Summary
He’s found himself, once again, in a room with no one but Donna and the silence, and the intimacy he’s tried for too long not to examine, an intimacy that has only grown deeper over the last few years.
It felt different between them, tonight.
An 18th and Potomac AU.

Summary
It’s not until he’s falling asleep on the couch to the sound of a reindeer cartoon on his TV, with Donna–asleep–draped across him, his arm wrapped around her shoulders, her head on his chest, that he remembers–it’s been a year since he injured his hand, a year since Stanley, since the diagnosis.
It’s been a year since one of the darkest days of his life, and he hasn’t thought about it once since Donna walked into his office and announced that she was coming home with him.
Three Christmases with Josh and Donna, and a Holy Night AU.

Summary
Josh is about to retreat without knocking when Donna’s door swings open right in front of him, and there she is again, inches away, her eyes widening as she registers his presence.
A King Corn AU where Josh and Donna talk it out, and Josh gets by with a little help from his friends.

Summary
She snakes her hand between them, high instead of low, wrapping it around his bowtie. Starts to pull. And it’s this that snaps him out of it.
Because Josh Lyman isn’t a press secretary and he isn’t a communications director and he isn’t Sam or Toby and he sure as hell isn’t Will, but he’s spent enough time around enough writers to appreciate the art of analogy (at the end of the night you wanna be able to pull it open like tony bennett), to recognize symmetry (donna? my tie’s falling apart), to understand that codas don’t exist merely in cello suites or stump speeches; that life makes space for sartorial bookends, too.
Like bowties being tied, then untied.
