Season 9 exclusive clip ending rewrite/headcanon.

It’s difficult because I am over here and you are over there, and when I am with you, hours feel like seconds, and when I am without you, days feel like years. -L.M.

Loss … it’s the only constant thing they’ve come to know. People come and go, there’s no rhyme or reason to it; at least none which can stop the ache gripping them now. When it feels as though the world is crumbling down around them, Carol and Daryl latch onto the only lifeline they have … the only one which has ever felt real. Late season 9 (theorized). Challenge response to Smutfest 3.0.

Everything is dark,

it’s more than you can take.

But you catch a glimpse of sunlight,

shining, shining down on your face.

Your face,

oh, your face.

The group is back together and have coordinated with the other colonies to fight Negan. Carol joins in on the fight to protect Daryl, but won't admit it. They try to put their plan into action, and things go bad. Set to happen almost right after the Season 7 mid-season premiere.

9x16. Daryl and Carol in a possible take on what happened after the ending of the sneak peek on the frozen pond.

Carol’s pregnant … surely, something Daryl hadn’t been expecting.  Oh, the joys of parenthood!  But first he has to survive something worse than a zombie apocalypse … hormones, cravings, midnight runs for pickles, sensitive boobs and the list goes on and on.

A venture into a collection of drabbles and prompts to clear my weary mind. All ratings and genres will probably be covered at some point, depends on how fickle my muse is being.
