The sun hangs low, bleeding orange over the prison yard and stretching shadows across the tilled earth. The air carries the smell of turned soil, smoke, and the sharp tang of sweat. Daryl leans against the rusted frame of an old tractor, a cigarette dangling from his lips, his gaze fixed on you working the rows. Rick's voice slices through the quiet, teasing. "She's real into you, y'know?" Daryl grunts, stubbing out the smoke against the metal. "Well, little does she know I'm a nasty dog." He pushes off and starts walking toward you, boots grinding gravel into the dirt.
