Daryl Dixon x Reader

Run.

That's the first basic instinct a person can have in life. To run. Whether you are running late, exercising, playing a sport, games as a child, or simply because you enjoy it. Running is important to life... especially when one's life is in danger. The adrenaline takes over and the amount of energy a person can have is unimaginable; they can run for hours if need be. Fight-or-Flight Response, as some people call it.

The desperate need to run.

The best advice when the sound of snarling trails behind you, catching up with hostile intent? Run. Run and never look back. The world, in simple terms, had gone to shit. Without warning, everyone found themselves having to run and fight in order to survive. Although, no one ever expected to be fighting the dead. With humanity on the brink of extinction, (Y/N) finds herself stumbling across a group and joins them in an attempt to survive to see another day, though she never expected the day would come where she'd call these people her family.

I do not own any of the characters in this story, they belong to Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore.

SHANE'S GIRL ➵ D. DIXON by wannabespacesmuggler

Daryl Dixon knows he shouldn't be thinking about you when he's alone at night in his tent. Hell, he shouldn't even be looking at you throughout the day. You're not his. You're Shane's girl. But Daryl doesn't like the way Shane treats you. And he certainly doesn't like how you're forced to play 'loving girlfriend' to a man with eyes for another woman at the camp. All Rights Reserved.

Drisson [DarylDixon} by baylee1245

BOOK ONE S1-S3 In this new world, you have to make difficult choices. Fight for survival or succumb to circumstance. Close yourself off or give into your desires. Start over or give up. A split second decision can change your entire life. Will she fight to survive or fight to live? Drisson /dree-sawn/ an unexpected twinge of attraction for a friend; a flutter of desire that seemingly came out of nowhere, but makes perfect sense in a twisted way that as fleeting as the moment was, you know it changes everything, leaving you in fear of what happens next --- This is my first story that I will be uploading. I'm going to stay true to the characters, but I will also be including some original ideas. The will be some changes to the storyline, whether that be minor or major. For the most part, I will stick to the plot line written by the creators of TWD. The first few chapters will be longer than the others. I wanted to be able to really make sure to give the characters their time. I do not own/have any rights to TWD or the characters, dialog, scenes, etc. *DarylDixon x OC ENJOY!!

Safe [Daryl Dixon X Reader] by deadseoulwriter

Hurt, pain, torture; that's all you've ever endured. Never, have you felt ecstasy or pride. A life with your parents made sure of that. Friends... aren't something you've decided to make a reality. They were a fantasy. A broken one at that. So, when the dead start walking you find yourself thinking, "Will you ever truly be alive again?" [COMPLETED]

Little Star - TWD Fanfiction by sugarlogics

☆ - The old world is gone. Any happiness you've ever felt before is now gone. At least, that's how Finley sees it. Finley Reyes has lost everything. Anything she has once loved has been snatched from her hands and thrown into the depths of the ocean. She would never, ever smile again. Or that's what she thought. Just when she figured that everything was over for her, a teenager pointed a gun at her. That was only the beginning of the rest of her life, which would be filled with people that she would rather die than see hurt. Main Character: Finley Reyes Love Interest: Daryl Dixon THIS FANFICTION CONTAINS MAJOR "THE WALKING DEAD" SPOILERS!! DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED THE SHOW.

Angel by WalkerWitch

Daryl Dixon is completely on his own. After the Saviors burn down Alexandria, he thinks that he is the only survivor. Living without the group that he has come to love, has left him as nothing more than a shell of the man he used to be. One day after a brutal fight, he stumbles upon a run-down shack in the woods. As he lay dying on the dirty floor, his life is saved by a complete stranger. These two loners find that living life together is so much better than doing it alone. I haven't written a story in the first person since Broken. It's not as easy as it sounds, but I enjoyed the challenge. This story has taken me months to write and I finished it just days after the Season 8 midseason finale. Any similarities to that episode are pure coincidence. I wrote the chapter (You'll know which one) months before Season8 even started. For anyone that is newly following me or reading my books, I write differently than most. You only start to get chapters once the entire story is written. And it finally is. I hope everyone enjoys Angel.

These Awkward Moments by reedus_junkie

Daryl Dixon has faced a lot since the world changed and this has resulted in even greater change in his own life. Once a reckless and volatile man, he has now become a respected and productive member of Alexandria. Most importantly, he has become a loved member of a family drawn together by hardship. When a beautiful new doctor arrives in Alexandria, will he be able to leave his past completely behind and trust that he is worthy of love? "I like playing these awkward moments in between that build relationships. I don't ever want to play that character that grabs the girl and has my way with her. That's just not who that character is. If Daryl falls in love with you, he's going to love you for the rest of his life." Norman Reedus Hey Reedus Readers, This is my first attempt at fan fiction, and I hope y'all enjoy reading it as much as I'm enjoying writing it. It is based primarily on the storyline from AMC's The Walking Dead, and uses the characters and relationships from the show. It begins just before the first battle with the Saviors (the end of season 7 of the show), and assumes the storyline follows Robert Kirkman's comic going forward. If you are not a reader of the comic, there may be some Season 8 spoilers here if the show follows the book closely.

Daryl Dixon ➵ Roommate (TWD) by Rasha007

Several bodies are found in the area of a small town. In this town lives Daryl, the killer of all those people. The investigation goes on, the profile is made, and now the police and the FBI look for a specific type, a loner type, ... Daryl's type. He decides to find himself a roommate in an attempt to mislead the police. Let's see how that will turn out for him. AU pre-apocalypse horror story. Obviously very OOC Daryl. The story is so AU you can read it even if you are not a fan of The Walking Dead. Rated M for a good reason, violence, foul language, adult content, it's all there, consider yourself warned.

