#tjeff is real

[yogurvtt]

THANK YOU MOOGIE WE ALL SCREAM IN UNISON ‼️

Hey ⭑ Hey !! Thomas Jefferson’s coming hooomeee!

[ovrarches]

Once I went to someone’s shitty frat house for brunch and we made pancakes from cheap pancake mix. And then he brought out this violet syrup meant for making drinks that he bought for like €50 while vacationing in France, and we used the whole bottle on the pancakes. Anyways this is extremely Thomas coded

[jennicatzies]

what about the characters with the same actor? Does Hamilton ever look at his soon and think "he looks suspiciously like my dead totally platonic friend" or maybe same thing with jefferson. Maybe he even asks Thomas about wtf is happening. Maybe Thomas says something eerie about "you shouldn't have known that" and the lights go off immediately. Or maybe he tries to help, as much as he can while still maintaining his act? Does he send Alexander sympathetic glances while utterly destroying him in the cabinet battles? Smh I feel like jeff would be the most helpful of them all while madison/mulligan would straight up try to stop any misbehaving the second it happens

About the double roles question, already answered here

Now. Ahhh finally some TJeffs talk HAHAH ‼️

Man okay so. I've had thoughts about the state of Jefferson's consciousness! Big fan of that guy. silly, silly guy. bastard supreme [affectionate]

Answer and yapfest under the cut

Pulling reference from the disney+/pro shot of Hamilton, you might notice some minor silly 4th wall breaks from Jefferson such as like, blowing a kiss to the audience and handing a copy of the Reynolds Pamphlet to someone off stage. I wanna canonize that. Let's cook.

I feel that these little interactions can easily be translated/filtered by his script wiring, but hey. Look. Consider. Jefferson's script binding is faulty, but just not even as close to the degree Burr and Hamilton are. Like, oh yeah he'll sometimes get an off feeling about the setting. But ultimately he's blinded by Whimsy and he just doesn't think too deep about it. "Oh yeah uh I'm probably not supposed to be seeing that. But I'm having so much fun rn who gaf"

Everyone in the cast [excluding ensemble members] have minds of their own, their awareness and absolute free will are just locked away. They aren't on the side of the Stage, so I wouldn't see the whole ominous warning thing happening. Closest we can get to that are from Damage Control aka EnSeabury and Bullet, but I can't see them outright warning Hamilton or Burr either.

Burr is absolutely TWEAKING being the most broken off from wiring watching Jefferson — someone who is still very much bound to the script — so casually have audience interactions here n there.

So basically he is unfortunately not the most helpful either, shite 😔 unless giving Burr a psychologically induced headache is considered helpful

Okay maybe Seabury can. As a treat. Lmao. Yapper on yapper violence stays real

Three-Legged Puppy Fics

List five of your least-popular fics, as well as when/why you wrote them.

Home to the Weary: Merlin, Gwen/Morgana, 2010.

I wrote this at the request of a friend who wanted, I think, something Gwen-centric. Because I was not a fan of the show I decided to focus on an AU in which Gwen backflipped out of that whole situation and founded her own sort of kingdom, only meeting the terrible trio years later. It was really fun and was the first time I'd ever tried writing a fic that hinted at a larger world going on around the characters, if that makes sense. This one's a little pretentious but you can definitely see my "style" as it were.

Treads on the Ground: Babylon (not the sci-fi show, the short-lived british cop show), Liz Garvey/Finn Kirkwood, 2022.

This was written during my Bertie Carvel phase where I'd watched "Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell" and was desperate for something, anything, that didn't have him wearing terrible prosthetics or playing a psycho. He still sort of plays a psycho in this show, but he looks super hot and angry all the time which is really all I needed. (Also bonus hilarity: Liz's boyfriend in this show is played by none other than James Lance, playing "louche asshole" to the absolute hilt.) Anyway I wrote this because I really wanted a fake dating AU for these two AND a "Finn is secretly in line to the throne" fic and this was the perfect way to combine these two. I'm still legitimately really proud of thsi fic.

