You knew Carl from before all this happened. Your moms were best friends and would sip wine on your back porch while the two of you played pretend in the backyard. The day the world went to shit, you were dismissed from school early and Lori had to take you home. You never thought you'd see Carl again after you slid that mini van door closed...

~ENGLISH ISN'T MY FIRST LANGUAGE so I apologize for anything I may get wrong!
~each chapter is named after a song that fits the vibe ([name] - [artist]) making a little playlist by the end of the book! (the title is a reference to Ribs by Lorde btw [Carl Grimes coded song imo])
~also this work is now cross-posted on AO3 and Quotev, so feel free to check it out there if you'd prefer!

·:*¨༺ ♱ When I'm Small ♱ ༻¨*:· Miette 'Miet' Dixon. Feral child. Hellish pre-teen. 'Dead' teenager. ﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌ She wasn't meant to be born. Miette was an accident, Merle was just mean to have a one night stand and then somehow ended up with a fucking child. Not that he really treated her like his child. More like a cockroach who, no matter how many time you put outside, you'll still find in your sock drawer. Or maybe like a parasite. But instead of blood she leached of, it was love. So naturally when the world fell to shit she was begrudgingly brought along for the ride by her father and his brother. {Carl Grimes x OC} {DarylDixon - father figure!}Complete
The Hearts That Still Beat
We've all thought about it. The apocalypse. Of course we have. Some believe it's inevitable. Some believe it'll never happen. Some believe were doomed and others that the military would stop it before it could actually ever get bad. It's normal to think about the end of the world. Because if the world never ends what the point of it beginning in the first place right? Well I thought about it. A lot. Never thought It would happen in my lifetime though. Then it did. And turns out, the military really couldn't handle it and its not nearly as cool as it seems Sorry if it's not that great. This is my first real story with a plan, a laptop and an actual goal. Also im kinda young so if there's anything wrong please leaves tips so I can improve. thank you so much for reading and I hope you enjoy! :)

EXTINCTION EVENT | CARL GRIMES
Bad feelings are one part of what sucks about this world. Good feelings are the other. Because the good stuff is what can get taken from you, the rug that gets pulled out from under you. A warming feeling that, once it's gone, leaves you out in the cold. ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── first person carl x fem!o.c. slowburn ff season 3 - 8 spanish translation: @iluvvfall portuguese translation: @-scarlletqueen started: September 8, 2021 completed: December 8, 2022 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── #1 in #thewalkingdead - 03/01/2022 #1 in #alexandria - 03/17/2022 #1 in #zombie - 04/02/2022 #1 in #chandlerriggs - 04/07/2022 #1 in #carl - 04/07/2022 + 09/28/23 + 06/28/2023 #1 in #twd - 06/19/2022 + 06/02/2025 #1 in #thewalkingdeadfanfic - 06/24/2022 #1 in #originalcharacter - 06/28/2022 + 08/27/24 #1 in #twdfanfic - 07/12/2022 #1 in #michonne - 08/03/2022 #1 in #walker - 12/21/2022 #1 in #carlgrimesfanfiction - 04/04/2024 #1 in #riggs - 04/18/2024 + 01/14/2026 + 03/23/26 #1 in #grimes - 01/27/2025 #1 in #carlgrimes - 04/17/2025 #1 in #carlgrimesfanfic - 05/14/25 #1 in #zombieapocalypse - 03/23/26 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── disclaimers: contains mature themes such as language, blood, gore, non-descriptive nudity, depression, etc. I do not own AMC's the walking dead, nor do I claim to.

THE WARMTH OF A NIGHT SURVIVED | CARL GRIMES
Alice was not worried of the unknown. She was worried of what she already knew. She was worried of the promises that the new people were making to her-the ones bringing the people of a fallen Woodbury into their own settlement. The girl felt sorry that she'd touch yet another community. She almost felt as though her presence would bound the new place to its own demise-like she was somehow the common denominator in a world full of chaos and destruction. ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── carl grimes x fem!oc season 4 - season 8 third person Spanish translation: @-effypops Russian translation: @VeronikasssBVVlack Portuguese translation: @stellesk published: November 30, 2022 completed: December 8, 2025 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── #1 in #walker - 06/21/23 #1 in #carl - 02/24/25 #1 in #carlgrimes - 03/10/25 #1 in #riggs - 07/18/25 + 10/30/25 #1 in #chandlerriggs - 08/03/25 #1 in #carlgrimesfanfiction - 11/24/25 ───── ⋆✩⋆ ───── disclaimers: contains mature themes such as language, blood, gore, non-descriptive nudity, depression, etc. I do not own AMC's the walking dead, nor do I claim to.
