You guys won't BELIEVE the wip im cooking up rn
Ellie and Abby are arguing over something stupid (like who's the most traumatized or who's the most awesome or some shit), Dina is a mildly concerned but mostly neutral observer of the chaos, and Jesse is playing crossword puzzles and trying to ignore Dumb and Dumber.

Hi💕
Idk If you want detailed requests or want to leave it to imagination but I have this photo of them in my mind I can't shake it off and would love to see it for real so much.
Can I request Ellabs where Ellie sits on Abby's lap annoyed and arms crossed...?
Thanks for the ask, this was a nice distraction from the shit storm that is my life
You know what?
I love you, fics that take months to update. I click on the newest chapter and have no memory of this place and get to go back some chapters and rediscover how much i love everything about this story.
I love you, fics that take years to update. I think of you fondly, and know your names, go search for you and see an update from this year and scream, diving in uncaring of any missed details (i will finish the update and read you in reverse because this is a treat you have bestowed)
I love you, fics that probably will never update again. Thank you for being a roman empire for my mind, thank you for teaching me about the ephemeral fandom experience, for inspiring a thousand million what if-s, for being a comfort read and a nostalgia read and a reread.
I love you fic writers, who jump into projects and stories with enthusiasm. I love you when you succeed in pumping out those chapters and that love doesn't go away when you stop.
I love you fic writers who post and then get in your own head and never feel confident enough to update, whether it's at all or whether it's just that one story.
I love you fic writers, who have a fandom or media hurt you to the point of abandoning or having a hard time with their WIPs.
I love you fic writers, who lose interest or have life changes or illness or bad memory. Thank you for being part of the fandom, a core part of the fandom. Thank you for the time spent in the fandom.
I love you, fic writers who try out something new and then stop. You're so valid.
I love you, WIP fics that may or may not ever get finished. Thank you for brightening my day in the way only you could have.
here's some shots of Abby, Ellie, Dina, Owen and Bill modded into Left4Dead2, you can find the files here!
The scene after Ellie's immunity is revealed holds so much meaning. It's mostly the fact that we already know that Ellie has told Dina about being immune back when they were lying on the couch in the weed den, yet when Ellie is forced to talk to Dina about it a few moments after her gas mask breaks and finally comes clean—clean about how Joel, Tommy, and Maria are the only ones to know—you can see how much she wants to tell Dina, 'I told you too, remember? I told you, and you thought I was being funny.' Because now she feels like she's been lying to her lover for the whole time (even though she wasn't), she just didn't want to bring that up again because the first time she tried, Dina wouldn't believe her. And you can see just how guilty Ellie feels. It's the fidgety Ellie posture and approach, where she can't stop playing with her hands and keeps pulling at her thumb with sadness in her eyes as she tries to explain to Dina that she can't infect her.
I think that a big part of what Ellie is so scared of when it comes to her immunity being revealed is how Dina would react, knowing Ellie was 'selfish' enough to be intimate with her even though she knew she was infected. And, of course, this is not what Dina has in mind. She would never question Ellie's actions. But try to explain this to a sweet-hearted girl who thought that kissing a girl (Cat) would get her infected. A girl who stayed up all night to keep an eye on her so she wouldn't turn.
You see that this is the main reason why Ellie has never found the courage to speak to Dina about it again. Because in her mind, her being infected, no matter how she knows it works and how safe it is, means the exact opposite for the others.
It's perfectly portrayed in the scene where Ellie tells her, "I can't get you infected if that's what you're worried about."
Followed with, "I can't make you immune either." which is so honest and sweet that it makes you realize just how much Ellie wishes her immunity was good for at least THIS, if not for the cure itself.
