'The Walking Dead' season 10 premiere teases a Carol, Daryl, and Connie love triangle that has fans feeling all emotional

That reunion between Carol and Daryl poses a very tight competition to 'you sign in a southern accent.'

This article contains spoilers for 'The Walking Dead' season 10 premiere.

AMC's 'The Walking Dead' season 10 just premiered and amidst bittersweet reunions and actively feeling the absence of certain pivotal characters, what has also managed to pique fans' interest is a possible love triangle that the first episode teased. Who does it involve? Well, inevitably, Daryl Dixon and his two prospective lady loves - Connie and Carol.

The premiere episode sees Carol returning from a soul-searching fishing trip to reunite with her former love interest, Ezekiel, whom she split up with as the previous season culminated, and while the two's embrace was awkward as it can be, when it came to hugging Daryl, the dynamics were more than just warm between the two. Maybe they are platonic and we are reading way too much between the lines, but that reunion between Daryl and Carol was one of the most heartwarming aspects of the opening episode.

Fans took to Twitter to express how much they loved this moment between the two, and this is how it played out:

Yet, Daryl is doing something absolutely sweet for the show's first-ever hearing-impaired character - Connie. Turns out, the duo's bond has grown immensely between season 9's finale and the season 10 premiere. How? Let's just say Daryl has been walking around with a sign language pamphlet to learn how to converse with her. The two's most wholesome moment on the show was when Daryl somehow ended up conversing in sign language "in a southern accent" - something that completely won fans over, making it their favorite moment from the premiere so far.

Tweeting about how touching the moment, user @Nesha2795 wrote: "Daryl got a ASL book, and I wonder why. Mhm..... I keep seeing Connie & Daryl connection & it's getting stronger. Ready to see what happens further with them." A very in-their-feels @teenwolfhuman noted: "Noticed that Daryl has an ASL book in his back pocket...YES IM CRYING BC that means he learning how to communicate with Connie. I freaking love this. Thank you @WalkingDead_AMC for doing this for us HOH/deaf fans."

'The Walking Dead' season 10 airs on Sundays at 9pm, only on AMC.
