from Rhinozilla's "30 Days of Caryl" challenge -
rnI did not complete all 30 days. I'm not even sure I got halfway there. But I had a hell of a lot of fun in the process.
My interpretations of different Caryl episodes - what they were thinking and what they were really saying underneath their infuriatingly vague interactions.
rnAll of the scenes and the dialogue are from the show, my only claim are their inner monologue and the hidden meanings in their conversations.
A collection of missing moments between Carol and Daryl from the second half of season six. smaller than dust on this map / lies the greatest thing we have: / the dirt in which our roots may grow / and the right to call it home (north, sleeping at last)
She finds it. He's lost it. Will she read it?
Carol and Daryl take the long road to being together.

A series of post-eps and missing moments throughout the series.
A series of stories fiddling around with late Season 5 Caryl and ignoring most of Season 6 and beyond.
When Daryl and Carol meet by accident, their lives change forever. And for the better. it starts /with our eyes well acquainted /with the darkness / the mind was made to illuminate the heart
A high school texting au that went off the rails and is careening down a mountain and you're all along for the ride.
Daryl and Carol, figuring out the road ahead.
rnA series of mostly-canon-compliant stand-alones that share a common continuity and the same in-jokes. Includes outside perspectives and non-romance focused stories. Open-ended and updated as the muse graciously permits. Generally PG-13/R for Dixon mouth, with canon-typical violence, other canon relationships and deaths, and sexual situations (including Caryl, as soon as TPTB permit).
Daryl's not exactly a game-playing sort of man, but he has trouble resisting Carol's pleas to lighten up. Over time, they grow closer through a series of games.
