Summary
“Hey.”
The girl’s eyes snapped up, panicked. She spared a second to glance down at the man in front of her, her eyes racing up and then looked at Joel with the exact same type of terror, before emerging with something in her hands.
Joel watched, immediately suspecting a gun. “Whoa, now-”
The girl lifted her hands up, revealing an old knife. She smeared the tears on her cheeks away, trying to seem bigger than she was, but it didn’t work.
She was a terrified kid.
The urgency in Joel’s expression blinked. “Hey,” He repeated, his voice painted soft, though he didn’t let himself hear it. The girl just stared up at him with her knife, not realizing the tremble of her own grip or the violent shakes that tore through her entire, bare body. He just realized that now. Only her knees were covering her, along with the clearly torn pair of underclothes on her lower half. She cringed under his eyes. “It’s okay,” He tried. “I’m not gon’ hurt you.”
The girl didn’t even blink. She just stared up through her tears, terrified of him.
Fuck.
TLDR: Joel finds a traumatized Ellie on the side of the road. He's immediately soft. Meanwhile, she has to learn how to trust him.

Summary
"I'll leave you to it then. Maria and Ellie will guide you along." Tess said, her voice still stern. I guess it'll take a while to get on her good side. You nodded with a small scoff.
"So Ellie is also shooting?" You mused with a hard expression on your face. That bitter coffee and the mention of Ellie didn't really lighten your day.
"One of the best." Tess said before turning to walk off. You glanced at the door. Before you could reach for the handle, the door swung open, almost colliding with your nose. Maria stood there with a smug expression on her face.
"Right on time." She grinned and stepped aside to give you space to enter. You looked down at your feet as you stepped in, then stole a glance at Maria. Once you finally looked up, you saw it. A woman squinting her eyes aiming at a target.
Ellie.
It had to be her.
Almost as if on cue, she glanced up in your direction. God, this whole time, you'd just been bitter at the fact that there's someone so much better than you. You forgot the possibility that she could've been hot as hell. In this case- she fucking is.
And suddenly the name Ellie felt a bit more welcoming on your tongue.

Summary
Jade Grayson was raised in the peaceful Biltmore Estate settlement, nestled in the mountains of North Carolina. Kind-hearted, loyal, and haunted by a past soaked in betrayal, Jay’s life was shattered when raiders slaughtered her grandparents in a brutal ambush. In the aftermath, Jay left home, heartbroken and suicidal, wandering the wasteland with only her dog and horse, and a promise to scatter her family’s ashes at the Grand Canyon and end her story there.
Instead, she met Ellie Williams, jaded and angry at the world. At first, Ellie saw Jay as just another soft soul destined to die. But Jay wasn’t weak, she was quietly unbreakable.
Throughout their time surviving together, Jay slowly cracked Ellie’s shell. She saw Ellie and stayed even when Ellie tried to push her away. Jay didn’t demand Ellie’s heart; she waited for her to offer it. Their love grew in fragments. They faced raiders, illness, survivor’s guilt, and the ghosts of the past. Ellie’s nightmares. Jay’s depressive episodes.
Jay showed Ellie that softness could be a strength. Ellie showed Jay that broken things could still protect. And together, they found a reason to believe in something bigger than survival.

Summary
'You are my sunshine, my precious sunshine
You brighten my day when skies are grey,'She butted her sweet little head into Ellie's side, feverish forehead smearing sweat across the faded tshirt.
"Fuck, you're warm."
Ellie chewed her lip with growing anxiety, pale hands pressed against the brown chubby cheeks radiating heat. She whined in response, batting her arms away with pathetic weakness.
"Hey, I know you don't like it..."
Ellie sighed, pulling her on her hip with great ease. She'd stripped the curlyknob down to one of Ellie's vests, but she just wouldn't cool down. Ellie ran her remaining fingers through the matted mess of black frizz, attempting to soothe her pained whimpers.
"You're alright, hey...hey..."
Ellie trembling hand raised a bottle of water to her lips, coaxing her to drink. They had no medicine, no antibiotics. Ellie could only pray that she would pull through this. She had to.
'You'll never know dear, how much I love you,
Please don't take my sunshine away...'OR
Ellie finds her reason to keep going.

Summary
When an Omega is in severe distress, it's obvious - they become unable to eat, their scent shifts into something achingly sweet, and their throat punches out mournful chirps, all designed to attract pack members and mates to the Omega's aid, designed for the pack to spoon-feed and carry and cuddle and coddle the Omega. This is called a drop. Since Joel's murder, Ellie's been in that state twice - once when she had Dina, Jesse, and Tommy to watch over her and take care of her as they hunted down Abby, and then again now as she hunts Abby down on her own. But now she's alone. Her pack is completely gone, Jesse dead and Dina and Tommy despising her, Ellie even being kept away from her own pup, JJ. This state has gone on for months and no help is coming as Ellie becomes borderline catatonic.
Until Abby finds Ellie at death's door, and it doesn't matter if Ellie hates her, what kind of Alpha would she be to let an Omega suffer like that? Of course she has to treat the girl who wants her dead like she were Abby's own mate, recruiting Owen and Mel to help bring the little Omega back - what else is there to do?
(And even more important a question: is that situation the truth? Or is it just a dream?)

