Drabbles. No rhyme, No reason.

The progression of Daryl and Carol's relationship through the seasons through their various "first" times.

Her life was hard enough before her crazy ex came back to town. And when he does the unthinkable, there is only one person for her to turn to. Caryl AU inspired by ideas from blackqueenphoenix and karouyamisaki on Tumblr.

If tomorrow never came, at least they would have this.

Inspired by P.S. I Love You (Prompt credit: Zenofbeingmommy). Letters of words left unspoken and feelings that would never be reciprocated back after death. What did they mean? What did they want? Will love still find a way even when the other isn't around anymore? Current Entry: Daryl's Rant (S2E9)

Daryl Dixon hated hospitals. He hated the way they smelled. He hated the bright fluorescent lights. He hated those stupid gowns they put you in. He hated all the sick people wandering around. But mostly he hated the way those doctors and nurses looked at him, like he was just another trashy, redneck junkie trying to score a prescription for Oxy. AU, no zombies

She had outlived all the other women from the original Atlanta group. She was the last one standing. Who could have seen that? Collection of drabbles, set after season 3. Disclaimer: The Walking Dead belong to Robert Kirkman and AMC. No copyright infringement intended. Chapter 51: Under Attack

"When he finally calmed a little he let one hand go off the steering wheel to latch onto hers, the quaking in his hand was the only tell to his distress [...] Carol could only hope that they'd make it through this, together." AU Daryl/Carol story of seasons 1&2 of The Walking Dead. (Titles and quotes taken from the Linkin Park Album with the same name) HIATUS

When the war with Woodberry comes unannounced in the dead of night it seems as if they are beyond help. Perhaps together, by the light of day, they may just make it through. [Speculative Post 3x13; not finale compliant. Contains some images of violence and character death] *Carol/Daryl*

Slowly, he started learning their names.

Wings A Walking Dead AU fanfiction by Ikkleosu. Rated: MA (Caryl) Summary: Merle Dixon convinces his brother to help him rob the house of the Peletier family. Daryl Dixon isn't so sure it's a good idea. He thinks robbing people's houses makes you somehow get involved in their lives. He doesn't realise how right he is. **************************************

'But she knew, in her gut this wasn't about the people of Woodbury. It wasn't about their growing community. It wasn't even about The Governor. It was Merle. It was always Merle.' Because I'm still not over Merle's death and some grieving needs to be done by Daryl. One shot... maybe more? (Title previously 'I'll see You Soon')

AU. Teaching archery to little kids was not the job Daryl had in mind, but he liked it. He liked it because Sophia was his best student, and her mother was the most beautiful woman he had ever met.

The prison falls, and the group is thrown back to square one. Homeless and hungry, an icy despair is settling itself into their bones, and they begin to question whether there's any good left in the world at all. AU. Caryl. Richonne. Mildrea.

Carol discovers that their mutually beneficial physical relationship may have some strings attached after all.

A quick follow up piece. Enjoy. Daryl finds himself alone after the prison falls. One shot.

Daryl is more aware of his choices regarding Carol than anyone knows, each choice changing their relationship bit by bit, but he doesn't know where the trail of choices will lead them, he can only follow. Set right after the Season 3 finale.

Everywhere he turned, there she was smiling at him and offering to keep him company. Following him around like a lost puppy. Sure, she was pretty and young, but she wasn't his type. Hell, he didn't even know if he had a type. All he knew that he wasn't interested. Maybe Carol would know how to help him get rid of her.

The new inhabitants of Woodbury make an excellent addition to the prison, but one woman in particular poses a threat to the friendship between Daryl Dixon and Carol. Unbeknownst to her, Karen becomes the catalyst for a development in their relationship. SPOILERS for 3x16.

Daryl is testing the boundaries of his relationship with Carol. AKA Tumblr Fluff.

She'll be there for him when he needs her to be.

Because God help anyone else who called him that. Caryl, oneshot, prompt response-ish.

A lot remains unspoken. Words are unnecessary.

A set of incoherent chapters done as requests for some very lovely people. Spoilers up to 03.16 within, and rated T for language. Caryl for the most part.

Jealousy hit him easy. Insecurity hit him hard. But as always, she knew exactly what to say. Caryl, post-S3 oneshot, Prompt Response!

She was like a star in all this hellish darkness. His one hope at finding home. Various Caryl-related oneshots and drabbles. Spoilers for season 3. COMPLETE.

At the request of CheapTrixie - another TWD Caryl fic. A "missing moments" fic from S3E10 onward. Will be as in-canon as possible through the finale... Carol/Daryl rotating POV, but lots of other character development as well.

Maybe he realized what he was possibly saving her from. Maybe he didn't. But it would literally take the end of the world for her to get the chance to thank him. A brief, pre-series Caryl meeting. Oneshot, prompt response!