The Bright Relief: 1776 musical, John Adams & Thomas Jefferson (and a little bit of / in there, if I'm honest), 2010.

I wrote this because my friends waldorph and screamlet and I were having the Summer of 1776 Feelings and we all wrote various (wonderful) crimes and misdemeanors in that fandom, mostly revolving all the ways in people who love John Adams make fun of him. That was a truly terrible summer but made a whole lot better by those two, and by William Daniels being the most John Adams to ever John Adams. (I actually rewatched the miniseries a few months ago and Paul Giamatti does a great job but that thing is SO DREARY. Although I will say Stephen Dillane first caught my eye in the role of TJeff, aka once again playing a guy who's down real bad for someone smarter than him (in this case both Abigail AND John). The scene where he first meets Abigail is just nonstop flirting, with John making faces in the background. It's great.)

Happy Tails To You (Until We Meet Again): SGA, Rodney McKay/John Sheppard, 2009.

Oh lordy — probably the worst fic I've ever written, but I can't quite bring myself to delete it. I've been on the periphery of fandom for most of my adult life (what up X-Files yahoo groups and Prodigy Star Trek RP rooms), but SGA was what made me start thinking of writing fic after a long period of only reading it. (Yes, there is college-era gus fic out there. No, I'm not posting it on AO3.) I never quite got a handle on Sheppard or McKay but I did enjoy writing this and the other SGA fic I wrote, but yeah this deserves its obscurity.

Honey Now I'm Not One To Complain: Dalgliesh, Adam Dalgliesh/Kate Miskin, 2022.

Another one of my "Bertie Carvel is extremely attractive when he's sad and/or a cop" flash-fandoms, although I wrote a pretty good primer on the first season that I think gives a good case for the show as a whole. I wanted to write that largely because the show is so resolutely grim and I prefer stories that are... not grim, so I gave myself the challenge of putting these guys into one of the classic tropes. I did toy with the fake dating/marriage trope but honestly I think this was funnier, and I would always rather commit to the bit.

Tagging uhhh let's see, @laiqualaurelote, @themardia, @sadcypress, @auntieclimactic, and @eyebrowofdoom, if they (or anyone else) wants to do this.

[spaghetti-number1rated1997]

hehheehee

1776!jefferson and hamilton!madison would get along i think, cause real musical!tjeffs is the same amount of ‘im so tired of my arrogant obnoxious friend omfg’ as he is

but i like to draw him as more of a sunshine character sometimes, cause he has it in him :)

and i took franklin’s dialouge from ‘wake up franklin! Ur going to new brunswick!’ ‘Like hell I am, what for?’ ‘The whoring and the drinking.’ (gets up) [Adams] [Franklin] [Hopkins]

They would be amazing in the au 🤭

Golden Retriever Jefferson and "I want a breakkkk" musical Jefferson will definitely hang out.

[binch-i-might-be]

I had my own idea for a trans Alex story, but I want to make this one good.

Okay, so Alex is in his mid to late 20s, he’s been out for about over ten years at this point. He got top surgery, has been taking T, has a goatee, and besides being a little short, like shorter than Hamilton usual (or maybe same height, idk), you’d mistake him for a cis man. He was with Eliza for a long time, unmarried, but they had kids, (intro-vitriol, John was the sperm donor, with Eliza’s eggs)

So like this one night, he needs to go on a business trip with TJeff, who have a major rivalry. So they end up booking a hotel room together and omg, there’s only one bed! Things go on, Thomas finds out he’s trans and ends up sleeping with him.

And it just goes on. They become fuck buddies, and it’s good at first, but Alex is starting to wonder, was Thomas only doing this because Alex was trans, as in, Thomas fetishized trans people. That really fucks him up for a few days and after a while when Alex suggests he fuck Thomas, with a strap-on, since he wasn’t always the bottom when paired with all his other partners, and Thomas freaks out and says no.

I don’t know what to do after this, but if anyone wants to use this idea, go for it! I’m gonna not finish it either way *cries*.

