Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik was grateful for the new clothes. And, he supposed, even for this godsdamned room since it was steamy and warm and chased the chill from his bones. He got ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
It was everything that Pratik could do to keep from cursing everything in existence: the brushes, the women, Ash, Tarr, and the gods themselves. Instead, he clenched his teeth and ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik felt like a toddler. Of all the degrading, humiliating, debasing things — here he was letting old women bathe him. He scrubbed his own face with his hands every ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik eyed the brushes, suddenly realizing that scrubbing them down hadn’t been a metaphor. This was going to hurt. Still, it would be nice to get a bath no matter ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik trudged along, a shiver running down his spine as he considered what that whip would do to his flesh if he got a flogging. He just wanted to get ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
(Thank you for the reminder! I definitely didn’t remember that lol) Pratik felt the little hope he had dwindle at the mention of a new collar. And his heart broke ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik forced himself to look at the ground, face burning with embarrassment and the cold, acutely aware that he was standing naked between men haggling over him like a prize ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik stood shivering, making a mental note to kill Tarr once he was done with this job. No bastard that treated slaves like this — or assaulted women like that ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
It was cruelty. The scant clothing they had was already not enough. And now the bastard wanted them naked out in this cold. Couldn’t even be bothered to bring them ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik took a deep breath, bracing himself for whatever disrespect Tarr might show him when he got that far down the line. It wouldn’t do to glare at Tarr. Not ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik’s eyes flicked from the slave bleeding out on the ground, to the slaver, then down to his own hands. He wanted no part of trying to outrun an arrow. ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik sat up a bit straighter, cringing as the collar rested against the patch of skin it had already rubbed raw. But he craned his neck, hoping to get a ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
Pratik was beaten by the time they got to Wolf Keep. He was trying his best to be a good, obedient slave -- but half a second of resentment before ...

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
(I think it'd be nice to switch over to Pratik/Tarr ^-^ )

Re: Two Crows Watch from the Gallows Tree (cont'd)
(Do you want to skip? We could go to Pratik/Tarr? Or further ahead to when Aleth isn't quite so dead? aha)
