How Did You Get Here (Episodic Richonne Fic)
I hope you are well and staying hydrated in these times. Your writing is such a bright spot, thank you for stepping into writing to feel in the off screen moments. Your talent makes it so easy to visualize those special untold moments. Seriously, thank you for broadening this beautiful love story and providing a wondrous escape to more joy.
Thank you! 🙏🏽 I was feeling so down and out today, and then I received this message. 🥲 Thank you so much for such encouraging words. The timing of this was more perfect than I can convey, and I’m really grateful to hear you enjoyed my writing. Super appreciate you reading, and I hope you’re well too! 💗
Any thoughts about what Andrea told Michonne about Rick and the others in her group? And why do you think once she met them she was hesitant to share that she knew Andrea before it was ultimately revealed? Sorry if you already answered this and I missed it. Always curious about your perspective.
Thanks for asking my perspective! I was under the impression that when Michonne first came to the prison, she didn’t know they were Andrea’s former group. I thought maybe when Merle reveals to everyone that Michonne knows Andrea, that’s the same moment when Michonne learns they know Andrea too.
At first, I was thinking Andrea probably didn’t say anything too detailed about Rick and the group while she and Michonne traveled together, especially with Michonne not being too detailed with Andrea about her past. But then, as I thought about it more, I was like, actually, with the way Andrea divulged very personal info about Rick to the Governor, I could also see a scenario where Andrea maybe tells Michonne that she was with a group run by a cop and his cop buddy, and saying how they were good people in her eyes even despite their personal drama with the Lori situation.
When do you think michonne told rick about Andre?
I thought about this question a lot while writing my fic about Richonne’s pre-canon moments I wanted to cover, because I felt strongly that Michonne would tell Rick about her son at some point before they became a couple. And as I was writing, the most natural time when I saw her telling Rick about Andre was shortly after Carl was shot in the eye in NWO.
I feel like in season 4, she might’ve kept it to just telling Carl about Andre. And then in season 5, there’s so much going on and so many new territories, and Rick’s off the deep end a bit in his Savage Rick era, so I think she might not have had the space to tell him about her son yet. But after Carl gets shot, and she reflects on how close she came to losing another son and how grateful she is that Carl made it through that night, I could see that getting Michonne to open up with Rick about Andre. I wrote my take on how the Andre conversation could go between them in this chapter. 😊
Do you think there will be anything to come about Rick's story with his father that happened when he was 7 years old which is the same age RJ is now? Are they going for something with that?
I always found it interesting that Rick had a major event with his dad that occurred when he was the same age as RJ. I wasn’t of the mindset that there’s something more to come from that down the line, but I do think within TOWL it was an intentional parallel between Rick and RJ. Because 7-year-old RJ also has a major father-related event shape him when he meets Rick at the end of the season. The story Rick told in the premiere is one where he witnessed just how much his dad would do to take care of his family. And I think it set up nicely how RJ will grow up to also recall this year of his life as one where he learned just how much his dad did and would do to protect their family, too.
Omg this is so random, but all I want to say is I’m in such desperate need to see a Richonne edit to the song babylove by Orit.
Oh I hadn’t heard that song before but I looked it up just now, and I really like the vibe. I can picture a Richonne edit pairing with that song, especially focused on certain parts of their journey like the first four episodes of TOWL.
Thank you for your dedication and love for our Beloved Richonne! I have just finished reading chapter 2 of How Did You Get Here? I was reminded how Carl was giving so much attitude to Michonne. He was the one who initially wanted to save her, so why all of a sudden did he have a major attitude where she was concerned?
Thanks so much! 💗 This question really made me think cuz it's true there was that switch in his attitude. I feel like when Michonne was standing in between walkers at the prison fence, it looked like that could quickly turn into a life-threatening situation for her, and Carl didn't want to stand by and just let someone potentially die. But then once she's let inside, and especially when she isn't quick to divulge much about herself, I think Carl started to feel more skeptical and guarded as he was reminded that Michonne is a stranger and strangers can wreak havoc or be untrustworthy, like the prisoner Andrew had just recently been.
Plus, I always note that in Clear, Carl seems peeved to learn from Rick that Michonne left them briefly while they were at Woodbury. So I think his attitude also stemmed from wondering if Michonne is really with them and on their side. That's why the events of the Clear episode are so perfect, because Michonne organically showed him who she is and where she stands. And I love that after just one outing with her, Carl could then sense and express that Michonne was one of them. 🥰

Chapter 16 - Anything For You
Final chapter. 🎉 Something I'd most wonder about was what Rick and Michonne's first extended moment to themselves was like after taking their relationship to the next level. They had been surrounded by people pretty much as soon as they were abruptly woken up in 6.11. But when they did finally have a substantial moment to talk privately...what'd they say? I have a feeling some very special words were exchanged. 😊 @cool-miss-sparkles, thanks for asking about this moment! 💕 Here's my story style take on Rick and Michonne's first fully private conversation after becoming canon.
Also, I want to say thank you to each and every one of you who read these chapters. Thank you for supporting my first collection of stories with kind comments, reviews, and messages. Despite having over 700 posts reveling in Richonne over the years, I was still nervous to share my own writing about them with a fic. But the encouragement was really motivating, and I sincerely appreciate it. Thanks for joining me on this journey through Richonne's potential offscreen pre-canon moments, and I hope you've enjoyed the chapters!

