"Here With Me" ||
Arthur Morgan x GN!Reader
Rating: None
Tumblr media
Asked by @photo1030
Ok, I gotcha….what about the first time someone tells Arthur they love him? Could be reader, m or f, or an existing character?
Oh I like this idea a lot and think it’s such a bittersweet feeling for Arthur, I won’t get into the meat of it, but you know how he feels about people calling him ‘a good man’, or just how Mary ended up treating him before she left. This man deserves the world, okay?
*
It had been an age since he heard those words, never had he thought he would actually ever hear them uttered to him, nor did he think he'd ever find the courage to mutter them aloud again to any living soul. He found himself undeserving of any kind words, living the life he had, he knew there'd be a mark upon his soul, and anyone foolish enough to accept him as he was, well they were just that: foolish. 
But there you were, admiring him from afar for so long that it almost felt like a fever dream when you two met. He'd brushed anything off at first, just thinking that whatever the weird spark he felt was just in his head, he always ignored those gut feelings because he felt that they didn't deserve to be had. But slowly, those large thick walls were chiseled away one by one over time. 
When you had decided to tell him how you finally felt, he wasn't sure what to do, he sat there unblinking, staring directly at you. What was he thinking? Why was he just… sitting there? You knew he wasn't one to delve into his feelings so openly, but your admitted confession had meant a lot to you, so your leg bounced up and down due to your nerves. You knew Arthur well enough that if you rushed him or made him feel like he needed to supply an answer right away, it wouldn't work out so well for either of you, but that didn’t stop you from assuming the worst.
As you sat there and allowed Arthur to think your confession through, you sat back and thought of all the ways he'd changed your life and the way you saw things, but most importantly, he always looked out for you, even when he felt that he shouldn't have gotten you involved in his life to begin with. Boldly, you reached across the wooden table that sat in the camp, the smell of fire and booze hung heavily around you, the lingering gang members that were awake were too drunk or tired to pay you two any mind. Your hand was placed on his, you didn't need to exchange words, you felt that he understood how you felt and why, well, you hoped he understood. 
Arthur was good at thinking of others, though he wouldn't care to admit it, always thinking of what was best for you, but never what was best for himself or you both. He was a stubborn man, but it was one of the many reasons you did love him. 
His silence wasn't odd, you preferred that he sat back to think things through rather than immediate dismissal, it meant that he was considering your words more than anyone could realize. But you loved to hear him speak, that gruff voice that you could never get enough of, and he graced you with the sound of it. 
“You uh, you sure you'd wanna love a man like me? You know what that means, don'tcha?” He asked you, his eyes stared at you beneath the brim of his hat. The light from the fire illuminated half of his face and he looked so beautiful, like a painting that was created with love and carefulness with each stroke. 
You just nod in response to his question as you sit across from him, a small smile across your face. “I do, yeah,” you say with a small breath of laughter. “I wouldn't say it carelessly, Arthur. Loving you with all of the ups and downs it comes with is something I'm willing to live with.”
Arthur listened to you once again, his jaw slightly clenched as he held back what he truly wanted to say, which would only be dismissing himself, and you smiled at his ability to bite his tongue. 
You couldn't help but chuckle at how his face contorted with so many emotions at once, and he just looked up at you with a hard stare, but it softened as soon as he locked eyes with you. 
“No matter what I say, you ain't gonna listen to reason, are you?” He asked you, his tone more gentle this time. 
You shook your head. “Nope. I've made up my mind. As grim as it seems, this world doesn't promise us anything, so why not take what time you have and enjoy it? You deserve it, Arthur.” Your grasp on his hand tightened, showing him you weren't going anywhere, he was stuck with you.
The gunslinger swallowed, how mouth suddenly dried as he nodded to your words. “It's… been a while since I heard ‘em, figured I never would again. But… it's nice to hear ‘em, ‘specially comin’ from you.” Arthur offered a smile as he continued to look at you beneath his hat, not wanting to give away just how happy you'd made him. Not yet. 
“I love you, that's all you need to know,” you assured the man, “you don't have to do things alone, you never had to, okay? Let me share your burdens with you, and if you don't wanna say it back yet, that's okay. I ain't going anywhere.” 
Arthur just nodded again, the smile widened, stretching his lips. “‘Course you ain't, wouldn't let you if you tried,” he said with a chuckle that followed. 
For now, those were the only words you needed to hear from him, you knew that with time and patience, that man who was so closed off to the world would allow you a glimpse of his heart.

Y/N, laying back down then face the opposite direction with a pout : I hate you.
Arthur, sighs :
Arthur, turning over to pull you into his arms tightly : Love you too, sunshine.

