hiiii for the au ask maybe a west wing pirate au and/or (because ik u love them) a cj/toby/andy au where cj and andy are divorced instead of toby and andy
(idk if you've done either of these already, apologies if so)
oh my god i have to do the ot3 one you know me too well. this rips my soul out.
they did not get divorced because they stopped loving each other. they got divorced because they loved each other too much, and cj had always cared too much about what people thought and andy had always been too stubborn to listen to her. they had the same fight over and over again, and cj had to leave because she knew andy never would. no one won, because no one fell out of love. it was a fracture that grew into heartbreak that neither could recover from.
when rumors about cj and danny start going around, andy pays a visit to the the white house. "people talk, you know." "don't start. i have enough people accusing me of losing my journalistic integrity around here, i don't need my ex-wife doing it too." "jesus, cj. i'm not- i know you wouldn't do that. i know you. i was just going to warn you, that's all." and they talk and cj is a little less hostile and then on her way out, andy gives her a kiss on the cheek and says "be careful, claud." and cj can't help but think about that for the rest of the day.
andy brings her a chocolate croissant every morning she comes to the white house, because they used to live near a bakery when they were engaged and that was cj's old order.
toby and cj are still toby and cj. they're still the "heart on hand, one of those nights, dance with me, you want to make out with me right now" couple we know and love. andy watches them dance around each other and wonders if it'll ever be the three of them again, or if they'll leave her behind. (they don't. they never could.)
andy and toby are... friends, in their own way. toby has a key to andy's house and checks on her apartment when she's out of town, she still brings him pie. in the world where they're not divorced, they can be a lot closer as friends but that bit of tension still remains because. obviously.
hey girl sorry um. we stabbed your boyfriend in the senate house. yeah a seer told him to beware the ides of march but he didn't listen. brutus and cassius got him. i'm so sorry
Once you stop thinking about queer people's labels as strict indications of what's in their pants and who they do/don't bed and instead view queer people's labels as how they interact with the world, you'll find that you'll get along with queer people better and treat them better, I think.
