Joel stayed in Jacksonville. Ellie went off to do her own thing, and once again, he was left to his own devices. His new life wasn't so bad—less dangerous, less chaotic. But it was still a bit lonely, even with your company. With the sudden influx of survivors staying in Jacksonville, strangers had to live together until more houses could be built. Joel's unlucky roommate? You.

Joel made sure to organize the chore list every weekend, he wasn't about to do all the work himself. He also made sure that all of his roommates' belongings stayed in their rooms, he wasn't about to have a cluttered house. Joel made sure to alternate who got to choose the movie every Thursday, he wasn't about to sit through whatever crappy film you picked every week.

So far, so good, he thought.

"Come help me with the groceries!" he called into the house, setting two paper bags full of produce on the table.
