#joel taking her back.

[skoulsons]

I want you all to know how horribly sick my header makes me. it. it absolutely wrecks me every time. and it’s so much better to watch as a video. to watch joel pull her up on callus with him. the deep exhale she lets out, gazing up at him briefly and looking like this. after arguing at the ranch not that long before this, she looks at him like this. he takes her back. “ellie, get off your horse” and her look of absolute surprise and hope as she watches him in complete disbelief to the point where he has to urge her on because she’s just so stuck that he changed his mind. the fact that he can’t see her at all once she’s behind him and there’s at least two moments where she looks at him and smiles, complete trust and love in her expression.

Anyway game joel chooses ellie and show ellie chooses joel I think that’s cute.

#like #it’s so incredible to me #I know this scene by heart #I know it so so well #and it never fails to get to me #but it’s the way she looks at him #it’s both of them really #joel taking her back. #pulling her up with him. #knowing she’d come with him and seeing how upset she was #and he chooses her #and then how she accepts it immediately #her expression saying everything #and tommy being like “’there’s a place for you here y’now’ #and Joel just nods and is like #yeah me and the rascal will be back soon don’t you worry #keep that house of ours unoccupied #idk. makes me sad makes me happy makes me really really sad #because he’s dead and she’ll never get the chance to look at him like this again #unless in the goofy daydreams where she dies and they meet in the afterlife #the last of us #the last of us part 1 #joel miller #ellie williams

cw; dilf! ushijima + age gaps + mentions of single mothers + reader is mentioned to have long nails + f! reader

resident dilf ushijima who is known around the neighborhood as someone who is dependable, willing to help anyone at any time of day- is lusted and sought after from all the single mothers desperate for someone like him who knows everything there is to know.

it takes just a day of you moving in to the cozy neighborhood to listen into the whispers and stories about how great this 'wakatoshi' is- hearing stories about him offering a helping hand to fix broken appliances, of taking care of overgrown lawns and even babysitting for family emergencies from mothers at their wits end.

and it takes just a couple more days for him to appear at your door, asking if you needed help moving in heavier furniture. the sun beating down onto his body while you stand at the door mouth open, knowing now just how accurate everyone's descriptions of him were.

he was tall, a body well taken care of, rounded out with age, hair dusted with strands of grey laying against a pretty green.

and he stands there- like you do, admiring the pretty little thing that moved in to what he perceived as 'his' neighborhood. stomach dropping at the fact that just by a glance, he was attracted to you.

a pretty smile stretched out on lips that he wanted nothing more than to kiss, wondering if they tasted as soft as they looked. waiting for you to take him up on your offer, knowing now that this would be too dangerous for him.

his name was known around here, and while those who openly lusted after him made grandeur stories of fantasies they had of him. they were just that- stories.

but with you, the way you smiled politely and nodded your head with enthusiasm, nails pretty and manicured pushing the door the rest of the way for him, too trusting.

it was easy to follow you- trying, honestly trying to keep his eyes along the curve of your back and not anywhere lower, no matter how much he wanted to. he kept reminding himself he had a reputation to uphold, someone people could count on.

but as you walked on and on, showing him the dresser you needed help getting into your room- giggling, placing a hand on his bicep and assuring yourself out loud before him that,

"you wont have a problem moving this?" voice saccharine, tugging at the strings of his heart, and stirring a heat hes always tempered down.

"i won't, you can sit back and look pretty." he murmured, watching with amusement with how you simpered back down into yourself, eyes widening- lips popping open while a choked murmur of something caught in your throat.

smiling to himself, proud that he kept some of his charm in his age- watching while you sat on top of the kitchen counter, legs swinging.

knowing he had your attention and gaze, wondering if youd be comfortable against the counter with your legs slung up against his shoulders after he helped with your furniture.

