Summary
“You don’t even know what I did,” she whimpers, and Joel asks:
“Do you- wanna tell me?”
He’s not sure he’s ready to hear it; he’s not sure he’ll ever be ready to hear, he thinks, but his needs dim mightily in comparison to the needs of his girl. Always has, always will. That’s the way this thing works, after all, isn’t it?

Joel Miller, his daughters, and the small miracle of running water.

A The Last of Us family first, Jackson is a happy mostly peaceful place.

Summary
If she’s being honest with herself, the real problem is that every time she looks at those pink stripes, she’s back to that night in December, Joel’s sharp words ringing in her ears, sure as hell ain’t your dad, come dawn we’re going our separate ways, sitting on that window seat with her knees hugged to her chest for hours afterwards, staring at the wallpaper and waiting and waiting and waiting for him to come back and tell her that he changed his mind, that he’s not leaving her.
She knows how the story ends, she knows that even though he never apologized, he did wait for her, he didn’t leave her, but those stupid pink walls keep reminding her that everyone leaves her eventually.

When emergency home repairs kick Ellie and Joel out of their house in Jackson, they temporarily move in with Tommy and Maria. One could say it's a full house. (Featuring Miller Family Bonding and Ellie's abandonment issues and a nonzero amount of Lord of the Rings references.)

Summary
The memories of those visits tend to blend together in Joel’s mind, a soft-focus blur of tastes and sounds and particularly memorable jokes, usually told by Frank. Joel remembers the year that Tess had gotten her hands on some Elton John sheet music and Frank had point-blank asked if she thought all gay men liked Elton John, pretending to be legitimately offended. Tess had apologized profusely, something she rarely did, until Frank had cracked and, face splitting open wide, had admitted that he actually is pretty fond of Honky Chateau.

Summary
Set in season 2 after Oswald is released from Arkham. In all his sweet, helpless niceness.
After being turned away by Butch and Ed Oswald doesn't find his father, instead he stays in Gotham on the streets until Butch takes pity on him. Unfortunately he accidentally takes the fall for a murder and is sent to Blackgate. Hugo Strange is curious how this new docile Oswald will make it through a prison with a different type of bad guy than Arkham, so he may have had a hand in getting the man sentenced rather quickly.
Oswald is not prepared for a place like Blackgate, not the way that he is now. Luckily for him, Jim Gordon also happens to be there, and the man is sure to protect him. At least he hopes so.
Jim is just trying to keep himself alive and get out of prison as fast as he can. To clear his name. Oswald Cobblepot is a complication that he doesn't need, but the man is so helpless he can't bring himself to leave him to... whatever might happen to him.
Also, he may have a soft spot for him.
I don't know what I'm doing folks. Gotham has taken over my life :D I just so badly wanted Nice Oswald to interact with Jim.

Summary
My idea of an episode arc, somewhere between the end of the first season and way before the movie.
An exploration of the lives of Serenity's crew with some Extra Cargo and an 'easy' paying job to Pythagoras. Boxes, letters, dinosaurs, spider webs, men shopping, checklists, and a gentle but gruff Jayne. A story of an unconventional family being created - not slash. Mostly tooth rotting fluff.Series
