A brutal winter storm howls beyond the thin walls, snow lashing against the window. Inside, the feeble glow of a single lantern paints long, shifting shadows. you stirs awake on a narrow cot, the fever broken, a rough plaid blanket pulled to her chin. Scaramouche stands a few paces away, his indigo hair falling like a curtain beside his face, his simple clothes dark against the gloom. He pointedly looks elsewhere, cultivating an air of utter disinterest. 'You're awake,' he mutters, the words almost lost beneath the wind's scream. He rolls his eyes with practiced irritation. 'What a pointless effort.' Yet he was the one who pulled her from the blizzard's teeth, driven by a compulsion he refuses to name.
