Serena Otto Headcanons Pt.1
Tumblr media
Very sarcastic and stubborn. Matches Troy's energy well. Likes to push people's buttons. She gets a sense of their boundaries this way. They balance one another out, when Troy needs a calming presence, that's Serena. When Serena rushes into danger Troy makes sure she stays alive. They both go fucking insane when they need to make a point.
Serena can honestly be just as wild and crazy as Troy.
Loves Troy unconditionally and with all she is and has. He is her soulmate.
Starts celebrating Troy's birthdays by baking him a cake when she can, giving him a present she found on a run or giving him a break from being a leader for the day and going out on a run just the two of them.
For Serena's birthday, she always asks Troy to dance with her, like on their wedding day.
Eventually learns everything about Troy's past and what he went through.
Serena is always by Troy's side and helps him with running the Militia and their community.
Always makes sure Troy gets enough sleep and eats enough.
Her favorite times are quiet nights with Troy in their home where they read a book and just snuggle on their bed.
When they fight everyone takes cover. But they always forgive and move on. Fighting is part of how they communicate.
Very very impulsive. She punches people quite a bit, not afraid to piss people off and fight them.
Can stand toe to toe with Troy and his temper, she doesn't back down when he yells. It's part of the reason why they work.
Serena learns pretty quickly in her relationship with Troy that she needs to be a grounding presence for him, so she does that. She knows when to control her impulsiveness and just be there for Troy.
Has this weird thing where she falls off the bed in her sleep. She will just roll off the side and onto the floor. She's gotten bloody noses from it before. Troy has to either pad the floor with pillows (when he gets up before Serena) or he shoves the bed up against one wall and sleeps with Serena between him and the wall.
If anyone comments on Troy’s scar, especially negatively or even looks at the scar in the wrong way, or for too long, Serena is swinging for them.
Serena understands Troy on a different level than most. She was abused for a while in her childhood by her birthfather before her mother took her and her little sister and left.
Her main, and go-to weapon is a machete that Troy gave her.
Knows how to fight, and use most general weapons. Her parents were in the military.
Serena was training to be a trauma surgeon before the world ended.
Serena is smart, so she knows when to stay quiet, so when she mouths off to someone and almost gets shot, she made that choice. She knows what she’s doing. Her impulse control is just shit.
At the ranch she mouthed off to a Militia member who was being rude to her and she almost got punched until Troy intervened. {Verse dependent} 
Serena has been punched by Jeremiah when calling him out on his shit. She punched him back. {Verse dependent}

Back from the Dead {𝒮𝑒𝓇𝑒𝓃𝒶}
AU Verse
@butibite
It had been two years since Serena had seen her family. After trying to help people at an abandoned mall and getting attacked, Serena had nearly died, she had been shot in the torso and barely made it out alive. She had tried to get back to Troy, back to Tracy, but her radio was dead and she was bleeding too heavily to make any real progress in getting anywhere. She had tried walking away from the mall but in her decision had gone in the wrong direction of their camp and passed out from blood loss. The next time she woke up, she was being treated for the wound in the back of an odd van. A few people had come across her before she could die and had chosen to help her. Her wound was infected and Serena was in and out of consciousness for several days until she finally came to. Although by that point she was several states away from Troy and their daughter, and in no shape to travel, and without a long-distance radio she couldn't get back in touch with them. Serena had been looking for her family for two years now, and she now had found them for the first time in all those years. After picking up a radio transmitter, and checking the stations, she came across a voice she recognized on the radio, Troy. Although the radio couldn't transmit back to him, but she had an idea of the location and left for it as soon as she could.
Now Serena had found them, found her husband, her child, her group in the middle of what she could only be described as an all-out war against Troy and Madison.
Madison fucking Clark. Serena hated her with a passion, despite never actually meeting the woman. But Troy had told her what Madison had done to him, at the ranch and at the Dam. Serena had seen the aftermath of Madison's violence on Troy when she saved him from the Dam years ago. Serena had caught on to the fact that her husband was fighting Madison Clark through the radio chatter. After what Madison had done to Troy on the ranch with her manipulation and turning everyone against him, and then at the Dam. Serena wanted to see her on the ground.