I stan late twenties divorcee (or, well. separated lmao) Alex and his kids 🥺

,,,,,and there was only one bed ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I do like a Jamilton fuck buddy situation because of all the delicious angst potential! like, are there real, deep feelings brewing or are they perhaps really just fucking? who knows!

not loving Thomas' vibe here tho..... IS he only hooking up with Alex because he has a weird fetish? suspicious :/

also he should be HONOURED by the offer of getting Alex's strap

ungrateful 😤

[astralaffairs]

ok i just had this thought. would tjeffs or mc ever call in sick if the other (finally) had one day off (aka morning snuggles amd no need for pants all day plus good ole quality time)? idk i’m a how for fluff so i just thought about it.

omg those fools would ABSOLUTELY pull this bs. love those dumbasses 🥺

-------

“You mean you aren’t stayin’ the night?”

Y/N glanced back over her shoulder at the sound of Thomas’s voice as she struggled to put her earrings back in. She quirked a brow.

“Seriously?” When he didn’t move from his spot on the end of the bed, just watching her expectantly, she rolled her eyes despite her endeared smile. “Thomas, you know I can’t. We both have work in the morning. Or have you forgotten it’s still Thursday?”

As she returned to buttoning up her top, not looking to Uber home looking entirely wrecked, Thomas stood, following her through the doorway with a small frown. She scowled when she realized he’d popped the top two buttons clean off the blouse, but her annoyance was short lived — his arms wrapped tightly around her waist, pulling her close (and blocking her from fixing the zipper of her pants). The sudden feeling of his body against her back made her gasp.

“Actually, sweetheart, I’m off tomorrow,” he murmured, burrowing his face into the side of her neck, kissing her skin lightly. Her eyebrows shot up.

“Wait, seriously?” He hummed his confirmation. “How’d you pull that off? Call me crazy, but I figured that being the Republican presidential nominee was a bit more of a full-time job.”

Her wry tone was heavy with skepticism, but it only made him grin. “James is out sick. ‘S nothin’ serious, but we had to reschedule all our meetings for Monday, instead.”

“Well, congrats,” Y/N responded dryly. “I’m thrilled that you have the morning to sleep in. Enjoy it while you can.”

“You could enjoy it with me,” he murmured into her hair, and she shivered when his hands crept up under the hem of her shirt, meeting her bare waist.

“I have a job, T,” she reminded him, “and far from enough money in the bank to quit it.”

“Could call in sick, though, hm? ‘S only one day off,” he said innocently, and she turned around to face him, her gaze unamused.

“My editor’s expecting me.”

“She’d understand a sudden bout of illness, wouldn’t she?”

Y/N let out a mirthless laugh. “You’ve never met Ashley.”

“Well, if she isn’t gonna let her best writer take a day to rest ‘n recover, she must not be all that good of a boss,” Thomas countered with a grin, and when he tugged her toward him, rested his forehead against hers, she couldn’t help her soft smile.

“Tell me about it.” She looped her arms up around his neck, pushed herself up onto her toes to kiss him. He hummed with content when she threaded a hand into his hair. “But she’s also the one who signs my paychecks.”

“Y’know,” Thomas said, voice low as a mischievous smile spread across his face, “if it’s the bills you’re worried about, my campaign is lookin’ for a new speechwriter.”

“Aw, that’s too bad.” Y/N plastered on a mocking pout. “Hope you find one soon.”

“Know anybody who might be up for the challenge?” he asked, and her smile was wide despite her exasperation. “Our last guy was a journalist, but he left us for the New York Times.”

“Sorry, Jefferson, you’re on your own with this one.”

“Mmh. Whatta shame.” As his grip on her waist loosened, she turned, began to walk away to find her purse, but he caught her upper arm, and when he pulled her into him, she yelped, stumbling backward. Her heart rate spiked as she tripped, only to fall into his shirtless chest. “If only I knew any writers who really hated their bosses. They’d probably be real easy to recruit.”

“Not this time,” she laughed. “I’m not even voting for you, let alone working for your campaign. I’m sure countless Republicans would be up for the job, though.”

