In a world full of danger lurking in every corner, Birdie Jackson stayed silent. Learned to keep quiet during the loud, be angry when shown the good. The apocalypse had ripped her out of her childish manners and into a world full of knife-wielding and blood-soaked hands. The woods became her and her father's sanctuary, their car that was running out of fuel being the only thing holding them together. Foods stolen from abandoned houses began to empty out, their chance of survival slim with every passing day. So, Vincent left to go on a run. But he didn't come back. It took three long, excruciating weeks before Birdie left the car - with only a knife for protection and determination fuelling her forward. That was the day she lost something, and gained something else. Something that would not only make her find her voice again, but fill that hole in her chest that had been once carved into her by loss and grief. ꜱɪɴᴄʟᴀɪʀꜱ © 2025 ꜱᴛᴀʀᴛᴇᴅ. 26 / 01 / '25 ꜰɪɴɪꜱʜᴇᴅ. ?? ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇꜱ ꜱᴇᴛ ɪɴ ꜱᴇᴀꜱᴏɴ 3.

She had to learn how to survive on her own...but no one ever prepared her for a man like him. For April Reinhardt, every day is a gamble. Food. Shelter. Safety. Nothing is guaranteed, especially not for a young woman and the seven-year-old niece she's sworn to protect. So when she finds a dying man in the woods, the first living soul she's seen in months, she should keep walking. Instead, she does something that should have died with the old world. She helps him. And when he realizes he owes her his life, he won't let her go so easily. Rick Grimes is closed off, carved hollow by grief, and determined to keep everyone at arm's length. But if Rick truly wanted to stay that way, he shouldn't have brought April and her niece back to camp, because the cost of her presence might be more than he bargained for. Tension sparks. Distrust lingers. Survival demands proximity. What begins as sharp words and reluctant alliances turns into something far more dangerous. A slow, aching hunger that doesn't fade, no matter how hard they try to starve it. But the world they live in doesn't reward love. It punishes it. And when everything burns, even the strongest hearts don't always survive.

After awaking from a coma, Rick Grimes was forced to come to grips with the harsh reality that life as he knew it was over. When he finally reunites with his family, he never expected to meet a woman named June Gomez. She is the antithesis of a damsel in distress; she's everything a survivor should be and more. The journey to find a safe place to restart is dangerous and lengthy, but as long as June is by his side, he feels as if he could take on the world. --THIS IS RICK'S POINT OF VIEW OF THE EVENTS THAT HAPPEN IN DEAD MAN WALKING-- -- I HIGHLY RECOMMEND READING THE FIRST STORY AND THEN COMING TO THIS ONE IF YOU HAVEN'T YET--

⚠️VERY SLOW UPDATES⚠️ Quinn Greene was a kind soul. He was adopted by Hershel Greene after his parents left him on the side of the road beaten and bruised at the age of 10. Hershel found him and took him in raising Quinn as his own. Quinn was kind and bright. He was a surgeon a damn good one, too. He was always first to lend a helping hand to those in need, putting others first before himself. He was almost always talking about anything and everything, mainly about his favorite music. That all changed when the apocalypse started. It left Quinn longing for the man he once was. Rick Grimes x Male oc I haven't seen TWD in a little while, so I apologize if there are mistakes

People don't arrive broken. They start with passion and yearning, till something comes along that disabuses them of those notions. Some people stay broken. Some pick up the pieces and put them back together with all the sharp edges showing. Every great decision creates ripples, like a huge boulder after being dropped in a lake. The ripples merge and rebound off the banks in unforeseeable ways. The heavier the decision, the larger the waves, the more uncertain the consequences. (active updates + active revisions)
