Summary
JJ meets the woman of the mountain and he swears she looks familiar - but he can't place where he's seen her before. She has a scar on her eyebrow, grey streaks in her hair, and a Hamsa charm around her wrist. It doesn't matter how many times he asks, his mom won't tell him a thing.

Summary
She turns back around and picks up Abby’s hands to try and rub warmth back into them. She very pointedly does not acknowledge the pang in her chest, and how much it feels like when she found her, starved and tied to a post. Then, Joel’s lessons on survival ring in her brain.
Warm the body first. Losing a finger or two ain’t nothing compared to dying. Okay? Dry heat until they are no longer in danger, and then move ‘em to a warm bath if ya have one on hand.
Abby isn’t going to get warm enough like this. Lying stiff on the ground, her eyes close as she loses consciousness again. Ellie presses her fingers to her pulse. It’s too slow. She’s still too cold.
There was, another bit of advice that Joel gave.
Now Ellie, sometimes you’re not gonna have enough blankets to get ‘em warm. Or maybe they don’t have much time. If that’s the case, body heat works well.
Ellie closes her eyes and swallows.
If she was going to go to all of this trouble to save Abby in the first place, she can’t just stop at the finish line.

Summary
Long version of my short drabble about post-canon Ellabs finding each other again in a small forestside town; how they don't really know how to act around each other at first, being rougher with eachother than they should be; how they walk the fine line between comfort and aggression, until it blurs and they find what's beyond

Summary
Unfortunate thief Simon picks the wrong person to rob, and makes a deal to save his life. He thought he would only be selling himself for the night, but it turns out to be for good. He is taken to a gated community where the residents can use him at will; and they do, repeatedly. He is used and abused, and slowly but surely loses himself.
Or: A man who didn't know what he was getting into is subjected to the dark whims of some very bad people.

Summary
"I remember you."
Ellie's head snaps up and over to where a girl's voice comes from, and she immediately regrets it when the world sways and her vision blurs.
"You're that girl from Jackson," the girl's bleary lips move, forming words that take Ellie a second to process. The name of Ellie's hometown back in Wyoming rings alarms in her head. How the fuck would anyone know that? She squints her eyes further, desperately trying to see who is chained up to the wall opposite from her. Is it one of Abby's friends? That's the only way someone would remember her.
When Ellie finally gets a good look at the girl's face, her heart pounds and her skin boils as white-hot rage floods through her body.
It's her.
"Abby." The name spills from Ellie's lips, sounding like a threat. She doesn't say her name with any ounce of uncertainty. She knows it's her. How could she ever forget that face? The face of Joel's killer that has haunted her nightmares for months.
(OR Ellie is captured by Scars on her third day in Seattle and thrown into the same cell as Abby.)
