My Brain on Bethyl - a master fic list
I've assembled a master list of my TWD fanfiction. Because each story is written to fit into my own headcanon, I've listed them in order from season two to current. If read in this order they form a more, or less, continuous narrative. It's all here under the cut, with links to the stories.

Summary: The events of "Still" did not take place the day after the prison fell. Or even two days after. Daryl and Beth were on the road for some time together, perhaps weeks, before “Still”. Long enough for Beth to become thoroughly tired of a tight lipped, emotionally closed Daryl Dixon. Time enough for her to know she had to take matters into her own hands.

And when his heart is heaviest, he remembers, and when despair threatens, he reads.
