Marylinton Stories

Story description Arthur Morgan dies gasping beneath a painted sky-a hard life etched into every scar, every silent regret. But death does not keep him. Instead, he wakes up decades earlier in the familiar weight of his younger body, the tang of campfire smoke in the air, and the echo of Mary Linton's voice still warm in his chest. He remembers everything. Dutch's descent. Hosea's quiet worry. Micah's betrayal. Blackwater. And all the graves he could never find the words to apologize to. But this time, the future is not carved in stone. Reborn inside the Van der Linde gang long before the world collapses, Arthur carries a burden heavier than any saddlebag: the knowledge of every death to come. Annabelle, Dutch's first love-destined to be shot by Colm O'Driscoll. Bessie Matthews-Hosea's beloved wife, gentle and doomed. Jenny Kirk and Davey Callander-marked to bleed out in the snow before Chapter 1 ever begins. Mac Callander-left behind to die in Pinkerton hands. Arthur will not allow it. Not again. Not this time. But changing fate means changing people-especially Dutch. And saving lives means exposing secrets, risking distrust, and choosing a path even more treacherous than the one he remembers. And then there is Mary. Mary Linton, whose smile once cut deeper than any bullet. Mary, who Arthur lost to the world's cruelty and his own misguided loyalty. Mary, who he now sees again-brighter, younger, untouched by heartbreak, unaware of the man he once became. With a second chance laid before him like fresh snow, Arthur must walk a razor edge between past and future, love and regret, loyalty and truth. Each step reshapes the timeline...and each stolen moment with Mary threatens to unravel the resolve he swore to carry. Can he save them all? Can he save himself? Or is fate a river that pulls all men under, no matter how many times they rise? One thing is certain. Arthur Morgan rides again. And this time, he is not riding toward the dusk-but toward the dawn.

Arthur Morgan takes Mary Linton home after staying out late. Just a short fic, nothing special, more like writing practice if nothing else... There are probably some inconveniences lmao

The gang has survived worse than this. Friends killed, money lost, and trouble still chasing them. But they were together as a family again and that should be all that mattered. Yet, Dutch's plans are growing crazier even with Hosea to speak against them. They're risking their lives for foolish gains and with Micah in Dutch's ear, there seems to be no end in sight. Worse, Arthur has pulled Charlotte further into the gang instead of out. The Pinkertons are closing in on them and if Arthur wants to survive, he needs to decide where to keep his loyalty: to himself or to the man leading them down a path of destruction.

Arthur's story before 1899. Will start writing it soon!