Sharing Cigarettes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
✿ Arthur Morgan x gn reader ✿
Warnings : Both Arthur and reader smoking, fluff, tiny tiny bit of angst if you blink, reader is sarcastic and blunt (just like our man, he's a bad influence)
Author's Note : I love him
Summary : You and Arthur share a cigarette by the lake.
Tumblr media
You make your way through the forest; the faint glow from the moon shines through the cracks in the trees and lights up the dirt path ahead of you. The only sounds that can be heard are the snapping of twigs and the rustle of leaves as you walk. You continue along the small trail and push the stray branches away with your hands as you step out onto the pebbled beach.
"Took you long enough, thought you got lost." You roll your eyes slightly at the gruff voice and make your way across the beach towards the faint glow in front of you.
"You could have waited." You mumble, raising your brow as the man shrugs.
"Would have been sat waitin' a while."
"You are so annoying." You groan, reaching out and snatching the lit cigarette from his hand.
"Don't you have your own damn cigarettes?" He protests.
"Sharing is caring, Arthur." You smile as you lift the smoke to your lips. He mumbles something quietly under his breath as you inhale deeply. "What's put you in such a mood?" You tease.
"You, for starters."
"Wow, I'm hurt." You smile, taking the cigarette and holding it out towards Arthur.
"Just Dutch driving me crazy, is all." He responds as he takes his cigarette back from you.
"Dutch is always driving everyone crazy, doesn't usually put you in such a bad mood." You move to lean beside Arthur, the rock digging into your back uncomfortably.
"He seems more... Out of it, than usual."
"In what way?" You question, turning to face him as he blows smoke into the air.
"You haven't noticed?" Arthur asks as he hands you back his cigarette and you take it with a smile.
"I mean, I guess?" You sigh. "I don't know, I think everyone is feeling that way lately."
"You not feeling the best?"
"Don't get me wrong, I love everyone in camp." You laugh quietly to yourself. "Let's just say... it's nice to have some alone time, like we are right now."
"So you like my company?" Arthur teases.
"Suppose you are okay to be around." You joke back as you blow a cloud of smoke in his direction, earning a small glare in return.
"Now my feelings are hurt." He mocks, placing his palm against his chest.
"I'm sure you will get over it." You look down at the cigarette between your fingers. "Do you have another?" You ask as you motion to the nearly dull one.
"No." He replies casually.
"No? Well aren't you useful." You tut sarcastically.
"I wasn't plannin' on sharing" He mutters as he swipes the cigarette from your hand.
"Hey! Didn't Dutch ever teach you it's rude to steal." You grin as you reach out.
"Quite the opposite, actually." He jokes, tilting his head back against the rock as he holds his cigarette up into the air.
"Shari-"
"Sharing is caring." He mocks, lifting the cigarette higher from your grasp. "Go on, You can do it!" He cheers.
"I hate you." You laugh as you hit him lightly across his chest.
"Thought I was, okay to be around?" He repeats your words as you move back to your previous spot against the rock.
"I sometimes wonder why I enjoy your presence."
"So now you enjoy bein' around me?" He smiles widely as you groan and passes you back the cigarette.
"Thank you." You mumble.
"What was that?" He laughs gently as you ignore his question and inhale another drag.
"You ever gone night fishing?" You ask out of the blue.
"I ain't the best when it comes to fishing." He mentions, gazing out onto the lake.
"I know that. That's not what I asked." You grin cheekily.
"Why are you asking?" He questions, taking back the cigarette once more.
"Because I want to go fishing." You state bluntly.
"Go fishing then." He responds- just as bluntly as you.
"Not much fun to go on my own."
"Ask Hosea." He suggests.
"Hosea isn't here, you fool." You step forwards from the rock and cross your arms against your chest as you stare back at Arthur.
"Fine, I'll come fishing with you." He sighs, dropping the smoke into the sand and stomping it out with his boot.
"Ain't like your going to be doing much, you wont catch anything." You Jest, smiling to yourself as you head towards the lake.
"Is that a challenge?" He laughs faintly as he follows after you.
"It will be an easy challenge." You grin.
"You have no idea what you are getting yourself into." He chuckles as you both stop at the shoreline.
"Oh it's on, Morgan."

Flower || Arthur Morgan ||
A/n: Takes place after the game, Arthur lives AU
Prompt used:
( FLOWER ) putting a flower in mine’s hair.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Arthur owed you his life, the man knew he wouldn’t be alive if he stayed with the gang. He knew that he would have not gotten over his T.B if it were not for you. Closing his eyes the man took a deep breath in, happy that his chest no longer burned. A smile slowly formed on his lips as his eyes scanned the horizon.
“Daddy!”
Turning his head to the voice a smile formed on his face as he watched his little girl rushed towards him. He could see flowers in her hand, a chuckle escaping his lips as he met is little girl halfway. “Whatcha doin Princess?”
“I was picking flowers with mommy?”
Grinning placed his hand on the girls head, kneeling down he titled his head to the side chucking as he took one of the flowers from her hand. “I can see that, you did a rather nice job.” He smiled tucking to flowers into each of her pig tails.
“THANKS DADDY!”
Spotting you slowly walking towards him, Arthur stood back up as he gave you a smile. “Anything for you Princess.”
“Mommy! Mommy! Look! Daddy put some flowers in my hair.”
Meeting Arthur’s gaze, you placed your hand on your daughters head. “He did! Now don’t you look pretty”
Stepping close to your side he placed a kiss to the side of your head. “Just like mommy.”

🐎Yer Alright, Girl~🐎
I found a beautiful black and white photo online that I immediately thought of as Arthur, so naturally, I drew him with my in-game grey dapple thoroughbred, Cirrus. Got her to max bonding level already and I JUST entered chapter 3.
But I've become obsessed with this game and well, I guess better 6 years later rather than never! I really do adore the story, the characters, it's all such a beautiful masterpiece. Arthur, as you can tell, is my main obsession though. I want nothing more than to cherish this man till the day I die. I have SO many feelings about this game.
Hence why he's become a strong art subject for me, I also really enjoy testing myself with the hat, I hate drawing hats 😂 But something about his I like. So I'm sorry about my obsession, it will continue ♡
Roger Clark, you're my hero.
