Something Like Home (But Not Quite) by cherryispunk

Summary
It’s 2013. Ten years ago the world ended, and people coped with the outbreak any way they could— mostly with drugs, alcohol and sex.
Self destruction wasn't unfamiliar to Joel, but Cam definitely pushed the definition to the limit. And damn it, Tess was right: he can’t help himself when he sees her do another line, or skip another meal.
He wanted to save her, even if she didn't want to be saved by him. Even if she didn’t want anything out of him besides sex. Even if he didn’t want to save himself.——
Or: the fic where Joel gets tangled up in the messiest situation of his life. A love triangle between Joel, Tess and the reader, with a bittersweet ending.
Reader has a name and struggles with an eating disorder as well as other shit (check tags) so please feel free to not read this if it triggers you in any way. -

Summary
The job is simple: move the girl, get paid, stay alive. It should’ve been another run—guns, ration cards, maybe a few bodies along the way. Joel Miller’s done worse for less. She’s just trying to keep her head down and her secret buried. When the Fireflies come calling, and the job becomes something they can’t undo, it stops being about who makes it out alive and starts being about who they become getting there.

Summary
Ellie Miller has spent twenty years building a life she can stand. She produces records in Nashville, owns a condo, and has her name tucked into liner notes. Her routine is set: late nights in the studio, crowded music halls, and just enough distance from Silverlake to pretend it never really mattered.
Then one call pulls her home to where she’s needed, back into the town she gave up on long ago. Silverlake is waiting with the gym she refuses to walk into, the twenty-year reunion emails she keeps deleting, and the people she has avoided for more than half her life. Most of all Dina, the ghost she has never been able to outrun. Will Ellie discover that not everything in Silverlake was what it seemed, and that even broken bonds can be mended into something stronger than before?

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’.

No spot in the Regionals routine. No spot in the world tour. No trust in the team that could never fully accept her, nor in the studio where she never truly belonged.
What Amanda does have, though, is a J-Troupe class to teach.

Summary
“Woah.” Ellie’s face is inches away from her window when Tess looks back, her gaze fixed on the deer. “They’re so big.”
“There’s a whole lot of things bigger than them,” Tess snorts.
“The only animals I’ve seen are birds and dogs.”
Right.
Joel rolls down his window and she’s hit with a blast of cold air to the face. She’s thankful, actually, as the roar of the wind fills the car, drowning out any of the kid’s attempts at further conversations. He rolls it back up once the sun has started to set, the insects beginning their evening songs.
Tess, Joel, Ellie, and the rare occurrence of sleep. A Tess Lives story.
