if ellie was being honest, moving from planet to planet half of the time had gotten old pretty quickly. growing up the way she had, she’d gotten used to being ordinary. she’d gotten used to doing every day tasks to get enough credits to provide for herself. and maybe her life hadn’t been exciting, but she had a purpose. but at the end of the day, she wasn’t ordinary. she had abilities that she barely knew how to use and yet somehow it put her entire life in danger.
she’d heard of the horrors of the empire, how they’d hunted people like her down. the rebels had made sure to warn her of the horrors, attempting to motivate her to stay out of the empire’s clutches. but somehow, being stuck with someone else she barely knew ( yet ) wasn’t exactly her idea of a solution. “ --------- you know, you could at least pretend that you enjoy dragging me around the galaxy. ” joel was nice enough, really ------ but that didn’t mean that she didn’t enjoy messing with him all of the time. / @rightbyher starter !
