I have found myself enjoying stitching together 2 or more screenshots to create one.
Happy trans visibility day!!!

itโs so much worse. the way ellie tells joel to get up and he tries. the way abby seeps the pointed end of the club into his neck. the way the wlf members donโt even bother knocking ellie out because she is already so emotionally paralyzed by grief she canโt even so much as stand.
but more than anything else itโs crawling to him. all she can muster is crawling with nothing but her arms and cuddling into joel with her whole person. her face buried into the manโs which will forever be the last memory of him. itโs like watching a child seeking the safety of a parent who canโt protect them anymore. this isnโt just the death of a protector. itโs the death of home. joel, to ellie, is safety. safety that she spent the last five years resenting until it was too late. heโs been the one constant in a shattered world. so when heโs dying โ or dead โ she reverts, not in age but in emotional rawness. she becomes a daughter clinging to a father figure who canโt shield her anymore. and itโs not just fear. itโs complete unmooring. thereโs no one left to hold the world up for her. itโs the kind of need that children have when everything feels too big, too loud, too dangerous. she needs to be held. but thereโs no one to hold her, so she becomes the one doing the holding, even if he canโt respond. and heโll never respond.
in one of ellieโs most harrowing moments in life joel was there to cling on to her. in yet another, she clings to him. but heโll never cling back again.
