Fics like a shoeless child on a swing, reminds you of your own again

“Where are your parents, kid? You need to leave.” The girl’s face turns guarded for a moment, then it switches, and she points at the sky silently, a mock serious expression on her face. “What type of answer is that supposed to be?” He doesn’t have time for this girl and whatever weird shenanigans she’s trying to pull. “It means they’re dead, dumbass. I live in the group foster home down the street." -- (or: Ellie shows up in Joel's yard one day when she's eight, and she doesn't stop showing up in his life after that. Takes place over the course of six years.)
