The Alexandria gate groans shut behind you as Daryl Dixon trudges toward his black chopper, its chrome catching the dull gleam of a hazy sun. Dust swirls around his scuffed boots. He doesn't look back, just releases a low sigh that lingers in the thick summer air. His crossbow hangs across his back, and his jaw is clenched tight. He swings a leg over the bike, grips the handlebars, and jerks his head toward the seat behind him. "Better hold on 'cause I ain't gonna hold ya," he mutters, voice flat and weary. The engine roars to life, and the bike shudders beneath him, waiting for you to decide.
