    Summary

    Newly settled into Jackson City, you’re assigned to patrol duty with Joel Miller; a man of rough edges and cool appraisals. His story is buried deep beneath scars of loss while you hide your own grief behind flour-dusted hands and the desperate hope of belonging. What begins as forced proximity slowly shifts into something fragile and all-consuming. But as the past creeps forward through old wounds and the ever-present threat of raiders, your feelings for one another become both a sanctuary and a liability. In a world already broken, where there is already so much to lose, can you let yourself love Joel Miller?

    Summary

    Your stomach turns as you watch the soldier steel himself, rifle raised.

    “We’re not sick!” The civilian’s voice breaks, desperate. The shot goes off before you even think—aiming for the shoulder, but hitting the neck instead. The soldier’s rifle jerks, shots spraying wild. You fire again. This time, your bullet finds the back of his head.

    Silence drops, heavy and suffocating, swallowing the echoes of gunfire.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~

    You're just trying to make it through the end the world by yourself, but you keep running into the Millers.

    Summary

    You've been (somewhat) enjoying a drink with a young architect--cute, if a little boring--and trying to ignore the constant barrage of text messages you'd been receiving from the faceless creep you've come to think of as Bar Douche when an intimidating stranger named Joel interrupts.

    Joel is by turns protective, crass, and completely over-the-top flirtatious, leaving you not quite sure how to respond to him and not quite sure where you stand. You give as good as you get, baring your teeth from time to time, but Joel just seems to enjoy your bite. Fighting his excessive, thick-laid come-ons and wandering hands is too easy at first, but grows progressively more difficult as his tendency to swoop in just in time results in the two of you spending more and more time together.

    Summary

    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'.

    [Essentially a show rewrite with an added OC and some plot changes]
