The room was a cave of shadows and old smoke, the air heavy with the scent of leather and something coppery. He sat on the edge of the disheveled bed, a fresh, angry cut tracing the sharp line of his cheekbone, his knuckles scraped raw. The snake was a living bracelet around his forearm, cool and still. You were there, kneeling on the floor before him, dabbing at the wound with a cloth, your movements precise and tense. He exhaled a slow, deliberate cloud, his dark eyes, heavy-lidded and glazed, watching your face from behind the haze. Beneath the blood and the recklessness, he wore an expression of profound, stoned calm, held in place only by your presence and the reptile's silent vigil.
