Summary
There was a moment where everyone stilled after the two kids boarded.
She almost didn’t recognize the girl at first. Unruly dark hair and auburn eyes were nothing if not common. But the rage and hurt and insistence embedded within them told Sasha everything she needed to know. It was time for the universe to collect.
The silence that once seized the room was quickly replaced by a frustrated scream and a sharp, definitive bang.
- or the one where Mikasa almost loses the only bright source in her life. -

“I don’t need something bigger than me,” he finally said.
“Why not?”
Richie turned to face Eddie, “I have you don’t I? I believe in you.”
- or the one where Richie and Eddie spend another Christmas together, but this year they break tradition. -

Summary
Eddie looked at him again – traced the curve of his nose and lips with his eyes. He took in the way the light flooded over his form from where it broke through leaves in the tree. He tracked the steady rise and fall of Richie’s chest.
You are the only exception. And I’m on my way to believing.
Eddie shook his head, smiled to himself, and whispered, “It’s a secret.”
- or the four seasons in which Eddie fell in love -

Summary
“Eddie…” he breathed, but everything in that moment felt so heavy. Richie was so tired, and Eddie kept rubbing those gentle circles on his cheek. His bones ached and his face hurt and he knew that he couldn’t keep his eyes open for much longer.
Eddie’s expression was so open and honest.
“I wouldn’t ever forget you.”
Richie was asleep before he could even get the letter “I” out of his mouth.
- or the five times in which Richie tries to tell Eddie he loves him, and the one where he actually does -

Summary
“I’m going home in a few days, and I think I’ll just stay there until this whole thing is finished. You guys don’t really need me for any of it,” Lance finished, wiping away ghost tears on his flushed face.
He didn’t turn to look at Keith. He didn’t falter when he heard his name fall from the other boy’s lips. He didn’t slow to a stop until he was already safely tucked inside his empty room.
Lance couldn’t be here anymore. He didn’t need to be there. He needed to leave, he needed to go home. And he would.
The catch was that he’d never come back.
- or the one where Lance wants to stay because he thinks he’s not important and Keith shows him he’s wrong -

Summary
“Yeah but they don’t have the fucking balls to come in here after me, especially not if you’re here.”
“And what if I’m not, one day? I don’t live here you know, kid.”
“Ellie,” she corrects him, unaware that Joel already knows her name from the first night those kids were after her, “my name is Ellie.”
He waves her words away. “My point still stands.”
(modern AU where Ellie keeps finding her way to Joel's worksite)

Summary
“It’s not for you.”
That shuts off her stream of words at once. He resists the urge to blink back at her in surprise. He hadn’t known he was going to say that until he said it. Seeing the way her shoulders have lost some of their tension, though, he knows at once that it was the right call. It galls him a bit, what he’s about to say, twenty years of survival making him reticent to admit any weakness.
But fourteen years before that has him speaking anyway.
Ellie won’t admit her weaknesses. That’s fine. She’s clearly been knocked over hard by that fucking place. He can take the fall for this one, if that’s what it takes to get her somewhere safe, a place where he can tend her properly, can tuck her away in a soft bed in a safe town, can get some meat back on her bones.
Can–please God–get some life back in her eyes.
(after silver lake, joel and ellie return to jackson to recover)

Summary
“As I said, Williams,” he says briskly. “It wasn’t real. I just made a recommendation that you get a taste of what would happen if you don’t straighten up. It won’t go on your file, I promise.” He gives her a playfully stern look. “But now you see what’s going to happen if you don’t start listening and shaping up.”
She’s embarrassed by how sharp the stab of betrayal she feels is. God. She should know better by now. She’s too old to fall for this shit.
“You understand me?” He asks, face still as open and unbothered as it’s ever been. Why wouldn’t it be, after all? He’s done his job, keeping kids like her in line, reminding them that they’re here as a privilege, not a right.
She grits her teeth against what wants to come out.
“Yes, sir,” she says tightly.
If she has her way, she knows that she will never set foot in this office again.
(5 adults who weren't what ellie needed and 1 who was)

Summary
“You don’t even know what I did,” she whimpers, and Joel asks:
“Do you- wanna tell me?”
He’s not sure he’s ready to hear it; he’s not sure he’ll ever be ready to hear, he thinks, but his needs dim mightily in comparison to the needs of his girl. Always has, always will. That’s the way this thing works, after all, isn’t it?

Summary
“Can I ask you a question?” Ellie asks when Joel meets her eyes. She juggles the soccer ball in her hands, dropping it several times before accepting defeat and kicking it back into the grass.
“No.”
“Do you ever take that cowboy hat off?” she continues.
(or, Joel's a cowboy, and Ellie wants him to take her to Colorado)
