BIOGRAPHY:

Thalia’s parents met through their love of the stars. Her father, Sirius, a Luytan, was studying the constellations in Australia. As it happened, her mother, Mia, ran the observatory in Alice Springs, where her father was staying. It took some time for Lyra to warm up to the infatuated Michael, but after two years of persistence, the two had become almost inseparable. However, with the rising tension between species, Thalia’s parents had to keep their relationship a secret. They married in secret , with only a few close friends as witnesses, and promised each other that they wouldn’t have any children. That promise didn’t last long. Five years later, Lyra gave birth to a baby girl- Thalia. At first, Thalia’s parents tried to keep her a secret, but that didn’t last long either. Thalia proved herself to be an adventurous girl almost right away. Her parents had to keep a constant watch over her, as she had a tendency to wander out of the house at a moment’s notice.

As she got older, her curiosity was turned towards books, and she absorbed as many as she could. Her adventurous nature also had a habit of getting her into trouble, especially at school. Teachers often reported her as asking too many questions or daydreaming during class. Thalia did her best to fit in, but it wasn’t long before people found out about her parentage. For the most part, the other children at school avoided her at best or teased her at worst. But outside the classroom, Thalia flourished. Her father began tutoring her after class and on the weekend, and Thalia absorbed it all. Her mother also had a hand in her education; in addition to running the observatory, he was also in charge of the reservation it was on. In her spare time, Thalia would spend hours with her mother as he taught her about the plants and animals that lived there. On occasion, she would even accompany him on week-long trips across the reservation, where she learned about everything from poisonous plants to finding water in the desert.

Although Thalia was considered an outcast by most humans and Luytans, there were still a few places she could find herself at home. When she was 12, Thalia discovered a small art studio on the edge of the city. The few resident artists there didn’t care who Thalia was or where she came from, only that she needed somewhere to be herself. Thalia quickly took a shine to art, and the artists were only too happy to teach her what they knew. In particular, she liked to sit outside at night and paint the night sky, the very thing that had brought her parents and her species together. When she wasn’t painting, Thalia spent her time at her mother’s observatory. Most evenings, she’d do her homework while her father graphed star charts and taught her about the cosmos.

Despite her efforts to keep her small bit of peace, tensions from the rest of the world were slowly creeping in. In high school, the tensions between species soared, and often Thalia found herself caught in the crossfire between Luytans and humans. Finally the tension snapped. The confrontations at Thalia’s school became physical, and more than a few Luytans were reporting threats- or worse. Thalia’s parents weren’t overlooked either. They started getting threats in the mail and vandalism on the house. Someone even went so far as to damage one of the observatory telescopes. After what seemed like months of conflict, a conference was called in America to settle things. Thalia’s father was called in as an engineer and astronomer. Not wanting to stay in Alice Springs, Thalia decided to graduate early and follow her father as a college student.  Along with her studies, she quickly found herself working as an interpreter at the conference for those who didn’t want a translator for one reason or another. In her free time, Thalia still paints; these days, it’s the only thing that distracts her from the chaos outside.

MUSING + HEAD-CANONS.

HEAD-CANONS:

Since she’s got a mix of genes, Thalia has the best- and worst- of both worlds. She’s creative and incredibly intelligent, but her Luytan heritage has messed with her sight. Like her father, she has no peripheral vision and poor night vision, although it was discovered that taking daily supplements somewhat improved this. In addition, she inherited her mother’s poor eyesight. When she was younger, she had to wear thick glasses in order to see, although now she gets by with contact lenses.

Thalia has a strong passion for the fine arts, especially painting. However, she is completely tone deaf and can’t play an instrument to save her life.

Because Thalia grew up speaking two languages, Luytan and English, as well as mastering a host of others, she sometimes gets confused. Often this results in her forgetting a word in one language and remembering it in a different one, or transferring the grammar from one language to another

Officially, Thalia is fluent in English, Luytan, French, and Centurian. She is considered proficient in Mandarin, Arabic, Russian, Spanish, and Tau Cetian, and is conversational in half a dozen others

Thalia has a tattoo on her lower right back of the sun and moon, surrounded by stars

PLOTS + CONNECTIONS:

Plots

Finding home; Thalia is torn between her place as a Luytan and her place as a human. As the talks continue, more and more pressure is building to pick a side, and sooner or later she has to choose.

