the last of us, joel/ellie. set a few years after the end of the game, they're still trying to recover from what happened in salt lake city and move forward with new lives in jackson. an abrupt change - death, destruction, or maybe it's just that patience has finally broken - threatens to break them apart for good, and a desperate attempt to put things right once and for all redefines their relationship.
i'm looking for something with a slow build, lots of angst, and ideally a good mix of romance and tragedy. smut optional. if you're interested, i'm happy to expand on a few ideas or starting points, or we can plot something out from scratch.
