    Summary

    “What the fuck happened?” asked Ellie waking up.

    “What’s the last thing you remember?”

    “We were telling puns and then there was a grenade,” she said.

    Nodding, Joel said, “That was the Fireflies. They knocked us out. I woke up. Marlene told me that they didn’t have a plan for a cure. They didn’t have a roadmap at all. Their plan was to kill you and look at your brain and see if it told them anything. And I know that you are willing to die for a cure. But the thing was, she was saying they thought there were cordyceps in your brain. If it’s in your brain, it’s in your spinal fluid. They don’t have to kill you to get that. They were idiots, and their only plan was murder. So, now, we have what research they did on cordyceps, we have all of their medical supplies and we are going to Jackson to see if they have any doctor or know where we can head to. I know you want to save the world; I believe you will. But them butchering you wasn’t the way to do it.”

    (Joel makes choices based not just on emotion but on medical knowledge that he has because Sarah's mother had cancer. Then we get a whole new story as they head to Jackson without secrets between them. This is an AU set before TLOU 2.)

    Summary

    “You did do good,” Joel says. “You did almost all of it. That’s how you learn. If you got it right the first time, what would you need me for?”
    Ellie grins for real at that. “Who says I need you, anyway?”

    Summary

    September has always been Ellie’s favorite. Favorite month-name, favorite time of year, favorite feeling. In Jackson, September is golden and sweet. Yellow leaves, red apples, the dew in the high grass cold on her ankles. Everyone is ready for things to begin.

    It never bothered her, before, that September is when things start to die.

    Or, Ellie is trying to begin again, but the past won't stay past.

    Summary

    Tess wasn’t his. She didn’t belong to him, and he didn’t belong to...anyone, really.

    Still, there were times where she had to use perhaps too much charm on other men to get them what they needed. He pretended like this didn’t bother him, just like she pretended it was coincidental that he was always insatiable after, pulling her toward him the second they walked through the door to their apartment.
