Summary
Arthur shifts his aim. Hovers on Colm’s haggard face, slightly out of focus due to the sheer distance. And Colm - somehow - glances up to his right. Directly at the glint of the rifle scope.
For a split second, Arthur looks him in the eye.
He flinches back. Footsteps clatter behind him, skidding on the rock. He turns, and the butt of a rifle smashes into his head.Set during and after 'Blessed Are The Peacemakers' in Chapter 3, a bid to parley with the O'Driscolls goes disastrously wrong. Charles takes it upon himself to find Arthur and bring him home before he succumbs to days of torture and imprisonment.

Summary
“We should...get out on a real trip soon,” Arthur says, low in his voice, still unsure, hesitant, resting his forehead against Charles’ when he straightens back up. Charles’ eyelashes flicker, thick black like the perfectly painted eyes of ancient Egyptian frescoes, lined with kohl, and such a rich liquid brown beneath, like drops of coffee. “Go wanderin’ for a few days, y’know?”
Set somewhere in Chapter 3, Arthur and Charles go on a hunting trip, and Arthur thinks on his developing relationship with Charles while getting summarily roasted by his family back at camp.

Summary
Who knew maize could be such a maze, Arthur muses. Huffing at his own brilliant wordplay, he makes a mental note to tell Charles that joke. Later. When they’re not shooting bounty hunters in a cornfield game of cat and mouse.
Set during the Chapter 3 mission 'Magicians for Sport', Arthur and Charles track Trelawny to some bounty hunters, and as usual, everything goes spectacularly wrong.

Summary
Charles sits down next to him, his shoulder gently bumping into Arthur’s. He appreciates the contact, touch like this being a rare occurrence, even though it sends a jolt of pain through his aching body, even if Charles probably shouldn’t be this close to him.
He should tell him. Tell him that he's sick, tell him to keep his distance so he doesn't catch it - but can't bring himself to. He will, eventually, but not here, where other people could be listening, not now, when he's just barely caught his breath.
As selfish as it might be, Arthur simply wants to stay close to Charles for a little while longer.
___Arthur’s sick. Lovesick, too, as he and Charles share a quiet moment in Beaver Hollow.