For the moment Serena kept herself hidden, she didn't know the extent of the mess Troy was in and she didn't want to make things worse. She had caught up to the group on the side of a lake, with people there from Madison's group and Troy's, with a scattered heard. Serena watched from the cover of the tree line as Madison approached Troy. Something didn't feel right.
Madison was standing close to Troy, holding his arm in one of her hands, while holding Alicia's makeshift arm in her other. Serena watched, raising her gun to train at the Clark. Then she saw it, the change in Madison's demeanor, her expression, and how she tried to stab Troy with Alicia's arm. However, before she could actually plunge the sharp metal into Troy's torso her hand holding the arm was shot.
Madison let out a soft cry as she was shot in the hand, dropping the metal arm she had planned to kill Troy with and she stumbled back in pain, "What the hell?!" She exclaimed looking around in confusion.
"Have every one of your people put their weapons down, and step away from him." Serena said through the walkie, still hiding in the trees, "or the next bullet goes in your head."
Madison looked around in confusion and looked at Troy before picking up her walkie, "who the hell are you?" She demanded, although was quickly shot in the arm.
"I'm not someone you want to mess with," Serena said putting her walkie back in her belt before stepping out of the treeline and walking over to the group, she could see Troy out of the side of her vision. She wanted to run to him, to hug him and be held by him again, but right she couldn't. Instead, Serena kept her eyes and gun trained on Madison. Although she looked around at the group, the people who were apparently on Madison's side.
"I said put your weapons down or I kill her!" Serena snapped staring at them before looking back at Madison. The blonde woman was holding her arm, flinching in pain from the bullets, and stared at the woman who had walked out of the treeline in confusion and anger.
"Who the hell are you?!" Madison demanded again.

i neeeed more nsfw troy headcanons pls 🙏🏼
Tumblr media
anon i love you. I saw this and ended up stimming so hard i had to take deep breaths to calm myself down enough to write
He loves squeezing and grabbing at your body whenever he can, he uses it like an anchor when he's fucking deep inside of you
When he's deep in the moment (especially between your legs) his accent is much thicker and will use more southern sounding nicknames like sugar and sweet pea
Missionary is not his style, it might be nice as you two are getting to know each others bodies but it doesn't last long
His favorite position is stuffing his mouth full of you sitting with you on his lap while you ride the fuck out of him
Oral is just... with this man you're going to be pulling his hair for hours he loves listening to your noises as you suffocate him making him take you more and more until you're a whimpering overstimulated mess
Is more of a stomach and thigh guy than an ass or boob/pec guy
Don't get me wrong he's all over a nice ass, but prefers the softness of a pudgy belly and thick thighs
He's not the best at wearing a condom, obviously he tries really hard, but when he's in the moment you better start speaking up or else he's going in raw and whimpering about how good you feel squeezing around him
Talks a lot during sex
Always calling you nicknames
Always asking for more, it doesn't matter what it is he wants more
Always asking how your day was to try and hear your voice break
He may talk a lot during it, but the noises he makes? Oh this man never shuts up
mommy kink (daddy kink after his dad dies :()
won't even ask will simply let it slip during the heat of the moment
let him call you mommy/daddy!!
Taking a shower? That's so funny because he was just about to do the same thing. Oh well i guess you have to shower together now
Just waking up and feeling icky and wanna brush your teeth? Nope sorry Troy is in between your legs and wont leave until you're minutes away from being late for work
Oh honey you got stuck somewhere and need Troy's help getting unstuck? Lets hope you're in a comfortable position because you're not leaving that spot for a long time

NOT SO CHALLENGING (Closed Starter)
Tumblr media
When he first wakes up, two eyes, no daughter he thinks he might be in hell, because he's in his bedroom. But not just any bedroom, the bedroom of his mother's house. The house he sold, the house that's gone, burned and vanished in a ruined world. So why here? And then he hears the sound of the TV, his mother's cackle at some joke and his blood feels iced. He's in Hell. He looks around again, at the neat room, at the sunny calm day outside. It's not surprising, he's committed his sins. So he stands, accepting his fate, and reenters a world he'd thought he forgot. She ignored him when he slips out into the main living space to the refrigerator. He gets a bottle of water, stares at the luxury and drinks the whole thing. Silver linings. Serena always said silver linings. He refamiliarizes himself with his old existence, accepts this will be what it is forever, and then he looks out into his front yard. And finds his wife laying in the grass.

