My zombie fic(s)

[likealeafonthewind]

I'm so bad at managing multiple accounts, hah, but here are my zombie fics. The first part of the first fic (i.e., the only one I had intended to write at all until it multiplied like zombies are wont to do) was written in just a couple of hours on the morning after Halloween. It was seriously the fastest I had ever written and posted anything.

I wonder if you ever see the sun (3639 words) by anecdotalist Chapters: 2/2 Fandom: One Direction (Band) Rating: General Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Zayn Malik/Liam Payne Characters: Zayn Malik, Liam Payne Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Modern Setting, zombie!Zayn, firefighter!Liam, kind of major character death except not really, because it happened before the story and it's how Zayn became a zombie, but it's all good now, this is just filled with silliness, and it's unbeta'd just to warn you Series: Part 1 of Zombie Take-Over Summary: "Nice costume, mate, but you're a bit late for Halloween, aren't you?" The zombie - man - scowled and lifted a bag and shook it; Liam could hear the rattle of presumably a full bag of candy. "Already got tons here, don't I? You knock on people's doors and all they want to do is shove sugary sweets at you and tell you to go away. I need your help." "Oh, okay. Did your car break down? You need to call for a lift or something?" But as he peered around the other man, Liam could see that the street was empty. "No. I wish it was that simple. I woke up in the graveyard last night. I think I'm a zombie." ----------------- Or, Liam wakes up the morning after Halloween to find a zombie knocking on his door. Just a cute little ficlet. Update 12/4/2014: Added a new chapter! I'm working on a companion piece which will be posted separately but at this point, I don't anticipate adding any more to this one so I'm calling it completed. Update 1/17/2015: Now part of a series! Check out the companion fic/sequel - The Life and Times of Zayn the Zombie.

Then I decided to write a companion piece telling Zayn's pov of the events. Only it exploded and became a whole zombie society fic. OOPS.

The Life and Times of Zayn the Zombie (12965 words) by anecdotalist Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: One Direction (Band) Rating: Mature Warnings: Major Character Death Relationships: Zayn Malik/Liam Payne Characters: Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Lottie Tomlinson, Jay Tomlinson Additional Tags: Implied Niall Horan/Harry Styles, zombie!Zayn, firefighter!Liam, the others are a surprise, character death is because zayn dies and becomes a zombie, sorry to spoil that for you, Unbeta'd Series: Part 2 of Zombie Take-Over Summary: zaynthezombie: hey, it's zayn zaynthezombie: the zombie liamfightsfires: believe it or not, ur name makes that pretty clear Or, In which Zayn dies and wakes up a zombie and this is his (after)life. This started out as a little companion fic to I wonder if you ever see the sun inspired by that little exchange but grew to a small monstrosity. It would probably help if you had read the first fic but not necessary, I don't think. (The major character death warning is for Zayn becoming a zombie, which for the purpose of this story isn't really death but I figured I'd be safe and tag the warning anyway.)

I've also gone from staying far far away from AO3 in fear of seeing negative comments on my fics to obsessively checking AO3 to see if anyone's reading my fics and giving it kudos. Is that how it is for all new authors or is this just me???
