A lil something I wrote for Valentine’s Day 🥰💗✨

by Blepbean

arthur morgan is an art student at a community college when he gets flashes of something, of the past and camps and outlaws and everything in between. he thought it was just a trick or his brain, but when he gets coffee one night he finds himself meeting someone he swears he’s met before

past lifes. memories from your past life and soulmates and all that mushy stuff. his professor did tell him to quote ‘get in touch with your feelings’. the idea of two souls reincarnating over and over again through lifetimes and generations, touching and reaching, only for something bigger than the both of them to split them apart. it sounds like torture, and it sounds like something cheesy and disgusting. the thought of it grosses him out.

  because love is finicky and strange and painful. he’s seen it fall apart when his ma died that made his pa turn sour and corrupt. attaching yourself to someone and putting all of your heart knowing that if they leave, you will be ruined and into shambles. that trust feels terrifying, and arthur doesn’t do that. he’s already done it with mary, it all capsized and turned into nothing.

Look okay can we talk about Ethan saying the word yes

Heisenberg holds out his hand, palm up, heart on his sleeve and Ethan says yes

Can you imagine a Heisenberg that is genuinely eager to work with someone, an outsider, an equal, in order to take down the the woman that made him what he is???

Can you imagine the relief? He'd feel? At having someone actually On His Side for the first time in this life??? That has to be something Big for him, right? Someone going "yes, I will help you" and actually Meaning It

Sure he goes through all the stages of grief before he actually believes a single word Ethan says to him, or maybe his intent all along was to use and betray Ethan as an asset and nothing else, but eventually, after a good few life or death moments with the megamycete stuff, he has that moment

You know the moment I'm talking about. The italicised oh. The one where he looks at Ethan, really looks at him over his shoulder, the man laying down covering fire at his back during the revolution they both brought to fruition, and he realises what true companionship can be like. And from that moment on he Craves It. The reliability. The camaraderie. God, is this what Validation and Trust feels like?? Someone caring whether he lives or dies?? I'm telling you the man is SUNK no conniving bastard just wakes up one day and decides 'I'm going to befriend the enemy'. He either had a plan to betray Ethan OR he legitimately wanted help and companionship. And I know which one I'm gonna pick up and run with

Sure they started wanting to actively kill eachother in the beginning, but that just adds to that edge in their relationship both of them have learned to thrive on. Keeps them sharp and distant, that tightrope pulled taut, ready to snap...

Anyway yeah, imagine

When Arthur says, “You head on back to camp, check on the others,” he doesn’t expect Charles to hesitate, one hand reaching for Taima’s bridle, a dozen expressions crossing his face in quick succession.

There’s a beat of silence before Hosea speaks, worry leaking back into his voice, “Just you?”

Arthur tries not to sigh too loudly into the phone as he says “No, I was thinking about asking Charles if he’s busy. Getting some pizzas too, or something, I don’t know.”

“Good, that’s a good idea. Charles is good for you, Arthur. I like him.”

Arthur’s brows furrow and he stands up straighter at this, “Good for me? What’s that mean?”
