ice was when he was driving him back to the Academy and talking to him at the meet point and people saw ("Oh was that Admiral Kazansky? I thought he'd be taller")
- Hangman: So what your parents do for a living? Rooster: My dad works admin (there's a lot of paperwork when you're an admiral) and the other one is switching to research (testing planes kinda is research)
- After Ice's impromptu visit (poor Ice has the empty nest syndrome...) - some of his classmates gossiping: Did you hear that apparently the Iceman is gay? Bradley, with a fake pikachu face, even though he had literally helped Mav choose the engagement ring for Ice: Nah, not possible.
- Also, Bradley knowing that telling Jake would impress him so much but feeling absolutely physically ill whenever he thinks why and ending up not telling Jake for years (like, up until a dinner before graduation when Jake the Boyfriend gets asked to dinner and brings the Iceman a discounted pot plant that's half dying as the meet-the-parents gift and promptly has an anxiety attack on the front porch when Bradley does tell him)
- Bradley making elaborate excuses why Mav and Ice can't meet his academy friends when they're staying close to their home, to the point Mav starts thinking he's embarrassed by them
There was something else that I'm forgetting rn so might add more later

Iceman: why are there little handprints all over the walls?
Mav, whispering: why are there little handprints all over the walls?
Bradley, whispering: because I have little hands.
Maverick: because he has little hands

Thinking about supportive military parents icemav and Maverick insisting that their child(ren) use Kazansky as their last name instead of Mitchell or the hypheated Kazansky-Mitchell/Mitchell-Kazansky, 'cause he doesn't want them to miss out on opportunities like he did just because of his name...

Iceman: Well, how was the trip?
Rooster: I tell you, that Disney World hotel was just wonderful. It had everything. Good service, delicious food, a beautiful room.
Maverick: What did you think of the rides?
Rooster: ...They got rides?
Hangman: Don't worry about it.
Hangman: *winks* You had a great time and you never had to stand in line.
Rooster: *blushes hard*
Maverick and Iceman: *grimace*

Headcanon:
After the suicide mission and they all come back home safely and Bradley has made up with his dads, Maverick and Ice decide to renew their vows, because they've never had a close call such as this.
As a joke - but not really - Ice asks Maverick if there's anyone he could go to ask permission to marry him, even if he already went to Goose and Carole's graves to ask that very question when DADT was first repealed.
From where they're sitting on their couch, limbs intertwined and faces mere inches from each other, Maverick pulls away enough so that their noses brush and says, in all seriousness;
"Well, why don't we ask..."
"The kids?" they finish together.
It's all the approval they need.

I’m thinking of Ice in a meeting receiving a call of Mav and tell his fellow admirals that he HAS to take this call (his husband of course is more important than a meeting) and when Ice finally answers after going out of the meeting room, Mav starts to talk about his latest activity with Rooster and Ice just smiles. He’s just happy his husband and his kid are talking once again and are happy spending time together.
(When he goes back in the meeting he tells the other admirals that his husband hurt himself, but his smiles never fades for the next hours)

Hangman, like Mav, was always sent on suicide missions. However, unlike Mav, Hangman didn't have a guardian angel like Iceman or the other Flyboys who would have his back after Top Gun. And unlike Mav who had the Flyboys, Carole, and Bradley, Hangman didn't have anyone to look forward to after his deployment. He had Javy, but Javy would move on.
It would be better if he was the one who died. No one would mourn him. No one would miss him.
That changed with the dagger squad
Hangman got sent on a last minute mission where the Dagger Squad, and even Iceman were not informed until he was already flying in the air.
Once Maverick and Iceman reviews the details of the mission, their blood went cold once they both realized that the mission was unnecessary reckless, and dangerous. It was bad enough to be considered a suicide mission.
But it was too late to call off the mission, it was all up to Jake and his team now.
Mav and Ice spend their days worrying, especially with Ice burying himself in paperwork trying to figure out how this flew under his radar. The Dagger Squad notice their tenseness, but they weren't told what was going on because Mav and Ice didn't want to worry them.
During the mission, Hangman broke several rules and direct orders to save his colleagues and by extension, his life, and he got a dressing down immediately after landing his jet. He wasn't brought to the sick bay, he was immediately brought to the office for an extensive debrief, where all of Hangman's actions were scrutinized and judged. Hangman stayed calm.
Maverick and Iceman arrive because they were keeping tabs and come in while Hangman was getting yelled at. Maverick looks at Jake, taking note of his disheveled looks and tense jaw, and how behind his steely gaze was an undercurrent of deep exhaustion. Iceman noticed how the commanders were reaming into Jake for every single, little, thing, when it was a miracle that there was no casualties on their side. Jake's actions saved the mission that was destined to fail, and saved the lives of the other aviators.
Maverick and Iceman loses their shit.
How dare they not care about their aviator? How dare they recklessly send them to unnecessary suicide missions? How dare they act pissed at the aviator that save the mission and their lives?
---
Mav felt a hand on his shoulder, stopping his tirade at the Admiral in front of him. He turned and his glare softened once he realized it was Jake, unsteady on his feet, but gently holding him back.
"What is it, buddy? You can sit down, you don't have to keep on standing," Mav fretted as he tried to get Jake to sit down on the chair.
"It's okay, pops," Jake said giving a small smile. "I was the best choice for the mission, especially missions like this, it's better that they send me, instead of someone that has a family."
"No." Iceman simply said. "Don't say shit like that Lieutenant Jacob Seresin."
"But it's true--"
"Enough, Jacob, it is not true, and we will be discussing this later," Ice sternly said as he turned back towards the admirals. "No one should have been sent to a mission without enough preparation and analysis, and you shitheads barely did any. You made my aviator fly, blind. Your careers are done for."
"Come on Jake, let's get you to the sick bay, let Ice take care of this, okay?" Mav said forcefully leading Jake out of the room to get the care he needs.
---
(Once Jake gets back stateside and the rest of the Dagger Squad finds out what happened, he gets showered by affection from all of them proving that he has been missed and he will be missed.)

If (the original Top Gun happened in modern times and) Ice and Mav were together when Mav started parenting Bradley after Carole passed away, Ice would definitely be the parent who takes time off to take care of his kid when he's sick
Even if Mav pointed out to him Bradley's already a teenager and could definitely take care of himself when sick.
Even if Bradley pointed out he's already a teenager and could definitely take care of himself when sick.
Or the uncomfortable truth of Ice and Mav as parents - Ice is the cool one (the one that gives in very, very easily) and Mav is the strict one (the one that actually makes and executes the rules he sets).

Icemav as Modern Family Quotes Pt. 11
Maverick (about Rooster): Well, there's book smart and then there's street smart. Ice: Yeah, and then there's Bradley. Maverick: Well he's just- he's curious, that's all. He's got this almost scientific mind, a thirst for knowledge. He's like this little Einstein. Maverick: Some people ask 'Why?', Bradley askes, 'Why not?' Ice: I ask why a lot.

[At breakfast]
Iceman: How did the date go?
Maverick: I bet Hangman was really enjoying his time with you.
Rooster: *frowns* He wouldn't even kiss me.
Maverick: Nice boys don't kiss on the first date, Bradley. Ice wouldn't kiss me until our third date.
Iceman: ...
Maverick: It made the s*x on the first two dates very impersonal.
Iceman: *chokes on his coffee*
Rooster: *stares at Mav in shock*

In a kinder world, Iceman lived and was only rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. In a gentler world, a high as fuck Iceman then wants updates on his wingman and chickadee, and he will bother everyone until he gets one goddammit, medical leave or not.
