  • Comfort And Joy

    ZA, but still AU. Caryl. It's Christmas Eve for Daryl and Carol. A time of comfort and joy. One shot written late for the "Joy Challenge" on Nine Lives. Just for fun.

  • A Game of Tag

    Caryl. A little oneshot/drabble for CheerfulB. She wanted it to go along with "Of a Certain Age" and fulfill a little headcannon that she has. If nothing else, hopefully it's a little entertaining. It's years later, and they're happy together, but maybe there's something more that they need in this game of life.

  • The Pursuit of Happiness

    Caryl oneshot. Daryl pursues what may be the last thing on Earth to bring complete happiness.

  • Behold

    He didn't want to lose her, not after finding her and finding his voice for his feelings. She didn't want to go. Neither of them expected the way that their lives would go. Post Season 4 One shot (my first one shot). Caryl.

  • In A Good Way

    Carick. "The Elders say...we must treat her in a good way." Rick hasn't always been honest with himself or with her. Now he realizes that he needs her, all the facets of her, by his side. But is it possible to come back from what he's done and where they've been to start over and build something new? Can he treat her, now, as he should and failed to do in the past?

  • Long Way 'Round

    This is a Dixonne fic, but there's whole group involvement. It's the sequel to What Future Is There? Together Daryl and Michonne, along with the rag tag family they've built out of some of the most unlikely people, are trying to build a future for themselves and for those that they love, no matter what the odds are. (I'm terrible at summaries, sorry.)

  • Some Light at the End

    AU but ZA Caryl. Life and death both will bring darkness, but we survive it by holding onto the promise that there will always be some light at the end.

  • To Howl At The Moon

    Mandrea (Merle Dixon, Andrea) AU, Caryl (Daryl Dixon, Carol) secondary/appearances. He's always been a lone wolf, drawn by the prowl and the thrill of the escape. She's a she-wolf content to be alpha female of her own domain. But even the most cunning and elusive creatures can sometimes be captured. Rated M for language, some violence, and sexual content.

  • Not My Father's Son

    Michandrea One Shot. Most of who we are is made up of what we know, what we are told, and what we remember all blended together. He knew that he was not his father's son.

  • Love Child

    She has a troubled past that she can't always recall. He loves her for her present and together they focus on their future. What will they do when the past returns from where it is buried and they must deal with it to continue with their lives? Caryl story. Rated M for a adult situations, sexual situations, language, etc.

  • Road Dogs

    If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there. - Lewis Carroll The end of the world has a way of bringing some pretty unlikely people together, all trying to outrun something, even if they don't know what it is. How long can they keep running before the road just runs out?

  • The Roses Still Grow in Georgia

    Caryl. ZA but AU. It's been many years, but years don't erase the memories. No matter how far they go and no matter what they experience, they always know that, for their tears shed, the roses still grow in Georgia. Oneshot.

  • All The King's Horses

    All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put their hearts back together again...Caryl AU. He's a single father with just one concern and a past he'd rather leave behind him. She's a single mother just looking for a new start and an escape from her own past. Everyone knows life is not a fairy tale. Caryl, Mandrea Rated M for sexual content, violence, language, etc.

  • In A Mother's Heart

    Caryl oneshot. Season 3, but I've taken some liberties with the plot/timeline. Sometimes lovers have secrets. A mother's heart, too, is a place often full of her own secrets. She could guard them all.

  • Birds, Bees, and Even Dixons Do It

    AU/ZA Caryl. Things around the prison are buzzing and Merle takes it upon himself to give his little brother a lesson about the animal nature in everyone...even Dixons. Rated for language and possible second chapter. It features, in person, only the Dixon brothers, but carries heavy Caryl implications.

  • Alone Together

    Tarenn. AU. They're alone in the world with only their own feelings, ghosts of their past experiences, and each other to keep them company. Tara/Glenn

  • How it's Done

    It's great to have friends to show you how it's done. Light and fun. AU one shot. Alice/Daryl broTP. Caryl Rated for language only.

  • On My Honor

    Sometimes just deciding you're ready isn't enough...you've got to prove that you deserve what you want out of life, prove that you've got what it takes... Cyreese, eventual Caryl, other possible relationships and group involvement.

  • Of A Certain Age

    Caryl (primarily) AU. In your 20's you're still growing up, in your 30's your an adult, but no one explains to you exactly what it means when you cross over to being "of a certain age" and you still feel just the same as you did before. Some would say that the excitement of your life is over, but really it's just beginning. M for language, sexual content, etc.

  • Traveler's Meditation

    "Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back." -Robert Frost Eventually Caryl...though with contemplation/discussion of Tyreese/Carol and strong friendship there. They don't think they'll ever see each other again because roads lead naturally away from their starting point...
