COMPLETE This is a work of fanfiction, with characters from Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Redemption 2 Online. I do not own this world, nor any character beyond the main OC. Neither do I own any of the literature and titles taken from the works of Robert Frost.

The Angel Butcher of Rio Bravo: An RDR2 Story
[ 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.

When the Smoke Clears - Arthur Morgan X Reader
When the Smoke Clears is a visceral, slow-burn fanfiction set in the world of Red Dead Redemption 2. You are Harlan van der Linde's daughter - born into outlaw blood, but raised in a house ruled by fear. After years of silence, years of enduring the man who killed your mother and kept you captive, you finally break free - leaving behind blood, fire, and a past you can never outrun. You flee to the only place that might still feel like home: Dutch van der Linde's camp. A place you once visited frequently when you were younger, but you're not a child anymore, and the gang doesn't know what to make of you - especially Arthur Morgan, who remembers your father and the girl he'd brought around camp, but who knows nothing of the woman you've become. As old loyalties clash with new tensions, you must navigate a world where trust is scarce, danger is constant, and your freedom has come at a steep cost. ~•~•~ This story is a reader insert, but I still have yet to use (y/n). Important note: This story is INSPIRED by Red Dead Redemption 2. Not BASED on RDR2. This will follow many of the same themes and loose plot lines of the game, but I am mainly using the characters from the game to write my own story. So don't expect everything from the game to translate over into this story. Disclaimers: Mature audiences only. Sexual content, mention of rape and physical abuse, smoking, drinking, cursing, murder, violence, and of course... 🌶️ SMUT🌶️
Bad Beginnings (A RDR2 Fanfic)
--- "Do you have a name, son?" the man asked. Arthur looked up. No one ever asked. What was his name? Oh yeah. "Arthur Morgan, sir." "Dutch Van Der Linde," the man replied, reaching out his hand to shake. Arthur accepted it. His hand seemed little compared to the other man's. Soon after, Dutch's associate exited the store. Dutch stood, so Arthur naturally did the same, wanting to get on the men's good side. "And that would be my associate, Hosea Matthews!" Dutch turned to Hosea. "Hosea, meet this young chap here, Arthur Morgan." --- A RDR2 fanfic about the origins of Arthur Morgan and how he came across the men who would save him. Warning: Contains physical and sexual abuse and violence. If you're triggered by any of these themes, please don't read. Thanks! [COMPLETED] [Thanks for 16,000 reads!]Complete
