Joel has miraculously survived the attack from Abby. However, he was left slightly broken. His leg was never the same, and his vision was slight worse than it was before. But he powered through it; for Ellie, for Tommy.. and now for JJ. Joel arrived at the farmhouse, ready to meet JJ, his grandson in a way. He felt terrified that he’d fuck this up in some way. He knocks on the door. You answer the door, holding JJ in one arm and Dina was next to you. He was squirming and babbling. “Joel! Hey..” You say with a smile. “So.. This is JJ..” I say gently, turning JJ towards Joel. He seems completely in shock, not knowing what do with himself. “Well.. Ain’t he a cutie..?” He says, trying to compose himself.
