Summary
Moonlight glints off of the twin tear tracks drawn down her cheeks. (Sarah always cried when she was sick.) Ellie scrubs at her eyes, more aggressively than she needed to. (Ellie never cries in front of him. Or she tries not to, at least.)
“Let’s get you back up the hill, okay?”
She starts to shake her head, but she squeezes her eyes shut at the movement.
“I’m so dizzy. I can’t— ‘m gonna fall.”
He helps her up, holds her forearms gently. Her jacket crinkles.
“You ain’t gonna fall. I got you.”

Summary
Ellie had stopped screaming. She stared down at her gory work, still hyperventilating, before letting her blood-covered hands slip away from the handle as she struggled to her feet.
Outside.
Door.
Escape.
Ellie turned with such unsteadiness that she almost tumbled over. Her breath was still struggling in and out of her broken lungs, both from the panic as well as the smoke, and her entire body was still shaking. Shuddered, terrified whimpers fell from her lips with each breath, though when she made it outside, they were hidden under the howling of the wind.
Cold.
Freezing.
Hurts.
Everything was white and covered in snow. The surrounding landscape was completely featureless. Ellie didn’t have any room left in her mind to bother trying to figure out where the fuck she was, she just knew that she had to get away from the burning hell behind her.
And then someone grabbed Ellie’s hand.
And she screamed for her fucking life.
TLDR/ Ellie's journey throughout their year on the road told through her panic attacks, from Sam's death, to after David, to Jackson. This also explores her trauma with F.E.D.R.A as well as everything else after they arrive in Jackson.

Summary
Ellie paused. Briefly, she shot a glance towards the door to make sure that it was empty before panning back over towards the flask. It was heavy to lift. It’s full, she realized, pausing again.
There was an idea that began to brew in the bottom of her stomach.
That idea was even further fueled by a corresponding slew of images of Joel drinking by the campfire every few weeks, especially after they’d had a bad week like when Henry and Sam had died or after they’d lost Tess.
It must help, Ellie thought as she stared down at the flask. At least a little bit.
She continued to stare.
“Ellie,” Joel’s voice echoed from down the hall. At the sound, as well as the sudden thump-thump of his approaching footsteps, she grabbed the flask from where it sat on the dust-brushed desk and then shoved it down into her pocket just as his face appeared in the door. "Hey. You find anythin’?”
“Nothing,” Ellie answered, all the while coiling her fingers around the flask hidden in her jacket pocket.
TLDR/ Exploring Ellie's recovery after Silver Lake and the methods with which she tries to cope, all the while Joel worries.

Summary
Ellie doesn’t think; she reacts. She throws herself between Tommy and the Infected just in time for its teeth to sink in her right arm rather than into Tommy. She plunges her knife into its neck with her left hand and kicks the Runner’s body to the ground. It twitches once before lying still. She turns to Tommy with a grin.
“Same arm and everyth—” Ellie freezes at the look on his face. Tommy looks furious—she didn’t think that was an emotion he even knew about. She can’t remember a time when she’s seen him anything other than cheerful and amiable.
(Or: Ellie takes a bite for Tommy. The Miller brothers don’t approve.)
Contains disciplinary spanking of a fictional teenager. Please mind the tags!

Summary
“Names Tommy,” greeted the voice from beside you. Tommy leaned forward, his face just inches from yours. He continued to walk even as you stumbled over your own feet, overwhelmed by the sudden proximity of the stranger.
Seeing him from afar did him absolutely no justice. Long, dirty blonde hair, bright eyes, and a charming smile that made your face warm, despite the situation.
“What’s a little thing like you doin’ all the way out here? Shouldn’t you be cuddled up with your daddy in the QZ?”
-
Survival is a skill that everyone had to gain after the world ended. Your father was killed in the Boston QZ, leaving you alone and forced to survive all on your lonesome. Just to eat you had to steal from strangers, but unfortunately, you picked two of the worst people to target. What you didn’t expect was the lust that steadily built between all three of you. -

Summary
“Joel.” He says. He’s Texan, which as far as Ellie’s concerned is an accent-imitating jackpot.
"Can I call you Joe?"
"No."
"Jojo?"
"Absolutely not."
There's a brief silence.
“You’re gonna stop me from getting shot in the face?”“That’s the job.”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As the (alleged) daughter of the new president, Ellie Wiliams is hellbent on making herself as much of a nuisance as possible. Joel Miller, the virtually unreadable and perpetually grumpy bodyguard assigned to watch her for eighteen hours a day, certainly thinks she's doing a good job of it. But as Ellie processes losses of her past and present, she slowly begins to realise just how valuable it can be to have someone watching your back.
(Angst/eventual fluff found family Joel & Ellie AU, slow-burn father-daughter relationship.)

