ellie has space socks. its a sock dark blue with stars and planets all over it and its her favorite but one day it rips or gets lost anyway she can’t wear it anymore and she knows its dumb but she’s like really fucking sad about it like really fucking sad because its her favorite sock wtf let her be sad but because joel is a fucking mother hen and hates ellie being sad he gose to maria to ask for help like “how tf where tf do i get my kid new socks ???” and good thing for joel turns out tommy can embroider (he looks like an embroidery person you can’t tell me otherwise) so with the help of maria and joel finding a few pairs of blue socks they give them to tommy and he embroiders stars, planets, sally ride (her name) and fucking everything ellie loves about space and two weeks later ellie comes home from school and sees all her new socks and just fucking cries if you ask her no she didn’t but anyways from that day on for every holiday that has presents ellie gets a few new pair of space socks (this thought came to me when i realized my space socks had a hole in them)

Tommy doing embroidery has me CRYING, I never thought about it before but it makes so much sense. Once Joel and Ellie find out it's over though, screw Uncle Tommy he is Grandma Tommy now, he is never getting rid of that nickname.

I love this little idea a lot, it's super sweet and Ellie deserves personalized clothes and belongings cause she probably never really had that outside of the few things in her backpack like her blade and walkman. Give that girl a closet full of love.