#this was directly inspired by tlou when joel told that lady to get back into her house and lock the doors #take me out and shoot me like old yeller #i might continue this but who knows #ushijima #ushijima wakatoshi #ushijima x you #ushijima x reader #ushijima x y/n

okay but a fic following tommy in jackson as he watches sarah’s look-alike grow up and have her baby. maybe he develops his own relationship with this girl and her kid, and it helps him deal with losing sarah??????? perhaps????? stay with me!

like we see how hard it was for joel to see her just once in 1x06. assuming tommy’s been in jackson for years, which i do, he has probably watched this young woman grow into an adult, getting struck with that pain of distant familiarity every single time he sees her. i imagine it would lowkey torture him until he truly confronts his grief over sarah and the life she could’ve lived

and imagine when she—im gonna name her kiara bc i hate when characters don’t have names—gets pregnant. tommy has to watch as kiara’s belly gets bigger and bigger, watch as the jackson community frets over her hand and foot because jackson takes extra special care of it’s pregnant residents, watch from the sidelines as kiara gets a future that sarah will never have while looking just like her

but THEN maybe he gets to know her a little bit???? maybe kiara knows he does housework and eventually asks maria if anyone can help fix-up and baby-proof her little two-bedroom house to prepare for the little one. maria knows tommy would be the perfect man for the job, but she also knows that he keeps careful distance from kiara on purpose

she sees the way his shoulders tense and his easy expression drops every time she’s in his line of sight. she saw how one time, when kiara had come over to talk to maria while she was sitting with him, tommy could barely handle looking at her up close: he ended up staring at his plate and clearing it—even the squash medley, which she knows he fucking hates—until he had reason to leave the hall completely.

but there truly is no one else she would rather help kiara; the only other person that does housework as good as tommy is fuckin jacob, and jacob is seth’s best friend, which means he’s a lowkey bigoted asshole that will only do “favors” for maria if he gets something in return. she, frankly, doesn’t want him anywhere near kiara. so maria still talks to tommy about it, and because he’s the most selfless loving man she’s ever met, he agrees. they talk about backup plans and what tommy should do if he gets too triggered—they’ve been working at distress tolerance and detecting when his mind is going fuzzy, so he knows to get straight to their home and wait for maria when it happens. privately, maria talks to kiara and tells her that tommy is still dealing with some stuff that triggers him and might need breaks once in ahwile; she knows to go get maria immediately if this happens

so tommy helps kiara out, and along the way they get to talking and being more friendly with each other. kiara reveals that she’s extremely nervous to be a mom, that she’s doing it alone (the asshole that was with her split jackson when he foundnout because men still be menning in their apocalypse). she tells tommy that she’s never been more scared to do anything in her whole life, and she lived alone as a young girl in FEDRA-run QZ

and suddenly, tommy realizes he has had almost this exact conversation before. with joel. he remembers standing by and watching joel freak out over baby-proofing their place, raving and ranting: how am i supposed to do this, tommy? we have too many fucking cabinets—look at all of these fucking cabinets! aye, im gonna ruin her. and tommy had been speechless in the face of all that fear. he knows how scared they both were, and he knows what he would’ve wanted to hear then, too. with the gift of time and wisdom, he finally knows what to say

so he comforts kiara, and by some miracle, it actually works. he tells her about joel raising sarah alone, and how terrifying it all seemed, right up until she actually got to them: he tells her how all that terror turned into love the moment he held that little ray of sunshine in his arms. he tells her about how sarah used to be what he and joel called a boo-boo magnet, constantly falling over and knocking into shit, always having bumps, scrapes, and bruises as a result. most importantly, he told kiara, she was always just fine: as long as she felt loved, sarah was always just fine. kiara’s baby would be just fine, too

and this convo changes kiara’s whole perspective, her whole vibe. tommy see’s the difference in her now, when he spots her in the dining hall or walking across town with a hand on her belly, tense with excitement instead of anxiety. he feels the difference in himself, too: he’s no longer struck with the abstract pain of remembrance as he sees her, now. he just feels honest friendship, true familiarity, and a rush of fond protectiveness for her that reminds him of the way he felt for sarah. it doesn’t hurt, or at least not the same way. it feels good, knowing kiara as kiara, not as the ghost of his niece. it feels right

she always makes sure to stop and talk to him when they cross paths, asking him about his work around town (or teasing him about he and maria, because at this point they’re trying to keep it lowkey but. kiara knows. talia knows. half of jackson suspects it and kiara wants the inside scoop okay so SPILL tommy just tell me!!!!!). somehow, tommy has developed a good relationship with the girl he thought he’d never have the guts to speak to

when kiara is on her last couple weeks of pregnancy, mostly bedridden and definitely ready to give birth, she asks tommy to stop by once every few days to have lunch or dinner with her. it always suprises him, but he always goes. they talk mostly about raising children: how different it seems to be post-2003, how scared kiara still is even despite her new confidence, how tumultuous sarah’s first few months were. he realizes, later, that he hasn’t talked about sarah this much to anyone but maria since she’s passed. he finds their conversations ease the ache in him more than avoiding kiara ever could’ve

