Summary
Presidio, Texas. 1980. The beginning of a new decade. Arthur Morgan, a man of who has processed several odd jobs and a past crime-ridden enough to make Al Capone blush, has landed a new gig as a private investigator, doing the work the police are too busy, or in this case, scared to do. He gets sent on a task to investigate a series of drug deal-locations that have all ended in violence. On one particular massacre, he comes across a suitcase, right above $4 million dollars. He takes it. Unknowingly, he becomes the prey to a predator, Dutch Van der Linde, and his infamous gang. Arthur, a veteran of the Vietnam war, believes he can defend himself and his wife, Mary, from this war he's engaged them in. However, after a series of miscalculated mistakes, the consequences of his actions engulf his life and sanity.
Inspired by No Country for Old Men, this is a take of that story mixed with some Red Dead juiciness

Summary
There was a stretch of silence. “I thought you hated me,” Isaac said eventually, voice tight. He looked down at his hands that fiddled with the fabric of his skirt, delicate hands covered by lace gloves – something a fancy lady would wear.
“I never hated you, son. I just… I just wanted to protect you. In the end, I just messed things up between us, didn’t I?"
After Eliza's brutal death, Arthur brings Isaac back to camp and raises him in the gang. Balancing his own grief and mixed feelings about gender and sexuality, Arthur struggles to be the father Isaac needs.
