Summary
Lennon Wilde is a vet tech in Atlanta when the world falls apart. She knows how to work hard, stay useful, and never ask for too much—lessons learned young on her grandparents' farm. But survival in the apocalypse requires different skills: trusting people who haven't earned it, accepting help she can't repay, and believing she deserves to take up space even when she's not being useful.
Found family, slow burn, and one anxious vet tech learning that the end of the world might be the beginning of actually living.
Canon divergent AU —some events may unfold differently. Follows The Walking Dead's general timeline and events with an original character.

Summary
The world keeps falling apart as the dead walk it, 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 crazy guy actually singing! Although drawn in by the talkative, affable musician with a bodybuilder's physique straight from the off, Daryl still has a lot of darkness in his past to work through. Daryl struggles 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 lone 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.
Enjoy Daryl falling in love against his own reservations and the family they make. Even ol' Unc'ey Merle.

Falling Slowly - Daryl's POV by zmbiekllr

Summary
A companion piece to my original story, Falling Slowly.... but this one is from Daryl Dixon's POV! Each chapter will correlate with the matching chapter from the original story. However, you can also read this as a standalone piece.
In short, this is a story about Daryl Dixon falling in love with you, but really, really slowly and (hopefully) somewhat realistically. It may end up spanning the entirety of the Walking Dead TV series, and perhaps extend into the time period in which Daryl travels to France, Spain, and beyond (if I can get that far). It's sweet and romantic and takes quite a while for the good stuff (the smut) to start, just like it would with the real Daryl Dixon. If you want to truly immerse yourself into the TWD world and re-frame the entire thing around what a romantic relationship with everyone's favorite archer might be like, this story is for you.
I want to figure out how to link the chapters together - if someone can help me do that, please message me (I'm new here!)

Summary
Daryl’s POV:
Following the prison’s fall, Daryl sets out to find survivors while Rick recovers. He thought he was ready for anything the world could throw at him—he was wrong. She’s silent, smart, lethal, and somehow manages to make his life infinitely more complicated. Trust is fragile, danger is constant, and distraction could be fatal. Which is a serious problem when that distraction is reading smut in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. She might’ve saved his life—or ruined it. He hasn’t decided yet.Fin’s POV:
Three years surviving alone has taught her to trust no one… until a boy and his injured dad force her hand. Now her orderly life is in chaos, and one newcomer has her thinking—and feeling—things she never should. People are dangerous, the dead aren’t so bad, and Daryl? He could be either a temporary distraction… or total destruction. If she doesn’t shoot him first.Mid Season 4-Departs from Cannon with world building.
