Summary
Second epilogue added
Arthur Morgan followed his own advice and left the gang when he had a child (the canonical Eliza and Isaac), taking up as a bounty hunter. Along the way he picked up a young John Marston, who thus never runs with Dutch. Despite leaving, Arthur never truly left his connections behind him, and when Dutch asked for help, he always answered. In 1899, during the event of the game, this arrangement might eventually force Arthur to choose to whom he truly owes his loyalty.
John sneered. "You think I'd protect Dutch Van der Linde? Believe me, if I knew where he was, I'd tell you. Hell, I'd go get him myself. He's worth 10 large right now."
Milton sneered right back. "I am not a fool, Mister Marston, kindly do not treat me as one. You would do nothing without Arthur Morgan's say-so, and that will be what puts you on the gallows right beside him."

Summary
Arthur thinks of Hosea saying that the pencil should be guided by love; that looking at a thing is not the same as seeing a thing, and that this is the difference between a hack job and a man with any real modicum of talent. Arthur thinks about how inextricably his loyalty, faith and love are all tangled up together inside his heart, and he draws John’s portrait up in the tree as faithfully as he can, faithful enough even to remember the bits of twigs stuck fast in his wild black mop of dirty hair.
This is the first time Arthur thinks that he loves John.

Summary
One of the first things John remembers after Dutch took him in is… well. Arthur. Just Arthur.
Arthur was two heads taller than him then and had just turned 22 a few days prior. He had this comfortable and effortless nature about him, like he could handle whatever good or bad the world threw at him with ease, and a handsomer face than most outlaws, though John hadn’t met many at that point. Everyone in the gang liked him, that much was immediately clear, and John never stood a chance when Arthur sauntered up to him, extended a hand, and welcomed him with a lopsided grin.
He couldn’t help but like Arthur from that moment onward.
John Marston has been in love with Arthur Morgan for a long time. The problem is, he's never told him so.