when kiara has the baby, tommy accidentally becomes a quasi-godfather-uncle-grandparent without even having been asked. it’s clear that, from their time together, kiara is very fond of him—judging from the way her baby, kelsey, always settles down and stares at him in wonder whenever he’s around, it’s clear she likes him too. when kelsey becomes old enough to smile, she’s never ever around tommy without grinning and giggling, enamored by his silly face and silly voice and silly mustache, which she’s always trying to pull off. when kelsey becomes old enough to walk, kiara can’t bring her anywhere near tommy without the toddler trying her best to baby-sprint over to him. more than once, she’s fallen smack-down onto her face and gotten right back up, arms outstretched to tommy as she continues determinedly to toddle over. when kelsey becomes old enough to speak, she’s constantly calling for him and babbling to him when kiara finally brings her over. kelsey can’t even really pronounce her t’s until she’s three, so for awhile she calls tommy “mommy,” and kiara thinks it’s hilarious. she’s called mama anyway, so it doesn’t really matter to her that her baby calls this semi-random grown man mommy. everytime, it makes tommy want to simultaneously laugh and cry

by the time joel shows up, kelsey is six and not-so-obsessed with tommy anymore. her and kiara still join him and maria for dinner at least once a month, and kelsey has distant memories of calling tommy mommy, then uncle mommy, then finally naming him tim-tam-tommy when she turned four, the nickname for him that still stuck. he thinks about warning joel about her, when they talk in the bar, because he sure as hell could’ve used a goddamn warning—but the conversation goes left, so they never get there.

when joel sees kiara and kelsey for the first time, it’s hits him as hard as it once did tommy

tagging @ameerawrites because i feel like u always indulge in tommy trauma brainrot with me and @clickergossip bc this idea started on tommy day :)

#oKAY WOAH #didnt meant to outline this whole thing as i was eating my cereal #shit is soggy now 😭😭😭 #kiara and kelsey #my beloveds i lowkey loveeeeee coming up with backstories for barely-there characters #kev and kiara would be best friends btw #im just imagining little kelsey having this really cool relationship with tommy who is technically old rnought to be her grandpappy #the jackson community just communally raising their young and taking care of their pregnant caretakers is very important to me #tlou #tlou au #the tispy bison #tommy miller #tommy miller power hour #maria miller #tommy x maria #the idea of them discussing coping strategies for tommy means soooooo much to me #maria probably gets triggered like everytime she hears a baby cry she woukd def have to have some techniques in her back pocket #tommy and kiara #joel miller #sarah miller #tommy x sarah #ig this explores their relationship a little #i would def want flashbacks if i write the full fic like i want more tommy/sarah content so bad #that was HIS BABY TOO #the millers

[ivystitches]

no but really imagine. you’re a dad, your kid’s in the hospital for a non fatal surgery and then you find out that the doctors actually plan on killing her, and that your kid’s doing the surgery with no knowledge of that fact. shit i’d go fucking feral too

#that’s a child #and you think that the child doesn’t have anyone else looking out for her and you’re taking advantage of that #yeah joel was selfish #but ellie deserved for someone to be selfish for her in that moment #they’re living in the past and trying to bring back a life that’s never coming back #the uninfected have been shown to be so much worse than the infected #what are you trying to do #who are you trying to save #why did you get to decide that this little traumatized girl has to lose her life for you to get back something that you want #without letting her know that she was being sacrificed like a lamb at the altar #i’m a joel miller defender btw if it wasn’t clear #but to be fair i actually haven’t seen anyone else say the contrary either #at least not on tumblr #joel miller #tlou #tlou series #tlou hbo #joel tlou #ellie tlou #pedro pascal #bella ramsey #the last of us

[mirananananan]

just desperately need to type out some thoughts for this wip, gonna do it in the tags, don't mind me

#trying to make sure that i am doing this david plot line justice in this au #like i want it to still make sense #so in my head i'm thinking this is actually about 2 weeks AFTER when it would have been in canon #and david's group is more desperate now #they had sent out raiders to go to the university in colorado #but now they are starting to wander further north and end up getting too close for comfort to jackson #paired with ellie getting lost in the woods after splitting off from her friends #and then here we are #there's a snow storm because of course there is #so david + group convince her to take shelter with them in an old barn & ellie has significantly less street smarts #others leave to go back to camp for supplies #enter joel & tommy #enter killing david scene #i have so much to do #fanfic writing

[skoulsons]

Seeing Joel become increasingly more soft with each episode is really wrecking me. In the way he speaks to her, and physically

“You need to stop talking about this kid like she’s got some kind of life in front of her!” Oh ho HO just you wait, mr miller. you’re gonna give that kid the life you swore she’d didn’t have.

