Summary
The heavy bass is making the oil-puddles shiver. Arthur leans against the wall, watching with a lazy eye as the puddles of filthy, iridescent water dance. Lines of neon jittering across their surface, pounding in time with the music, some garbage iridium synth track with too many drops that makes the whole alley vibrate, reverberating in his cyberware.
It sure as shit ain't good music, but the club is eating it up. Arthur supposes he should just be glad that he's not inside. He leans back, fitting his cigarette to his lips. A slow drag in, and then out.
Arthur holds his cigarette out - offering.
Eyes flick his way, glowing gold in the dark. His companion tilts his head, a silent refusal.

Summary
He grabs you from behind the moment the main road is out of sight, his hand over your mouth as he yanks you against him, your back against his front and his arm wrapped securely around your waist.
“If you scream,” Arthur says, “I’ll snap your neck.”

Summary
When two bounty hunters meet on the same job, the usual thing is that only one bounty hunter comes away with the prize. But you and Arthur Morgan managed to make it work, and kept making it work, and then something even more unlikely happened: two bounty hunters started meeting up on purpose. To make the hunting easier - yeah, that's right.

Summary
Arthur let himself soften, turned to keep his eyes on the fire that glowed warm against the biting cold of the morning. “I know,” He said. “Things ain’t good for us right now, but… it ain’t safe. You know what the O’Driscolls are like, for folk like me.”
“I’ve watched you kill, Arthur,” Said Pearson, and there was a flicker of that old fear deep in his eyes, never quite gone away. The smartest part of him still that blustering navy man taking command of the cooking to hide how terrified he was of them. Fear that was faint, but still sour, on the still air. “I’ve seen what you do to idiots who pick fights with us. You werewolves aren’t that fragile.”
“We ain’t that strong, neither,” Arthur told him.
The Pinkertons have been lost in the snow, and the law has bigger game on its mind. The O'Driscolls aren't as easy to lose.

Summary
Charles had been running from his soulmate for years. Arthur never wanted to believe in soulmates.
They'd never tried to find each other, never communicated since the string between them appeared. That was, until one lonely, fateful night, Charles decided to tug on their shared string. On the other side, still healing from Mary and Eliza and his son, Arthur is reminded of a soulmate he'd long since forgotten.
It's all up from there.
── ⋅⋅⋅ ──
In short, two idiots play tug-of-war with their soulmate string, unwanted feelings develop, and somehow everything turned out just fine.

Summary
Bounty hunting: It's a hell of a way to make a living. Travel the country, see the sights, give rotten folk their just deserts- and the pay ain't half bad, either. Of course, when another bounty hunter shows up at your latest job, that's less than ideal.
Pre-canon: starting in 1897.

Summary
Thirteen years of killing. Thirteen years without the faintest glimmer of hope.
Thirteen years of boredom, broken up by endless tension and bursts of horror.
This is the tale of the last year. The year that the greatest soldier to have ever served amongst The Bastards of Sanbreque died.
The year that ended when Clive Rosfield chose to live again.
------
Or; a collection of loosely connected tales and missions Clive went through in the last year or so before the Nysa Defile.
Edit 06/03/2025: Chapters 8 and 10 have been re-edited. Dialogue heavily redone to attempt to make it feel more natural, alongside some narration.

Summary
Five years after Ultima’s defeat, those left behind have no choice but to push onward in a world still on the precipice of ruin. Left with all that remains of Clive—her twin boys—both Jill and Joshua do all that can be to ensure the world they grow up in is one of less strife and struggle than what came before. But the destruction of the crystals and the god that created them has left the aether and eikons in a state of chaotic distress that plagues the entirety of Valisthea. And now, to have received a letter from the north about stone bearers coming back to life, Jill has a new mystery to unfold.
At the same time, Clive finds himself waking on what he thinks must be the western Rosarian coast, though how he arrived there, he doesn’t know. Nor has he any idea how much time has passed since that final fight with Ultima. But as he begins to investigate, he sees a battle of eikonic proportions in the distance, one that revives old, bitter memories. Ifrit, perhaps, can make up for wrongs wrought so long ago.
Meanwhile, behind the scenes, a shadow manipulates them all, his eyes set on those who would become dominants and tools both.

Summary
Jack Marston has always seen himself as a liar, but maybe he has been a lover in disguise.
He should’ve known the law would come eventually. You don’t kill the former Chief of the Bureau of Investigation and expect to ride off forever. Sooner or later, the past catches up wearing a badge and holding a gun.
Clutching his bleeding side, Jack's only wish is to hug his parents one last time.
Hell, it turns out, looks an awful lot like 1899.
OR: Jack Marston time travels to the events of RDR2.

Summary
A big, broad-shouldered man came through the door, the look of a long-haul trucker hanging around him like a ratty coat. He was wearing old oil-stained jeans and a frayed flannel shirt thrown over a white t-shirt, his scuffed boots peeling up at the toes with age.
He had the air of a man who’d reached the end of his rope. He had a battered wide-brimmed hat pulled low to cover his long, frazzled hair, half of which was scraped back into a loose tail. He had dark hair and dark skin and dark eyes that were framed by the deep-set bruises Arthur only ever saw on long-haulers and cattlemen, the marks of too many nights at the wheel or in the saddle, the normal rhythms of life stretched out and pulling at the seams.
The feller was handsome. Arthur noticed that as an afterthought, his breath catching in his chest. Under the bruises and the loose strands of hair, the feller was handsome. His eyes were bright and keen.
“Uh,” said Arthur, caught flat-footed by the unanticipated surge of attraction tightening his belly. “Hi.”
The feller looked Arthur dead in the eye. “I need all of the caramel sauce that you have,” he said.
(or, a coffee shop au. yeah. i know.)

Summary
Arthur Morgan had been with the Van der Linde gang for just shy of eight years, and his loyalty to those who gave him refuge and purpose was not to be questioned. After sneaking out of Chicago following havoc they may have inadvertently caused, the gang move from bustling Illinois to the prairie fields of northern Kansas and are in need of money. Looking for honest work to keep his hands clean as a newcomer of the state, Arthur gets a job at Old Stone Ranch, owned by one esteemed but covetous and dour entrepreneur and businessman, Henry Gillis. What Arthur soon learns is that the ranch is a family business set to pass down to Gillis’ eldest child, Mary, who Arthur takes a liking to. As the duo from two different worlds get closer and closer, Arthur is forced to reflect on where his loyalties lie: can he fight and change for the woman he loves despite all odds, or continue giving in to the outlaw life he has been moulded to fit into?
Or: An interpreted story on how Arthur and Mary met, fell in love and ultimately fell apart.