“No fun,” he pouted. She leaned back to kiss his cheek where he’d dropped his head onto her shoulder. “You could still stay over, though. Just leave in the morning.”

“I’d be late for work.”

“Then call in sick,” he groaned, and when she sighed, he pursed his lips. “Alright, listen, if you really don’t wanna, I get it. But how often are we gonna be able to just spend a day together, hm? Got meetings all week ‘n campaign events every weekend. This is the first day I’ve got off since I announced I was runnin’ for president.”

“It does sound nice,” Y/N murmured, and the corners of Thomas’s lips quirked.

“Could make breakfast, stay in bed till noon,” he said softly, and as she sighed, her eyes fluttered shut. Her hands came to cover his on her hips, and she laced her fingers into his. “I’ve got everything I need for pancakes and bacon.”

“And your campaign isn’t going to announce anything groundbreaking tomorrow?”

“Nobody’s gonna be in office. There’ll be nothin’ to report on.” A long moment passed in Y/N’s contemplative silence, and Thomas could tell she was caving. He kissed her hair gently. “One day off isn’t gonna end your career, sweetheart.”

“I know, but...” She trailed off, turning in his arms to face him. “But I really love my job, Thomas. I don’t want to do anything to put it in jeopardy.”

“One little migraine or stomach flu isn’t gonna get you fired,” he reassured her, and she pursed her lips. “C’mon, baby. Just this once?”

She took a deep breath, considering him, and when he raised his eyebrows, brushing a lock of hair out of her face, tucking it behind her ear, she asked quietly, “D’you have a waffle iron?”

He smiled. “Matter of fact, I do.”

“The kind that flips?”

“Mhm.”

There was a skip, and she bit her lip, worried expression unwavering. His hands drifted down to her hips, and hers ran across his shoulders, ultimately looping around his neck. She didn’t meet his gaze. He swallowed hard, but after a moment, the corners of her lips twitched.

“Y’know, suddenly, I think I might be getting sick.”

She squealed when he suddenly picked her up by the thighs, walking her back toward his room with a wide grin. “Then I think,” Thomas muttered, and when she pulled herself toward him, clung to his shoulders, his lips were unrelenting against the crook of her neck, “a day of rest is exactly what you need.”

[ovrarches]

Honestly a good slutty turtleneck is not bad ;))) also thats so in character for TJeffs, came back from France taking some of the european dressing habits back home, you're so real for this <3

LMAO YEA he wants to be French so bad<3 I like to picture him with a fitted (slutty) turtleneck + garishly patterned suit combo!!

Apparently Europeans can tell when someone’s American if they wear leggings/sweatpants out in public so Thomas would totally take that to heart. He’d be chilling in his own home wearing business casual. And the one time he wears sweatpants to work Alex stops a meeting to ask him if he’s dying

[fiction-fun]

how 'bout a bit of modern AU Hamilton jeffmads fluff?

Hi!! I'm so sorry this took so long! The truth is I don't really follow Jeffmads but...I did my best! I hope you enjoy it!

Fandom: Hamilton

Pairing: Tjeffs and Madison (JeffMads)

Warnings: None

James hummed softly as he moved around the small apartment kitchen. He stirred something in the pot on the stove before he poured in some milk and mixed that in.

“Oh, I hope he likes this.” James murmured to himself as he put the final things into the pot and then placed a lid on top.

He picked up his phone and walked to the living room after turning the stove down, so the meal wouldn’t burn. James sighed softly and settled into the couch flipping on the TV to kill some time until Thomas got home. James was flipping channels when Thomas walked in with a small groan and dropped his bag on the floor.

“Thomas!” James called with a smile as he jumped off the couch and walked to the other man, hugging him.

Thomas sighed and wrapped his arms around James, dropping his head down on James’ shoulder.

“Hey.” Thomas said softly, not lifting his head.

James hummed softly, reaching up and running his fingers gently through Thomas’s curls. He could tell the other man had a headache.

“Why don’t you go lay down for a little bit, I’ll bring you a glass of water and medicine in a few minutes.” James said softly.