“You’re cargo.” And how he doesn’t even believe it. How he’s just saying it as if he’s putting scotch tape under a saw blade. It won’t last.

That to “Ellie. Are you okay?” And moving to embrace her. Because she’s becoming his life. She does have a life in front of her. And it’s him.

How he throws her into a wall and hurts her shoulder when they first meet. How she purposely shoves his shoulder just to piss him off. How he points a gun right at her, threatening her life.

How he yanks his hand away after helping her up. How that instinct kicked in to aid her, but she second he was aware of what he was doing, he pulls away. But how he lingers on it, still.

How he has his arm above both of them, pushing the clicker away from her but letting it get eerily close to his face. How he grabs and pushes her behind him when a clicker comes running. How he pulls her back from infected at the state house. How that protection starts to seep through his hard outer walls

How he shows her what a seatbelt is. How he reaches over her when he literally didn’t need to at all. He could’ve tugged his own out in front of his chest so she could follow suite and find where it is. But no, the same man who wouldn’t dare grab her hand to help her up, is reaching across her and their heads damn near touch so he can show her what a seatbelt is. So she’s safe.

How he so, so gently, grabs and guides her hands to her Beretta, showing her how to hold it so it can’t be taken out of her grip easily. How he, again, didn’t really have to. At least didn’t need to hold them as long as he did. He’s so sentimental. How he boosts her up. “I got you.”

How he protects her. Wordlessly, now. They don’t need to speak it. He just does it. Because it’s him. And because it’s her. Because, while he may need to, he wants to. And she trusts him to, 100%. Because he’s proven he can be trusted, and she’s given him every reason to want to protect her

#don’t ship them. I’ll bite your fingers off like carrots #sentimental? I don’t think that’s the word I’m looking for but I’m dead tired so forgive me #im studying but took a break bc I was thinking about them #surprise surprise #I don’t know I’m sad and impatient for Sunday #more tender joel ! more tender joel ! more tender joel ! #the increasing tender joel we get in ep6 is him taking her back and helping her up on Callus and smiling at her #right. RIGHT? #it better be. #the last of us hbo #joel miller #ellie williams #tlou spoilers

[rise-my-angel]

the show: heres a more realistic take on joel, with physical limitations when exhausted after a violent altercation, accidentally gets the jump on him through no fault of his own, and showing how actually difficult it can be to overpower someone when you werent expecting to get jumped no matter how capable you are, and how decades long exposure to close range gunfire will gradually effect the effectiveness of the closest eardrum instead of pretending that guns arent dangerously loud

gamer dudes, missing the point of the show displaying what a real man like joel would be like beacuse isn't no one is an unstoppable action man: "they nerfed our boy hes not badass anymore"

me:

#tlou spoilers #the last of us spoilers #hes not supposed to be a bad ass its showing that even the most capable of survivors suffer from the damage of an aggressive lifestyle #joel is shown with physical flaws that dont take away from how much of a skilled protector he is #and it shows that ellie realized in that moment that she doesn't just want joel to protect her #she wants to protect him right back

[reigenagain]

I think the thing that gets me the most re: if a vaccine would work in tlou is that even if they DID get one, and it DID work, how are we sure that the literal fascists government in play won’t monetize/gatekeep it?

we already have issues with health care and medicine being kept from people who need it, we’re shown fedra keeps supplies/food/other necessities from survivors. we’re shown that the fireflies are on their last legs, with no outward reach. how the hell would they be able to distribute a vaccine with their limited resources without fedra taking over?

the desperation of finally having a lead into a cure blinded a lot of perception. idk it’s like.. even if it worked and the infected were wiped out, there’s worst things out there than infected