Beyond the stars; as a college student, Thalia is studying the fine arts. However, both her parents and her professors are encouraging her to explore her other options. According to them, she has potential as an interpreter or a linguist, or she could follow in her father’s footsteps and explore the rest of the universe.

Connections

Muse; Since she started her art lessons, Thalia has found herself working with one person ove and over again, either just side by side or on collaborative projects. The two have developed a sort of quiet friendship, and often open up to each other while they work

Break Room Allies; at the conference, things can sometimes get a little hectic. When she can’t take it anymore, Thalia escapes to the break room- and she’s not the only one. Together, they share complaints about the officers, funny stories, and whatever unlabled leftovers they can find in the fridge

Lone wolves; of course Thalia has friends, but she’s never found someone who knew what it felt like to be torn between two places. That is, until she ran into someone who understood exactly what she meant. The two often meet up for lunch or after work to vent and exchange whatever advice they can

Runners; While on a run one day soon after she arrived, Thalia realized she was lost. Fortunately, someone offered to show her the way back to her apartment. Soon after, they ran into each other again, and it didn’t take them long to realize that they ran the same route. Before long, they were meeting up most days to run their route together.

Someone stop me from writing a one shot where the Dagger Squad + my OCs have a swing dance competition

[iliketopgun]

I listened to nearly all of the 3 pitch perfect soundtracks recently and here's the idea I got before falling asleep

The daggers having acapella groups

The girls- The Flying Bellas (like the Barden Bellas, Lyra and Cassidy came up with it)

The boys- The Flyboys (Maverick did it)

[iliketopgun]

An AU where the dagger boys really piss off the dagger girls

[iliketopgun]

Chaos: BRADSHAW GET IN HERE!!!

Rooster rushing in: what is it?

Chaos turning around with a baby in her arms: I want one

Rooster: *faints*

[iliketopgun]

Hayley giggling: Hey babe.

Jake: Yeah?

Hayley with a shit eating grin: How do you make holy water?

Jake: A priest blessing water?

Hayley: No, you boil the hell out of it!

Jake deadpan: Why the hell did I marry you?

Hayley: 'Cause I'm pretty and I'm fun!

Jake: Yeah, you are.

------Bob and Sam-----

Samantha watching the Hunger Games with Bob who has never seen it: I hope you like it.

Bob: Huh that's a cool pin!

Samantha, losing it not remembering this part from her last rewatching: NOT BOOK ACCURATE!

Bob, spilling popcorn everywhere: Wait what?

Samantha, without missing a beat: She didn't get it from her in the books, she got it from the mayor's daughter.

Bob, oh so confused: Oh hmmm.

-----Mickey and Cassidy-----

Cassidy listening to music home alone while making food: I think there's poison in those fingertips of yours.

Mickey, coming in: Hey babe!

Cassidy, dropping her spoon in shock: You saw nothing!

Mickey: Sure honey!

-----Lyra and Bradley-----

Lyra, sitting on the front porch reading: Who's fucking car is that?

Bradley pulling up in a minivan: Hey babe!

Lyra: WHAT DID YOU DO?!

Bradley: I got a minivan so we can get a move on with having kids!

Lyra jokingly: BRADLEY NICHOLAS BRADSHAW! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!

Bradley: Oh shit!

-----Madison and Javy-----

Madison walking in from work: Javy?

Javy holding his niece: Hey sweetheart.

Madison turning around: Whose baby is that?

Javy sheepishly: My sister's.

Madison smiling: I've had to take care of sick babies all day how about a healthy one.

[iliketopgun]

Lyra: You know those things will kill you, right?

Hayley pouring another glass of whiskey: That’s the point.

Cassidy smoking a cigarette: We’re trying to speed up the process.

