Summary
“Joel, get Joel. Please.” Bile is rising in her throat. She swallows it back.
Ian makes a scoffing noise, taking a step closer. “Seriously, you’re fine. You just knocked it, that’s all. You go crying to your daddy every time you get a bruise?”
Ellie fucking doesn’t. Ian bruises her almost everyday, and she never cries.
Someone tries to make Ellie grow up too fast.
Ft. Worried Joel and a teddy bear named Fuckface

Summary
The dial tone resonates in every bone in her body. She thinks to where her pager sits buried in an unsuspecting pile of trinkets on the floor of her closet to keep curious and prying pre-teen eyes away. It’s time, she supposes.
“Fuck,” she mutters to herself.
“Everything okay?”
Maria jumps out of her skin and spins around to see an uncharacteristically stoic Carol standing much too far away from her. Carol leans back a little at her reaction, blinking.
or
carol comes back home in 1997, two years after the worst mistake of her life.

Summary
“I think I - fucked up my ankle.” She points to her left foot. “When I fell.”
Her remorse lies thick and rank between them. Joel imagines he can see it rotting there, in between shafts of honeyed sunlight. Shame, he thinks, fits her so poorly. He’s reminded of Kansas City, of her sitting her with her back to the newspaper lined window, chin on her knees, a single tear on her cheek as she tells him:
It wasn’t my first time.
Little girls, he thinks, have no business carrying that sort of regret. He has no business reading into it this way - thinking about all the tender spots Ellie’s got lying in ruin inside of her, all of the ways this world has failed her. All of the ways he’s failed her, all of the ways he might still. She’s only a job, he tells himself sternly. She’s cargo.
*
Joel patches Ellie up again, and again, and again.

Summary
The truth is, she isn’t sorry, and she doesn’t have to do this; she wants to. She could let it go and move on the way everyone else seems to be able to do, but her grip on revenge is sclerotic.
Or,
Ellie decides to get even but gets a girlfriend instead.