Thomas nods but makes no move to lift his head. James sighs softly and pressed a kiss to Thomas’s cheek before leading the other man to their bedroom. He led Thomas over to the bed and laid him down, Thomas groans softly and tosses a hand over his eyes. James sighs softly as he carefully tugs the shoes from Thomas’s feet.

“Just stay here, I’ll be right back.” James said softly as he backed from the room, quietly shutting the door behind himself.

James quickly went out and stirred the meal before grabbing a cup, and filling it with cool water before grabbing some headache medicine. He walked down the hall and slowly opened the door, peering in and looking at Thomas who hadn’t moved and inch.

“Thomas?” James called softly, to not aggravate his headache.

“Hmm?” Thomas hummed softly.

James stood at the head of the bed.

“I’ve got some water and headache medicine.” James said softly.

Thomas slowly moved his arm, and sat up so he could see James. He smiled softly in thanks as he took the water and medication, taking it and drinking half the glass quickly he sighed softly.

“Today wasn’t good, but I’m glad to be home.” Thomas said finally, voice soft as he waited for the medicine to kick in.

James sat on the edge of the bed, nodding.

“Yeah, so you mentioned, what even went on?” James asked softly watching Thomas.

Thomas sighed before leaning back.

“The Professor just left the class, and because I’m the TA, I took over and it just went downhill.” Thomas said softly.

James sighed softly with a small half smile in sympathy.

“Why did he leave?” James asked next.

Thomas shrugged.

“He got a phone call and then just left.” He replied after a second.

James nodded and they lapsed into silence for a while, long enough that the medicine seemed to kick in as Thomas reached over and flipped on the bedside lamp. It was after another minute when James realized…

“Oh no!” James exclaimed as he rushed from the room, towards the kitchen.

…he forgot dinner on the stove. James reached the kitchen and sighed in relief when he opened the pot and realized the meal was safe. He gave it a stir and turned, jumping slightly when he saw Thomas standing there in the door way.

“What did you make?” Thomas asked a small smirk playing across his face.

James smiled slightly and lifted the spoon from the pot, showing him the cheese coated noodles on it. Thomas’s eyes went wide, as a real smile slid onto his face.

“You had a bad day, so I made you homemade mac and cheese.” James said smiling softly in a small shy voice.

Before James could react, Thomas had leaned down and pulled the spoon into his mouth, causing James to laugh slightly at his antics.

“Mm that’s really good Darlin’, thank you, for being amazing.” Thomas said as he looked into James eyes.

A barely noticeable blush covered James’s cheeks at Thomas’s words and he smiled brightly as well.

“Of course! I’d do anything to help you feel better!” James said smiling brightly.

Thomas pressed a kiss to James’ lips and pulled back with a smile.

“Let’s eat this wonderful meal you made, love.” Thomas said as he stood up straight and reached over grabbing some plates.

James smiled and nodded, spooning some mac and cheese on each of the plates before they went over to the couch where the tv was on a random channel and ate together. Thomas looked over at James a while later and smiled softly, he leaned over pressing a kiss to his cheek, James smiled and snuggled into Thomas’s side a bit more.

[slutshame-alexanderhamilton]

Do you think a person is automatically shitty if they are a tjeffs fan?

Well first off, we need to define “fan.” Are we talking about being a legitimate “fan” in the way that I’m a fan of Star Trek or Star Wars? Because if we are, that’s a problem, because Jefferson was a real person who lived, and also a really really shitty person at that. Being a “fan” of a historical figure isn’t really something that I think should happen, if only because of the connotations of the word fan (I.e. a sort of “hero worship” deal).

If you’re talking someone having Jefferson as a favorite historical figure or a historical figure that they’re interested in is a little different. People who study history are allowed to have favorite time periods and favorite figures (or “time periods/figures of interest” if you don’t want to use the word favorite), and if someone is really interested in Jefferson, then they’re allowed to be interested in Jefferson. I think the problem comes with “Great Man History,” which often ignores or minimizes the shittiness of whoever you’re studying. Like, think about the stereotypical WWII bros who are quick to point out the atrocities committed by the Axis Powers and the Japanese, but ignore that the Allies are just as guilty of atrocities. That’s a problem, and that’s where a lot of people’s wariness of “fans of [blank]” come in, I think.

