Summary
“Christ, Tess, I thought you were in some kind of trouble. Do I look like a taxi service to you?” he asked.
She rolled her eyes to a sidelong glance. “No, Joel, I don’t need a ride for her, I need a place."
It took a beat for her words to sink in but when they did he pulled back half a step. “You want me to take the kid?”
“Just hear me out-”
“No.”

Summary
An hour from dawn, just as Ellie catches the first strains of fluting birdsong, she hears that rustle again. She keeps her eyes squeezed shut and holds very still as Joel’s boots crunch their way over the six feet of dead grass in between their sleeping spots; as he breathes in once, noisily, like he wants to say something; as something heavy and warm drops over her body.
Joel’s jacket doesn’t smell very nice—like him—but it’s better than nothing.
Ellie goes through the stages of infection.

Summary
“He’s trying to be here for you.”
That’s all he ever did, she thinks, fuming. Try. Try to make up for what he did. But he thinks he saved her life. He told her he’d do it again. He could try to talk to her, or try to be there for her, but, he never once considered that what she needed from him was the thing she fucking asked for. His trying was worse than if he just left her alone.
Ellie scoffs. “Can he stop?”
TLDR: Ellie gets bitten on patrol while she and Joel are still on the outs. Uncle Tommy to the rescue

Summary
Somewhere along the way, his girl’s gotten to believing that she’s a superhero. He doesn’t disagree, not necessarily, but he still sees the parts of her that are less man of steel and more little girl that grew up lonely and leans in to praise like a plant growing towards the sun. He sees it. Tommy and Maria see it. And evidently, Marshall fucking Green saw it.
Or, everyone has blind spots. Someone tries to exploit one of Ellie’s and its handled accordingly.
