This was sosososoossoosoooooo good! I loved it.

Oh maaaan doing a reread of this after years and it still hits the spot, tysm for writing and sharing! I just got a bit sad after the last AN where you say you end this fic when we’re just getting hope in canon and… oof. Hope you’re doing well lotsa love

copyrighted? lol, that's kind of silly. this is a fanfic, you are literally working in the sandbox of someone else's (previously copyrighted) intellectual property. also, if you are in the USA once you have placed any written work into a 'fixed' format it is automatically copyrighted whether you register that copyright or not. this comment, being a work of original authorship and creativity of my own making is technically copyrighted once it is placed in fixed format should I ever wish to claim rights over these words. but, again, that'd probably be a little silly for me to try and claim. even more so if I was writing a fanfic...

Your story has made my physically react over and over. They way they said they loved each other and as probably one of the best reading moments for my fanfiction history (13 years of reading!) it was so original and so Daryl. So yes, a good story gives you all the feels

Well that was pleasantly sensational!

"So he went for the other thing he knew he was good at; pissing Beth off" is one of my favourite lines in this fic I love it and I will continue to love and reread your Bethyl fic.

Overall a good story. Originally I was put off because this isn't the kinda thing i'd read but it certainly deserves to be rated as one of the highest twd ff.

Definitely some issues. The ending was deeply unsatisfactory. Not in the tone of the end or anything, as I liked the 'lets have a family' end. But the issue is with the climax. Although you killed off Jimmy and Glenn at the end, the whole climax was honestly poor.

As I have noticed throughout the whole fanfic you tend to write in such a way where in combat it is hard to follow what is happening. And while it might make sense in your head it certainly confused me on more than one occasion. Making me carefully reread the sentences and paragraphs. While that may have been my lazy reading, I still noticed it a few times that I had no idea what was going on.

Another issue I noticed was that you tended to make things more perilous than they have any right to be only to let your protagonists get out of it somehow. The number of times the protags were surrounded by herds and survived is honestly beyond belief. So a lack of realism if anything.

And your tendencies to have none of the cast dies lowered the stakes a lot in a story where death should be always present. Especially in the ending no matter what bullshit they pulled in the prison, there is no way that Rick's group would ever survive getting double-crossed by Woodbury and another well-armed malicious group. So I certainly was unsatisfied with the ending, it read poorly and had no idea what was happening, and in the end, the Governor had died somehow and the other antagonist acted like some maniac and got killed by the convenient timing of Daryl.

I would have preferred you to develop further on the intelligent walkers more and used them at the end where they so easily could have been used. But I guess you wanted to have another Deth character moment towards the end, so whatever I guess.

Overall it was good though, would be better if you rewrote at some point and tightened it up. Editing and fleshing out several areas that could have done with more development, but overall i enjoyed it.

Kinda. Bur kinda not. I rate a story by whether they can elicit a response from me. Like, get me excited get me speaking to myself etc. Yours has accomplished that much so... Kinda.

"I'm going to fuck you against this tree."... Man this made me laugh so hard.

Oh the irony... The ship was sailing and then it sank and fell to the bottom of the ocean...

The reason for the walkers being intelligent at the start of the series is because frank Darabont was in charge of directing and had his own vision and plans for the future. I'm sure he would've built on it in the future and developed the walkers somewhat. But without the genius of Darabont, they were left to a litany of random directors and a lack of any real creative direction.

Tomato sauce and ketchup are used interchangeably in the UK. I imagine it's the same in Australia the cultures are pretty similar after all.

I wasn't going to comment as this is so old and I know the fic is dead but... Man, the scene between Beth and Daryl after Dales funeral is weird af.

I’ve just read this story for the first time and it was wonderful. Thank you for writing such a fantastic fix x

I’m rereading this story and this scene has always stuck out in my mind as one of the most romantic moments. Thank you for such a beautiful story
