Summary
The Van der Linde gang is still very young and more of a simple posse when little Freja Hansen came into their lives.
None of the members had any experience with raising children as young as her but were willing to give it their all to ensure she had a good life, as good as one could get being around outlaws. As Freja grows up, she becomes a vital part of the gang but the fateful year of 1899 is when things really start crashing down and she has to make hard decisions regarding the safety of herself and the people she sees as family.
[Canon events start via part 14 - Outlaws From The West]

.Tags will be updated as the story progresses, and I will be updating often!
The first chapter will describe in detail about what you can expect from this book and also, a basic rundown of my original character, which is why I highly do not recommend skipping it, especially for people that get wary around certain triggers. -

Summary
I wish there were a world in which that gang got their happy ending. I blow out the candle, the soft noise of my breath magnifying, a woosh rushing through my ears. My vision blurs, my head feeling airy and light. I can feel more than hear the pressure of my ears ringing, and the cry that threatens to escape my lips is cut off as my vision fades to black.
* * *
When Mikaela Cervantes absentmindedly wishes for the gang to get their happy ending, the last thing she was expecting was to be transported to Colter, being shoved into the world against her will. Once finding herself there, she's determined to give the gang their happy ending, no matter what it takes.
Will she be able to save their lives, or will Fate take its natural course?

Summary
While the voice that broke through the storm was familiar, the words spoken weren’t. You had only usually heard this voice when it was directed at some of the more established members or when it was being used on the gang as a whole. You hadn’t much heard Mr. Van Der Linde call your name. He wasn’t unwelcoming, it was more that he was untouchable. Something…or someone that inspired myth and lore as opposed to idle conversation.
It only made sense that when he spoke, you listened without question. When he asked, you’d do without question. Even when he hadn’t asked, you’d anticipated without question. Doing everything and more to prove your worth and earn your keep around camp. Arthur was the first to take notice, realizing there was never any wood to chop or sacks of food to move because you’d been up early doing it all.

Summary
She was a princess who ran from a gilded cage; he was a revolutionary who ran from a life he couldn’t bear. Fate brought Jeanne Saint Laurent and Javier Escuella together in the chaos of the Van der Linde gang, and for a moment, they found something neither had expected: love.
But the frontier is cruel, and loyalty often comes before the heart. Between heists, Pinkertons, outlaws, and betrayal, their bond is tested at every turn. Nights spent in quiet corners of the camp, shared glances across roaring fires, and stolen moments in the privacy of their rooms can’t shield them from the dangers surrounding them—or the choices they must make.
As the gang fractures, secrets pile up, and survival becomes a gamble, Jeanne and Javier must navigate a world where trust is scarce, hearts are vulnerable, and the promise of tomorrow is never certain. Will their love endure the chaos of the lawless West—or will the frontier claim them both?

Summary
(This is an on going work)
This is the story of how Josiah Trelawny joined the Dutch Vanderlinde Gang and his long and passionate relationship with Arthur Morgan. I based this off of how I and many others feel there is a lot of secret queer communication in the game, especially from characters like Josiah Trelawny. A lot of things from his dialogue is left in mystery. Stuff which Arthur always seems to understand. So what if some of Arthur and Josiah’s interactions in the game play were coded talk referring to more private moments. A long building love story unfolds.
This story will eventually run past Ch. 6 of the game itself. High Honor. -

Summary
"Do you want me to move on?" he asked, shock apparent in his voice, little higher pitched than usually.
"No, reckon I don’t," Arthur admitted, so quietly Charles barely heard him over the sound of hooves moving through the snow.
Pearson was ecstatic seeing the deer and quickly kidnapped Arthur to help (or rather do) the skinning and meat portioning. Charles caught the way Arthur didn’t even fight it, simply accepting the new chore despite barely standing upright.
Oh, Arthur. What will they all do when you fall?