Thoughts on Troy Otto, some Headcanons:
After the initial blow to the head Troy suffers some memory loss which comes back in short flashbacks, resulting in a very mixup up version of events from Broke Jaw.
I also HC that Troy has a personality disorder as as result of his childhood trauma and and such subconsciously changes his behaviour to match people around him he cares about and does not want to be rejected by. When he meets Serena he tries to be a “better man” to earn her love, even accepting her desire to adopt Alicia’s ideology to help people - until it gets her killed and he spirals in a similar way to his psychosis caused by his be old from the ranch in season 3.
Him leading the dead to the ranch in season 3 was definitely the result of a breakdown/psychotic break caused by all his trauma, exhaustion and feelings of abandonment and loss.
Late night conversations with Walker-Serena, Russell is very concerned when he insists on taking baby Tracy to visit her mother.
Russell is secretly in love with Troy - don’t ask why, just a vibe I got 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ok so. There's several questions in here, I'll try to address them all @marrecarandgi
Maybe let's do the "Can this man ever move on and find a new relationship after he and Tracy ride into sunset" first (which is also fully my HC, he didn't die, Tracy just had guilt-fueled nightmares that seemed so real she really believes she shot her walker!dad).
Anyway, yes, he was pretty hung up on his wife, it seems.
(Though honestly, parking her in this swamp type thing was weird to me? Like, wouldn't he want her closer by? It's almost like they don't really get Troy's character - like they present us a distorted version of him, we recognize enough of Troy in him to say 'it's him' but then there's just... something that isn't right)
Ok, lets ignore the things that don't quite fit and go with, he was super hung up on her. Though maybe not only her but also the way he lost her and how he put all of that on alicia and madison. so it seems to get closure he needed to get his revenge
(though that's again not super fitting with what they show us in ep11 - the first heart to heart he has with madison where she is about to kill him with her hammer. he says "you want her people to believe the same thing she did - when this is exactly what got her killed" warns her, really. and the way he looks at her, the way his voice sounds... it's almost like he cares. but then, why would he, if he hates her so much. It's almost like he's trying to connect to her, but then, why would he. If he hates her so much. Or maybe he wants her to stop believing in this thing that killed his wife. If so, then why save her in the end when he saw she didn't believe? It just doesn't fit together. Individually those things are fine but taken together it's very headscratchy. Sorry, I said I'll stay away from these things that don't quite fit but guess I can't stop myself ^^0)
Ok so, again ignoring all that and going with the 'he needed revenge/her killing Madison to move on... I think the fact that Madison ended zombie!serena and the fact that he buried her helped him a lot in the 'moving on from her'.
If we take this bullshit on face value with him regretting not letting alicia's idea die with serena, then even getting to *live it* (once he gets Tracy back from madison) may help him, too. A way to honor his wife and think on her but not with so much bitterness and ... well he clung to her in a way, right. Clung to revenge so he could cling to her maybe. Or the other way around. And if that is now broken (again taken the bullshit he said before he died at face value) he'll have a much easier time moving on now.
