@shirubie Ooh I like it!

Thunderfam, what's an obscure ship you have that you can't really explain?

I'll go first.

Remember Kate from Grandma Tourismo?

This girl:

She's sweet and resourceful and instantly makes friends with Grandma Tracy. And she runs a hat shop in the desert.

Well, the ship in question is her and Virgil.

Even though, despite being in the same episode they don't interact at all.

But, my twelve year old brain thought it was an excellent idea so now you may pry Kate x Virgil from my cold dead hands.

Top Gun Headcanons #1

Jake is from a relatively rich family but, far from being handed everything, his parents were (and still are) very dismissive of his aspirations to be a fighter pilot, even though he's now easily one of the best naval aviators in the country.

(somewhere in the Navy...)

Iceman: MAVERICK!!!!!!

*Ice is causally taking a quiet walk one evening when suddenly two drunk people run past, yelling and chasing a raccoon, pursued by security*

Ice: Not my circus, not my monkeys...

*realising it was Maverick and Slider*

Ice: *running after them* My circus, my monkeys, my circus, my monkeys...

Oh there is definitely ice-cream!

Favourite Flavours:

Scott - Double chocolate.

Virg - Salted caramel.

John - He likes bubblegum ice cream, even though everyone else hates it.

Gordo - He will eat anything but his favourite is Ben and Jerry's Phish Food (duh!).

Allie - Chocolate ice cream and he always puts loads of sauce and marshmallows and sprinkles on it.

Kayo - Something a little bit out left field, like cherry, or cinnamon.

Who stocks the ice cream?

Virgil.

Who drowns their sorrows in ice cream?

Scott and Alan.

They've all probably done it at least once, though.

Who hates ice cream?

No-one hates ice cream. But, Grandma Tracy does hold something of a contempt for it, due to all the times her boys have turned to ice cream as a replacement for her terrible cooking.

Other ice cream shenanigans:

Sometimes John deliberately gives Virgil mint choc chip ice cream, because it's green, just to be annoying. It's not that Virg doesn't like mint, it's just wHy jOhN?

One year, for his birthday, Gordon made Alan a massive bowl of ice cream with, like the biggest pile of extra whipped cream and marshmallows and sweets and sprinkles and chocolate sauce that you have ever seen. It was the best birthday present ever.

Question of the day

Tracy brothers and ice cream.

Favourite flavours?

Who stocks the ice cream?

Who hates ice cream?

Ice cream memories?

Does ice cream play a role in the Tracy household?

Mav: Would you punch your best friend in the face for $100?

Ice: I would punch you in the face for free.

Mav: *tearing up* I'm your best friend..?

OK BUT YOU JUST COMBINED MY TWO FAVOURITE THINGS IN THE WORLD LIKE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
