"Gravity"
A Jake "Hangman" Seresin Fanfic.
They say gravity keeps you grounded.
But what happens when it pulls you into something you're not ready for?
She came to Top Gun a mystery-sharp in the sky, silent on the ground.
He was the one pilot who couldn't stop watching her.
Lieutenant Ava "Nova" Brooke doesn't talk about where she came from-or what she left behind. She flies with precision, speaks with restraint, and keeps her heart locked behind steel walls. But Jake "Hangman" Seresin has always been drawn to the dangerous, and Nova is no exception.
As tension crackles beneath the surface, what starts as subtle glances and shared airspace becomes something neither of them can ignore. But secrets have a way of surfacing, and Nova's past is more than Jake ever expected-more than any of them are ready for.
When duty calls and everything hangs in the balance, one truth remains:
Falling isn't always the most dangerous part.
It's what comes after.

An Abrupt Change of Direction
Pete "Maverick" Mitchell has lost a lot over the years: his best friend, his wife, and the sudden risk of losing his career. After over thirty years of service as a top naval aviator, Maverick has found himself face-to-face with ghosts as he returns to TOPGUN to help train a new and upcoming group of graduates. Amongst rivalries and competition, Maverick must call in reinforcements, Maverick's daughter, Maddlyn Mitchell, with a dark past of her own. Their biggest trial was not the awkwardness between Maverick and Lieutenant Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw, or trying to get the new trainees to behave like a team. It actually came from the tension caused by Lieutenant Jake "Hangman" Seresin. Lieutenant Jake "Hangman" Seresin has a reputation for being unstoppable. He's always been the top pilot, so when this new trainer dismissed him, he had to prove her wrong. That is, until he makes a mistake that would change his life and Maddlyn's life forever. It soon became clear that the very mistake Maddlyn warned him he'd make came a lot sooner than he was prepared for. And she would have to pay the consequences for it. *This is a slight rewrite of my story, "Baby Mav". I have given myself permission to use the previous story and change it. ;)Complete