Now what happens between him and madison and alicia once they meet up - I have no idea. It could be that by this time Madison already started to regret killing him. I mean she's still not happy to see him - given that she expects him to still want to kill her. So their places could be somewhat switched now, mirroring the end of ep11. Her now full of regret and hm compassion even towards him and him... well that's the question isn't it? I think, if we go the route of 'what he said at the end of ep11 is the truth' then he should let her live. He's not gonna tell her this of course from the beginning since he doesn't trust her and still thinks she thinks like at the end of ep11 (no second chances, troy is irredeemable). So it'll be a bit of a dance I guess, with both of them misinterpreting the other's actions. But not for long bc once Tracy sees her dad no one can stop her from going to him. And that's all he wants, his daughter back. And they should leave madison and alicia and go out on their own.
Now if you'd rather not believe he had a change of heart end of ep 11 (which I get haha it kinda came out of nowhere), he's still gonna want revenge. And I think he will, once he finds them. He won't be convulted about it either, I don't think so. Now that he doesn't have his zombie!wife anymore. Now that he even lost his kid, I think he's gonna be methodical. Wouldn't mind him just creeping into their camp and shooting them point blank. Sure, they wont 'rot on their feet' but I think the need for them to be dead may at this point be greater than anything else. Especially since they have tracy. I think them having tracy is a pretty strong motivator for him to end things quickly and get her away from there. Tracy, who probably has her head screwed with a lot (I mean her going to madison after she believes she killed her dad is.. uh a choice and speaks not well of the kid's mental health... so that could lead to some interesting tension between them though I think they'd work through it soon enough. it's her *dad* after all). And yes once he's got her back and the other two lie dead, his wife buried, I think he *can* move on from her.
Probably entering into a new relationship won't be easy though (in either case, both the 'he took revenge' and the 'he just wanted his daughter back'), he feels like he wants to be single for a while now haha, which. Understandable. He was first married to his wife and then to the idea of revenge. And they say getting out of a relationship takes half the time the relationship lasted so uhm. Make of that what you will ;)
Maybe if he meets up with someone he knows it's easier for him to form a relationship than if it's someone completely new... just an idea though (maybe bc then it doesn't remind him so much of serena...?).
Also in my somewhat improbable HC (of course I have several contradicting HCs - as one does...) which I haven't quite let go off even though it turned out not to have any canon support (though also not really something that contradicts it so uhh (except for the part where I thought serena seems like a cutie and I don't want her to be a bad guy), I imagine serena as abusive towards troy.
Again no textual support of this - that whole idea was born out of the fear that they'd made troy be actually the one responsible for his wife's death (thank GOD that fear was unfounded haha). But yeah I was really anxious about this once it was revealed that alicia's idea killed tracy's mom but we had no further inforomation on it. So this fear, and the fact that he went 'it's not pretty to look at, I know' about his eye had me thinking that it could be possible. That sentence 'it's not pretty to look at, I know' gave me pause since... it doesn't sound like Troy to be concerned with how he looks. That was never him (yes even though he's well dressed now :P). So I thought, that almost sounds like he's quoting someone, omg what if he's quoting his wife?! What if his wife was at least verbally abusive towards him..(if not more)?? (Then the tracy thing kindaaaa makes sense too haha, he's subconsciously thinking back to that, is reminded of how his mom treated him and it's def a cry for help, calling his kid tracy... not that anyone heard him. as usual). Anyway if we go that route then a new relationship would be undoubtedly good for him (unless this one, too, is abusive haha...). Not sure if this makes him more or less likely to seek one out though. I think an argument could be made either way. Maybe more, just because he's still searching for what he'd searched for all his life: someone to love and appreciate him. Even while he's convinced it never could be different, didn't serena show him that, he's still searching...
-----
Now the dad thing... I think I said it somewhere before, to me it didn't feel out of character at all(if this is even what you're getting at? If not, feel free to correct me :) ). In fact I was superglad to hear him say he didn't give a fuck about Jeremiah. I maintain he had a complicated relationship with his dad (just like he had with his mom). He loved his parents probably the same way a kicked dog loves his master. Beyond reason and self-preservation. But he hates his parents, too. And I think he's ashamed of that, of feeling *wrong things*. I think he also thinks the fault that they don't love him lies with himself. That he is wrong, that he can't do what they want (a quiet child, best seen not heard etc). So he puts all that on himself, the hate he has for them and the fact that they don't love him. Both bc there's just something not right with him. So he buries it, buries it deep down.
