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?

He heads to Blackwater for help, and meets a stalwart barmaid with a few tricks up her sleeve. Can they team up and break the curse? * Hi gang! This is an action-horror-western fic loosely based on the RDR: Undead Nightmare game - but knowing what we know, I can't resist throwing some RDR2 characters/settings in there, too.

Red Dead Revelation I: A Good Thing (ArthurXEliza) by SayHwaet

Summary: ***this story is being revised on AO3 A story hidden in the past, no one really knows how Arthur and Eliza met. Despite its tragic ending, it had a beginning. One of love, hope, and an unknown future. Eliza Bloom was young and alone, recently made an orphan, and was merely trying to get by. Keeping any hopes and dreams that she once had tucked away, she worked long days as a waitress in the blossoming town's only restaurant in the wild, untamed West. Not being able to enjoy any of the pleasures a young woman was afforded, she had little time to socialize or see what the world had to offer. However, when a caravan of gold prospectors came into the town, she meets a tall, handsome stranger. She does not have any inclination as to how such an event, which was commonplace at her place of work, would change her life...and his. This is fanfiction expounding on the lore within Red Dead Redemption. I do not own the original characters or own Read Dead Redemption, which have been created by Rockstar. Eliza (Bloom) and Isaac are both my interpretations of the characters, as they were only lightly mentioned within the course of the second installment of the game's franchise. Alice Ford, Bethy, and additional characters that add depth to the story are my own creation. The story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this literary work are fictitious. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places, buildings, and products is intended or should be inferred. Please note: not every installment is "mature," however, this is a fair warning that the themes in this story are appropriate for only mature audiences.

Stand Unshaken (Arthur Morgan x Reader) by OneArtsyGamer03

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 lead 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! ):

Riches to Revolvers | rdr2 | Wattys2019 by thatredheadxo

COMPLETED. The Van Der Linde gang kidnaps the innocent Sarah McDonnell during a train robbery. Her mother sent her off that same day to get away from settling and missed opportunities. She was only 20 and didn't know a single thing about the real world. She's shoved into Arthur Morgan's hands all because of Dutch Van Der Linde's games of revenge. She's helpless and falls in love with the brooding Mr Morgan. But he doesn't know what to do with a pretty, innocent rich girl who knows nothing of rough living. RDR2 fanfiction. I would've love for Arthur to fall in love but who says I can't make him in my own story? CONTAINS SPOILERS!!! Read at your own risk! I DO NOT OWN RDR2. This is purely for fun. My OCs are Amelia and Sarah. The rest are Rockstar affiliated characters. I have to state this for obvious reasons.

One Wrong Choice by PrimaryQ

This is a Red Dead Redemption 2 Fan-fic. Arthur Morgan x Female Y/n (Reader) Life is pretty simple as a rich woman. No, let me try that again. Life is pretty simple as woman married to a rich man. Stay silent unless spoken too, dress with only the latest fashion, don't do anything unlady-like, and remain faithful to your husband. No matter what. Heaven forbid a happily married, high society woman of any respectability be found going against any of these rules. Good thing then, you are not a happily married woman; and when a group of outlaws makes a sudden appearance in your dreary city of Saint Denis, you happily break every single rule in the book. This story will not follow strictly along the lines of Red Dead Redemption 2 but I will do my best to do every character the justice they deserve. However, I'm a sucker for happy endings so I will be adding my own spin on it. DISCLAIMER: I do not own rdr2 or any of its characters. This is a non-profit fan made story.

In the Wake of Shadows | RDR2 Arthur x OC by drblue11

Unassuming house-wife-turned-murderer Diana Crowe meets Arthur Morgan in a saloon, where too much whiskey and easy conversation make for a rare night of good company and laughter. But by morning, Arthur wakes to find his pockets empty, his journal rifled through, and the woman from the night before long gone-until he catches up to her. She recognizes his name from Blackwater; he sees nothing but a starving, desperate thief. Furious but unwilling to leave her to die, Arthur makes a choice that will alter both their paths, bringing her into a world of outlaws, loyalty, and the ghosts they can't outrun. | slow burn | enemies to lovers | rdr2 |

The Angel Butcher of Rio Bravo: An RDR2 Story by goodbyelisahoney

[ Arthur Morgan / John Marston x OC love triangle ] "Let me be sweet to you," she murmured, nuzzling into his neck. "I'm always giving you such a time, aren't I?" * Tine Nilsen, known outside of the law as the Butcher of Rio Bravo, is a fearsome member of the Van der Linde gang when they run afoul of the Pinkerton detective agency in Blackwater. But will she help steer the gang and its two key gunslingers - Arthur Morgan and John Marston - right? Or will she be responsible for its downfall? * Well, here I go again, folks! Tine Nilsen was an OC cooked up for an otherworldly short story in my RDR2 collection, BELLICOSE (that story is called "Left Behind"). I liked her and her dynamic with Arthur and John so much, I thought I'd give this a spin! It will follow events of the game for the most part, but with the omission of a certain character, expect things to change, some. This story was completed on February 23, 2023. Hopefully you'll like it! This is a mature story written for mature, 18+ audiences: violence, swears, smut will all be within, reader beware. RDR2 and related characters/settings belong to Rockstar Games.
