Summary
Rick knows when he sees Carol sitting in that cell that he's got Daryl to thank for it. And then he gets to thinking about just how much he really owes him, about what he really feels about him, and about how, somehow, "trust" just don't seem like strong enough a word for it anymore.
Angst, romance, fluff, and a little bit of h/c all rolled into one Rickyl one-shot.

Summary
"Rick knows it's a mistake, letting Merle into the prison. He knows it can only end badly, put the group at risk, put 'em on edge. He's doing his level best to keep both to a minimum, but it's a losing battle. And that ain't even his biggest concern doing this. It's Daryl."
Merle-induced Daryl angst, Protective!Rick, Daryl/Rick fluff.

Summary
"'I read somewhere,' Carol says. 'If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never yours at all.'
But Daryl snorts. 'Fuck that," he says. 'I come back, you best put a bullet in me.'"
In which Daryl gets bitten, and Rick's not ready to let him go. Maybe for good reason. Rick/Daryl slash
Spoiler: NOT character death. Because I'm a weak human being.

Summary
Daryl's acting odd, slipping off by himself and getting all highstrung for no good reason. It comes to a head when Daryl breaks the cardinal rule of supply runs: no staying out past nightfall. With no idea why - whether he was caught by the storm, whether he was caught by walkers...or worse - Rick has no choice but to wait for him to come back...and deal with what comes after.

Daryl's got the evening off. How he ends up spending it babysitting Lil' Asskicker, he couldn't tell you if you asked. And how he ends up tusslin' with Rick outside's even more of a mystery. All he knows is there's something the matter with Rick, and he means to find out what it is. It's theirs to look after each other; it's just what they do.
