#this is also part of the angsty Nepo!Baby Bradley fic...
Text
Mav (and Ice to a lesser extent) would be far harder on Bradley than they would be on any other kid/adult.
They see Bradley and compare him to themselves, forgetting that they're fully grown adults (debatable in Mav's case) and have YEARS of experience and training on Bradley.
They know what Bradley is capable of, and when he's half-assing it, so they're always pushing him to be better.
Also some of their personal drive for Bradley to BE BETTER is because they know being better will keep him safer. Not safe, but safer. (Being a parent is terrifying when your kid isn't doing a risky job, let alone when they are).
They don't really get it until some of their friends are complimenting them on Bradley's knowledge and skills and they're like 'great! we didn't fuck up!' but then one or the other makes a passing comment and someone (Slider?) just makes a 'what the fuck?' face and asks them outright that if they were looking at any other new recruit, would they be impressed. And they answer that yes, of course they would be.
And then they realise that actually maybe they have fucked up. Bradley knows he's loved, but he doesn't know that they're so immensely proud of him.

What to write weekend...?
Same time, same place... Let's get this writing started. If your curious about wordcounts etc. I have a spreadsheet here.
Explanation on how "What to Write Weekend" works and fic descriptions under the read more because it's long... Once you know you know though.
NUMBERS:
Sagas of Solitude 8/? - IceMav with side Hangster AU - angsty Nepo!Baby
Season to Taste 0/? - Professional and Famous Chef Bradley and Naval Aviator Jake Seresin. (Building on this).
CURRENT LETTERS:
A, B, C, D, E, H, I, J, K, L, M
--- --- --- --- --- ---
If you need it, here's an explanation of how it works:
You pick 1-3 of the above and either:
reply
Message
Send an ask (Anon is on)
with the letters/Numbers of the fic/s you wish would hurry up and get finished/posted already. (Yes, you can pick the same one three times - some of these fics are that close to getting parts/chapters finished that would be enough to tip them over, you also don't have to pick more than one).
--- --- --- --- --- ---
I WILL WRITE AT LEAST 250 WORDS for each one you pick. I reply to let you know when it is done. I've also started tracking it in a spreadsheet.
--- --- --- --- --- ---
Numbers indicate fics I am consciously working on updating/completing, and likely have a completion date in mind.
Letters are fics that are often getting completed because people ask for me to work on them through things like this. (I usually do this every weekend).
Doing this keeps me on task and makes me accountable. It stops me from procrastinating and I really appreciate people providing their numbers.
THANK YOU!
--- --- --- --- --- ---
A) Upon which our souls touch - 3/? - Hangster TGM AU involving dragon riders and shape shifters and fantasy... Seriously, I wouldn't vote for this one because my kids ask about it almost daily so... it gets attention regardless.
B) I'd know you anywhere 2/4?- Bradshaw Twins - Hangster (Tumblr post)
C) To wake, perchance to dream - 3/? - Hangster Jake wakes up in the future, gets a glimpse of what their life could be and then wakes up back right before being called back to Top Gun for the special detachment (e.g. TGM). (Tumblr post and the beginning of the fic)
D) Together or not at all... (SEQUEL) - Hangster - years after Javy/Nat get together they think their best friends (Hangman and Rooster) could maybe try dating each other. It'll either end in disaster or not.
E) Cyclone/Maverick - Cyclone is struggling to deal with being attracted to the most annoying person he's ever met. Why does he like him so much?
H) From the top - 1/? - an Ice/Mav epistolary fic where Jake and Bradley matchmake them, not realising exactly who it is they've matched together.
I) Life is too short to waste time matching socks... 3/? The peach and eggplant socks as an anonymous gift as an incredibly unsubtle hint that someone would like to fuck them. (tumblr idea unspooling here...)
J) Barista Jake who cannot spell Bradley's name. (HERE)
K) Caring, Keeping and Collecting Transformers - A Guide - 5/?Transformers cross-over.
L) Hangster Soulmates, Bodyguard (leftover from the Bingo...)
M) IceMav Florist/Undercover Agent AU (also leftover from Bingo)

What to write weekend...?
Friday afternoon again, start of my weekend (although, I schedule this post, so I am usually still working when this appears). I've got my usual adulthood stuff happening over on main.

