    Summary

    She can feel fingers comb through her dirty hair, a voice trying to soothe her, but Zelda can’t stop crying, no matter how hard she tries.

    No, don’t, she tries to say, don’t, you shouldn’t touch me, I’m wrong – something’s broken.

    or: a post-calamity exploration into religious trauma

    Summary

    "“It’s ok, baby girl,” he says in a breath as he shuts his eyes, trying to keep himself upright against a surge of heartache. He hears the words as if someone else has said them, like they didn’t leave his lips – but immediately feels the truth in it. The wall he’s tried to keep up between Ellie and Sarah, the nothing-but-bullshit line he’s drawn to try to somehow separate what they are to him is gone. There’s no more pretending. She’s his to take care of – that’s how she ended up here shaking and bleeding, after all, isn’t it?"

    Summary

    “I c… I can’t keep going on like this, Joel,” Ellie sniffled from the hiding place she’d made in his shirt. She was so tired of the nightmares, and the panic attacks, and not being able to eat without being sick; she’d been waiting for all of it to lessen with time, but it hadn’t. In fact, it’d only gotten worse. “... I’m so tired.” Her words shriveled up, and were soon accompanied by the now familiar sound of her crying. It was softer, more tired sounding than he’d grown used to.

    “I know, baby girl,” Joel uttered, letting his breath fall warmly against the top of Ellie’s head as he sighed. If he could take all of her pain away and put it on himself, he’d do it in an instant, but he couldn’t, and so he was left feeling nothing but helpless. “Listen to me, things will get easier-”

    “... when, Joel?”
