Candace Jenner's compassion changes everything about the survival of the Grimes and Walsh families, as well as giving her distraught husband a reason to live. Add in one grumpy, antisocial redneck who can't figure out why he's fascinated with a former librarian (although Merle has a few obscenely unhelpful suggestions about that), and survival in the apocalypse is a lot more viable

Snapshots of how Rick and Michonne came to be. Companion piece to "(she is) love" but can be stand alone.

Ava and Rick have been through hell to find each other. Finally, they have safety within the Prison, but after everything they've been through, can this really last? Will Ava find the family she lost? And who will they lose along the way? They've survived so much, but can Rick and Ava survive the end of the world? Sequel to Between the Living and the Dead.

Caryl, AU. Mandrea, AU. It's backwards love, but it'll be love all the same. Western. Mail-Order Bride.

It was easier when the woman and kid were just part of the group. It was easier when they were nameless faces. But, not now. He couldn't ignore it any longer. Not now that he knew their names.

Post Season-2 AU: Unable to tolerate Rick's unraveling sanity during the cold winter spent wandering, Carol sets out to redirect his attention to a different way of coping. Unfortunately, happiness is fleeting in the apocalypse.

..Daryl/Beth.. Random one-shots from my various Daryl Dixon and Beth Greene stories.

Now updated and revised. Two years before the outbreak, Daryl had unexpectedly come to Katie’s rescue. Now, she needs him again. Only this time he has no idea she’s in trouble or that she’s even alive. This is the story of Katie and Daryl’s blooming friendship and her desperate escape to get back to him.

Beth escapes her Grady kidnappers before they reach the hospital, only to cross paths with a man she hasn't seen since before the farm fell. Life on a sailboat seems safer than on land, and it leads her and Shane to an adventure neither of them expected to find in the apocalypse before they're finally reunited with their families. Part of the Lost Deputy Collection.

Tea spent her life being the odd man out. Having spent her younger years suffering abuse for being autistic and ADHD, she came into the apocalypse ready to take on the world. Daryl Dixon, a hunter and survivor like her, wanted nothing to do with the little girl who through herself into his world. But at the end of it all, can one really say no to love? I don't own TWD or its plot.

The Dixon brothers find something unexpected wandering the streets of Atlanta barefoot and alone, family.

Victoria was a survivor, who was quite content staying on her own. However, certain circumstances forced her to perform a quick reality check and join the group on Hershel's farm. Pairing: Daryl/OC. Rated M for language and future (smutty) events.

(OC x OC) Bianca Downs believes it'll only be a few weeks before she sees her boyfriend again, but when the outbreak turns into an apocalypse hellscape, she realizes she may never see him again.

A long-lost friend of Michonne's is found and brought into the prison - she's light-hearted, sunny and friendly and DAMN if she isn't the biggest pain in the ass that Daryl has ever met. He could never be friends with a girl like that! Right? Uh, wrong. Their paths keep crossing, and eventually friendship isn't enough. Fluff, drama & more. Starts S4, mostly non-canon. (Daryl/OC)

What starts off as a summer project turns into a look at the Z/A through the eyes of a teenage girl as she begins her journey through life.

Addy May (OC) finds herself under the care and protection of Merle Dixon. When she runs off into the woods after a bitter fight, Addy finds out just what happens when you worry a gruff man like Merle Dixon. Snap-shot story. AU. WARNING: contains non-sexual disciplinary SPANKING of an adult female by an adult male. If this offends you, do NOT read.

The reader and Daryl get close... very close. (Basically a smut series beginning after season 3)

Daryl / OC Please read! Everything will be explained in story! Enjoy!

Ace had been alone for almost a week before she is found. After the dead have risen, she gets offered a place in a camp overlooking Atlanta. If only the group would listen to her, she may be more skilled than they believe. TWD Fanfiction - I only own the OC and a few characters down the line.

When out recruiting, Aaron and Daryl come across a sister and brother. A slow burn (I think). Rated M for language and later chapters. Starts sometime after Forget and before Spend. *Now extended into mild AU because I have no idea about Season 8. Nothing slow about the burn now.

Yumiko and Magna share a dance at the ball. Things evolve from there. (Season 11, Episode 10 Fix-It fic)

"very non-traditional alpha/omega dynamics. loosely based." When Rick encounters a group of alphas, he is neck-deep up shit creek with his mouth wide open. Things are about to escalate, when a stranger suddenly interrupts: "Well isn't this a party?" Who the hell is this guy? Rick/Negan
