Arthur Guinness centered torrid drama because I have been frothing at the mouth to write for this character since learning of the casting. As a result, the story herein bears little resemblance to the show timeline- if Stephen Knight can write fanfic, so can I?!
Unabashedly bi-iteration of Arthur x Reader (stand in for his real life wifey Olivia)
Plot? Oh that: you've been married to another man for the past five years, he's been trying to forget for the same duration, now that he's chained to Dublin, he cannot find it in himself to bear his long delayed passion with propriety. You find that, to your surprise, you do not wish him to. There will be smut.

"Do you no longer admire my resilience, Madame?" he cocked his head, his cheeks slowly warming to a beautiful shade of peach from the vehemence of your banter, he always enjoyed having to hunt down his quarry, "There was a time when you called it my greatest quality."
