Summary
When Maverick takes off in Darkstar against orders, he's left with far too much time to contemplate the near-inevitable end of his career. Worse still is the thought that Admiral Cain would like nothing more than to kill off not just his flying career, but manned aircraft development across the Navy. To paraphrase the great American philosopher Jimmy Buffet, apparently "occupational hazard" means his occupation's just not around.
(alternatively titled "Maverick has an existential crisis at 70,000 feet")

The Fortunate Few by thetamehistorian

Summary
The rumours, when they started, were quiet, tentative.
They were whispered in the dead of night between brothers sharing bunkrooms, passed down from veteran to shiny. They were a comfort when the battle turned and all seemed hopeless. Then the first lost brothers came back and the rumours amongst the clones grew confident, grew louder, became shouts.
Do not be afraid, they said. Do not be afraid if you are hurt and alone.
The Relief Corps will find you. The Relief Corps will save you.
In which a Jedi forced into war refuses to give up on her values and a clone Captain learns there’s more to life than scrapping clankers and sometimes that’s enough to change the fate of the galaxy.

Summary
Five times Yondu maybe, kinda, sorta, almost claimed Peter as a son and one time he totally did. Nothing too intense, just a little Yondu/Peter father-ish/son-ish bonding-ish. Almost entirely pre-movie.
