    Summary

    Dutch van der Linde spoke fire and brimstone gospel, and didn’t respect a word of it. Christmas was on the way far too fast, and the feud between him and Colm O’Driscoll’s church came to an all time high around this time of year.

    Arthur Morgan just had to hope they survived the holidays and had an alright Christmas. With Dutch pledging to upstage the blasphemous bastard, and a violent mystery unfolding behind the scenes, it weren’t looking too good.

    - - -

    A Christmas Red Dead modern AU about the Baptist church, the folks of a small Deep South town, eating too much on the holidays, and Arthur Morgan trying to hold it together.

    Title from Zach Bryan’s Someday

    Summary

    1907. I have long stopped tallying the months.

    After shooting Micah and abandoning John in 1907, Dutch wanders the mountains with little but an unraveled mind and two guns on his belt. Unbeknownst to him, there are several cryptic secrets across the wilderness waiting for the infamous seeker to find them.

    Inspired by Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and written in first person journal entry format, this is a story about Dutch’s guilt, grief, dreams, and relentless loneliness when pushed to extremes. It centers around the Manmade Mutant point of interest, and gives some characters “second chances”.

    This is not a Dutch redemption story.

    Summary

    Eight years have passed since Blackwater, Saint Denis, and the fall of the van der Linde gang. The survivors are trying to make a life for themselves – some moving on to nobler pursuits, some circling back like carrion birds to the scores they left behind.

    And outside a town called Purgatory, West Elizabeth, a man wakes up without a scrap of memory or a name, haunted by a black wolf and a golden stag.
