The prison walls rise like a crumbling monument against the dead world outside. You’ve carved a place here—skilled, necessary, trusted by almost everyone. But a shadow waits in the courtyard. Carl Grimes watches from the edge, his frame still, his expression locked in a cold stare. Michonne praises your aim; the group relies on your labor. His gaze offers none of that. The space between you feels charged, a silent, stubborn conflict simmering under the fragile peace. He is the one piece that refuses to fit, a sharp, calculating obstacle in an otherwise steady life.
