Hello! My friend and I adore you fic and were curious if Scar had any sort of disabled equipment such as a wheelchair or cane?

Hi!! If you're sending me this ask then I assume you've read Chapter 8, which is where we go into some more detail about Scar's backstory. I don't make any mention of mobility aids in that chapter though, so thanks for the question!

No, Scar does not use a wheelchair in Firewatch AU. Fire lookouts and mountain hiking trails are in general not very accessible, unfortunately. As for a cane, I have not decided, but he would certainly make use of dual hiking (trekking) poles when going to and from his lookout and other places. It's my understanding that while hiking poles may not be a good permanent replacement for a cane year-round, that they would still fulfill the same need pretty well. As in, I find it unlikely he would carry an extra cane to his lookout when he already has dual hiking sticks. So the answer to that question is a...maybe???

I have a few ideas for associated works in this AU, and one of them is a short Scar-centric fic. I can definitely expand a lot more on his character there, since in the main fic we only get the details Scar tells Grian. Overall though, in this AU Scar has chronic pain (and indeed some mobility issues) associated with the accident he was in. I have not pinned down exactly what all his injuries were, though. I did a lot of research looking at stories from other people's experiences, but ultimately the healing process is very individual so I didn't come up with any "blueprints" for everything. It's something I plan to research more when I get to a place where I need to be specific.
