    Summary

    “She knows her uncle Tommy, you’re not a stranger to her.” he says, begging Tommy with his eyes.

    His baby brother looks so different than he had six years ago. He’s grown the mustache out again.

    It’s filled in better this time.

    “What the fuck were you thinking Joel” Tommy's voice cracks. He looks at Joel like he’s been gutted.

    “Living” the reply is hoarse, he knows he’s not answering the question he was asked. Their eyes connect again, he sees the understanding shining in his brother’s eyes.

    “Living” Tommy echoes back.
    ——
    The modern au in which Joel is a firefighter thrust back into fatherhood at 36 by our favorite little shit Ellie, that literally no one asked for.

    Summary

    She didn’t know for how long it was that she just stayed there, unmoving, wishing she’d join the boulders near the beach.

    Her journey had finally come to an end, her quest for revenge had brought her here, to these Santa Barbara shores, where the land met the sea.

     

    or

    Ellie finds a way to keep going.

    Summary

    “I ain’t doing this to earn some sort of self-fulfillment. You’re a good kid, and turning eighteen doesn’t make you an adult.” The first wet arc of a tear rolls down her cheek, and he catches it with a dry thumb before it reaches her chin.

    “You are going to stumble, and I’d like to be there to catch you, if you will allow me to be.” Leaning her head back into the steady beat of his heart, she lets him rock her side to side as she cries, her arms slipping around his torso.

    --
    Joel and Ellie meet at an NA meeting. Joel is ten years sober, and Ellie is just four weeks clean. After begrudgingly becoming her sponsor, Joel finds himself stepping back into the shoes of a father for the first time in 15 years.
