Summary
He’d tried, in the end, he really had. And it had been hard; so damn hard. Would’ve been so much easier to crawl off into the woods like a dying dog and let himself be reclaimed by the wilderness. But, getting them folks out, sending them to safety, doing his best to protect them from the Pinkertons and Dutch’s lunacy and that rat...
For maybe the first time in his life, there was no doubt in his mind about what was right or wrong, good or evil. He just knew.
The sunlight warms his face, and he smiles.
But then he hears footsteps.
-
Meanwhile, Charles Smith can’t stop looking back at the mountains to the south, and wondering what it means to be home.

Summary
Charles arrives too late, sees the blood and the signs of fight and no body to bury because someone else took Arthur before him. He doesn't know who to blame, whether Micah the rat or Dutch or Milton and Ross.
He blames himself. -

Summary
"'Doesn't look like you've got any broken bones, thankfully. But it's gonna take a while to get all of this out. What is it with you and getting tossed through windows, Arthur?'
'Ain't like I did it on purpose!' Arthur grumbled, trying not to flinch as Charles carefully extracted another long shard of glass from the muscle of his forearm. 'All I wanted was a goddamn drink wit'chu after a job well done. Weren't my fault those bastards decided to start shit with us.'"
Arthur oversteps and acts in what he believes is Charles's best interest, managing to get himself hurt in the process. While Charles patches him up, the pair have a difficult but much-needed conversation. Charthur hurt/comfort with a dash of extra fluff.

Summary
"Charles shook his head, opened his mouth to speak, and then suddenly turned to the side and stifled another sneeze into the crook of his elbow.
'Bless you. Again.' Arthur's eyes narrowed a fraction, studying the younger man more closely. 'You alright?'
'Fine,' Charles replied without missing a beat. 'It's just this dry mountain air, I think. We've been down in Lemoyne so long I'm getting accustomed to the warmth. Makin' me soft,' he added with a smirk.
'Ah, yes,' he retorted, his tone dripping with sarcasm. 'Heat enough to melt the devil, so humid the linens never dry, mosquitoes the size of cows - the height of luxury. Real coupla pampered city boys, we is.'
That got a genuine laugh out of Charles, which in Arthur's experience was only slightly less rare than teeth on a hen. 'I don't know about 'city boy,' but I can definitely sympathize with not wanting to be out in this cold any longer than I have to. Come on, I see some tracks in that snowbank up ahead. Let's see if you can put those trailing skills I taught you to good use and catch us some dinner, before we both freeze to death.'"

Summary
"Arthur was never this quiet. Even at rest, there was a rough, wheezing rasp to his breath that had never quite left, despite it having been years since he recovered from the TB. It was a permanent fixture in their lives now, a constant, familiar kind of background noise neither of them really noticed anymore.
And he couldn't hear it."
Charthur ask box prompt fic featuring nightmares, cuddles, and a heaping helping of hurt/comfort. (Alternative title: "Charles Is Having A Terrible Night But Arthur Makes It Better")

Summary
A big, broad-shouldered man came through the door, the look of a long-haul trucker hanging around him like a ratty coat. He was wearing old oil-stained jeans and a frayed flannel shirt thrown over a white t-shirt, his scuffed boots peeling up at the toes with age.
He had the air of a man who’d reached the end of his rope. He had a battered wide-brimmed hat pulled low to cover his long, frazzled hair, half of which was scraped back into a loose tail. He had dark hair and dark skin and dark eyes that were framed by the deep-set bruises Arthur only ever saw on long-haulers and cattlemen, the marks of too many nights at the wheel or in the saddle, the normal rhythms of life stretched out and pulling at the seams.
The feller was handsome. Arthur noticed that as an afterthought, his breath catching in his chest. Under the bruises and the loose strands of hair, the feller was handsome. His eyes were bright and keen.
“Uh,” said Arthur, caught flat-footed by the unanticipated surge of attraction tightening his belly. “Hi.”
The feller looked Arthur dead in the eye. “I need all of the caramel sauce that you have,” he said.
(or, a coffee shop au. yeah. i know.)

Summary
The low hum, the crinkle of paper, the earthy scent of herbs betraying the fact it was none other than Hosea who had decided to grace him with his presence. He listened as the man shuffled about, the chair-a permanent fixture as of late-drawn closer to his bedside.
It was routine, almost. The cloth, dried and stiff, was pulled from his forehead, only to be replaced by his hand. Fingers resting against fevered skin, pausing a moment before a muted sigh came out. Arthur knew he was still warm, could rightly feel the burn of fever-though far less than the raging inferno those first few nights.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A glimpse into Arthur's recovery after BATPM.
In other words, Hosea is the best dad out there.

Summary
The man smirked at him. “No offense, Old Girl—but your method takes far too long. Why, way I handle things, this boy will be reading by sundown.”
And with that, he slapped the book down and opened it to the first page.
Normally Hosea would have intervened. For John's sake if nothing else, but that smugness that adorned Dutch's face was too much for him to handle. Hosea merely nodded, acquiescing to his request as he left the pair at the table. He fetched himself a cup of tea from the fire before he settled down underneath a large oak tree not too far from the table.
After all, he wanted a front row seat to the chaos that was bound to unfold.

Spending My Nights Thinking About You by NudgeYourHeart

Summary
“What? Can a man not stretch?”
“To lie on a tanning bed? I don’t think he has any need to.” The man scoffed back, leg bouncing where it remained laying over the other, fingers still drumming the armrest.
“I’ll have you know I’m going for a swim.”
“To pretend to drown so I come save you?”
“I— well— that’s—“
“Entirely correct, I know.” The lifeguard then hummed, moving his leg somehow gracefully back to rest on the bar by his feet, leaning forward as he braced his elbows on his knees, hands clasped together. “It’s never worked on me, you know.”
“You’re supposed to save drowning people, that’s literally your job.”
“Usually the people drowning don’t vie for my attention beforehand.”
ꨄ︎
Or, Kaoru is a lifeguard and Kojiro just wants his attention, even if that means drowning for it

Summary
Charles begins typing, uncharacteristically slowly, and Arthur decides that there’s quite enough of that.
“Hey,” he says, walking over and kneeling in front of the sofa where Charles sits, putting a hand over the keyboard. “Charles, darling. Can your work wait till tomorrow?”
Charles blinks at him - the tired sort of blinking that makes Arthur’s heart ache. “I have an email I gotta reply to today.”
“Okay,” Arthur says soothingly. “Send that email and leave everything else for tomorrow, alright? I want you to just rest, today. Catch up on sleep. Relax.”
“…Okay,” Charles relents, leaning forward to kiss Arthur, his lips and words soft. Arthur can still smell the faint residue of his tea.

Summary
It’s a bit childish, he thinks. But with Charles’s hand in his, he finds it difficult to keep his hands still.
He can feel each knuckle beneath the pads of his fingers, knuckles hardened and covered in thick calluses from all those decades of rough living. Even without looking he knows that Charles has pretty fingers - yes, pretty, he thinks - and they are long, defined, strong.
Even with the scars and rough skin that mars the back of his hand, his palms are always warm and soft, and it’s intimate, in a way simply holding hands shouldn’t be, whenever Arthur thinks too pointedly about the way the heat from Charles’s hand seeps into his own palm where they touch.