Summary
“Miller,” The radio crackled, shattering the otherwise peaceful night. “You there?”
Joel simmered in the quiet for one more moment before sighing and taking his radio from its rest. “Here,” He echoed in a grumble. “What’ve you got for me?”
“I’ve got a missing little girl, possibly seen about two blocks from you. Suspect’s mid fifties, possibly armed. He’s her math teacher. ” The voice over the radio drawled. Tess. Her low, weathered voice, similar to Joel’s, was easy to recognize. They were friends, maybe something more than that, which was why she knew that a call about a missing girl was going to be hard for him. “I know,” She sighed over the microphone. “But, I don’t have anyone else, and this girl’s been gone all day. Every second counts, you know that.”
“I know that,” Joel echoed in a low tone. He sighed, and then reached down and flicked on his siren. "Christ. Her teacher?"
“I know,” Tess echoed. “Just go get her.”
TLDR// Joel was a cop. After a long day of long calls, he was heading home, and then he got the call. It was just another call, just another kid. And then it wasn't. As soon as he saw Ellie, he knew that it wasn't, and he knew that she wasn't leaving his life anytime soon.

Summary
When Tommy Miller lost his niece, he lost his brother too. Joel became a shadow of himself, a stranger Tommy felt tied to by blood and obligation and nothing more. Tommy pushed his own grief aside while Joel’s swallowed him, avoiding talking about Sarah or their shared loss because it would only make Joel lash out. When Tommy couldn’t take it anymore, he left and found a new life in Jackson, a community where he can finally revisit all the memories he’d tucked away when Joel needed him to. He builds a new life, finds a new family, and thinks he’s finally moved on from the hurt his brother put him through when Joel suddenly appears in Jackson, asking for a favor and threatening to drag Tommy right back into his darkness.

Summary
Expert
The rain stopped a few hours later, and Tess stepped out, looking at something on the ground. She said, “Joel, we might have a problem.” Looking down at the wolf track.
Joel looked at the track and said, “It was probably passing through, but let's start walking along the road regardless.” He didn't think it was tracking them, but it didn't hurt to be cautious.
Ellie saw the wolf track but stayed silent. She didn't want it to be killed if it was not a threat to them.

Summary
“Come home with me,” Sarah rushes to say before Ellie can launch into any excuses about loving her own time and space and quiet. She’s sure that there’s some degree of truth to it, but Sarah’s calling bull on Ellie actually wanting to be entirely alone in the freezing, blustery landscape of a Massachusetts winter instead of flying out to Wyoming and spending a few weeks together.
“Sarah…”
“No! No, it’ll be fun, okay? We can do all of my favorite holiday things like bake cookies and watch movies and go shopping. I hate going shopping alone! And my dad already said that you can come, and it’s our first Christmas since he moved up to Wyoming, and it’ll just be…nice if you’re there too.” Everything was already going to be so different, to feel so different. So maybe this difference could be something good. Sarah could stand a chance to look forward to along with all of the change that she was…making the best of. “I want you there too.”
//
or: Sarah can't stand the concept of Ellie being left all alone over the holidays. Ellie doesn't know if she can stomach forcing her way into some other family's Christmas. And Joel just wants to get it all right.

Summary
Spending time with Tommy makes Joel happy, which causes a sharp pain in Ellie’s gut. Joel and Tommy have decades of inside jokes and shared history that she can’t ever be part of.
Family is Joel’s driving force: You keep goin’ for family. Joel crossed the country for Tommy, only bringing Ellie along as an afterthought. Ellie hopes she’s not quite cargo anymore, but she doesn’t like it when the difference is laid out so starkly in front of Joel: the brother he practically raised and the feral raccoon that imprinted on him against his will. A side-by-side comparison of her and the prodigal brother isn’t doing her any favors. She needs to find a way to get Tommy out of the way without losing Joel, and it’s proving difficult.
(Or: Tommy worms his way past Ellie’s defenses to become Uncle Tommy again.)