NUMBERS:
Online and Anonymous - 7/16 Hangster who are anonymous Grindr buddies for YEARS. (Tumblr post)
Sagas of Solitude 5/? - IceMav with side Hangster AU - angsty Nepo!Baby
CURRENT LETTERS:
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K... Bingo #1, Bingo #2
A) Where do I know you from? There are too many Jakes and Bradleys for Jake and Bradley to be dealing with. (Tumblr idea unspooling here...)
B) Bradshaw Twins - Hangster (Tumblr post)
C) To wake, perchance to dream - Jake wakes up in the future, gets a glimpse of what their life could be and then wakes up back right before being called back to Top Gun for the special detachment (e.g. TGM). (Tumblr post and the beginning of the fic)
D) Together or not at all... (SEQUEL) - Hangster - years after Javy/Nat get together they think their best friends (Hangman and Rooster) could maybe try dating each other. It'll either end in disaster or not.
E) Cyclone/Maverick - Cyclone is struggling to deal with being attracted to the most annoying person he's ever met. Why does he like him so much?
F) Hangster twins - quick-fic with version two from here: (Tumblr post)
G) Celebrity Chef Bradley
H) Getting to know you from the beginning - an Ice/Mav epistolary fic where Jake and Bradley matchmake them, not realising exactly who it is they've matched together.
I) Life is too short to waste time matching socks... 3/? The peach and eggplant socks as an anonymous gift as an incredibly unsubtle hint that someone would like to fuck them. (tumblr idea unspooling here...)
J) Barista Jake who cannot spell Bradley's name. (HERE)
K) Caring, Keeping and Collecting Transformers - A Guide - Transformers cross-over for help me yeagrave is 110% to blame for me adding this... (related to this post) (Prologue)

You pick 1-3 of the above and either:
reply
Message
Send an ask (Anon is on)
with the letters/Numbers of the fic/s you wish would hurry up and get finished/posted already. (Yes, you can pick the same one three times - some of these fics are that close to getting parts/chapters finished that would be enough to tip them over, you also don't have to pick more than one).

THANK YOU!
I am going to make a prediction that people will want "Online and Anonymous" and "Where Do I know you from?" more than any other of the other fics...

It's nowhere near as interesting or fun as deciding what fics people would like me to dedicate some words towards them this weekend.
I do have to work this Saturday, also my kids are leaving for 8 days away to stay with family, so my Saturday is pretty much a write-off, but I need to have something to aim for.
NUMBERS:
Online and Anonymous - 13/16 Hangster who are anonymous Grindr buddies for YEARS. (Tumblr post)
Sagas of Solitude 5/? - IceMav with side Hangster AU - angsty Nepo!Baby
CURRENT LETTERS:
A, B, C, D, E, G, H, I, J, K, L, M (descriptions under the Read More)
If your curious about wordcounts etc. I have a spreadsheet here.

Those of you that know I put stuff down here, or follow me on my main, know that I've been in a weird place mentally the last couple of weeks, seem to be coming out of it. Getting things done at work and around the house are helping.
Personal writing goals for the weekend:
Finish my Secret Santa piece (which I really don't like, my first and last fest piece, I swear - it's like drawing blood from a stone and one definitey one of the reasons why I've been in a funk writing wise).
Online and Anonymous Chapter posted!
250 words on each of my Glee WIPs, poor neglected things that they are.

I've also got three other fics which have been ticking at my brain, so who knows... I won't work on them until I bring this list back under control I think. Maybe. Hopefully. Who knows anymore? Certainly not me... Some of these need to start being shorter one-shots at some point right?
