Toby took Bonnie in the transition to the White House and the divorce 😭

Exactly he did 😭

(In reference to my headcanon that Bonnie used to work in Andy's office before joining Toby and Sam's.)

Bonnie was one of Andy's assistants and Andy adores her, they're good friends, she got the complaints about Toby (who she really mostly just knew as "the Congresswoman's husband") and built her own network in DC pretty quickly. And I like to think Andy IS that type of boss who really likes playing a part in advancing her staff's career.

She's a Congresswoman, and not a new one, but she's aware that there are many more prestigious and better paying jobs in this city, and she likes keeping her own office varied and helping her staff along to opportunities. So when Toby mentions during the transition that he hates having to hire assistants that will work so close to him, hates having to vet them and get to know them, Andy is the one who suggests Bonnie.

"She's perfect. She's brilliant. She already knows all your flaws and she laughed at the joke about Pennsylvnia you put into the President's acceptance speech when no one else did. Hire her, I'll ask her."

It's a little awkward when they get divorced within a few months and Bonnie does feel kind of conflicted there, but oh she thrives in the White House, she loves Ginger, she loves Toby and Sam. She always likes being told to order lunch for Toby and his ex wife. (And if Toby sometimes suspects Andy knows something about a speech she shouldn't yet because she's already arguing with him about it, he knows better than to ask Bonnie.)

"Do you know Eddie?" Buck asks. His eyes are huge and earnest and Eddie wants to, like, pinch his cheeks or something. It's not often these days that he gets to see Buck this unguarded. "He's my best - my best friend."

Santa Baby (one little thing I really need) by we_are_the_same | T | 3082 When Louis himself had first heard those words - all the nurses at the A&E have a secret line to Santa’s sleigh on Christmas Eve-, not nearly long enough ago to be considered a child himself, but long enough that he hadn't really felt like an adult all the time, he’d laughed them off. Thought they were sweet, of course, but just a line, something said to appease the kids who ended up having to stay overnight. Something to explain the presents that parents brought to the hospital on Christmas morning, or that were waiting for them at home, if they were lucky not to have to stay any longer. Something that would allow a little bit of Christmas spirit in the sometimes sterile rooms of the hospital. But that was before he’d met him.

A Kiss for Christmas by LadyAJ_13 | T | 3272 Louis meets Father Christmas, then twenty one years later, he meets his son.

Step Into Christmas by babyhoneyhslt | G | 4003 Louis just wants to celebrate his birthday in peace, without all the Christmas antics. Instead he wakes up in a strange bed, a confused stranger next to him and a self proclaimed elf calling him Santa.

until springtime, we sleep (i'll wait for you) by istgeve | nr | 5081 “You’re on the naughty list.” “I— what?” “You’re on the na—“ “Yeah, I got that part. But what does it have anything to do w—“ “You’re on the naughty list.” “Harry.” “Yeah?” “What the fuck?” Or a Christmas AU where Louis is on the naughty list and is kidnapped by a very adorable Elf to serve his punishment.

Ho Ho Hopefully by muldxr | T | 5144 Attached to the gift, just under the bow, was a paper tag, and Harry wished desperately that he could write his own name there. ‘To Louis, from Harry.’ What a dream that would be He’d grown fond of Louis over the time that he’d been watching him, wishing that he could be part of Louis’ life, of his world, regardless of the fact that the only thing Harry had ever known was working for Father Christmas—or Nicholas, as he’d preferred to be called.

Santa Claus Is Coming... To volunteer by nekenma28 | T | 5405 Harry's little niece Charlie is going to spend Christmas for the first time without her mother by her side, so he decides to tell her a nice Christmas bedtime story. He just didn't understand how a made-up story could come true and Harry could become a volunteer Santa Claus responsible for delivering billions of gifts in one night having to put up with the provocative Louis elf. But it's like the saying goes... Have Christmas spirit to give ho-ho-ho last!