Summary
The woman whips around, and yeah, she looks like she could be in her mid thirties, but Ellie is so confused because Joel never would have left her if there was even a chance Sarah were alive, he wouldn’t have abandoned her, and Ellie swings the scope back to Joel to see if she can read his face, but he’s facing the wrong way, and he’s hunched over like he’s physically in pain and—
“Daddy?”
She starts to move, slowly, towards Joel, taking halting steps like she thinks he’ll disappear. He doesn’t move at all.
Distantly, Ellie hears Anna radioing for Tommy.
“Daddy?” she asks again, and Ellie registers her southern drawl, even more pronounced than Joel and Tommy’s. She sounds like Scarlett O’Hara. Tommy made her watch Gone with the Wind last month, after Ellie had missed it on movie night.
Joel still hasn’t moved. Sarah doesn’t step any closer to him.
They just stand there, in a stalemate.
Joel is breaking down.

Summary
“I said-” she looked down at them through the barrel of the rifle, shaking slightly from what could be the cold or nerves “-drop your fucking weapons, I mean it, I will shoot”
Butcher saunters forwards, hands thrown up in a mockery of surrender.
“Look kid, we’ve dropped all our guns, even chucked my knife in there for ya. Now, do you want to tell us where the fuck you came from and how a fourteen year old girl got a hold of a gun? I knew you yanks were backwards bastards, but this just takes the fucking cake.”
***
What if after Joel fell on the Rebar, instead of Ellie running into David she is unknowingly teleported to The Boys universe and runs into Butcher and the gang? Based on the game, but will still make sense if you have only seen the show.

Summary
Death was a kindness too sweet to even dream about.
Jackson, Wyoming was an oasis in a world split between infected, raiders, and slavers. Her life was split into before and after. Not before and after the outbreak. But before and after her name was taken.
Before and after darkness became a refuge instead of a nightmare. Nothing could change the past. Nothing could change who she had become. Who she had to hide from the light.
There seemed to be one person she didn’t have to hide from: Joel Miller.

Summary
She was there, a blurred silhouette in his green flannel, gun still raised.
She turned and fired at the front of the room, hitting the last man charging in. His body thudded to the tile.
In the new silence, one man lay gasping on the floor. She walked toward him, slow and purposeful.
Joel sat up, breath ragged, and watched.

AKA Joel finds Ellie, mute and traumatized, as he heads west. It’s going to be an emotional roller coaster my dudes. -

Summary
Lycanthropes, while few and far between, exist alongside humans, cohabiting civilization as well as they can with the social challenges of being 'other.' Joel and the Millers are among this small demographic, and while life is hard, they have their little pack and are surviving - at least, until the outbreak happens.
(Basically, TLOU + werewolves = this)
On temporary hiatus thanks to writer's block!

Summary
She worked slowly, methodically. Something about brushing down the horses, checking hooves, refilling feed—it was one of the only things that made sense anymore. Simple. Predictable.
She was halfway through hauling a new bag of oats when she heard a voice behind her, friendly but unfamiliar.
“Hey there.”
Ellie jumped, dropping the bag. She found a man standing just inside the barn doors. Maybe in his early thirties. Taller than her, wearing a thick coat dusted with snow. His smile was a little too wide.

Summary
A foster AU because I’m such a sucker for those and I want to believe Ellie and Joel would have found each other in a non-apocalyptic world, just in a slightly different setting.
Written from both POVs and maybe from Tommy’s too, somewhere down the line.
Intro
Joel Miller’s routine hasn‘t changed greatly in four years.
He goes to work, mostly overseeing construction, he goes home and eats something microwavable, drinks a few cans of cheap beer and falls into bed half drunk and exhausted from a days work, desperate to feel as little as possible.
Then, most nights, the nightmares he tries to chase away with alcohol succeed in waking him anyway, so he takes some sleeping pills to fall into dull, dreamless darkness, only to be woken by the sound of his alarm.So, really, he could use a change.
He still fights it like a feral cat.

Summary
“Play...?” Ellie says, between a nervous laugh and a choked curse. “Time doesn’t play with anyone. It just... tears away what you love. Devours. Leaves you with what’s left.”
The crow leans more on the branch, curious. Its eyes shine for a moment — not with light, but with memory.
“What if there was a moment, just one, when it bowed? For you.”
Silence.
Ellie doesn’t blink.
“Am I hearing you wrong or are you saying I can... go back?”
“No. Not go back. Going back is for those who flee.”
The crow spreads its wings, slow like black veils unfurling.
The sky seems to darken for a moment — or maybe it’s just the pain in her head. The hunger. The guilt. The memories.
“But you can redo. A specific point. A single thread woven into the rotten fabric of your history. Choose wisely, for time offers no second chances. Not even to you, child marked by the end.”
\\ Or which one where Ellie gets a second chance.

Summary
In the end they let her go without a bullet in her head – which is a small mercy really – but Ellie knows that it's far from over.
