    Summary

    Ellie wakes at dawn covered in dirt again.

    “Morning,” she whispers to his headstone. She foolishly waits for a reply.

    She considers digging her own grave right next to Joel’s, and thinks that she might be more content existing forever with his skeleton than with only the memory of him.

    (or, Ellie returns to Jackson, but can't find a way to return to herself)

    Summary

    “Yeah,” JJ darts back over, looking up at her, “hey, mom?”

    “Hm?”

    “Why don’t you ever talk about your dad?”

    It’s Ellie’s turn to freeze.

     

    Ellie comes to a deeper understanding of Joel's decision through JJ.

    Summary

    A moment passed. Then two.

    At three seconds, Talon heard a tiny sound. A little whimper to its right. The chick.

    Talon whipped around. Was the fledgling hurt? Why was it crying and shuddering? There was no blood—still, it tilted its head and chirped, Pain? Injury? Distress?

    For some reason, the chick only cried harder. Hm.

    Maybe Talon should check on it. Just to be sure.

    OR:

    Talon!Dick: “This is MY chick.”

    Jason: “I'm being kidnapped by a cryptid. HELP.”

    Summary

    Fear had a way of poisoning certainty. And tonight she was more afraid than she'd been in years. The tears kept coming long after she wished they would stop. And somewhere between guilt, fear, exhaustion, and old memories, Ellie lay awake in the darkness, staring at the ceiling and dreading the arrival of morning...

    - - -

    (Or: When Ellie makes a stupid decision, her life threatens to change irrevocably—at least that's what she believes. But, unfortunately for all of them, fate had very different, very cruel plans...)
