    Summary

    Arthur's got a good thing going, despite his shortcomings-- ex-con, smoker, teen father, recently dumped by his fiancée-- Like, he's got a job. A pretty good one. And his family, as odd as it is, can be pretty loving. He hasn't thought about suicide in a very long time, he's re-emerging from his depressive episode, and he's even eating better. So, why does he have to go to therapy?

    And more importantly, why is he infatuated with the new cowboy at John's Ranch? Why does Charles Smith have such a hold on him?

    The AU where Arthur gets the therapy he obviously needed.

    Summary

    That beaming light at Hani's Bethel does more than simply shine down on Arthur, and he takes away more than just a few meaningless trinkets. Explanations don't come easy, certain events have left their mark, but the only direction a man can truly go is forward.

    ---
    A reimagining of that strange little UFO encounter in the game.

    My first fic, please be kind, and please mind the tags.

    Summary

    You don’t usually venture into any of the spaces filled with men and unnatural moonlight, and you know the beasts with the two big glowing moons in their roaring faces are dangerous. But the beast you come across tonight is stilled, and is only accompanied by a single man. The beast’s moons have been darkened, a strange ticking emitting from its mouth as it sits in wait with the man.

    The man is brazenly perched on top of his beast’s strange snout. Smoke curls into the night air on some of the man’s exhales. The pups at your back shy nervously away at the thought of fire burning inside a man, but you see the burning thing is actually in the man’s paw. Your fear is the healthy wariness of men, nothing so deep-rooted and powerful as the fear of fire.

    Modern Van der Linde gang AU: You are the coyote that gave John Marston his scars. That's it. That's the whole premise.

    Summary

    “Very prepared man, aren’t you?” Arthur asked, looking into Charles’ brown eyes. Looking at him felt the same as that very night. Calm, quiet, gentle, warm.
    A warm breeze passed over the pair of men as they looked at one another. Charles nodded, walking to Taima and securing his bedroll to the saddle.
    “Would you…” Charles started softly, weakly. “Would you like to go hunting with me?”
    Arthur thought for a moment. “I wouldn’t mind.”
    It was what he needed, really. Some real time away from camp. Charles wasn’t bad company.
