The end of Season 10 sucked, and Season 11 wasn't any better. This is my way of trying to fix it.

Summary
Sequel to "Stray". Daryl and Carol left it all behind to start a new life together but there's no escaping the past when it shows up on their doorstep. Rated for strong and/or offensive language (Dixon mouth) and some violence. AU, no zombies.

Summary
Adam never really planned to be an actor. But he’s been acting successfully for almost eight years now and there’s nothing else he could imagine doing with his life, nothing else that would give him so much to think about, that would fill his life so completely.
Things are paying off now, too. He's finally been cast in a movie that could set him up for an Oscar nomination. But his new role brings with it more than he expected, challenges he could never have anticipated, a co-star that intrigues and frustrates him, and the revelation that maybe his life isn’t as full as he thought.