TL;DR: Not necessarily, but it’s all about the person who is saying that and how you study Jefferson (or anything/anyone else in history, really). You can have a time period/figure of interest, but use multiple sources and read multiple points of view if you can, and try to avoid falling into the trap of “Great Man History.”

Should i even continue this

[look-around-x2]

Satisfied, What'd I Miss (i'm a sucker for Hamilton's Jefferson, Daveed really excels here, and that over-the-top snark in every accented syllable is jdhjdkdhsgsh) (sorry Lafayette I love you too), Wait For It (god, fuck off Alex, you could literally have avoided all of your problems with communication and better teamwork strategy, as well as listening to his family, especially Angelica because she has always been right so far) (Burr deserved better than he got, God), Stay Alive Reprise (I delight in anything that can breach my numb shell and make me feel a Single Emotion™), Story of Tonight (tbh I'm not too familiar with either), It's Quiet Uptown (this was tough, I really love That Would Be Enough), (shit I don't want to choose) Burn (Phillip's little rap and A.Ham as a supportive dad in Take A Break is the best thing in my life ever so far, also Eliza has some great lines, but it's still colored by my sheer fury at this dude, see: above, YOU COULD HAVE AVOIDED ALL YOUR PROBLEMS, OR AT LEAST THIS ONE, IF YOU JUST LISTENED TO ANGELICA, WHO HISTORICALLY HAS NEVER BEEN WRONG), Cabinet Battle #1 (the FIRE, so many things I love about this one, Madison being a bro with "why he even brings the thunder" and the 'ayyy's, how A.Ham basically set fire to Jefferson with his comebacks, etc), Room Where It Happens ("Oh, you get love for it, you get hate for it, you get nothin' if you just wait for it wait for it-" and "but we dream in the dark for the most part", Adams Administration (I can't get over the voice dip in "Welcome folks, to the Adams administration!"), Congratulations, and Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story (an obvious choice, I've stated previously that FUCK canon A.Ham, and I'm a sucker for sad songs with great lyrics)

Overall I like the soundtrack a lot. I'm a big fan of The Reynolds Pamphlet and Say No To This, it's a conflict of ALEX NO ALEX PLEASE IT'S VERY EASY TO NOT FUCK UP THIS BAD, ah yes angst potential, and MARIA I LOVE YOU (she deserved so much better. I could talk for hours about how she deserved way better than she got. Like Burr.)

[binch-i-might-be]

Yeah, I do agree Thomas’s reasoning (whether it would be real or Alex is just that paranoid) for wanting to sleep with Alex is sus and really not cool. But I am under the impression if Thomas is only sleeping with Alex because he’s trans, he would be (or should be) portrayed as more villainous and scummy. And if he isn’t sleeping with Alex for that reason, maybe Thomas is just super nervous about bottoming. Whatever you or anyone else wants to do.

oh yeah obviously you would have to build to that correctly, like there needs to be some kind of foreshadowing and some hints that mister Tjeffs is being a little cunt

aww ok but I kinda love the concept of him just being nervous and it devolving into a misunderstanding, a lot of potential for some Growth™ there!

[astralaffairs]

ok but what are mc's thoughts about fotp!tjeffs wearing grey sweatpants? does she care? is it only allowed at home? these are the important details. (aka i'm currently avoiding thinking about real responsibilities i have as an unprepared adult).

she is a BIG FAN of him in grey sweatpants (and who can blame her??) but since he's a 💫 professional 💫 he usually goes out in slacks or nice jeans, and she prefers that tbh; she's seen too many thirst compilations of him to want him leaving the penthouse in grey sweatpants

however, he will wear them out if he's being a little fucking tease (in the months btwn them getting married and him being elected, he goes out running a little too often in grey sweatpants and no shirt just bc he knows ppl are gonna tweet pics at mc)
