Here are some more specific thoughts on my various requests. (Some of this might just be a repeat of what I put on the official sign-up form)
Top Gun
Javy "Coyote" Machado/Jake "Hangman" Seresin
Javy is the one person who seems willing to put up with Jake's bullshit no matter what. They have such "ride or die" friendship/relationship vibes to me. I think Javy is one of the few people who gets to see a softer, more vulnerable side of Jake, and that's something he takes very seriously.
Robert "Bob" Floyd/Mickey "Fanboy" Garcia
These two don't have a lot of screen time together, but they seem to bond quickly during the bar scene. They also have the backseater solidarity thing going on, and they both hide an incredible amount of sass behind their sweet baby-faced demeanors. If they've already started having a little fling before the birdstrike, lots of great potential for hurt/comfort there. Or, the adrenaline rush/relief of flying the mission and everyone making it home safely could be what they need to tip them over the edge into a relationship.
Reuben "Payback" Fitch/Mickey "Fanboy" Garcia (TG Movies)
The "pilot/backseater who are also lovers" dynamic is a great one. They've clearly been working together awhile when they show up for the mission. Are they already in a relationship, or does the mission bring them just that little bit closer together? Has one been pining over the other, not realizing it's reciprocated? Does Phoenix lock them in a closet until they get their shit together? So many possibilities.
Top Gun RPF
Lewis Pullman/Danny Ramirez
They're best friends! They both seem like sweet innocent boys, but also I feel like they're always up to something. Preferably, each other.
Tom Cruise/Christopher McQuarrie
I just love them. They're best friends, they're partners, they're family. I'm happy for any era of their relationship to be explored, from the early days of just getting to know each other, all the way up to them basically living in each other pockets and being a package deal.
Tom Cruise/Glen Powell/Greg "Tarzan" Davis
Tom Cruise/Greg "Tarzan" Davis
Tom Cruise/Greg "Tarzan" Davis/Christopher McQuarrie
Lumping these together, because they're all in a similar vein for me, and I would be happy with any iteration of them. Tom and McQ hand-picked Tarzan to go on to be in Mission: Impossible with them, and seem completely enamored with him (as is he with them). There's also the fact that Glen is clearly in love with Tom, and also still very good friends with Tarzan, and I think that could be interesting to explore.
Artful Dodger
Jack "Dodger" Dawkins/Norbert Fagin
These two have such a messy history, with a healthy dose of animosity mixed in with mutual love and respect. There's so much inbetween time from the last time they saw each other to the present day of the show to explore.
Mad Men
Don Draper/Roger Sterling
Two men with unending daddy issues who spend almost all their time drinking together, and (in Don's case), trying to get and keep Roger's approval? I just feel like there's a lot of potential for some late night confessions that lead to late night touching.
Mission: Impossible
Briggs/Degas
They just have the perfect buddy cop vibe. Briggs is constantly blasting his way through things, and Degas is constantly heavily sighing and following in his wake. I feel like they both have a lot of baggage, but are also deeply dedicated to their job/cause, just with differing takes on what that really means
Dune (Movies - Villeneuve)
Stilgar Ben Fifrawi/Gurney Halleck
I just love two old men who have very different outlooks/philosophies on life but come to a begrudging acceptance and appreciation for each other.
The Black Dahlia (2006)
Lee Blanchard/Dwight "Bucky" Bleichert
I just rewatched this movie, and I was shocked that there is NO fic for it on Ao3 whatsoever. Lee and Bucky are so clearly in love, but also so incredibly at odds with each other throughout the whole film. It's fine if Lee's death is included or mentioned, but I'd prefer something set during their relationship while they're both still alive.
Crossovers
Jack (Legend 1985)/Dickon (The Secret Garden 1993)
They're both empathetic, nature-loving souls with a pureness of spirit, and I just think it would be so interesting to see them interact. Maybe Dickon finds another gate in the garden that leads him to the world of Legend? Maybe Jack somehow finds himself in the Yorkshire moors? I'd prefer something G-Teen rated for these two.
Neal Caffrey (White Collar)/Ethan Hunt (Mission: Impossible)
Neal Caffrey (White Collar)/Peter Burke (White Collar)/Ethan Hunt (Mission: Impossible)
I just think that Neal and Ethan would really enjoy being little shits with a heart of gold together, while Peter sighs heavily in the background
