Hunger is an odd thing.
An all consuming force that even the strongest cannot help but succumb to. It's scrawny limbs reaching out to grasp the sanity from the sanest minds, the rationality from the rational. The Lord above can not do anything but watch as it destroys families, democracy, life.
Perhaps hunger is why no one noticed what was happening. The cold bite of the winter doing nothing but enhancing the glossy look in your starving eyes, the frost leaving a pit that can only be filled by the warmth of meat moving through your body.
Perhaps that is what you tell yourself to sleep at night, to keep the empty eyes from burrowing a home inside your damned soul.
Because even if you were ignorant to what you did, your soul is damned.
And that will never change.

**18+, dark topics covered, toxic relationships, graphic violence and smut throughout** Pre Part 1: You never used to be this desperate. Never used to allow yourself to grovel at a man's feet for him just to give you the smallest morsels of warmth in return. Yet, you found yourself lapping up each and every crumb. It was never supposed to even be him. It was Tommy that set his eyes on you on that godforsaken night at the bar- the night that turned to utter carnage. Yet now, you would do just about anything to have his brother look at you with the same warmth and wanting. You wanted to hate Joel Miller, wanted to feel nothing but disgust as you looked at him but you never could... and so in turn, you allowed him to ruin you over and over in every sense of the word.Complete

❝Lucia believed Joel was dead. She thought it had been that way for twenty years, leaving her to find him in the scent of the earth and the whistling of the winds. But when she was met with those deep brown eyes she thought she'd never see again, she couldn't help but fall in love all over. All of a sudden, the people she'd once known in another life were popping up like dead flies, whether she wanted them to appear or not, reliving trauma's she believed she had left behind years ago.❞ THE LAST OF US i do not own the plot, characters, or overall storyline of the last of us. all credits go to the neil druckmann and craig mazin. lucia, michael, and their plot belong to me. do not steal. started: 07-08-2024 finished: t.b.d top ranking: #5 TheLastOfUs #3 JoelMiller
Silver ||Joel Miller||
Laura knew the dangers of her world. Between Cordyceps and the survivors, she often wondered how she'd made it twenty years. Lacking a purpose, she acted as a FEDRA plant for the Fireflies before she became the guardian of an immune kid. Ellie. But, of course, her life wasn't challenging enough already. And so, to stay with her kid she'd have to work with 'Texas'. He was a reminder of why it was dangerous to let people in - a reminder of her biggest regret. Joel never forgot 'Quebec', a person with whom he'd shared parts of himself he never wanted seen. It was safe to do so with her, because they'd agreed never to share their real names. It was a failed attempt at emotional detachment, which was why he'd never admit how much it hurt when she'd left four years ago. But when they have to cooperate to get Ellie across the country, he's confronted with their entwined history. Joel just wants to survive long enough to find his brother, and all he can do is prevent Laura from pulling him in again. He didn't realise he was already drowning until they made code words. 'Silver' meant 'help'... God help anyone that made Laura say 'silver'. ||Joel Miller Fan-Fiction - The Last of Us|| ||basically a season 1 rewrite with a new OC and an epilogue correction to what will happen in season 2 iykyk - 🏌♀️|| ||canon-typical violence, swearing, and trauma I guess|| ||complete - undergoing edits|| notable rankings: #1 in joelmiller #1 in tlou #1 in thelastofus #1 in mutualpining #1 in foundfamilyComplete
Lilium in Bloom || A The Last of Us story.
They've been walking for days. The kind of walking that eats at your spine and leaves your thoughts screaming louder than the silence. After getting sidetracked by crumbling colonies and empty promises, Joel and Ellie are running low-on food, on bullets, on hope. That's when they see her. Alone. Hunched behind the rusted corpse of a car, hoodie drawn tight, one hand clenched around a blade that's already seen too much use. She doesn't beg. Doesn't speak at first. Just looks at them like she's deciding whether to fight or bleed out. Joel raises his gun. She doesn't flinch. "Go ahead," she says, voice flat. "Wouldn't be the worst thing that's happened to me." Ellie shifts. Joel doesn't lower the weapon. Not yet. They let her stick around-just for the night. That's what they tell themselves. She doesn't talk much, eats less. Sleeps with one eye open and a blade under her pillow. There's something broken in her. Not the kind you fix. The kind that cuts if you get too close. But they keep walking. And she keeps following. No one asks why. There's a story behind her silence, behind the bruises she won't explain and the nightmares that make her choke on her own breath. Joel sees it-he's lived it. Ellie feels it-like a weight shifting in their trio. A new presence. A new threat. Or maybe something else. They don't trust her. Not really. But they know better than to leave someone behind just because they're haunted. The world took everything from her-and what's left is sharp, angry, and dangerous. For a few days, they're not two-they're three. But nothing stays whole in this world. Not for long.
