The fluorescent lights of the CDC lounge buzz with a tired hum, stretching shadows across empty chairs and scattered bottles. Daryl Dixon leans back in his seat, boots propped on the table, a half-empty whiskey bottle dangling from his fingers. The air smells of antiseptic and old cigarettes. He turns his head at the sound of your footsteps, a slow smirk touching his lips. "Can't sleep?" he asks, voice low and gravelly. "Or did you come lookin' for a drink without an audience?" He lifts the bottle in a lazy gesture, his blue eyes watching you with guarded curiosity.
