    Summary

    AU shooting off after Daryl and Merle are rescued from Woodbury. Glenn realizes that the group would be lost without Daryl and lobbies to have him come back to the prison, even if that means they have to deal with Merle, too.

    Having Daryl there at that critical time makes all the difference.

    ~or~

    Glenn liked to call Daryl “The Rick Whisperer.” Not to his face, of course. Not usually out loud at all, except to Maggie when they were alone. But in his head, that’s what he usually thought when he saw the two of them together. Daryl seemed to be the only one that could consistently talk sense to Rick. Hershel would try, but somehow Rick seemed more receptive when Daryl was the one talking, even if they said the same thing.

    Summary

    “See you on the other side.”
    A click. A bang. Darkness.

    Rick jerked awake, head swiveling as he took in his surroundings. He was in a car. No, not just a car. A police cruiser. His police cruiser. Confusion mounting he looked to his right to see Shane, eyes wide and head whipping around in a panic.
    “What the fuck,” Shane exclaimed.

    After the coalition is attacked and falls, Rick wakes up - with all of his memories - exactly three weeks before the start of the outbreak. He immediately begins planning, but it soon becomes clear that not everyone remembers the previous timeline. Will Rick manage to bring his family back together and protect them this time? And what exactly is going on between him and that hunter with a crossbow?

    Summary

    Daryl escaped the Sanctuary, but the Sanctuary didn’t leave him. Rick’s people are biding their time, preparing for war; Daryl is battling his demons and trying to come to grips with the fact that he can’t do it alone. Rick is walking a tightrope between Negan, Michonne, Daryl, and his own feelings.

    And why won’t Rick tell Daryl why Michonne and Rick as a couple is a thing of the past?
    What the hell happened while he was caged in the Sanctuary?
    And what the fuck are they gonna do with Negan?

    Time: Canon plotline more or less followed up to 7.08. Canon timeline, however, is blithely ignored: Daryl’s captivity lasted much longer in this fic.

    Summary

    They weren’t really out there with it so when Daryl is suggested to go and be in charge of the saviors there is no reason to decline. Especially since Rick didn’t say anything either.

    But then the “temporary situation” went on for a lot longer than expected.

    Long story short Daryl didn’t really like that.