#the last of us #the last of us spoilers #I’m sure this isn’t a New Take but #like yes I’m a joel apologist but I’m also a ellie deserves to be mad and distrustful truther #marlene and the rest of the fireflies are looking at the now they’ve been here since the beginning and just want the senseless death to end #Joel as a parent is looking to the future and can’t see one without Ellie #marlene says that even if joel saved ellie whose to say an infected or raider wont kill her #the big thing here is a vaccine won’t get rid of raiders #it’ll make it WORSE more likely #everyone wanted things to go back to normal but there is no going back oh fuck oh shit it just got to real #fuck I gotta go lie down

[deanpinterester]

given that joel and ellie are less than a week's ride away from jackson wyoming, i wonder if the next episode is going to be ellie trying to make her way back on her own to get help, and along the way is when she runs into david and co. we wouldn't have the winter timeskip in this scenario, but we'd still have ellie trying to be self sufficient to save joel, which is the same gist

#uhhhh me #tlou #this is probably just the constant problem solver running in my mind lol #my question was 'if they're not That far from tommy what's stopping ellie from going back for help' #the answer is 'ellie doesn't want to leave joel even for a few days in case he needs her help' #but i noticed in the show they're trying to quote unquote 'fix' some less realistic stuff the game had #e.g. ellie and riley only having to fight one (1) infected instead of a horde #and joel getting stabbed normally instead of falling off a balcony and getting run through with a rebar #i can see them thinking joel surviving in that fevered semiunconscious state for Months is unrealistic #therefore hereto ergo #it's a big possibility they'd take out the timeskip entirely #which is what led me to thinking this post #if that made any sense LMAO

Okay but Ellie who hates horror movies she likes action movies but horror movies are terrifying, yet she's still watches them with Sarah because she wants to bond with her big sister and Sarah absolutely loves those movies.

Joel putting up with one kid sleeping in his room half the time the girls have the girls night because Ellie gets nightmares from those damn movies but she refuses to not watch him with Sarah and refuses to tell Sarah that they scare her.

joel going out that night: be safe, girls!!!!there’s food in the fridge, and tommy’s comin’ to check in on y’all in a few hours, okay?

sarah and ellie: okay!!!!

joel: and sarah! do NOT let ellie watch any scary movies!!! you know she gets scared!

ellie: i don’t gET SCARED 😡🤬

joel: don’t watch any scary movies!!!! only somethin’ fun!!!!!!!

sarah: but DAD 😏 scary movies ARE fun

joel: NO scary movies. im warnin’ you

sarah: ugh okayyyuh

sarah and ellie, later that night, when ellie has a nightmare and needs sarah to go get joel:

#ellie would definitely get nightmares from scary movies as a baby while sarah has fun dreams abt them #homegirls just has especially strong visual memory and intrusive thoughts and a vivid imagination #that is a nightmare cocktail #i feel bad but ive just always had a hc thay ellie has bad dreams #on the flipside sarah getting creepily immense joy out of scary horror stuff is SO FUN #she just has a phase as a little where she finds a bunch of tommys really intense horror books and animes #she gets really into the visuals of them and likes all the blacks and reds and faces #tommy tries to keep them away from her but when he tries to take his copy of spooky scary stories from her she starts crying so #he started letting her book browse through them in secret but of course joel finds out #when she complains that the books at school are boring because there are no demons or monsters like uncle tommys #tommy in the back: 😰 #joel: 🙃 #sarah: 😃💭👹 #spooky sarah #the tipsy bison #ellie and sarah #the miller sisters #oooooo i need to use that tag

[pettyprocrastination]

The way I kept thinking of your Saturn, Inverted!Frankie while watching Joel… viciously protective father who would do, would have done, anything for his girl…

okay but the moment he showed up on screen i was like 'thats frankie and katie. oh my god' and immediately went to screeching about it with @joel-mlller because the actress for sarah is also how I imagine katie to look when she was younger!!!

I'm so happy that you remember that story <3

#ask #asks #i love family dynamics in horror its my bread n butter babeyyy #katie kat core #im still waiting back to hear from the lit journal i submitted the story to and itll take like another two months for them to #let me know if ive been accepted or not and im biting my nails over it lmao #i kinda just want them to send me the rejection letter now to get it over with lmaoo the anticipation is the hardest part #but i keep rewatching the beginning of the episode because..that frankie and katie #and i also like. cant stop thinking about what could have been #had sarah survived. she joel and tommy navigating this new cruel world with one another #where a little girl has to see and accept this new side of her father that shes never seen before but he'll do everything in his power #to keep her safe #i just really want to read about sarah not dying lmao