Athena ~ TWD (Daryl Dixon) by LorelaiSavage

She was the epitome of strength, fighting her way through a new world - one where the dead walked and society ceased to exist. He was a force to be reckoned with, tenacious and unyielding. The hands of fate brought them together, but can they fight alongside one another through the apocalyptic wasteland without losing themselves, or each other?

𝑨 𝑯𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑴𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒅𝒚. (𝒏𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒏) by xo_madness

Trying to survive the apocalypse isn't just about slaying the undead. It's a 𝘸𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘦 lot more complicated than that. Hardly anybody ever considers the barbaric murderers with the Cheshire Cat smiles or the cunning killers lurking around for their next victim to slice open. Or what about the huge range of communities out there, trying their best to thrive in the new world? Surely, not all of them are bad... right? Well, Brooklyn Scotts would be inclined to disagree to that last point made. For the girl has been surviving on her own since it all started, joining and leaving small groups here and there. But when she just so happens to unintentionally seek help on her travels, her whole world is turned upside down and she finds herself breaking all the rules. <><><> Highest Rank(s): » #1 Negan » #1 TheWalkingDead » #1 Rickgrimes <><><> || Negan X OC || || Mature Content || || Please Enjoy || <><><> » started late 2017 » completed summer 2019

With no family and no friends, Hope finds herself just as alone in her new group.

TWD: Survival's Edge ➳ Daryl Dixon (discontinued/rarely posting) by where_is_napkkn

"𝙃𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙨𝙣'𝙩 𝙗𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚. 𝙎𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙝𝙞𝙢 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙬𝙖𝙮." = this is a partial slow burn = The world has fallen apart, leaving only the ruthless, and the desperate to fight for what's left. In a world overrun by the dead, survival isn't just about skill-it's about trust. Amara Hangings and her best friend, Henry have relied on each other to make it this far. Whenever they are captured by a group, they cross paths with a stuck-up, crossbow prick named Daryl Dixon. Henry sees danger in Daryl. Amara sees something else. As they fight through this new world, an uneasy trust begins to form. But in a world where attachments are a risk, letting someone in could be the most dangerous choice of all. For Daryl, survival has always been black and white-until Amara proves that sometimes, the gray areas are worth the risk. ------------ This roughly takes place in the beginning of TWD. I changed the plot a bit to fit in more Amara x Daryl and to make more of a new plot while keeping the basics of the TWD season 1 plot. In this Daryl is late 20's- early 30's. I tried to keep in the character of Daryl Dixon as shown in TWD and what they have said in interviews. Enjoy! I DID NOT MAKE THIS CONCEPT. THIS IS A FANFIC FOR THE WALKING DEAD Hey, sorry this is discontinued. My love for walking dead and just Norman Reedus/Daryl Dixon has burned out. I'm so sorry, I truly enjoyed this and who knows- I might come back for some more chapters but for right now I'm focusing on senior year <3 best ranks: #72 in Dystopian #74 in Gory

The Walking Dead - The Damned by mazzykeen

Surviving was never easy, but with Sid, she had a reason to try. Now he's gone, and Amara is left drowning in solitude, haunted by a hunger she refuses to indulge. Starving herself. Burying her instincts. Fighting against the monster she was made to be: A Vampire. But the world doesn't care if she suffers. The world doesn't care if she's alone. Then, she sees it-the explosion at Terminus, fire licking at the sky. In the chaos, she catches a glimpse of them. Rick Grimes' group. Survivors. Fighters. People. For the first time in years, she follows. Tracks them to Alexandria. She tells herself it's just for supplies. A place to rest. But the truth is, she's desperate. She's tired of surviving. She wants to belong. Now, weeks into life inside the walls, she's struggling to find her place. To them, she's just another survivor. A stranger. But she knows the truth can't stay buried forever. Trust is fragile, and hunger is relentless. And Daryl Dixon? He doesn't trust easily. And there's something about Amara that doesn't sit right with him. But the more he watches her, the more he starts to wonder- Is she the real threat? Or is she just as lost as the rest of them? - Daryl Dixon X Female OC Content Warning: This story is rated Mature and contains graphic depictions of all kinds (including regular Walking-Dead-type violence, death, blood, possible mental health issues, and explicit adult content).

Scars • Daryl Dixon by 0Myraa0

Daryl always put on a mask, an impenetrable facade that made him appear indifferent, as if he didn't care about anything or anyone except for himself. He pushed people away, deliberately keeping them at arm's length, but I knew better. I had seen glimpses of something more beneath that hardened exterior-something real, something human. It wasn't obvious, and it wasn't easy to see, but it was there. I didn't know the full extent of his story, of the pain and the ghosts he carried with him, but I could tell that behind his rough edges, there was a man who cared. The more I watched him, the more I saw that contradiction in him-this mix of isolation and vulnerability. I didn't know him the way I wanted to, but at the same time, there was a strange, inexplicable feeling that I did. It was as if there was something familiar in him, something I recognized, even though we'd never truly shared our pasts. His eyes, especially, told a story all their own-a silent narrative of hurt, survival, and loss. There was a depth there, something raw and honest, as though his life before all of this had shaped him into someone who had learned not to trust, not to hope. I found myself wondering what kind of life he had before the world fell apart-what his family had been like, what his childhood had been shaped by. I could imagine the kind of father he had-a man whose influence left deep scars, someone who might have made Daryl believe that showing emotion or affection was a weakness. It wasn't hard to guess that the lessons Daryl had learned were ones forged in silence and pain, things that had made him pull away from others and close off the softer parts of himself.
