Summary
On Monday morning, the first thing Dina does when she wakes up is check her phone.
There are two long texts from Jesse’s mom from last night, giving her review of the book she’d gifted her for her last birthday; one from Jesse from an hour ago, asking about her hours on Thursday; a missed call from Mel at some ungodly hour, probably to drunkenly gab about her deadbeat boyfriend; but still nothing from any unknown number.
Nothing from Ellie.

Ellie doesn't text.
(or, Dina pines. Hard.)

Summary
Ellie is now in her early 30 and works at NASA. She’s struggling with her adult life and the changes that come with it, but when the project she’s working on calls the attention of some people, Ellie will have to deal with the consequences of not facing the unresolved issues from her past.
Will it be the right time, this time?
Or a ‘WHAT IF’ to Orion’s Belt, where Ellie takes the scholarship and moves away.

Summary
Jackson’s resident sheep farmer is known across state lines as the most reclusive man in all of Wyoming. And Joel likes it that way.
That is until one summer, a Boston foster program busses out a batch of city kids to Jackson. Joel isn’t fond of the idea, but reasons that he could use the help. The coyotes have been picking off this year’s flock, and the barn needs to be patched up. For some free labor, he can handle one uptight city boy for the summer.
But they send him a girl instead.
-----
AU: Ellie’s summer foster program ships her to a ranch out in Jackson where a gruff sheep farmer is losing his flock to coyotes.

Summary
Luck is not chance—
It's Toil—
Fortune's expensive smile
Is earned—My take on what TLOU pt3 could be told from two perspectives. Ellie's POV is the main story while Dina's POV explores her past and what happens when Ellie becomes incompacitated.
Part 3 of this series is a sequel to the other two.

Summary
The girl didn’t move, only stared, until Ellie raised the talkie she stowed at her feet and made the call.
She was switched to a different position the rest of that night.
Later on, she would learn that the girl’s name was Dina.
She was seventeen.
And she was alone.
its cute i swear, just give it a shot

Summary
Up and down these roads they whisper
Of Willy the Kid, the Green-Eyed Stranger
They call him Jackson's finest son
The Ghost of Old Wyoming . . .
---
After Santa Barbara, Ellie needs an escape: from their family, from their own head, from the world. They leave with a rifle, a horse, and a promise: to figure out who they are on the open road or die trying. But the road tends to bring you places you'd never thought you'd go, and the West has always had a habit of making legends of mortal men.

Summary
****UPDATED VERSION RELEASING 07/08/25****
"Dina brought the button-up close to her face, slowly closed her eyes, and deeply breathed in the lingering scent.
It smelled like…
...like the earth out in the woods.
Like the soap they all shared in the bath, tinged with lavender.
Like the oil she had watched Ellie rub into the fretboard of her old guitar.
Like whiskey.
Like Ellie."
A slow burn, Dina-centric story, about whether or not love can ever find it's way back home through hurt and loss.
Complete.

“You don’t even know me.”
“So, what, I can’t want to get to know you?” Dina challenges her with a cocked eyebrow.
“Uh,” Ellie stutters. “I guess that’s your risk to take.”

A break from the apocalyptic setting, and a vacation into a whole other type of struggle. College isn't without its challenges, no matter how tough you think you are.

Summary
“Girl, there ain’t no I in team! And you can’t spell awesome without me!” Ellie belts.
“That’s such a stupid fuckin’ line,” Joel mutters after a swig of coffee, because he can’t handle early mornings and Taylor Swift at the same time without caffeine.
“It’s poetic genius,” Ellie says triumphantly. “Obviously.”
Or: Everything is the same, except Taylor Swift existed twenty years earlier— and Ellie’s obsessed.

Summary
She’s letting herself think about it, carefully, like the memories are a stray dog that might bite her outstretched hand at any moment. She’s thinking about the pattern of the freckles across her nose and the shape of her dumb, easy grin, and the way her hair would flash red in the sunlight from the window, when it was unkempt and wild from being tangled in Dina’s hands and--
It’s too fucking much. It’s too far. It’s too good, and those stray dog memories do what stray dogs do best--it clamps down on her, sinks teeth down deep, sends her into breathless agony.
So she's folding in on herself, as small as she can get, as if that might help--
it won't--
and she's giving in to the grief again.

Summary
The whole town couldn’t seem to stop talking about her coming. The immune girl. The one who brought them the cure. Dina doesn’t know what she thinks about it and she assumes the girl must be insufferable if people always talk about her like that.
And the girl is definitely what she expected when Dina finally sees her.
OR
Dina gets the cure several days after her 18th birthday. She is 20 when Ellie moves to Jackson. A canon divergent AU where Ellie reached the Fireflies in Salt Lake, stayed there for four years and shows up in Jackson with her meathead best friend in tow.
