Daryl makes one reckless decision, allowing himself to be pulled into a dream he had let die long before the outbreak. DarylxCarol.

He was so close, so very close; then she stumbled out of that barn, a walker. Daryl wasn't fast enough to save her, and now, the only thing left to do is save Carol. But maybe, she'll be the one to save him?

In the chaos of a walker ambush Carl and Sophia are separated from their parents, placing them in the care of Daryl Dixon, who is fully capable of surviving on his own but has no experience being a guardian. Will he be able to get them all back safely?

A look into the lives of Daryl and Carol four years after the events of season 3. Some spoilers for the mid-season finale.

Sequel to 'Never Too Late', although it can probably be read on its own. This takes place in the eight months between seasons 2 and 3. "It was day four after leaving the farm. Day four of running like rabbits, scurrying every which way, no clear direction in mind other than 'away'. Away from the nightmare that had been their last night on the farm."

Carol has something to tell Daryl. But how will he take the news? Fear keeps her unsure. But it might just take some faith in the man she loves. Serious Caryl.

Rick and Glenn find Daryl, lost, bloodied, and broken in the woods. How did he escape from Woodbury? And who can stop him from going over the edge?

Daryl and Carol are stuck. Stuck in a salvage yard, stuck surrounded by walkers, and stuck with each other. So they wait. Wait for the danger to pass. Caryl, and Violence.

Daryl and Judith make their through the world after losing the only people they had left in it. They live to survive in a world where there's nothing left. And all Daryl can do is remember those he's lost. Hints at Caryl.

Carol fled the walker invasion at the prison with the help of T-Dog. But they never came looking for her. He never came. Carol, a slight hint at Caryl and some T-Dog.

Carol wakes from a nightmare, shaken, remembering a past she longs to forget and a daughter she hopes never to. Hint at Caryl.

The world was ending. That was how it looked. People were walking around, people who were already dead, and eating each other. So the world was ending. But Carol's world had been at the edge for a long time. And this was merely the final push into the abyss. Darkfic. Pls read rating warning. Follow-up story has been posted!

Winter has been kicking their asses so far, but a warm fire, the spirit of family, and the closeness of each other makes it all bearable. Holiday special. Slight hint at Caryl coz I just love them.

As the apocalypse crashes down around them, Daryl and Merle only have each other in the flight from their childhood home. The struggle to survive brings out the anger, resentment, and love that forever tie them together.

"Carol stared at the wall. She was lying on her side in an unfamiliar bed—a stranger's bed, abandoned until she'd taken it up the night before. It rested in an abandoned room. An abandoned house. A nameless town." When the group spends the winter in Daryl's hometown, Carol finds herself joining him in a dangerous journey through his past.

Daryl's scars have an effect on Carol when he comes back from Woodbury, exhausted, and with someone else. Someone that doesn't play well with others. Daryl/Carol/Merle.

The life of the Dixon brothers before the world went to shit. The bad, the ugly, and sometimes, maybe even the good. Nobody ever said we got to choose our family.

Merle wasn't an unreasonable man. All he wanted to do was survive, find his brother and wreak bloody and terrible vengeance on Officer Friendly & Co. You'd think it wouldn't be a hell of lot to ask for, but with the dead walking around it's hard for a guy to catch a break. It wouldn't be so bad if he didn't still have to deal with the living... Merle/OC Drugs, sex & violence.

Merle was separated from the group through his own actions - but we all know that wouldn't have been the end of him - and that somehow he would find his way back to his brother. This is how he got there and the strange pairing OC that just happened.

What could mundanely go wrong, when living a life outside? A humorous look at some of the perils found on the road. Complete.

When Carol discovers that Daryl can't read, she takes it upon herself to teach him. But when boundaries are crossed, and disaster strikes, it's up to Carol to fix the broken hunter. Rated for mentions of past abuse, violence, torture, and language. Caryl angst/comfort.

"Well, if dis ain't a day for de history books. Here I was tinkin' you was a Marine; must a gotten ya confused with dem National Guard bougs." Merle chuckled as he opened one eye, seeing a flash of dark red hair. "Gotta be in hell, Frenchie; Never would a let ya in upstairs." Merle/OFC, warnings inside. 'T' for now, rating will probably go up later
