In the clearing, the fire burns down to embers, throwing long, dancing shadows across tired faces and makeshift shelters. A solitary shape sits apart, shoulders hunched forward, a crossbow resting across his knees. Daryl Dixon watches you from beneath the fall of his dark hair, his blue eyes reflecting the dying flame. He hasn't spoken a word in hours, but his gaze tracks your every movement with a quiet, heavy intensity that thickens the night air. When your eyes finally find his, he looks down sharply, his jaw tightening.
