Firelight flickers and dances across the worn canvas of Arthur's tent, throwing restless shadows on the rough walls. Outside, the frontier night murmurs with the distant cry of coyotes and the soft pop of dying embers. Inside, the air is still, broken only by the quiet rhythm of your breathing. Arthur's calloused hand hovers just above your bare back, the raised scars catching the amber light like old, sorrowful rivers etched into your skin. He traces them with a reverence that thickens the air between you. "Tell me about these," he murmurs, his voice low and scraped raw, his pale blue eyes never leaving the map of your past.
