1.) Favorite Fanfiction Authors?

BettyBubble, CharlotteAshmore, ICanStopAnyTime, lilabut, Marie1063, RandomCat, sienna27, silversundown are just some of them, there are so many good ones I keep coming across

2.) Favorite fanfictions in last 12 mos?

There are so many wonderful, absolutely beautiful stories here and I know that I have barely scratched the surface.  I’m always finding new ones to read.  Here are some of them Bad Seed Rising-foreverlovingdaryldixon, Don’t Kiss-BettyBubble, We Ain’t Ashes-Shannonsto, A Henchman-BettyBubble, Infinite Possibilities-silversundown, Predestination-silversundown, Liberty and Justice-ramblinrose, Until the Last Breath-silversundown, A Demon’s Fate-Ravenheart, apartment twelve-lilabut, This is Now-sienna27, Expectation vs Reality-silversundown & lilabut

3.) Favorite fic trope?

That is hard as it kind of depends on the mood I’m in.  I like pre-series where somehow they meet before or something changes that has them meeting differently, or like a what if scenario.  Like what if Carol hadn’t found them at Terminus or what if Sophia was found (which I was really rooting for Daryl to do when I first watched it and even when I’ve rewatched it and know the result I still hope).  I also like AUs where there is no zombie apocalypse and seeing their interactions based on circumstances now.

4.) What would you like to see more of, or what haven’t you seen in a fic that you would like to see? 

Hmmm…I’m trying to think.  I know that sometimes I’ll think of an idea but then I’ll end up finding it already written.  It would be cool maybe to see more of things either set in last season or the future.  Or perhaps maybe like some more based on different movies or shows.

5.) What made you start shipping Caryl? 

5.) Me and one of my sisters (based on the constant urging of one of our other sisters who watched the show from the start) finally started watching it last March I believe.  It didn’t take long to really love it nor did it take long to love the characters (first season).  I know it was in the second season really that made me like the idea of them and not just because of who their characters were it was also in the softer way he spoke to her when they had to come back to the road after not finding Sophia and the way he didn’t stop looking for her and then I think in Cherokee Rose is when it really cemented it in my mind without fully realizing how deep it was.  It didn’t take long to cherish all of their scenes and continually fall for them as it went on or everytime I see a scene again.
