Arthur is dealt a mission from Dutch; get John washed up. It should’ve gone smoothly, but John loves to push for things Arthur isn’t sure he should have. And surely Arthur has enough restraint.

Summary
"So I say to the man," Arthur slurred loudly, for once in his life seeming to enjoy the attention he was commanding from his friends, "I say, 'well, like I said, I can't stay long.' Felt a little weird in there - you fellers ever seen a sane couple livin' out in the middle of creation?"
Arthur had no shortage of unbelievable stories from his travels, and John had heard a handful. He couldn't recall hearing this story, or at least not yet.
"Don't think I know this one."
So, he joins the small group mingling around the campfire and listens, not realizing the debauchery this choice would lead to.

Summary
Arthur’s pinning him by the scruff of his neck, always telling him he’s like a stray cat, he’s a pest, he’s a pain in the ass, and John’s never been the smartest but he’s pretty sure the word for that last one is irony.

All this to say, he's not Arthur's ideal drinking partner. Lenny was the most fun--and at least Bill was dumb as fuck enough to be entertaining when he started a brawl.

Summary
It's been Arthur's sole source of attention for a few weeks now. For some godforsaken reason, the sight of John's skin, sun kissed, peppered with freckles, sweaty and… god, it made Arthur feel things. Things he shouldn't be feeling for his fellow gang member.
But he couldn't help it.
One day, he breaks.

Summary
Arthur spends his days surviving as best he can in the undead-infested remains of New Hanover. Some days, he installs generators and does work on the house. Others, he drinks until he passes out.
Old memories stacked against him, he's willing to accept his sentence to purgatory and eek out an existence in relatively safe solitude. Until one day, the discovery and rescue of another survivor forces him into a different kind of danger.

Summary
“C’mon, Arthur, please,” John whispers, “Why you so mad at me?”
“You left,” Arthur says darkly, “Us. All of us.”
“... You?” John leans in, pressing his lips together and squeezing Arthur’s knees again, “You never liked me anyway. Let me trail you like a stupid mutt and laughed when you kicked me.”
“What?” Arthur leans back.
“You knew I liked you,” John says thickly, “I told you.”
“You were drunk, kinda like you are right now,” Arthur says slowly.

Summary
He breathes in deeply and lets it out through his teeth as Arthur smooths the salve over the bruise, starting at John’s collarbone and working down.
Tender and gentle and John has to close his eyes so he doesn't accidentally meet Arthur's.
This shouldn't get him off, it hurts for one-
For two, Arthur doesn't mean it like that.
The older man's just being generous with that big heart o' his and John's lucky enough to be the recipient.
Arthur's fingers unceremoniously drag the salve over his nipple, across his ribs from his sternum out.
John clenches his hands in the bedroll, trying not to catch fire with how hot he's burning.

"Have you," Arthur presses his lips together before rubbing at his jaw, "Done somethin' like that?"
"No," John says hoarsely, "No, I ain't…"
"S'fine, if you are."
John stares at him, face scrunched in confusion, cheeks still burning red.
"It is," Arthur says gently, "Promise."

Summary
John lays down stiffly next to him and Arthur sighs roughly, only to feel John stiffen further, wiggle as far away as he can.
"... I ain't gonna bite you."
"You need more room than I do."
"I mean, yeah, that might be true but you ain't gotta… You can spread out a lil', that can't be comfortable."
"Arthur, none of this is comfortable."
"Have… Have you never shared a bed before?"
John's resounding silence answers him, embarrassed and loud despite John not protesting.

Summary
“What ‘bout you?” Arthur asks quietly as he strokes the bottom few inches of his length while John’s fingers cradle the head.
John leans his hips forward against the wagon.
It doesn’t help much, the hard, unrelenting wood, but it’s a solid thing to press against.
He feels his face flushed bright and hot as he avoids Arthur’s eyes.
“C’mon, you wanna repay me?” Arthur whispers, “Tell me.”
