Summary
All of your friends had something cute tattooed on the inside of their wrists. All of them had something soft, something endearing, that made them excited to meet their soulmate.
Caitlyn had ‘cupcake’ in a bright red on her left wrist, and Vi had ‘my love’ in a soft, deep blue (and the two of them were soulmates, because duh), but you? You had ‘fuck’ in a deep forest green, too dark to fully cover with any concealer no matter how hard you tried.
What batshit crazy soulmate did you have?

Summary
"“You bringin’ me fans now?” He asked Tess, his voice calm but tinged with weariness—no bitterness, just tired familiarity.
“Not just any fan, cowboy.” Tess smirked, placing a hand gently on Ellie’s back to encourage her forward. “Ellie’s with the FDA. Best junior driver we’ve had in years. And she’s name-dropped you in every interview since she was thirteen.”
Joel raised a brow, finally lowering the bottle for real. He gave Ellie a good look—awkward, but beaming like the sun just rose in her chest. Something soft crept into those hazel eyes of his. Something sad, too. Melancholy. He glanced at the watch on his wrist, and Tess didn’t need to read his mind. She knew where he’d gone in that moment, and her heart softened for him."
One year after losing his daughter, fallen champ Joel Miller makes a fiery comeback to F1 with Ferrari. Under the ruthless Theresa Servopoulos, he faces brutal rivalries, deadly plots, and a mysterious green-eyed young girl prodigy who could change everything. The race has only just begun.

Summary
Ellie slides into her place and picks up her spoon. “What’s this?”
“Porotos granados,” Tommy replies. He sits beside her, squeezing her shoulder as he passes. “Our mama used to make it. She was from-”
“Santiago,” Ellie volunteers. Tommy chuckles.
“Si, Santiago,” he agrees. He says it with a little lilt that’s so different from his normal drawl that it makes Ellie giggle. It’s still weird to her, how sometimes Tommy and Joel switch so easily from one dialect or language to the next. She doesn’t even mind when they talk Spanish around her to keep her from knowing their business. She likes the rapid fire cadence of their words, the way the vowels sound like sugar melting over hot coals on their tongues, the way Joel sucks his teeth and hisses, how Tommy’s voice goes higher when he’s joking. It’s weird sometimes to look around at all the ways her family doesn’t match each other and yet love each other so much. It shouldn’t make sense - they shouldn’t make sense - and still, they do.

Summary
Santa Barbara was supposed to be the end. The last time they’d ever see each other. The last time any of it would matter.
They’re all looking for something: peace, purpose, maybe redemption.
But wanting it doesn’t mean they deserve it.
And some ghosts don’t stay buried. -

Summary
Your hands were up, but that didn't seem to help in the slightest. The old man's eyes were harsh, critical, squinting as he held the gun's barrel high towards you. Running footfalls reached your ears and around a corner came a kid. Her eyes were wide as she took in the scene before her and you have the sense that she is just as shocked as you are.
"Joel!"

Summary
Apocalypse or not, some things never die. Grief. Fear. And sometimes… hope. Joel thought he had shut the door on fatherhood the day Sarah died. But a child comes knocking again—through the womb of a woman he never managed to love, nor hate. And this time, he won’t have the luxury of looking away.
"“I know, Tess, but I don’t know what the hell I’m supposed to do. I... I just can’t.” He swallowed hard, dropping his gaze like he was too damn ashamed to meet hers.
This wasn’t something they did. But Tess still reached out, placed a hand on his forearm — soft, almost tender.
“Can’t, or won’t, Texas?” She asked gently. When he didn’t look at her or answer, she put her hand under his chin and lifted his face.
She met his beautiful hazel eyes — lost, painfully broken. He looked damn near fragile. Vulnerable.
Tess made an unconscious promise then: she’d protect this man at his worst.
She felt his jaw tremble beneath her fingers and he finally whispered, “I can’t lose another one.”"
AU: An alternate universe where Joel is Ellie’s biological father, after a feelingless partnership with Anna that went wrong.

Summary
In Jackson, survival isn’t just about the infected—it’s about learning to live again.
You arrive in Jackson a shattered version of yourself—angry, haunted, and on edge. The quiet stability of the community is foreign, and though taking a job at the local school gives you a purpose, it doesn’t silence the ghosts of your past. No matter how hard you try to fit in, the townsfolk don’t seem to understand you. Frustration boils over, and when you lash out, you fear you’ve ruined any chance of belonging here.
But then there’s Joel. He keeps his distance, silent, unreadable and sometimes downright rude, but something about him feels familiar—like he might understand the weight you carry. Both used to pushing people away and burying your troubles, neither of you quite knows how to handle the weight of all these... feelings.
