I am currently rewriting this fic, so I strongly recommend to read the other one <3 We mark the year 1934 and a peculiar journal falls into your hands. It's telling the tale of an outlaw and the downfall of a gang. Some pages are torn and others are downright unreadable, but nevertheless, you are still able to make out some parts of the tragic story. With the help of a certain time traveler friend of yours, will you be able to save the author of the journal or will you be the cause for his demise?

By 1899, the age of outlaws and gunslingers was at an end. America was becoming a land of laws... Even the west had mostly been tamed. A few gangs still roamed, but they were being hunted down and destroyed. This is the story of one of those gangs that roamed the west. The Van Der Linde gang, a group of people who have chosen to reject the rules of society and the power of the government, not wanting to be ruled by anyone and instead living by their own code and laws. After a failed heist in Blackwater, the group, led by Dutch van der Linde, will travel east across America to escape those who pursue them, encountering an old rival, and dangers around every corner. As internal conflict starts to brew, Arthur Morgan and his childhood friend, (Y/N) (L/N) are forced to choose between their ideals and their loyalty to the gang. ... In NO way shape or form do I own the plot and story and characters of Red Dead Redemption 2. This is a FANFICTION created for fun! I make NO PROFITS off this story! This is just for people to freely enjoy and read. ... This story is MATURE. It contains depictions of violence, occasional threats and mentions of rape, racism, graphic death, and sex. DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE A MINOR or someone who cannot handle those things! I would be devastated if I triggered anyone's trauma unintentionally! ):

Dutch Van der Linde, Hosea Matthews, and their adopted progeny look different in 1891. Mostly peaceful, largely law-abiding (with some natural exceptions)...the tensions between Arthur Morgan and John Marston revolve not around the pull of a trigger but the daughter of Dutch Van der Linde, who John has grown up loving, and Arthur's just come to notice. How will their shifting affections affect, in turn, the motley family they've built? *** This is a new prequel to the events of Red Dead Redemption 2, featuring an OC, Dutch's daughter Emmylou "Lou" Van der Linde. A heads-up that I did write a short with Dutch's daughter in it a while back ("Three Protégés", in the Bellicose collection, but this one will be different. Mostly romance, some darker themes coming in (can't help myself). Definitely 18+! All characters from RDR2 belong to Rockstar Games. (Also a note that I couldn't find a credit for who edited the pic of young John I used for my cover - if this was you, I love it!)

If he believed in Heaven, she would be an angel; his angel. Her name was Lorna and she decided that his life was worth fighting for.....and maybe it was.

Arthur Morgan was never one to fall madly in love....until the day he met Lorna. That was when everything changed for him. (Unedited) (1897-1907) Covers Blackwater and other events. Does not follow the game 100%) (Check out my other story; May I, Stand Unshaken? It's part two of the Last Love series)

Marie was not in the best place when she was snatched up by the Van Der Linde gang. But it was not as bad as before. Now she has to deal with this new gang falling into obsessive love with her, and an angry Colm.

Arthur Morgan x OC: "Take a boozy short leave of your nymphs on the shore, and silence their mourning with vows of returning, though never intending to visit them more." After a near-deadly shootout in Valentine, Arthur Morgan retreats to a wooded cabin to lick his wounds and recover. But the reclusive woman he meets there causes him to question everything he believes in, and all of the people he holds dear. Does she have secrets of her own that she's hiding? ** Hi all; this is a little RDR2 romance (Arthur x original character) story. It follows the events of the game for the most part (meaning there are some spoilers, if you haven't finished the game yet!), but there are some changes/additions. Of course, all RDR2 characters/settings are Rockstar Games. Hope you all enjoy and would love to hear your thoughts. This story was completed September 18, 2021. A content warning: depictions of sex, violence, swearing, and other mature themes.

After a notorious outlaw is found accidentally by Arthur Morgan, Minnie Barlow is befriended by the fellow outlaw after giving up information about Colm O'Driscoll, a gang leader both she and Dutch van der Linde have detested. She is offered a tent of safety in their camp as their search for their rival was incessant as she insisted her stay was interim after taking notice of being too attracted to Arthur, sharing the same taste for hunting, fishing, and robbing, the pair almost imperceptive that they were letting themselves fall in love. As one of Arthur's dear friends and father figure tells it, "the course of true love cannot be stopped, whether it is intended or not." Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

What does it take for a stubborn cowgirl to come together with a self-depreciating cowboy. Perhaps a force more powerful than a person. A Fanfiction Romance based on Rockstar Games' Red Dead Redemption 2 follows the tale of two fated lovers. (Reader Insert, Female Reader)