He didn't want comfort, and he didn't want to be alone. He knew what he needed, and he hoped he wouldn't regret it all by morning. Caryl oneshot; prompt-response, adult content warning.

Lost love? Missed chances? Death? You name it. In the end it all boils down to the same god damned conclusion. Love is like taking an AK-47 to the chest from your best friend and only one of you living to tell about it. Turning your life into an uneven jig-saw of pain and guilt that eventually takes on a life of its own.

There is no privacy in a prison. They should have known that. From a prompt by SepticLovebite, "A fledgling relationship they've done their best to hide, getting caught in the act".

With the war against Woodbury on the horizon, Daryl takes a moment to prepare Carol for a worst case scenario. Pre-last two episodes of S3. Speculative.

Carol and Daryl spend their last night in the prison together before the war. Mild sexual themes.

After taking down as many enemies as she could, Carol waits at the designated meeting place for any sign of her family. She waits for hours after the final shot, afraid that she's now left alone in this cold world, until a familiar voice comes across.

One shot Caryl smut. Daryl and Carol make the most of their time together before the war with Woodbury begins. RAted: MA (for explicit sex)

What if Daryl had another reason for why he was so hell bent on returning to the prison with Merle besides shelter and food? This one-shot explores and extends the moment between Carol and Daryl in Ep 3.11 when they are reunited in his cell. But what would a reunion be without both Dixon brothers? Rated for Dixon mouth.

Tomorrow they would fight. Tomorrow they could die. And she may never get another chance to show him how much he means to her. Post-3x13 Caryl oneshot. Adult-content warning.

5 tiny posts I wrote for Tumblr today, in which Carol and Daryl spend some time together before the battle with Woodbury. Posting here at the request of zenofbeingmommy.

Episode Tag, Season 3: Episodes 5-7. They've lost so much. Sometimes it's difficult to find something left to believe in, sometimes it isn't difficult at all. (Daryl/Carol)

She didn't want to die with regrets.

"She'd lured him in like a stray, with warm smiles and kind words..." Carol and Daryl search for happiness together but it seems like there is always something standing in their way. Caryl AU inspired by a suggestion from the wonderful laceknee on Tumblr.

It's not too late, even if it's dark out, and Carol needs a moment of quiet.

Carol makes her move. One shot.

I was watching my favorite show with a lot of my friends who are writers, and I said I wished I could write the script where the whole Caryl thing finally happened. This is my pitiful attempt of a one shot that I JUST wrote that is a short and sweet version of it.

It wasn't his business before. He didn't like it, but it wasn't his business. Somehow, it was now. Caryl, post 3x11-ish, oneshot?

She understood why he didn't come back.  She knew better than anyone why Daryl did what he did.  It didn't stop her being angry with him.

A glimpse at the immediate aftermath of the events of 3x10 'Home'. A Caryl/Carick ficlet.

He has his panties in a wad and she knows exactly why. A post 3x09 Caryl confrontation. Oneshot.

Rick struggles to cope in the aftermath of his breakdown in 3x09. Carick; spoilers.

He was a friend. He was family. She didn't just care about him, she loved him.

He didn't consider how it calmed him to comfort her. Rick/Carol ficlet, 3x07-3x09. Spoiler warning!

Daryl returns with Merle in tow, and a mentally drained Rick confides in him. Rickyl/Caryl ficlet, speculative post 3x09, spoiler warning.

You'd think that with the end of the world, people would have stopped taking chances on long shots and maybes and just left him the hell alone. Because despite trying to keep the others at an arm's length, Rick, Glenn, Dale, Carol – the lot of them had only started to gravitate closer.

It wasn't something he really thought important enough to fret over, to actually DO something about. But that was before Carol started kissing him. A light and fluffy pre-S3 oneshot.

Carol finds bad memories concerning Christmas and Daryl resolves to undo the frown the holiday has set on her face. Caryl, Pre-S3, oneshot.

It was amazing what a little confidence could do for a person. Oneshot, pre-S3.

His instinct had always brought them together. (Set after 3/08. Daryl is back at the prison, and he doesn't like the way Axle's watching Carol.) T for potty mouths. Could change in the future. Not to sure about this one.

Every man has his breaking point, his edge. Axel the con just pushed Daryl over it. Spoilers for 3x08; rated for language!

"He had already decided it was one of the things about her he hated to love..." An extension of the Caryl "flirt scene" in 3x01 Seed. Oneshot; rated for language.

Daryl and Carol have grown comfortable around each other, and it's Daryl that begins to make the assumptions. A pre-premiere S3 oneshot. Rated for language.

She had gotten used to his dirty mouth. But she never expected his cursing to affect her like this. Caryl, rated for language and Mature!situations.
