Summary
“It’s just—look, guys do this kind of stuff with each other all the time, right? I mean, they help each other with this sort of…stuff when it comes to girls. Or whatever.” Mike waves his hands around helplessly, like whatever is supposed to cover the fact that he just asked Will to be his personal kissing tutor-slash-crash-test-dummy. “And we—we aren’t even…like that, y’know. So it’s not like—it wouldn’t actually mean anything, it can just be—an experiment. Practice. Between us. Between friends.”
An experiment. AN EXPERIMENT. Cool. Yeah. No big deal. Definitely not the exact thing Will's thought about every night since, oh, forever. Not like Will’s been in love with Mike since we were twelve or anything. Nope. Totally chill. Totally fine.

Summary
Post-Finale. Belly and Conrad try to make sense of the last 24 hours while on a poorly-planned train ride to Brussels. After the mania? The inevitable comedown, and the cold reality of navigating their ongoing intimacy issues in a new city, with the stress of mundane life crowding in.
Luckily, they're both too stubborn to give up without a fight.
Angst, smut, and lots of emotional processing.

Summary
“You want us to foster a kid?” Mike finally asks, disbelieving. Will is half convinced that El will laugh in their faces, clearing up the misunderstanding with a, “No, silly. I want you to water my plants.”
“It doesn’t have to be forever,” El says. “Just until I can find another home for him. I can’t stand him living in the shelter anymore. Not right now. He needs emotional support. And don’t lie to me— I know you two have been wanting kids. This can be a trial run.”
—
Will and Mike are tasked with fostering an emotionally distant, judgmental, sassy twelve-year-old boy from El’s shelter. As hard as they try to win his heart, they seem to be making no progress. After all, how could two strangers earn the trust of a boy who’s been hurt time and time again?

Summary
“Don’t do that. Don’t be nice about it. You can be mad. It’s okay.”
“I am mad,” Will said. “But not about her. I’m mad you disappeared. I’m mad you stopped calling. I’m mad you didn’t show up when I invited you to my graduation. I’m mad that I had to hear from Jonathan that you got married. I’m mad you cut all of us off like it didn’t mean anything. But mostly I’m mad that you waited until your daughter was ten years old and missing to let me see you again.”
“I’m sorry.”
Will didn’t answer. The pause dragged too long. But then his voice came, even and low. “I know.”
; Years after trying to outrun the scars of Hawkins, Mike Wheeler is dragged back when his daughter vanishes without a trace. The past isn’t done with him — and neither is the boy he once braved the dark for.

“Samir, shut up. Anton, do you think he’s cute?”
“Huh?” Anton snaps out of his trance.
Issa huffs. “Do you think,” she shoves her phone in his face, “he’s cute?”
“Oh my god, I’ll tell you if you get out of my space for a second,” he squints and pushes her arm away, trying to get a good look at the picture. Good jawline, solid head of hair, nice muscles, kind eyes. He’s attractive, in a young Charlie Swan kind of way. He also looks potentially insufferable. The nail polish, the rings decorating one hand with an iced coffee in the other. Anton’s shocked that his crocheted sweater top isn’t adorned with the words ‘6’4 feminist.’

Summary
Shauna Shipman has her first (and God willing, last) kid at seventeen years old. Her parents raise Callie while she goes off to Brown. "Until you can support her," they say again and again.
And then college is over, and Shauna is back in town, trying to reconnect with the four-year-old daughter she barely knows. She's not sure she can support herself, let alone Callie.
But it just so happens Shauna knows Callie's Pre-K teacher pretty well already. Or did, anyway. Back before everything blew up.
"Miss Taylor," Callie calls her.
Frankly, Jackie is a lot better with kids than Shauna is.

Summary
And then soft, so soft Ellie barely hears from all the way over on her staircase, ear angled down towards the slats in the railing, breath held while awaiting a reply. She needs the truth, too. She deserves the truth. After all of this. The blood on her hands, on her face, on her memories. She gets to know why. Why after all this shit, none of it was even worth it.
What Ellie once believed to be heavy, uneven breathing, she comes to realize, is quiet, fractured sobbing. “I can’t lose her,” he confesses, an omission to what Ellie already knew from the second she woke up in the back of that car, woozy and light and empty. Bare legs, cold and exposed in a hospital gown. The whole car reeked of human blood and sweat, while her skin was the cleanest, the purest, it had been in months.
“I couldn’t let ‘em take her, Tommy.”
It’s all the answer she needs.
------
Through the seasons of Joel and Ellie's first year in Jackson. How the anger she feels at his betrayal wedges its way between them and how they find their way back together regardless.

Summary
Being the leader of a rebel group during the apocalypse is not an easy job, but getting an immune kid throughout the country was not part of his job description. He's the leader of the Fireflies, for God's sake, not a baby sitter for some smartass kid.
There's no one to blame but himself though, he chose to do this on his own. Himself.
Well, fuck him.
OR
Pretty much the same order of events that happen during TLOU but with Joel being the leader of the Fireflies. Things really do change because of that.
