I decided to do something different for once.
How do you guys feel about Mission: impossible because it's going to happen at some point but I want your guy's opinion but anywho more things
Headcanons i have for the Top Gun Crew because i’m obsessed ✌️✌️
Writers note: I just watched Top Gun last night and OMG I LOVED IT SO MUCH- Iceman and Rooster >>>>>
Goose once saw a goose and was like “Mav it’s me!!”
The goose then proceeded to attack Goose.
Maverick was laughing his butt off and asking him “Why are you chasing yourself?!”
Iceman cannot stand the heat.
Ok he can stand it but hates it. His house is like a bloody igloo.
Slider got his callsign because he has slid/walked into a sliding door on multiple occasions.
Goose is a very creative person.
Goose doodles in his free time, sometimes instead of writing notes he just doodles.
Slider likes to slide around while wearing socks.
Iceman has recorded him slipping so many times. (If Mav and Goose find it Slider’s done)
Slider is kinda protective of Iceman. (like cmon, the “thats mr Iceman to you” bro Iceman prolly doesn’t care)
Wolfman used to have a mullet/wolf cut.
Jester is hilarious asf, especially when he’s drunk. Man will become a top tier comedian after two drinks.
Merlin likes reading fantasy books.
I know its not art, but here is my contribution rant to the Russian!Ice HC:
His Name; So normally just naming your kid 'Tom', as an American, even now, is pretty unusual- its mostly Thomas that then gets shortened into 'Tom' or another nickname. HOWEVER, in Russia there is a name Toma, Toma traditionally (from my family's regional background atleast) it means 'twin', which would also push for the Sarah Kazansky is Ice's sibling HC as well.
During the immigration process, especially during the 80s or before, many times due to not having immediate translation available, names were translated based on sound. For example: My grandfather who immigrated in the 70s has a different spelling for his last name than my great-uncle who immigrated at the same time, so things like this happening in immigration offices isnt inaccurate
Therefore; its perfectly realistic that at an immigration office, when Ice said his name was Toma, based on the regional dialect, it could have easily sounded like Tom, hence his full name being 'Tom' (with Sarah's being the equivalent to Sasha, or even a more Russian pronunciation of 'Sara')
Not only that, but the Russian origin could explain why he appears so standoffish, and a little out of the social loop- with Slider acting as some sort of protector. They would have been in the height of the Cold War with rising tensions, so of course Ice would've wanted to hide that portion of him, but America is also a HUGE culture shock to even some Americans. So you have Ice who is attempting to assimilate, but still doesn't understand to the fullest, and English is hard, so it makes sense for Sliders protectiveness/defense and Ice's distant social ability.
His Call Sign; so we know Ice got his Call Sign due to being an 'iceman' up in the air, and while this is true for some pilots, if Ice is from Russia, the most likely chance is he is trying to remember how to actually fly the plane/jet, because American aviators and Russian aviators don't learn on the same aircraft, they're notably different- ESPECIALLY in the 80s- so his 'ice cold' persona in the air could most likely be him concentrating to the best of his ability to keep both him and his RIO alive.
Plus, the last name 'Kazansky' is incredibly popular in Russia, so even if Ice isnt from Russia himself it isnt inaccurate to say that he had Russian/Slavic ancestry
( Ice teaching Baby!Bradley Russian when watching him and Bradley remembering/becoming slightly fluent- can understand perfectly has trouble speaking- because kids pick up languages like sponges to water)
(Ice telling Mav how much he loves him in Russian)
(Ice making delicious traditional Russian/Slavic food for him, Mav, and Bradley)
If I missed any please let me know!
