    Summary

    “Nothing serious yet,” Maria says, reaching out and smoothing a few short curls away from James’ face, “there’s just been a few cases of pertussis reported among some of the younger kids.” After looking at both Joel and Tommy’s blank faces, she says, “whooping cough.”

    Fuck, Joel thinks.

    “Oh, fuck,” Tommy says.

     

    When an illness strikes the family, Joel starts to realize just how much of a community he has for the first time in a long time.

    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

    “I’m still getting used to that.” Ellie tells him. “Someone caring where I am all the time.”

    Joel chooses his words very carefully. “It’s my job. I quite like it, if I’m honest. ”

    She smiles, a little wry, expression molding into something awkward to hide the tremble of her lip. “Interesting take considering I’m the government equivalent of a last draft pick.”

    He hums in acknowledgement. “But you’ll always be my first round pick. That’s what counts.”

    or;

    It's been twenty years since Sarah died and he fell apart. It's been fifteen years since Tommy couldn't take the heartbreak of helping someone who didn't want to be helped and left without looking back. And it's been ten years since Joel's started to rebuild.

    It's day one of fostering Ellie Williams.

    Summary

    Ellie’s pretty sure dudes don’t wear nail polish. She’s never seen a picture of them with it on, anyway. And Joel probably wants to go home. It’s late and he spent the day bashing in former human's skulls.

    But her curiosity gets the better of her. She looks up as he walks into the kitchen after her, taking a few bottles out of the box. “I’m gonna do yours.”

    “Right now?”

    “Right now.”

     

    Two girls. Two times. Numerous bottles of nail polish.
