She walked away, but the past never did.
In the ashes of ruined cities and ruined hearts, she's searching for something more than survival - she's chasing redemption.
Scars fade. But guilt? That stays.
She walked away from everything - blood, guilt, love. Now, with nothing but silence and scars, she takes the long road to redemption.
This is not a story about revenge.
This is a story about redemption... and maybe, healing.

Bite Before You Beg *One Shot*
Bite Before You Beg *smutty* (A "The Last of Us" Ellie x Reader Fanfic) The only thing worse than being stuck on patrol with Ellie Williams is realizing you'd rather throw her against a wall than shoot her. Y/N can fight off infected. She can outrun raiders. But surviving Ellie's smirks, sharp words, and too-close stares? That's a whole different war. Thrown together by bad luck and worse timing, what starts as another brutal patrol turns into something bloodier - and far more dangerous. Trapped in the ruins of a dying city, it's not just survival on the line anymore. It's pride. Control. Desire, twisting sharp as a blade between gritted teeth. Enemies first. Allies by necessity. Something else if they aren't careful. She hates Ellie Williams. She just hasn't decided yet if she'd rather kill her... or let her ruin her. In a world already torn apart, some battles are lost on purpose. And some are begged for.Complete

Ellie left. You stayed. Then you left, too. You told yourself it wasn't to follow her, but the roads you took said otherwise.

So you walked. And walked. And somehow, that led you to Abby Anderson.Complete

This Love: Spencer Reid
spencer, i'll remember how i'd loved you. even after i saw the hate behind your sweet eyes and messy statistics. even after i heard casually cruel words leave the same sugary lips that you used to plant soft kisses on my cheeks. even after i saw you kill right in front of me. the loss of your presence would still hurt the same. it probably wouldn't even matter what you did or didn't do because at night, i would still be crying into my pillow about everything that happened to you regardless. that's another thing that hurts so bad about this all. your loss. it's obvious, i know that. but i feel so alone. and you're actually gone this time.Complete
