Summary: Daryl and Carol try to build new lives after the war with the Saviors. Will they be able to build one together? I took liberties with the weather since it’s never actually winter on the show. Takes place after season eight, with spoilers through 8-13.

Story Notes:
This started out as a response to the phrases and expression challenge, but didn’t get finished in time. Then it morphed into a trope challenge fic, the trope being mutual pining. Still didn’t get finished in time. Now it’s gojng to be a multi chapter WIP.
