Summary
The world keeps falling apart, but having someone warming Daryl's life makes it worth living for more than just the next cig; If Daryl is the outdoor cat, his partner is the indoor dog.
While scavenging the group hears some batshit guy actually singing! Although drawn in by the affable, bodybuilding musician straight from the off, Daryl has a lot of darkness in his past to work through. Struggling to accept who he is, even when he sees himself shine in the sky-blue reflection of his lover's eyes, it takes time, patience, and a hell of a lot of foreplay.
Their family unexpectedly grows when they find a feral boy with daggers for eyes. Parenting in the apocalypse is no easy task, especially not when Merle comes back from the dead, angry at his brother for playing house with a man. Not to mention a new enemy that makes Daryl's skin crawl - his lover's ex. Can Daryl be a husband, father, and leader?
Enjoy Daryl falling in love against his own reservations, existing in that love, and the family they make. Even ol' Unc'ey Merle.

Summary
“Look at that dog! It’s huge!” the girl squealed.
Erik’s ears flicked back, his instincts screaming both warning and curiosity. The children approached the fence cautiously, one holding out a hand as if inviting him.
He growled low in his throat, a warning not meant to hurt, but to keep his distance.
The children froze, startled, but didn’t run. Instead, they whispered to each other, fascination shining in their eyes.
Erik’s stomach twisted painfully—a sudden reminder of hunger. He had eaten nothing since the battle, and the smells here were foreign and confusing. His wolf mind urged him to hunt, but there was no familiar scent of rabbit or deer. Just strange smells, unrecognizable and distant.
He licked his dry tongue and retreated silently into the thicker brush.

Actually, if he really thought about it, Merle didn't really know what Daryl could offer a girl like that besides his soft heart and definitely his hard cock BUT little Green was everything the younger Dixon needed.

Summary
Story takes place Durring The Hunger games The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes in an alternate timeline where TWD apocalypse happened (post Main series ending including FTWD and World Beyond spin offs) with characters from Dying light 1, The hungergames movies/books, 13 Reasons why, and Shameless incorporated into the plot Along with TWD Universe characters I didn’t think deserved their fates in the shows. The perspective follows main characters Lucy Gray and Coriolanus Snow, with some changes in perspective depending on the chapter. For context The story stays the same as the movie up until right before Coryo catches Sejanus talking to Lil outside the capitol jail But a horrific revelation comes to light changes their fates forever. The world fell and Panem was created as a plan to fix the world by the military and Government members in secret incase of an apocalypse. One massive city and 13 districts. Offcourse walkers exist in this universe so people in the districts and the capitol military/ Wealthy/ gov learned to kill walkers as they do in the walking dead series.

Summary
The undead are slimming in numbers and Earth seems to be restoring itself. You've found a routine that works for you: wake up, eat from the stash of canned goods you found weeks ago, find resources for the little home you're building, sleep—survive. It's only when a stranger steals from you that the routine you've looked forward to for as long as you could remember is severed in half, and there's nothing sweeter than revenge.

Summary
Daryl awakens disoriented on the shores of France, with no memory of how he arrived and only fragments of his past to guide him. Struggling through an unfamiliar city, he scavenges supplies, evades armed strangers, and recalls pieces of his childhood—most vividly Evelyn, the girl who once offered him kindness when no one else would. Fate brings them back together when she rescues him from near death, revealing herself as a doctor and leader haunted by past trauma and hunted by Carlos, a ruthless mercenary. Their reunion rekindles buried trust, but also forces both to confront guilt, survival, and the fragility of hope. As the monastery sanctuary crumbles under Carlos’s looming threat, Evelyn and Daryl’s bond deepens, tested by loss, betrayal, and violence. They managed to make it back to Alexandria but amid shattered communities and relentless danger, they cling to each other, discovering that love, loyalty, and survival may be the only light left in a world that refuses to stop taking.
*Evelyn is 32 and Daryl is 33. 2 years have passed since the outbreak at the beginning of this story.*