Samantha : *Nods while eating raw cookie dough*

Synopsis: an AU where Jake and Hayley are married during the Uranium mission but not a lot of people know because Hayley uses her maiden last name still

Characters and pairings: Hayley "Mockingbird" Prescott/Hayley "Mockingbird" Seresin + Jake "Hangman" Seresin. Lyra "Chaos" Mitchell + Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw (they're flirting), Madison Machado + Javy "Coyote" Machado. Natasha "Phoenix" Trace

Despite the majority of them being pilots with a keen eye for details, Phoenix and Rooster couldn't believe that the girl that Hangman came in with was his wife. Hangman? With a wife? Let's backtrack shall we?

Hayley "Mockingbird" Seresin neé Prescott, one of two Texan pilots selected for the top secret mission at TOPGUN walked into the bar and looked around before ordering a beer and then walking around sipping it before spotting her husband, Jake "Hangman" Seresin playing pool and walks over and admires his ass. "Nice ass you got there." Hayley says, her wedding band and her engagement ring make a clinking sound against the glass bottle. "Haha, very nice honey." Jake says before standing up and pecking her cheek and grabbing her ass in retaliation and Rooster and Phoenix spot this and share a look "Does Bagman have a girlfriend?" Rooster asks Phoenix "No, they're probably engaged, she's got a ring on her finger" Phoenix says before Lyra walks over "Nah, they're married, see Bagman has a ring on his finger too." Lyra says and walks off before Phoenix walks over "Bagman, who's this lovely lady?" Phoenix asks making Madison Machado and Javy "Coyote" Machado chuckle, they were one of the few who knew Hayley and Jake were married. "Phoenix, this is my wife, Hayley "Mockingbird" Seresin." Jake says smugly "Hi, nice to meet you." Hayley says in her Texan accent that was thick and extends her hand for a handshake.

The end!

Damn him

A/N: cursing, repetitive word use, basically this idea came to me in Social Studies also first time posting on my laptop!

taglist (people I really want to see this): @eternalsams @ma1dita

Damn him with his brown hair, with his stupid blue eyes, and his damn ability to make her laugh. Damn him with that mustache, that friggin mouth of his that made her smile and made her giggle. Damn his hands that held hers and played with her hair. Damn Bradley Bradshaw and his ability to make Lyra Mitchell melt like ice in the sun. Lyra hated him for knowing how she liked her coffee and beer. She hated the fact she might mess up her friendship with Cassidy, Loyal, kind, and smart Cassidy, the closest thing Lyra ever had to a sister. How if she and Bradley didn't work, she could lose her WSO and worse of all her best friend. She hated him for messing up her life with his damn beauty and personality. Damn him for being the one she had loved since 8th grade, she realized with that beer in her hand, that every guy she had ever dated had either looked, acted, or reminded her of Bradley, she thought she had gotten over him but she hadn't. Damn him with his blue Bronco, with his stupid aviator sunglasses, with his musical ability. Damn him. Damn, Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw and his ability to make her melt. Damn him for making her love him by just existing.

What I associate some of my Top Gun OCS with

Cassidy is violets, old records on a light blue Victrola record player, soft pink lipstick, blueberries, being a twin, sharing your room with a girl who is your sister by heart and not by blood, losing both parents by age 18, you and your brother growing apart but being right back to laughing and teasing immediately, being a WSO, people who knew Maverick and Goose groaning at you and your pilot because y'all are them reincarnated, cheerleading and student council in high school.

Hayley is forget me nots, horses, hats, red lipstick, sharing a room with your sisters, having a mockingbird as a pet, having the cutest southern accent, being to outdrink most of your friends, small tattoos of flowers and family/sentimental stuff, doing cheerleading in high school.

Jenna is daffodils, coffee over tea, being clumsy, thinking you can handle your liquor but can't, favorite movie being Dirty Dancing, growing up in butt fuck nowhere, typical tomboy, likes to play on swing sets, keeps a window garden, can hotwire a car, owning a lipstick taser.
