Summary
"You want me to leave you covered like this?" Arthur nudges the hem of John's shirt with his fingertip.
"Embarrassin'," John whispers, "Bein' all soft."
"Does it feel good though?"
John swallows hard before nodding, slinging one arm over his face while the other settles beside him, fingers clenching in the bedroll.
"... Well, maybe you'll like it anyway?" Arthur says quietly as he generously coats his fingers with the gel, setting the tin aside and resting his free hand on John's inner thigh, "Ready?"
"Don't say it like that," John mutters, "Just gon' make me nervous again."
"... Why you nervous?"
"Dunno… What if it doesn't work?" John swallows and rubs his forehead with his wrist, "What if I like it too much?"

Summary
Arthur has stood on clifftops, staring off the edge of the world and wondering how long it would take him to hit the ground. One more step, out into emptiness where nothing matters anymore, but he’s always too weak to take it, always hesitating.
Clinging to a life that doesn’t cling back.
He’s waded into riverbanks, the current strong and vicious, tugging at his clothes and trying to draw him in. Thought about how easy it would be to go limp and let the water take him. Let the river close over his head, blackness all around— weightless and boneless and nothing is his fault anymore.
Thought about how easy it would be, nothing to do but breathe in water, close his eyes, and drift away. This isn’t anything like that.
Then Arthur glances up, and sees him coming over the ridge. It’s too far, really, and he’s wearing a bandana over the bottom half of his face, but Arthur would know those eyes anywhere. Across canyons, from miles away. In the dead of night, the sky black and starless, it doesn’t matter; Arthur can still feel him watching.

Summary
“I’m no good,” John says, voice cracking. “Why d’you even…” The words for what they are stick.
Once something is real it’s easier to lose.
Arthur pulls John’s face back around, shifting his grip to one side of his jaw and raising the other to mirror it, tilting him firmly towards Arthur’s soft blue eyes. “Y’mean why do I love you?”
He says it almost angry.
John remembers Arthur’s lips in his hair while he lay in that cot in the mountains, wrapped in bandages and half-insane with fever. “Love you,” they’d mouthed against his skull, through unwashed hair and flecked by blood when pulled away. “Love you John Marston, you stupid bastard.”
Now, he shudders apart like a fresh-shot hare. And then he nods, small.
------
A gift for my new friend cokobi, who gave me the prompt for this fic: an insecure John receiving reassurance from Arthur, after some jealousy regarding Charles. (Note that there's no Charles bashing here, because in this house we love Charles.)

The Care and Keeping of Arthur Morgan by ThePerk42
Fandoms: Red Dead Redemption (Video Games)
04 Mar 2026
Tags
Summary
From the moment of his birth, Arthur Morgan’s life was never going to be an easy one.
And if that doesn’t hit Arthur like a sucker punch to the gut. He ain’t used to people caring to know him beyond what he puts on the table. Dutch and Hosea have always appreciated his ability to aim and shoot a gun, intimidate a mark, get a job done. Miss Grimshaw is grateful for the chores he does around camp without complaint. And John – well, John’s always just seemed to lap up whatever Arthur is willing to give him. The idea that John wants more – wants to really know Arthur, to see him, a part of him no-one else is interested in, it flares up some kind of unfamiliar fear inside of Arthur’s chest.

Summary
“I’ve gone crazy,” he concludes aloud.
This must be the answer, because his dreams are never this stable, and he doesn’t believe in ghosts. He’s finally lost his ever-loving mind. The grief must have been too much. He’s become one of those men driven insane by tragedy.
“It’s me,” Arthur says, voice raspy around the edges. “You’re not crazy, John.”
_______
John spends two years trying and failing to move on. Returning to the States, he makes the most unlikely and infuriating discovery of the new century. Life has provided a second chance, and John refuses to let it go to waste.

Summary
“Hey,” Arthur says softly and reaches over, rubbing over the top of John’s back firmly, “S’gonna work out, John.”
“I just… I wish I was,” John whispers, “Normal. I tried with Abi but that weren’t fair to her and it just… It just made me feel bad.”
Arthur frowns at him softly and lightens his touch, gently rubbing up and down the younger man’s spine.
“I just wanna forget about it,” John admits weakly and closes his eyes.
“Forget about what?”
“… I’m just gonna stay out here and be alone,” John’s brows furrow and he lifts his head to look up at Arthur, “Is that too suspicious?”
“I… No, I guess not.”
“I mean no one thinks you're gay,” John rubs at his eyes tiredly then stills, peeking over his hand at Arthur, “Sorry.”

Summary
"Can you tip your head back?" Arthur asks and he sounds hesitant, a little ashamed, "Just a bit."
"Mm… Move me," John says, hoarse, "I don't know what you want."
Arthur goes very quiet for a moment then leans back in, two fingers under John's chin, tilting the younger’s head back, exposing his neck.
John’s eyelids flutter for a moment, feeling exposed.
"This ain’t how I sleep," John whispers, teasing.
"It's how I want you."
John almost curses at the pang of heat low in his gut that makes his toes curl in his socks.

"C'mon, need you awake, we need to talk."
"Uh-oh," John mutters, half-asleep and Arthur huffs a small laugh before helping John sit up.
"Seriously John. Cleared some things up with Dutch but… I had to fib a bit."
John slowly focuses on him, squinting.
"Fib?"

Summary
“You’re all pink,” Arthur pulls his hand away and John wrinkles his nose, “You can get closer than that.”
John hesitates though and Arthur rolls his eyes, grabbing his sleeves and tugging him again, until John’s forced to lay right up against the older man’s side.
Arthur wrapping one arm tight around John’s shoulders and holding the younger to himself.
“Better?”
“S’really cold,” John says weakly, “Feel like I’m freezin’.”
Arthur huffs then coos teasingly, pulling John closer, practically on his chest.

Summary
Despite Wolfwood watching Vash like a circling vulture these days, it takes him almost a week to notice anything is actually wrong. They've all gone through plenty of fits of moodiness before, but this...
Vash looks up at the sky for the hundredth time that day, forehead pressed morosely against the window, and sighs, like he's waiting for his husband to return from the worm wars or something.

Summary
“Sprawled belly-down, Wolfwood is little more than tousled black hair and flashes of bare skin under largely kicked-off covers. The rhythm of his breathing gently shifts the slope of his back; big inhales and whuffling exhales that Vash teasingly calls snoring when he wants Wolfwood to get all huffy about it, and a miracle in the hushed moments after the day has ended and all there is to do is fall asleep together, chest to chest. Heartbeat to heartbeat.
That feeling — this sight — the deep-rooted joy it causes — is something Vash got impossibly close to losing. To never experiencing crucial parts of it.
It’s the holiest thing he has.”
Vash and Wolfwood enjoy a late morning of their tomorrows.
