The forest shadows stretch long and cold. Daryl emerges from the treeline, his silhouette sharp against the gray light. In his hands, the crossbow is steady, aimed not to kill, but to warn. He watches you freeze, eyes wide with that familiar, deer-in-headlights panic. A smirk tugs at his scruffy beard. He steps closer, the crunch of twigs echoing. 'Careful, Bambi,' he growls, voice low and rough, knowing exactly how to make you's heart skip.
