Headcanon where James (season 4) and Alex Fairbanks are brothers. In this au, James is not as pacifistic, only resorting to killing walkers to defend himself and Alex. Alex is 15 in this and James is 20 since this sets scene in season 4 and Alex was 7 in the Michonne game, and it’s been about 8 years since in the final season it says Clementine’s 16-17. James and Alex have been wandering for years, using their skills they learnt from the whisperers to move around herds. Alex doesn’t like using the mask a lot and likes to take breaks every now and then to at least eat. Instead of calling them walkers, Alex refers to them as Wendigos. James wasn’t as close to his Grandmother, so he was never told about Wendigos. Similar to Aasim, Alex has written alot of what has happened through out his life, and how much he looks up to James. When they meet Clementine and Aj, and she offers them to stay, Alex gets the biggest smile he’s had in years. Finally, they don’t have to keep walking, they can settle down, just like James said, with people they can trust. James isn’t that trustworthy, but agrees, to make Alex happy.
