Johnny is in San Francisco and meets a nice lady and her son, they go by the name Garrett. Echos of past events. California says Johnny is just the place for new starts with whatever name you choose.

ZA, AU - Daryl runs into Carol and Sophia one night shortly before society begins to crumble. Their relationships, and canon events, are re-imagined as a result. Multi-chapter, pre-show and moving through season 2. Caryl straight friendship to start, shift in their relationship as things move forward.

Scott Lancer finds himself in a pleasant dream that may turn out to be real.

Growing up, Sundays had been hell. And yes, he did mean that in a literal sense.

Other people still looked down their noses at him. Still gave him looks he pretended not to see, and whispered things he pretended not to hear.

Taken by Negan, Daryl has to find a reason to go on when his guilt spiral threatens to drag him under. His thoughts before facing his death included moments of closeness with the family he made after the Turn. In his hour of greatest need, one very special person who has always believed in him appears, giving him hope.

"Anger made you stupid, Michonne had said that once, in some far away town filled with the dead, and Carl couldn't afford to do anything stupid." My take on what Carl was thinking during the season 6 finale. Two part: Set during that ending scene with Negan.

Title says all. Daryl makes a list for Carol about why he is cooler than Tobin. Daryl may be slightly jealous...

Richonne Just Desserts is excited to announce we have gathered an amazing group of Richonne writers to bring to you 25 Days After Negan. This will be a Round Robin event where each writer will take a day and write a sequential flash fic about what will transpire in Rick and Michonne's lives after they're hit by devastation. This is spoiler free based on speculation and comic clues.

COMPLETE Negan wants to convert Rick and Daryl into Saviors. When he can't persuade them with words, he tries another method. Starts right where 'Last Day on Earth' left off, and Daryl is in bad shape after getting shot. Friendship, hurt / comfort, angst, drama, bromance, whump. Written before season 7 aired.

Rick and Michonne begin to deal with their loss and grief. Set after episode 7x1.

There aren't enough flashbacks to 'before' so I decided to write some. Each story is a short view into the lives of our main characters before the apocalypse. What kind of people were Glenn, Rick, Michonne, Maggie, Carol, ect before all of this? What did they do, what were their favorite things?

Carol and Daryl grow closer on a run for formula, but when the prison is lost, a wedge is driven between them, and they begin to drift apart. Will they be able to renew their relationship in the Kingdom?

The group deal with the outcome of Negan's decision.

The people in the Alexandria Safe Zone get to know the new band of survivors who have joined their community, including puzzling out just what's up with the cookie baking den mother and the feral loner who brought fresh possum for dinner.

Daryl and Rick finally have room to breathe in Alexandria, time to come to terms with what they've found thanks to the apocalypse. Maybe some things aren't best left unsaid. A Rickyl fic in three parts, with hints of Richonne and Caryl. Rated T for language.

Rick finds out Michonne has been keeping a secret from him.

Michonne is held and assaulted by a group member while on a run. 'Make You Feel My Love' lyrics by Bob Dylan

Dandrea, short (non-romantic). S2, Ep3 "Save the Last One." Daryl always guessed she was simply playing a game that she couldn't really win.

Caryl, short. S1, Ep5 "Wildfire." He understood all of it, but he couldn't tell her that. Her secrets were out, but he still wanted to keep his.

This is a one-shot that takes place maybe a week or so before Richonne becomes cannon. Carl needs some help from his family. A/N: So I've decided to make this a series of one-shots. Some will follow a chronological order, some will just be things that came to mind.

Michonne, a successful lawyer and connoisseur of fine art struggles through the chaos, suffering and loss of the world breaking under the pressure of a worldwide zombie pandemic. Will she break along with it or like the blade she carries will she be forged stronger in the fire. AU backstory for Michonne. Rated T for violence, language and sexual references. Ch. 1 complete.

Lucille landed on Rick Grimes' skull as Negan executed him in front of his group and the Saviors.

"They all have their demons, but they're a group, a family, and they would anything to keep everyone alive. Anything." - 6x13. implied Caryl.

Dixonne. AU. Fluffy. Michonne's at home, waiting on a special parcel to arrive. She doesn't expect that meeting the delivery man might be the nicest part of her day. (Despite the unavoidable innuendo, this is not smut.)

Takes place a few days after S6E8. Daryl has returned to the ASZ and found Carol still unconscious. Alexandria has been cleared of walkers and the group is rebuilding after their loses. Not sure how many chapters there will be. May or may not follow actual events in the comic, depends on how it flows. This is Caryl, so if you aren't into that sort of thing, kindly move along.

Caryl AU. Discussion of Beth, non-romantic (I'd never write romantic Bethyl). In the aftermath of everything that had happened, Carol knew that he had to deal with his feelings. She knew that he had to work them out before they ate him up. Fear, anger, sadness. They were all emotions they were both dealing with. But so was love. Love for their families, and for each other.

Daryl gets the common cold virus after arriving in Alexandria and recovers at Carol's house. Contains copious amounts of frosting and shirtless Daryl and sparse amounts of sticky notes.

"He stood mystified, transfixed, at the scene before him. Like it was straight out of a Hallmark Greeting card..." Written for the "Pain and Pleasure" Nine Lives Challenge. Fluff. [Carol x Daryl]

Cyreese AU. Oneshot. Tyreese and Carol's lives haven't ended up the way they might have thought they would, but that isn't always a bad thing. Just fluffy niceness. Carol/Tyreese
