Summary
Whatever happened between Carl and Negan was supposed to be a one-time thing, a favor for a favor. “I get something, you get something,” the man had said to him, eyes dark and enticing. But just when Carl’s life as a Savior in Sanctuary is finally starting to get back to normal, Negan makes him an intriguing proposition.
Or, during the scorching heatwave of the summer, Carl and Negan discover exactly how obsessed they are with each other.
**
This is part of an AU series where Rick never found his family and Carl was raised by Shane, who made them both join the Saviors after the line-up in the clearing. Reading parts 1 and 2 first is recommended.

Summary
Negan embodied the missing puzzle piece of Carl’s high school life; kindness, approachability, companionship, and the wisdom of someone who wanted the best for Carl. He was a genuine friend; uncensored, honest, and he could be a royal pain in the ass, but Carl needed him as much as he needed oxygen.
After the apocalypse, Carl resigned to never seeing Negan again. The survival part of his brain all but erased the Negan part. He barely thought about him.
That is, until that one fateful day kneeling in the clearing lit up by the blinding beams of enemy trucks, awaiting his fate.
They were a great team before; how will they face new threats together after three years apart?

Summary
“You weren’t there,” he says, voice barely more than a breath and scratchy as hell - it hurts to speak, every word sending another rough spike of pain splintering out through him and it’s a guess, a stab in the dark at who’s in the chair next to his bed –
OR: Negan wakes up with his throat bandaged. Carl is there.

Summary
Shane has been a lot of things throughout Carl’s life. In the old world, he was his godfather and his uncle and his best friend. When the dead started rising, he became his protector, his step-dad, the only thing standing between the Grimes family and the things that wanted to destroy them. Then, when his mother died, Shane became his drill sergeant, his commanding officer, the one person whose orders Carl had to follow without question, to ensure his sister’s survival.
Now, with Shane gone, it feels like Carl is untethered, floating adrift in a dark sea with nothing left to guide him.
Nothing but Negan.

Summary
Ron smiled at him.
His smile was warm as the sun, delicate as the petals he’d ripped apart. His dimples showed. His nose scrunched up, and he always smiled with all of his teeth. Which were so white they could blind you, but the most crooked Carl had ever seen a set of teeth.
His hair was falling in front of his face, and he tucked part of it behind his ear, leaving a small smudge of red paint on his nose and cheek. It covered up a couple of his freckles.
Carl was so caught up in tracing out Ron’s face in his mind that he almost missed the scream.

Summary
“Don’t fucking lie to me Dad.”
Rick shakes his head. He was acting as though Judith questioning the safety of her people was utterly ridiculous. It made her blood boil. “Carl wouldn’t hurt us. You don’t remember. You don’t know him, honey–“
“Neither do you, Dad,” Judith snaps, unable to control herself. “What’s wrong with you? When did you become this naïve, huh? You’re supposed to protect us!” She was yelling now and felt her chest tighten with each word she said, knowing that this was wrong. That she shouldn’t speak to her father this way.
She couldn’t stop. “You don’t know Carl anymore. None of us do. Just look at him! He’s Negan’s bitch now. Just like Maggie, Ezekiel and you.”
———
What if Negan won the war against the communities? What if he decided to exercise his power by forcing Rick to make an impossible choice that would separate the Grimes family and cause irreparable damage?

Summary
Things could have gone differently. Things could have been better. Carl watched people he loved beat to death, or so he thought, while the man running things staked his claim. On Carl’s life.
It’s been three years of being a bitch for Joe. Barking when told to speak and being a good house wife wherever they landed. Survival is what it is. But even starting his young adulthood, the boy has no way to run; not with the severe limp long ago imposed.
Things could have gone differently. In Virginia, the claimers pick a fight with the wrong people. However, when the day of reckoning comes? Carl is the one lifted from the bottom. Because those eyes are far too familiar. And the leader of the Saviors thinks, just maybe, having such a little thing at his side might solve the warring that’s threatening his peace.

Summary
He looked over the rest of Carl. Every bit of him seemed to be wrong.
Wrong, like his shirt was ripped. Wrong, like his jeans were on wonky. Wrong, like his hair was messed up. Wrong, like he was crying.
Carl wasn’t ever much of a crier.
Never had been, but he was now, and Negan hated it.

Negan hasn't seen Carl for 8 years, but he gets a call from the kid's school, so he drives four hours, chain-smokes, and then surprise adopts him. -

Summary
"What do we have here? Shit, I was about to turn in for the night on New Years Eve.”
Carls life was perfect, until it wasn't. With his dad in a coma and his mom turning to drinking to deal with her never-ending mid-life crisis and having a new baby, he's forced to struggle through his senior year while balancing a job at the local bar with his best friend Enid and trying to get into college. Until he pisses off two men who his dad had previously put behind bars, which just leads to him catching the eye of the towns newest resident. Carl falls into a Negan rabbit hole when he meets his dying wife at the hospital while visiting Rick.
Or- Lucille is half dead and yet she's still smarter than the two of these morons put together.
