    Summary

    Goose has been dead for a week and a half when Iceman loses his first wingman in a dogfight with six Soviet MiGs over the Sea of Okhotsk.

    Goose has been dead for thirty years when Iceman loses his second wingman to a surface-to-air missile on the tail-end of a mission he's responsible for: he's sent his family on a suicide mission to destroy a uranium enrichment facility in Russia's Far East.

    This is the story of those thirty years in the middle.

    (Or: Tom Kazansky rises through the ranks while trying to stay a good man. If he ever was one to begin with.)

    [Final edit 2/4/23. See Ch. 1 notes for major changes.]

    Summary

    Maverick figures it out on the Enterprise, sweat-soaked and high on adrenaline. Their skin brushes and it's fire in his veins, like sunlight, like a beacon in the night, and every neon sign points to—

    Iceman figures it out much earlier than that.

    Or; Maverick and Iceman are soulmates. They work it out.

    Summary

    It's apparent to Bruce almost immediately that his time at the 15th Annual Gotham-Metropolis An Evening of Giving Charity Gala won't be wasted.

    (Or: Bruce wears fishnets, for purely strategic reasons. Clark finds out. They bang about it, and also manage to figure out they're in love with each other, despite their own best efforts.)

    Summary

    “Hannibal.” Alana says, her voice breaking on his name. It brings his attention back to her, and now he finds grief so powerful it hits him right against his ribcage. “Hannibal… It’s been days. I don’t think they’re going to find Will’s…” She pauses to swallow against the tears. “You didn’t kill him. I know you didn’t. But I don’t think he’s alive.”

    “Will Graham is resilient.” He bites back, though the first strings of doubt are starting to creep across his senses, no matter how hard he tries to push them down. He looks away, not wanting to see her heartbroken expression. “He is resourceful and clever, and stronger than you believe.”

    There’s another pregnant pause before she speaks again. “You were a psychiatrist, Hannibal. You know what the stages of grief are. You’re in denial.”
    _________________
    Hannibal wakes up in the hospital after the fall and finds out that Will has disappeared, and is thought to be dead. Hannibal knows better though, he knows Will is alive. He isn't grieving. He just... isn't.
