Summary
After years of forced slumber, Nila awoke to a world completely different from the time before. Long gone is the rule of humanity. In its place lies chaos and survival of the fittest as the world tries to reset the balance of predator and prey. Nila doesn't expect much of the new world. Long used to apocalyptic events, the ancient being doesn't let her new task weigh too heavy on her shoulders. But what happens when she meets her soulmate marks, after centuries of waiting? One seems to be the cure for humanity (much to Nilas annoyance) and one seems to bear a heavy weight on her tired shoulders. Nila, stuck between everyone's truths and lies, must find a way to fix her bonds before she loses them to themselves. Otherwise she might just choose not to save anyone at all.
(It's kind of a Mother Nature reincarnate story and an Elliexocxabby story because I can and I'm bored.)

Summary
Winnie used to know what she was doing - at least, she thought so anyway. When the life she thought she wanted falls apart in the 'Big City', she moves home with her father to give herself a second chance to pretend like she wasn't falling apart at the seams.
Pretending was her favorite pastime, if her small town gossip was to be believed. She also kept trying to pretend like her father's new friend and new neighbor, Joel Miller, wasn't the absolute distraction that he was. If she kept telling herself that his Texas drawl was just annoying, she could ignore him. . . right?

Summary
Almost four years after the events at St. Mary’s Hospital, Ellie finally learns the truth. And it cuts deeper than any wound. The lies meant to protect her have shackled her instead—and torn Joel away from her forever.
What follows are months of silence. Cold. Empty. Heavy. Ellie comes of age, finishes her tattoo, loses her relationship—and the last fragments of stability she had. Meanwhile, Joel starts a new life—with another woman, with another chance at happiness.
But that’s the one thing Ellie can’t stand.
She doesn’t want him back. She wants him to suffer. Just like she has. And the only way to truly hurt him… is through herself.

Summary
There was nothing like the sound of a thousand horses’ feet hitting the ground at once. Thump, thump, thump. Coming from over the hill in the distance, closing in. The sky filled with smoke, blazing red, fire. Fire behind those horses. A chorus of spirited screams that travelled to their houses, through the cobblestone streets. The sound of defeat. The sound of imposing death.
The fathers and sons and friends and brothers of her humble kingdom were sure to be trampled under those horses, an awful, endless squelching of bodies. That sound was all the proof she needed. They’d lost. They’d lost.OR; Athena is a peasant girl from a poor kingdom with nothing but nerve and a heart of gold to her name. But King Joel of Cera sees more than that.
OR OR; The dark fantasy Joel AU nobody wanted but I delivered anyway cause I do what I want. -

Summary
This might be a fluke. It could be stress and grief and age. It could be menopause. It might. He was never that regular to begin with, so that's no help. He'd just been stretching his T too thin and now everything it had been holding off for so many years was crashing down on him all at once.
But it might not be. It could be more.
It could be some part of Tess that he gets to keep.
Joel leaves Boston with Ellie and much more than he bargained for
Or:
The T4T Joel and Tess oops, right? fic

Summary
Before the world ends, life keeps moving.
It doesn’t wait for you, and it surely doesn’t care if you can’t catch up.
Sometimes the things holding you down are inevitable – love, loss, a soul.
And when it finally does, sometimes you realize you can’t live without it.

Summary
Ellie Williams was going to die, all by herself, in a forest clearing, under a bright blue sky, without a soul knowing. Alone, all alone, not even some beautiful final vision of the one person that cared enough to break the world for her, that was her fate. As her vision faded, as breath grew impossible, and the pain finally dissolved into nothingness, Ellie’s final thought was ‘this is how I end’.
