Still in Love With Judas, Baby by MitchTheHystericalQueen
Fandoms: The Walking Dead (TV)
29 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
Heavily inspired by Norman Reedus in the ‘Judas’ Lady Gaga music video. Seriously if you haven’t seen it do yourself a favour and watch it.
Daryl is reeling from the death of Denise. Rosita is trying to avoid someone. Somehow they collide and then 12k of porn ensues.
Author has played with timelines just slightly. Use your imagination here folks.

"Maybe this is where you get part of what you want and you learn to be joyful at the prospect of running the race your whole life."
It is time for my once-per-decade character study of Hawkeye Pierce, featuring (as usual) his mother and (for the first time) fuzzy concepts of the afterlife.

Summary
Aaron and Gabriel find a way to while away the hours in a safe house.
--
“There’s so much here,” Gabriel said, stepping back, his hip brushing against a stack of decorated bowls on the desk, the metal scraping against the polished wood, threatening to overbalance and clatter to the floor.
“I thought you’d like it.” Aaron’s words were punctuated with a light grunt as he lowered himself to the floor, sitting with his back to the wall beside the door.
“There are still several hours left before sunset,” Gabriel pointed out. “I’m sure you don’t want to spend it all watching me sift through this inventory of things we’ll leave behind.”
“I happen to like watching you,” Aaron said. stretching his legs out in front of him. His eyes were on Gabriel, though his fingers were carefully unclasping the buckles on his prosthesis until he could slide it away, setting it down on the floor beside him, his fingers moving to massage at the reddened flesh where the straps bit too tightly into his skin. “It’s not a bad way to spend an afternoon. But if you had something else in mind…”
