The best moment this season.
Tyrus/muffy bowling date! I've been dying to draw cyrus bowling!
Stop I’m sobbing
TJ Kippen + ignoring his friends' existence the literal second he lays eyes on Cyrus
Okay this moment stood out a lot for me because look at his face– I honestly think this is the moment TJ decided he was going to tell Cyrus how he felt.
Cyrus has been patient with TJ from day 1. He has never forced him to do anything he wasn’t comfortable with. Cyrus encouraged and helped TJ to make the right decisions ON HIS OWN. And even when it was clear Cyrus was upset about Kira, he never gave an ultimatum. He simply expressed that he was feeling uncomfortable around her, leaving TJ to make his own choice on how to deal with that information. Cyrus never made him pick– Cyrus never made him do anything.
And this whole thing about “picking” is crazy for TJ! Because he didn’t see Cyrus and Kira as foils to each other! He never thought he’d have to pick one or the other because Kira was his ~new basketball pal~ whereas Cyrus was his person, whatever that might mean.
But “picking” is often very romantically coded. So while TJ never saw Kira that way, in this scene she basically went “date me or date Cyrus” which was a more than friends thing and even oblivious TJ can pick up on that. Suddenly, Cyrus is being “offered” as a romantic option. Suddenly TJ cannot avoid that any longer.
And Kira says “I guess that answers my question” and peaces out, but really it was TJ who had a big question answered. The question wasn’t “Kira or Cyrus,” but “Am I ready to tell Cyrus how I feel.” Because Cyrus, who knows himself to be gay and crushing on TJ, never pushed TJ to acknowledge it. Cyrus flirted and dropped hints left and right, but he never forced TJ to make an explicit move before he was ready. Cyrus was patient, the way he always was, and because of that TJ could take the time he needed to come to this monumental realization on his OWN TERMS.
Which is why this makes the next two TJ scenes so powerful, and so different from his scene with Kira. We have TJ making all his own choices, and Cyrus supporting him. TJ chooses to start to play an LGBTQ anthem. Cyrus, supporting him, then starts to sing along with it. TJ initiates the handhold on the bench. Cyrus, who has waited so long for this, holds his hand back.
Cyrus never made him pick. Cyrus never pushed him or forced him to change. Cyrus believed in him and supported him and gave him the time he needed to come to terms with his feelings. TJ didn’t pick Cyrus over Kira. TJ and Cyrus chose each other, a year ago on the swingset. Kira was never even an option in the first place.
me: yeah sorry I didn't finish my summer homework I had a bit of a problem at the end of july
my teachers: oh I'm so sorry what happened

Thank you for this and everything else that happened in three wonderful seasons. ANDI MACK (2017 - 2019)
Ouch, I felt that
green tyrus moodboard
lol I made another one, now excuse me im gonna go read some fics and cry
Yes
Disclaimer: I’m well aware TJ is a full on homosexual. i just caught on to this theory and it hints at him kinda being bi and though I’d share. Again he’s very much gay, and I’m v v v happy about it. I just wanna share a little theory thing.
Kira makes TJ pick. This is literally straight up biphobia. She forces him to choose between girls and guys constantly. And he hates it. He hates having to pick. Asking a bisexual to pick is awful and it happened in andimack and they represented subtle biphobia and it was beautiful.
It’s also awful to force a closeted gay to choose and its subtle homophobia and andimack also did that and then made the gayest scene Disney has ever seen and ended Kira and her subtle homophobia.
Yes
Luke really wanted to make it so that no one would want to name their kid after TJ, huh?
Well too bad because I’ve already decided that one day I’m gonna have a dog named Thelonious Jagger.
I still haven’t processed- I have- but, I haven’t
its super crazy to me that tyrus is legit canon and the bench scene isn’t some really detailed fanfic I read. like yall, we deadass got a canon gay couple in a kids tv show. life is good.
I’m- Crying
Married , engaged, parents (toddlers) Parents (teens)
TJ proposes to Cyrus on a bench after they graduate from college. When he gets down on one knee, Cyrus shrieks “yes!” before TJ can even ask him anything.
Cyrus wants a big, extravagant wedding. He’s always the type to go way over the top with things. TJ wants a quiet wedding with their close friends and family. Cyrus caves because he remembers Bex and Bowie’s wedding and how special it was.
They get two small wedding cakes, one blueberry and one double chocolate flavored.
Buffy is TJ’s best man while Andi is Cyrus’s. Jonah is the ring bearer.
They have a more Jewish wedding since Cyrus’s faith is so important to him.
Their wedding takes place in the summer outside. It ends in a torrential downpour, which kind of sucks but also means that TJ and Cyrus get to live out their dream of kissing in the rain, this time as husbands.
TJ takes Cyrus’s last name. Cyrus can’t stop calling him TJ Goodman.
After a couple years of work, they decide they want to start a family. Both are hesitant but ready to have kids of their own. The first girl they adopt is a dark haired sweetheart who reminds Cyrus of his Bubbe, so they name her Rose. They adopt another girl named Emily two years later.
As toddlers, Emily and Rose are either best friends or complete enemies. They love to play together as well as torment each other. TJ and Cyrus get overwhelmed having two toddlers at once. At the end of the day, they’re both so exhausted they can barely move. However, it’s totally worth it.
As Emily and Rose get a bit older, they adopt another younger boy. TJ says they should name him after their favorite artists like his parents did. It’s kind of a joke, but also he’s kind of being serious. Cyrus quickly rejects they idea, but comes up with a great homage to TJ’s real name. They name him Theo, as a shorter, improved alternative to Thelonious.
Emily and Rose love taking care of their younger brother. They constantly bring him to tea parties. He slobbers all over everything, but they don’t seem to mind.
Time goes by way too fast. Their kids start growing up, and before they know it, they’re teenagers. Cyrus and TJ quickly learn that teenagers are a whole new level of difficult to parent. Luckily, with Cyrus being a school psychologist, he is pretty good at talking and solving conflicts.
Theo has problems with bullying at some point in time. TJ wants to march right up to the kid who had the audacity to bully his son and tell him off. Even though Cyrus also feels a strong urge to do that, he manages to hold himself back and talks to the principle instead.
Rose and Emily fight with each other a lot as they become teenagers. There comes a point in time where they hardly even talk to each other. The two of them are so close that they always end up coming back together, though.
The two girls constantly pester Theo, but they also are protective over him possibly even more than Cyrus and TJ themselves. No one messes with their little brother.
Their favorite thing to do is outings as a family on the weekends when they can all be together. Even though as teenagers their kids are more embarrassed to be seen with them, they still always look forward to these outings.
