Summary
Ellie sees something moving in the sky: a small, flappy bug. “What the fuck is that?”
Amber looks up, somewhat alarmed by the strong language, but calms down quickly. “Oh, that? That’s just a butterfly sweetie,” she says. To her credit, she doesn’t seem overly shocked that a fifteen-year-old would use the word “fuck” so casually. Not that Joel was either, but some of the other kids had been, when Joel had first brought her to Jackson, and Ellie had heard Tommy tell Joel that she was a “little firecracker”. Joel had explained it was because she said “I feel like fucking shit dude” when Tommy asked how she was feeling on their first full day in Jackson.
“Whoa.” Ellie can’t remember if she’s ever seen one before. She’s definitely seen moths, but not much else took residence in the Boston QZ. The butterfly is more colorful than the moths, though, which is why Ellie was so shocked to see it. It’s like someone took a moth and painted its wings.

ellie keeps seeing butterflies.

Summary
"In the world they were in, Ellie knew that you had to kill people to survive. It’s no surprise that she knew how to work a gun, or that she was able to stand up for herself, threaten violence if needed, but she had always thought that somehow, killing someone was off limits. You threaten, you never go through with it. She knew that Joel was violent too, that he had killed his fair share of people in order to protect her. It made Ellie feel sick. Especially when Joel would talk about Sarah like she was an angel. “She would never hurt a fly,” Joel would say when he talked about her, and his eyes would get all wistful.
Ellie would hurt a fly. She had hurt worse than a fly. She had killed a man, bashed his face in with a cleaver. She wasn’t Sarah, and if Sarah was the one that Joel loved, maybe he was just pretending. Maybe he was scared of her, the way that she was scared of herself. Once upon a time, Ellie would have wanted that. Before she let Joel into her life, all she wanted was to be feared. She couldn’t let people know that she was a scared little girl too."
or
Ellie is positive that she's a terrible person. Joel loves her anyway. Ellie doesn't think she deserves it. Joel loves her extra.

Summary
"Tony stared at the picture frame in his hand. He knew that picture too well by that point, but looked at it every so often to remind himself why he was fighting, as if he could ever really forget. Every minute of his life, Tony saw his face. They looked so carefree in that picture. It was before Thanos, before the snap, before everything had gone to shit right in front of them."
Or, Tony finds the picture of him and Peter and thinks about the night that Peter turned to dust right in front of him. Iron Dad and his Spidey-Son.

Summary
Inspired by Eleanor's lifetime ban from Build-A-Bear Workshop, I wanted to write something that explored that, but ended up turning it into a fluffier fic where Chidi and Eleanor are dating, and they go to Build-A-Bear.