and when we say Rick's captivated by Michonne, it's been that way...
Hi there! Love your writing!
At what point do you think Rick started referring to Michonne or thinking of her as his wife? And had Rick not been taken by the CRM, do you think they would have married before RJ was born? Do you think their vows would be similar to what they said to eachother when Rick proposed in TOWL? Thanks!
Hi! Thank you😊 I love these questions. I feel like Rick started thinking of Michonne as his wife pretty early in the relationship. For some reason, it's hard for me to picture them referring to each other as girlfriend and boyfriend. Like, it really feels like they went from pre-canon partners to married after 6.10 lol. I don't think he would've started calling her his wife immediately because he'd want to formally ask her to marry him. But I think he thought of her as his wife even as early as season 6. Like when Rick is distraught finding that the Saviors put Michonne's hair on that walker, I can definitely see him feeling like "they have my wife."
There seems to have only been about a month or two between when Rick and Michonne get together in 6.10 and when they go on that honeymoon run in 7.12. I think, for sure, after Say Yes and his dinner proposal, Rick's title for Michonne is 'wife.' That's part of why it's crazy TWD didn't just have a clear-cut proposal/ring exchange moment for Rick and Michonne, because I think they actively viewed their status as husband and wife for a good while.
I definitely think Rick and Michonne would have married before RJ was born. I feel like they would've gotten married before they even knew she was pregnant. Whenever I picture what their wedding would look like had Rick not been taken, I never picture that Michonne would be visibly showing at that time. I do think their vows would be very similar to the TOWL proposal. I can totally see Rick still professing that Michonne is the only thing that puts the broken world back together and that he's hers until his last breath. And I can see Michonne still saying it could only ever have been him for her, and she's his. I just think they'd say that and more in a vows setting. Richonne's wedding vows would be something I'd love to hear because they both always express how they feel about each other so beautifully.

Chapter 15 - In The Air
I had to close out these last 2 chapters with a little post-canon Richonne because I have always wanted insight into everything Rick and Michonne were feeling, thinking, and doing in the first 24-48 hours of taking their relationship to the next level.
So these chapters take place during the events of 6.11 and 6.12...but Rick and Michonne's minds keep wandering back to those moments we did and didn't see at the end of their canon episode. And I have a feeling they'd also have been very eager to pick up where they left off before Jesus interrupted them. 😋

Chapter 11 - Home Sweet Home
I love imagining that Rick and Michonne got to spend a lot more time together during Carl's recovery. And in writing about each week of the S6 two-month time jump, it got me thinking about a certain question Deanna posed to Michonne, and a certain ring that was no longer worn by Rick.
(Also, y'all, with me being new to fanfiction.net, it has been a learning experience with this platform. 😅 I had to Google how to comment under reviews because I could not figure it out lol. Then I saw that there apparently isn't an option to comment under reviews. But I still wanted to say thank you so much for reading and reviewing! I truly do appreciate it. 💗)

Chapter 10 - Not A Secret
Now, if I could have watched any off-screen Richonne moments play out on the show, it would be that Season 6 time jump between No Way Out and Richonne's canon ep, The Next World. This is the time jump I've been most eager to explore because, clearly, whatever went on between Rick and Michonne during this time got them to a point where they could no longer resist their feelings for each other in 6.10. So for the next few chapters, I aimed to write out certain situations that could have gone down each week during those two months to bring Richonne to their canon episode. 😊

Chapter 9 - Bet On Us
I feel like Rick and Michonne definitely had a moment at Deanna's party. And I've always wanted to see how they interacted and reacted to each other during that night. As well as the way others at the gathering observe them, too. I wrote some ideas about this night in the past, but wanted to flesh it out some more. So this chapter is my take on what went on offscreen during that party. 😊

Hi, I’m not sure if you’ve addressed this before but I always enjoy reading your posts.
Do you think Michonne and Daryl shared with each other that they believed Rick was still alive? And that they were still vocal about that belief until Michonne left to go find him? Michonne and Daryl have a beautiful friendship, but I always felt that they accepted Rick was gone to help each other find peace. Even when they both obviously still had faith he was out there. The way Judith reacted to Michonne finding Rick’s stuff, it seemed like they had open communication about believing he was still alive. And Daryl told his ex/whatever-she-was about losing Rick and not knowing his fate. So they were talking about it, but maybe not to each other? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
I do love that the people that Rick made his family with never gave up on him. A stark contrast to how he started out the apocalypse!!
Thank you! 💖 Yeah, I think Michonne and Daryl shared that they believe Rick is still alive, especially in those months they were searching for him together. I don’t think either felt they were just looking for a body. And especially when they’d searched far and wide and still hadn’t found Rick, I think that made them both feel like they weren’t finding him yet because he was alive out there somewhere and not just because there was nothing left of him to find.
I do think at some point around RJ’s birth, when Michonne had to stop looking for Rick, she and Daryl stopped talking about Rick being alive, even though they still believed he was. As time went on, they probably felt that constantly ruminating together on Rick being alive would only make it harder to move forward. So I agree they had to sit in that in-between space of believing he’s alive all this time, while accepting that he’s still gone in some capacity.
I think Michonne and Judith had talked about the possibility of Rick being alive before, too. I could see that at first, Michonne presents the story in a way that tries to give her kids some semblance of closure by saying that there is a possibility Rick is now in heaven. But then, when Judith says she feels like he’s still alive, Michonne admits that she believes he still could be too, and they share that hope together, even if they don’t converse about it all the time. And like you said, I love how full circle it is that even despite being away for a much longer time than when he was in his coma, Rick now got to see that his closest family never forgot him or gave up on him. 😊
