hello && welcome! i’m luca and thank you for visiting.  

        just some quick notes: my blogs tend to be very slow activity.  plotting is always the best way to get something rolling quickly.  it helps give me parameters to work with.  for me, that helps my muse as it gets a lot of questions out of the way.  or, if you prefer, mutuals can always go through my meme tag and send anything in.

        dis.cord is available for mutuals who would like to get ahold of me that way.  it can be the easiest option since i blog hop.  please keep in mind that i can be slow to respond due to work, family, and social obligations.  if you prefer ims you can also check for me on steve, peter, or wrench.

                            thank you !

          she remembered how her uncle was always fixing something or another on the ranch.  a younger version of herself wondered why nothing stayed whole for very long.  even after being told the cattle sometimes liked to lean against the fence posts to help scratch their thicker hides the logistics behind all of it didn’t quite click.  it wasn’t until she started caring for a number of people under extreme circumstances that she really understood the simple fact that things fell apart.  while frustrating, it also gave people purpose.

           while the patrols were out maria took the opportunity to keep her own mind occupied by fixing a few of the clotheslines that had fallen to father time.  better than standing still long enough to let her thoughts wander.

           “ do you remember where one of the screwdrivers went?  i can’t fu- “  maria let her hands fall to her hips.  //   @lonesnipr​ ♡’d the starter call

          it’d been on one of the last supplies she personally went on that she found a treasure trove of fun.  well, things she’d thought were fun when she was a kid, anyway.  a lot of them were out of the question just in case they were loud enough to attract more infected their way.  but, this?  this was something she hoped would put a smile on ellie’s face.

          maria wandered until the other form came into view.  she held out the handful of sparklers in her hand and wiggled them side to side.  “ ever seen one of these? “   //   @nothraet​ ♡’d the starter call

there are those good mornings when maria feels good enough that she dances when she thinks no one is looking.  all it takes any tiny little win life throws her way.

familycause​   [   tommy   ]

Tommy leaned against the doorframe, boot hooked over the other as he watched Maria keep her hands busy. The way her jaw twitched as she loaded the bullets. How he knew she KNEW he was there. She’d heard him loud and clear. But he knows she needs her time to find the words for the thoughts rolling round in her head. And he knows the answer to his question already. He could see it in her before he, officially, made his presence known. Those seconds of silence he stole between them as he searched his vocabulary for what to say, too.

“Cause she is. Looks even smaller than her age lets on. Or I’m just older and the younger someone is, the younger they look.” Tommy sees her attempt to smile, he returns the favor. Doesn’t quite make it to his eyes. Seeing Joel standing beside a little girl like that?  Felt like the world cracked open and he was sucked back in time. With the crushing reality that it’d be impossible taking an upswing at the back of his head two seconds later.

“Reminded me of before this all happened. Seein’ him like that. Don’t think I’ve seen him let a kid in since—.” Blowing out a breath, Tommy stood up taller when his wife met his eyes. Her smile was met with a set of soft eyes that appreciated the effort but he couldn’t lie to her and give one back. 

“They’ve got somewhere to be is all..” Why bother with the rest? Probably be good to try and put it out of his head. Like that’d be possible.

“I could..” A brow lifts, feet shift and he uses the gravity of a lean forward to lead his steps. The distance between them is gone. Both arms reach out to wrap around the small of her back and draw her near. “But I ain’t..” Green eyes close when his forehead meets hers. “Soon as I take that step in followin’ him?” He shakes his head lightly and feels his stomach twist. Every fiber of his being wants to be there for his brother. But his head? His memories? How far he’s come from where Joel’s heading. From Joel. How much he has to lose? “M’not sure where it’d go and if it’s a place I wanna be. AGAIN.”

          fear made her lash out and she hated it every single god damn time.  maria was better than that.  she was better than the panic and the anxiety and the nightmares lurking in the shadows.  once, at the start of all this, more rolled off her back.  every punch simply had her rolling the other way.  when she looked up she appreciates that attempted smile.  sometimes you have to pretend the world isn’t full of walking question marks.  that smile meant more to her than tommy would ever, ever know.  muscles release in her shoulders for the first time in hours.  even if she understood it was only the shadow of a real smile seeing him try made everything better.

           lips part, wanting to ask more questions about the topic at hand.  at the same time she didn’t want to bring those memories up.  curiosity wouldn’t help jackson in this instance.  so, all maria could do was try to offer another smile.  “ there’s a mouth on that one, “ she says instead.  tilting her head to the side, she muses to herself on how she should’ve counted the number of profanities that came out of ellie’s mouth in the short time they were together.  at the same time, a protective warmth rose up within her.  everything in her brain wanted her to tell joel to stay.  that a kid that young shouldn’t be travelling like that.  she needed to learn and she needed friends.  she needed structure and safety.  all of which could easily be provided now that the turbines were functioning again.

          his forward motion has her standing.  just as easily as his arms reach out, so do hers.  calloused fingers slide against worn fabric and she tries very, very hard not to cling like she wants to.  like her fingers needed to dig in to his shoulders and remind herself that this was real.  tommy was still safe and whole.  instead, she lets her fingers lock behind his neck.  the warmth radiating off his skin has her closing her eyes.  “ where has it taken you before? he’s your family. it can’t be that bad. “

Character A tilting Character B’s chin up to get a better look at their face and the evidence of the fight. A delicately thumbs away the streak of blood by B’s mouth, saying nothing as they examine it. After a brief pause, B’s heart skips a nervous beat as A looks them dead in the eyes. Their voice is quiet and tense, their anger barely restrained.
