Summary
“Ugh, I wish I could drive,” she says, paying him absolutely no mind as she climbs into the passenger seat. “Riding down the highway with the windows down, blasting music.”
“Get caught in traffic,” Joel says. “Get a flat tire. Pay for a new alternator.”
“Yeah, yeah, you don’t even know. You have a car. You can go wherever you want. You have everything.”
Joel grips the wheel tight. Kids never have anything to worry about. Their whole lives laid out in front of them like a highway. Everything, everything.
Or:
Joel gets a contracting job at a school. Being around kids all day is bad enough--and then a brazen, foul-mouthed teenager keeps showing up at his work site. Joel doesn't care why she's sleeping at school instead of at home. He doesn't.Or:
The foster kid AU where Ellie's foster parents are the least of her problems. -

Summary
September has always been Ellie’s favorite. Favorite month-name, favorite time of year, favorite feeling. In Jackson, September is golden and sweet. Yellow leaves, red apples, the dew in the high grass cold on her ankles. Everyone is ready for things to begin.
It never bothered her, before, that September is when things start to die.
Or, Ellie is trying to begin again, but the past won't stay past.

Summary
I never had a choice. Not about anything in my entire life. I didn’t choose to move to the most boring place on Etheria. I abso-fucking-lutely didn’t choose the evil witch of a mother I got. And I didn’t choose to be especially delicious-smelling to you creepy vampires either. So don’t you dare blame me for choosing the one thing I ever got a say about in my pathetic excuse for a life, Adora.
I know you don’t want this. But after everything, you’re not gunna get rid of me so easy. So fine. Maybe you’ll never forgive me. Hate me as much as you want. In fact, you can hate me forever.

“Why?”
Phil shrugs.
“If I told you it'd sort of defeat the purpose,” He says. “Sorry.”
Or the one where Dan's inner Phil decides to take him on a dream-tour of his failings.

Summary
Phil lives alone in a house on a hill. It’s easier to hide himself away than face people looking at him like he’s a freak.
One day he makes the mistake of tripping into a stranger’s arms and he’s forced on a journey of confronting the idea that maybe he deserves - and wants - to be seen.
