Aw, this makes me so happy. In the sea of grief that is watching The Walking Dead, reading this makes me downright giggly! Cheers

Realist interaction between Daryl and Merle here. I love Carol's line about - I'd rather you call me by my name, but I'd rather you not talk to me at all.

More, more, more! I am a total Daryl/Carol/Merle fan fiction reader, and this little gem NEEDS to be a full blown story! You did a great job keeping all 3 in perfect character! Please reconsider keeping this as a one shot. I'll keep my EYE open.. (sorry..a Carl fan too...lol)

This was really cute. I loved your characterisation of Merle.
I really liked the end and would actually love to read more of this. Great job

Awww! That was adorable! And totally plausible. I could definitely see this scene playing out between the three. Loved the bit where Carol has to hold Daryl back. The ending was so sweet. Perfect!

I know this supposed to be a one-shot, but I would love to read more! The character's personalities are right on the mark. Great story!
