    Summary

    “I’m not jealous of them, Marston.” A wad of spit hits the ground to the right of John’s head and he sneers. “I'm embarrassed for you.”

     

    Arthur's not giving him the time of day, so John distracts himself elsewhere. There are consequences.

    Summary

    “Dutch and I are older. You’re closest to his age.” Hosea puts a hand up to halt Arthur’s protestations at that– “I know you’re an adult Arthur, you’re still the youngest. He can see an easier path to being you than to being me or being Dutch. That’s a valuable thing for a young man that’s been through what he has.”

    He moves his hand to pat Arthur’s arm. “I’ll still be showing him things, but I want him taking your example, too. We all have to pitch in.”

    Arthur grunts, and frowns, and gnaws at his lip. But ultimately he acquiesces and bows his big head in deference to his fathers’ wills.

    John Marston starts, to him, a burden.

    -------------------
    Things change for Arthur over the scale of years. John Marston worms his way in to parts of him he thought long dead.

    Summary

    John’s lurking when he sees it.

    Well not lurking so much as crouching in the alleyway between the local saloon and general store, all while peering furiously through the smeared window pane. It ain’t that he’s trying to appear suspect, more like, well… he’s fucking…

    Lurking.

    Summary

    When he squeezed his eyes shut tighter, he saw not the shadow, but Mike's hand reaching toward him in the lodge earlier that day. The way his thumb had brushed Will's cheekbone.

    The hunger in that touch disguised as benevolence.

    When sleep finally took him, it wasn't rest. It was a drowning. And beneath his bunk, the shadow pooled thick as oil, waiting to swallow him whole.

    ⚬──────────⊱​†⊰──────────⚬

    After his father catches him doing something he shouldn’t, Will is sent away to a Christian summer camp to be “fixed.”