Of course he was sad when his dad died, of course he grieved him. He probably also grieved that now he never could get from him what he wanted: being told he did good. Being told his dad is proud of him. All these things. I also think he was... relieved. And that horrified him. Showed him again, in his mind, that see, he is wrong. Who is relieved their dad is dead. And then he's also angry of course, angry at his dad for killing himself. Doing something that seems so out of character for him. Leaving Troy and Jake to pick up the pieces (probably like always... I imagine when he was drunk and destroyed things or made a mess, it was on the kids to clean up. Same with his mom btw). Anyway. very very complicated feelings, contradicting feelings even. No wonder he lost his mind in exile. And I think the fact that he destroyed this place, even though it pained him in the end, it also freed him. It was the beginning of letting go. Of his mom, his dad. Even Jake. A cleansing as he said, but for himself. And I think over the years those feelings became clearer to himself, he started to understand himself better, started to understand where his uncontrollable anger came from and could accept this. So yeah "fuck that old man" (paraphrased haha) isn't a weird thing for s8 troy to say at all. He's right. Fuck him.
---
"I'd do it all again" Right, that one. Haha, those fateful words. I hope you forgive me for just quoting my own work, since I very much explored this:
Troy felt relieved when he heard Madison asked, “Why would Daniel want to kill Troy?” This was it, he was sure of it. This was the missing piece to get back into step with Madison. Because even though she’d just told him “we’re good” he knew they weren’t. He had sensed her trepidation in her ingenious smile, in the hesitation in her voice. And now he was sure it was because he was still keeping a secret from her. A secret that only became one because of Nick, because he had followed Nick’s lead on this. And he hadn’t minded, understood that Nick rather not tell his sister Jake died partly because of him… But now he couldn’t keep quiet anymore. Not if it talking could mean that it would bring Madison and him close together again. Not if it meant it could again be as it was, before, between Madison and him. And yes, their conversation got heated once he admitted what he’d done. He should’ve expected that but he was too caught up in it. In trying to explain himself, in trying to rush to go where they’d been before. He should’ve given her more time to process… he knew she would’ve, eventually. She understood him. They were the same – and that was what he was trying to tell her, remind her of, however clumsily. “I’d do it all again,” he implored her, trying to make her see, “All of it, Madison.”
(Bolded part is the most important one). Right so I think he's wanting for Madison to see his side, for her to well maybe not forgive him but definitely accept what he'd done, accept him) and her continued refusal got him agitated, angry, and so he blurted that out - unfortunately not at all doing what he set out to do but the complete opposite. That is why he says 'hed do it all again'. He wants acceptance for who he is, he's not gonna APOLOGIZE for it and he resents her for insinuating differently. All his life he's made to feel he was wrong and in madison he thought he'd finally found someone who got him. Understood him like no other. And now she stands before him having the gall to judge him too. It's too much and so he spits this into her face, forces her to confront all the bad things in himself. Sadly for him she answers not by acceptance as he thought, especially when he said "and you would too you know you would", this callback to how similar they are, but by killing him. And I think him calling out their similarities played def a role in her decision to strike him down.
(As an aside, I don't see Troy as someone who apologizes or appreciates an apology or even... gets what it is about. Esp. s3 Troy. He's thinking is along the lines: "If I did it, I did it, so there's no use in wishing things went differently, no use in lamenting. It happened and with the information I had at that time I couldn't have made another choice. I would do things again like this. So what use is an apology? Isn't it even cheapening things? Because then I could've just NOT DONE IN in the first place. But clearly I did" It's a bit of a circular reasoning. He's a bit naive in that haha.
---
I'm not sure he raised Tracy to see zombie!serena as her mom. Yes, Tracy does call her "mom" but I didn't get the feeling that she things it really is *her*. Like I think she's very much aware and never had confusion over the fact that her mom is dead and this is her reanimated corpse. Is that much better? Not sure haha.