Under the Pink Willow Tree by brightlyharry | nr | 7631 It's Christmas Eve and also Louis' eighteen birthday. It's the biggest day of Louis' life. He's been keeping up with his elfin studies for years all in preparation for this. He finally gets to join Santa on the sleigh. Nothing Harry says can ruin this day for him, no matter how hard he tries.

Satan/Santa [Series] by taggiecb | E | 15853 Louis keeps stealing some of Harry’s mail, which would be annoying for anyone, but it’s especially troubling when you consider that Harry is Santa Claus. Harry will have to go through hell to get Louis to stop. Literally. Or the one with Santa Harry and Satan Louis and a series of misspelled letters to Santa.

Reindeer Games by Throwthemflowers | E | 19639 Louis is a disgruntled elf and Harry is one of Santa’s reindeer. Featuring classic miscommunication, heaps of unrequited pining, gratuitous smut (with a bit of, shall we say, horseplay), a pinch of NYC holiday magic, and a sickening amount of Christmas Spirit.

10 fav quotes from fics part 9 !!

it's a bit harder than i initially anticipated picking quotes for each post, especially when i've been compiling them for a year and i only do 10 quotes per post lol so big thank u to my bff @harruandlou for helping me w this one -- you're a gem n a half !!

“With, um, a small swirl of whipped cream,” Harry continues, desperate to stop talking, stop talking, oh my god, stop fucking talking. “Covered in um… a pinch of cinnamon?” -- @disgruntledkittenface

Louis smiles and oh. Oh that is not fucking fair. Because Harry is sat here hard and panting, Louis’s lips are glistening with spit because he’s just been sucking on Harry’s tits and his fingers are still massaging the head of his cock in a way that’s slowly turning him blind, and yet Louis’ smile scrunches his nose and creases his eyes and he looks absolutely, devastatingly adorable. — @zanniscaramouche

He does know. He knows what he is to Louis, and what he isn’t. He’s grateful for what he can get, and he’s in agony for all that he wishes he was. -- @loveislarryislove

Harry doesn't want to timidly look away again, as it only makes him seem more obvious, but he can’t not look away. Louis' gaze goes straight to his core, settles somewhere deep in his belly, and Harry really doesn't want to pop a boner in front of the entire class. -- @larrydoinglaundry

He’s been called a lot of compliments, many of them by Louis himself, but precious is a bit different, isn’t it? Softer, prettier, lovelier.-- @ohpleaselarry

Of course, Harry hadn’t worn any underwear. -- @suesheroll

Harry paused at the door for a moment and then spoke quietly, without turning around. “I’ve never worn a skirt before, sir.” -- @twopoppies

“Says the twink past his prime,” Louis rolled his eyes. -- @jaerie

He barely fought it, in fact, he might not have fought Louis’ alpha voice at all. He just basked in the way Louis’ eyes felt like they were burning his skin as he walked closer to him, his omega obeying as best as it could. -- @lululawrence

With another hand, Harry took a long sip of water, ice-cold shocking his mind back to the present. Calm down. Think about something else. Okay. Taxes, the weather, football, Louis, Louis's voice -- No, not Louis! -- @muldxr

19 ⧽. give a hint/teaser about something you're writing without any context or explanation!

Thank you so much for sending this, and so sorry I forgot to answer before. (The notification was gone so I forgot to come back to this.) And a huge thank you for adding the actual prompt, so I could easily find the post! (This is the ask game.)

Anyway, this one is fun, even if I'm unsure of what to pick. I was between either of the 15k+ stories I've written lately (one is for Jess' AU fest; the other, a wedding anniversary thing I started writing circa my birthday but took me a minute to finish), so I flipped a coin and this is what you get:

And then he smiled at her — a real smile, half-panting, flushed from the race — and she caught a glimpse of his shoulders, broad under the water, and the line of his collarbone where his T-shirt had clung before. It wasn’t fair. She should not be noticing his collarbone. His curls were dripping, messy, and sun-warm, and something fluttered uncomfortably in her stomach. Oh, no. Absolutely not.

Ambiguous enough that I can even get away with saying which one it is from. (Let's see if this survives the eventual editing. This one is the longest of those two, sitting at 18k.)

thank you again! <3
