His bedroom window faces yours. And some nights, you swears he’s looking.Joel Miller is everything you shouldn't want.

Summary
The crowd parts as Dina barrels through, her jacket half-on and her boots untied, panic written clear across her features. Terror replaces the momentary relief at seeing her alive and unharmed when he sees how frantic she is. That girl doesn’t panic; not like this.
Before he can take another step, she skids to a stop in front of him. “Where’s Ellie?”
“What—”
“She was covering for me,” Dina chokes out, the words tumbling over each other in her rush to get them out. “I wasn’t feeling well, so she took my shift. Where is she?”
Tommy’s world tilts. Ellie. Inside. The words don’t connect at first, then slam into him so hard that he bends forward, hands bracing on his knees as his vision tunnels. Ellie was inside when the fire broke out, and now…
Not Ellie. Christ, not Ellie.

Summary
After the outbreak, you survived by listening… to roots and rain, to grief, to ghosts. When Jackson opens its gates, you bring your quiet healing into a town that’s already cracking beneath its own weight.
And then there’s Joel Miller.
A man stitched with silence, mourning, and half-measures. You don’t mean to fall for him.
But everything that heals also aches.Tincture is a slow-burn love story wrapped in ritual, grief, and the quiet domesticity of survival. A post-canon character study of healing, hope, and what remains after ruin.

Summary
After leaving an abusive relationship, you return back to your hometown in Austin, Texas, seeking safety and a fresh start with your father that you have not seen for many years. The quietness between you two feels strange at first - but peaceful, a feeling that's foreign to you.
Then you meet Joel, one of your dad's business partners and longtime friend -- steady, kind, and nearly twenty years older. What begins as a simple friendship slowly turns into something deeper, something that feels both unexpected and right. -

Summary
Settled back in Salt Lake City, you scored radio contact with a nearby settlement in Wyoming. The chats were extremely brief, and you sometimes missed the casual banter; jokes were far and few in between, so it was always welcome, but never fulfilled. On the bright side, they were pretty generous with their booze, which was the only thing you wanted from them in return for your services. But then, the voice behind the station changed, and the radio began beeping for you at strange hours of the night.
.
*or*
.
You traded with a settlement in Wyoming, keeping contact through the radio, and even though the radio was meant to be used for business purposes only, you and the man on the other side decided that radio sex was on the table. Also, everything goes to shit because of course it does. -

Summary
Tommy glanced at his watch on his wrist and let out a long sigh, leaning back on the toilet and glancing to the stick on the counter next to him. He couldn't read it from the angle he was at, so he forced himself to his feet and reached a shaky hand out to grab it, turning it over like he'd accidentally release a curse upon the earth if he flipped it too fast.
Two pink lines stared back at him, the small chart beside it telling him loud and clear. PREGNANT.

Summary
You came to Jackson five years ago, and since then you’ve built something that almost feels like a life. Steady work at the clinic, a roof over your head, the closest thing to safety you’ve known since the world fell apart. It isn’t perfect, but it’s yours.
Then you’re thrown onto patrol, partnered with Tommy’s brooding older brother, Joel Miller — and everything starts to unravel.
He’s moody, stubborn, infuriatingly bossy. He gets under your skin with every order he barks, with every look he gives you like he knows better. He’s also the one man you can’t stop thinking about, no matter how many times he’s made it clear he wants nothing to do with you.
But the longer you’re out there together, the harder it gets to ignore the pull between you. Banter turns to touches, touches to something you swore you wouldn’t want. And as the line between friends and something more begins to blur, you’ll have to decide just how much you’re willing to risk.

Summary
Sometimes, Ellie got the strange sensation of being in a hotel, somewhere completely impermanent and impersonal. It was all too easy to picture the others leaving and simply never coming back, Ellie waiting in the empty space like a sad little foster kitten, ridden with fleas and whining at her food bowl. Then some new group would arrive and inform her it was theirs now, and that would be that. This place she called home could be rid of any trace of her in a matter of hours.
(Or: Ellie is a drug dealer. Joel is a dad. Bonding ensues.)

Summary
“It’s okay. I will fix the lock tomorrow.”
Ellie gasped when she heard his voice, since she hadn’t been aware of his presence nor that he had been listening. Once again, she was looking up at him with those big eyes of hers and only in that moment Joel realized that Ellie didn’t only dislike him.
No, even worse. She was fucking scared of him.
That this was fear glistening in her innocent eyes, as she took a few steps backwards, hugging herself tightly in self-protection, her head hanging low like she was ducking, trying to make herself as small as possible and her eyes being focused on her socked feet.
Joel was looking at her, hating himself for spooking her like that and before he could come up with saying something to make her feel less tensed and more comfortable, Ellie turned around and hurried inside the safety of the guest room without taking a shower, like she had probably intended to do.
~~~
Or: Joel healing a little heart he hadn't broken.
