Summary
When the world ended, they already knew how to survive; they’d been doing it their whole lives. It wasn’t a skill; it was a choice.
Merle and Daryl Dixon lived hard, fought harder, and trusted almost no one. Hari and Isha Carter survived by being invisible, planning ahead, speaking little, and never letting their guard down. Together, the four of them built a quiet life in a Georgia garage long before the world collapsed.
Now the dead walk, but they aren’t the only monsters out there. At the quarry, when survivors from Atlanta settle in, the Dixons and the Carters become the outsiders: too quiet, too armed, too unusual to be trusted. As lies spread and alliances fracture, the people who’ve kept everyone alive are branded the threat. They will have to decide what survival really costs, and how much truth they can afford to keep hidden.
When new faces arrive, including the twins’ uncle and cousin, the pressure tightens. The group that became theirs by default is beginning to mistake cruelty for leadership and fear for righteousness. The real danger isn’t the walkers anymore.
It’s the men who call themselves salt of the earth.

Summary
Salt of the Earth — A Canon-Divergent TWD Series
The world ended, but survival started long before the dead began to walk. The Dixon brothers and the Carter twins learned early that safety is an illusion and trust is carved out of blood, silence, and shared scars. As every refuge collapses and every choice cuts deeper, they’ll learn the only shelter that lasts is the one they make together, fragile, fierce, and never guaranteed.
Book One, No Safe Harbor, follows their path from the first sparks of Wildfire to the fall of the CDC, tracing the fractures and found-family bonds that shape the people they become.
Thanks for coming along for the ride.

It's only meant to be temporary. An arrangement, a bargain, a way of ensuring two parties' needs are met.
It soon comes so much more.

Summary
Naruto was tired.
Tired of loneliness. Tired of hunger. Tired of the gang that threatened him and the teachers that didn't believe in him and really just tired in general. He needed a way out of the village. Any way that leads anywhere but here; preferably one that leads to a college where he'd finally have friends and be successful and... well. Life taught him you can't always afford to be picky.
The giant dog that stayed with him each night, providing warmth and protection, seemed to understand. His eyes, the black and the red, followed him anywhere he went. He felt, somehow, less alone.
He gave him hope.- Language:

Summary
“Go.” She said, not quite yelling but suddenly intense as she herded Harry back, away from the pillar and towards the tracks. “Go now, boy, or you’ll miss your train!”
He looked behind his shoulder, there was a train....he hadn’t heard it approach. The doors were open and waiting, and for no good reason at all, he stepped inside. The strange little woman didn’t follow him on, she simply stood there watching him. that same incomprehensible smile on her face.
“Which path will you choose?” She asked again, just before the doors closed, replacing his view of her with his own, pale reflection.
===================
Sirius was gone, and Harry's world was crumbling through his fingers. All he wanted was a little peace, just a moment to himself.
Maybe it was a wish come true.
Maybe it was just the machinations of a strange little witch and her enchanted locket.
When Harry found himself, now fifty years in the past, on his birthday he doesn't question it too much.
He just take the opportunities set before him.

Summary
The fiasco that is Harry's life could be summed up in two words — Avada Kedavra. Those words have haunted him for as long as he can remember, endangering him with their very existence. He'd resigned himself to a life without a soulmate, to pain and sorrow... but then the Blacks happened. Or, one Black in particular.
Whose idea was it to let a Black woman invent time travel, anyway?
