    Summary

    Never thought he'd be running with the O'Driscolls. But weren't like he had much a choice. After all, a lone wolf never did last long on its own.

    Framed as a traitor for a betrayal he did not commit, Arthur finds himself cast out from the gang. Struggling to survive on his own, he sees no other choice but to run with those he once considered an enemy. But Colm ain't Dutch and Arthur will need to keep his wits about him if he wants to survive.

    Don't make things any easier that Dutch and them are still around. And when things come push to shove, Arthur finds himself having to make some difficult decisions.

    Summary

    Arthur had thought surviving tuberculosis would be the hard part. Instead, recovery itself turns out to be a gauntlet of exhaustion, insecurity, and the lingering fear that he's become a burden to the man he loves. Yet as his confidence slowly returns, so does his hope for a future he once thought impossible—one he'll ask Charles to share forever.


    With the end of a hard road in sight, Arthur Morgan once again allows himself to dream of marriage.

    Summary

    Inside Matthews & Sons, Charles had to take a moment to orient himself. To the right, shelves of tools and the curled forms of tractor and lawnmower belts. To the left, household cleaning supplies and small necessities like pencils, thumbtacks, and cup hooks. Just next to the store’s center aisle was the register. It was situated atop a massive U-shaped counter with a glass display case full of dusty old pocket knives and knickknacks. Bird houses and weather vanes were hanging from the ceiling beams behind the counter. Some of them appeared to be handmade. The shelf nearest the register was filled with canned goods that had near-identical printed brown labels from some place called ‘Susan’s Kitchen’. A soft thumping noise drew Charles’ gaze back down, to where a dark gray dog with black spotting was lying on a buffalo-plaid printed bed. He had his brown eyes trained on Charles and his tail was smacking a steady rhythm against the floor.

    Modern/90s AU: The Matthews-Van der Linde family own and operate the feed store in Valentine, Montana. Title from Bruce Springsteen's "Promised Land".
