Summary
Gaze wandering to the P-51 once again, drawn to the little plane like a moth to a flame. Pacing around it, putting a hand on it’s side.
“Well, aren’t you the prettiest damn thing, sweetheart?”
Because who was to know that Pete had started talking to the planes because Goose did? Emulating his brother in all but blood, taking confidence in a somewhat odd habit through the ensuing years.
Not noticing the tacky red fingerprints he left on the yellow paint as he hummed a nameless tune, pacing the plane’s perimeter, gauging what whoever owned the plane was up to. Peering into the opened belly of the plane to see the parts missing from the engine, standing on his tiptoes to see from another angle.
Only to be startled by the sound of something shattering behind him.

Summary
"Fucking roofie my friend and then start a goddamn fight with me? Oh hell no, fuck that shit. I gave as good as I got, if not better. I know I split that douchebag’s lip and I bet he’s got a brutal shiner too. A head taller than me and forty pounds heavier, my ass.”
Ron muttered, “Maya, language…” but she gave her uncles a hard smile. “The police officer asked me where I learned to fight like that.”
Her eyes went to the one uncle who’d remained hovering at the foot of the bed, hands clasped behind his back. “Thanks, Uncle Pete.”Brothers, Chapter 4
Maverick teaches hand to hand combat to his beloved Fireball, Frost, Valkyrie and Xin-ai.

Summary
The truth is that Maverick has always cared too much about the things people say. The truth is that he’s spent his whole life trying to outrun his father’s legacy, and sometimes he stumbles and the rest of the world catches up to him, and it hurts when they get close enough for him to hear the awful things that come out of their mouths.
The truth is that Maverick learned from a very young age that sometimes the only way to survive is to hit first and make it count.
OR
Maverick knows pain. Hell, it's the only thing he's good at besides flying a plane. He just doesn't know how much longer Goose can bear it with him before it starts to break them apart.
He doesn't know how long he can stand Iceman staring at him before he starts to wonder exactly what it is the other aviator is actually seeing buried under Maverick's skin.
OR
The mortifying ordeal of being known.

Summary
A word that everyone would happily use to describe Pete “Maverick” Mitchell was “unpredictable”. Now, “dangerous” naturally came in close second, but the danger comes from being unpredictable. So it wasn’t a surprise when it was revealed that even his heats would be unpredictable too.
His heats never had a definitive schedule ever since he presented. It would present at random. Mav had to take suppressants every day because being an omega while dreaming of being in the military was a death sentence and was also a subject of ridicule. So, Mav was glad that due to him bouncing from one family to the next—and the shit foster system—his real secondary gender was not known to the public.
They only knew that “Pete Mitchell” was a beta who was very sensitive to smell. For years, Mav was able to keep it under wraps.
But there were three times when his unfortunate heat breaks through.

Summary
Maverick didn’t know how exactly he’d ended up here, gravel and broken glass pushing through the knees of his jeans. It probably should have concerned him, the gaping, dark hole in his recent memory. Maybe it would later. If he’d get a later that is. All things considered, it could go either way.
The next bottle shattered right in front of him, the spray of green glass and dregs hit him a split second before the raucous howl of drunken cheers.

Summary
“Did you need something?” The blond shouts this time, exaggeratedly slow, his arms crossed. His voice is low and bored, like he’s already disappointed by their presence and them breathing his air.
Pete leans back against his solid, molded backrest and nods toward the stairs. “A ramp would be nice.”
The blond shrugs, dismissive. “We don’t have one.”
“No kidding, I thought it was just invisible or a myth — the way you must think the ADA is.”
(Or, Pete’s a good dad, a wheelchair user and inaccessibility gets him two hot men in his bed — go figure).
