My Second Life: Sadie Adler by SilentFromAbove
Fandoms: Red Dead Redemption (Video Games)
30 Mar 2026

Summary
The “What If” story of Sadie Adler & Arthur Morgan, following an altered storyline of the game RDR2
~ My second life promised blood. His promised redemption. We kept both promises in the end. ~
“If Colm wasn’t alive,” Arthur finally said, voice gone distant, “what would you want?”
“Breakfast." I smiled because it hurt less than telling the truth.
“After breakfast?"
“Clean hands that still know what to do,” I said, and the second smile surprised me more than the first. “A horse that likes me more than not. A little time where the only thing that needs killin’ is silence. No one callin’ me Miss anything.”
He nodded like he’d been handed a map that didn’t promise roads. “I could stand that."
“And you? If Dutch’s ‘one last score’ didn’t end with all of us in holes or heatstroke?”
“Quiet… a river with fish that ain’t clever. A place where a man can come inside without lookin’ over one shoulder and then the other. No parades. No letters.” He didn’t look at me when he said that, and I didn’t make him.
“You there, if you want,” he added, so bare it almost weren't words.
“I ain’t pretty company, Arthur."
“I ain’t either. We’ll make an ugly peace.”

A living human being in perfect hibernation. The man has been identified as a long-lost Space Marine, the only known survivor of the Phobos Event.Warning: Day of Wrath contains profanity, graphic depictions of violence, mature themes, and potentially disturbing content.

Summary
“Caitlyn!”
Caitlyn froze halfway across the porch. She whirled around, eyes frantically scanning the darkness at the sudden, desperate shout.
The Ford pickup had made it about a quarter of a mile down the winding dirt road, still idling with its red taillights lit up. The driver’s side door had been flung wide open.
Vi was running back to Caitlyn in a dead sprint.
Caitlyn’s blood began pounding in her ears once her heart kickstarted back to life. She raced off the porch, charging over the loose gravel of the driveway, dirt kicking up around her heels when she hit the main road.
The cheerleader kept going, legs churning, lungs burning, heart nearly ready to burst. She barely had time to brace herself for impact, mouth open as she panted from the exertion.
Vi collided with her. The force of it knocked the remaining air out of Caitlyn.
OR
Grease meets Arcane. Vi is the leader of her loyal high school gang, The Slicks. Jinx and her pals are the Blue Crew. Caitlyn is the new girl in town, just trying to find her place.

Summary
A brutal counteroffensive on the Day of Black Sun alters the trajectories of Zuko and Katara's fates, changing their lives forever.
This work delves deeply into the world of Avatar, staying true to much of the source inspiration while taking liberties so as to age it up and break down so many of those amazing themes and questions brought up in the show. Specific focus on trauma, guilt, and PTSD; on the moral gray area that war creates and the inevitability of having to do the hard thing over the right thing. Early chapters set the framework, but later chapters are some of my best writing.
Sprawling, long-form character study (mainly 3rd person, with 1st person flashbacks).
Rated M (read tags). Ignore AO3—work first published in August 2022.

Summary
Dean Winchester fixes things. Keeps his head down. Follows orders, mostly. Doesn’t ask questions. He can’t afford to, not with a father watching his every move, a brother he’s desperate to protect, and a past sealed behind a NDA.
So when a repair job sends him to a brothel on the edge of town, he tells himself it’s just work. Just another job.
But the android he’s sent to fix doesn’t behave like the others. It looks at him too long. Hesitates before it speaks. And when it touches him, Dean forgets that machines aren’t supposed to feel.
He knows better than to get involved. He does it anyway.
Now he’s tangled in something bigger. He’ll have to decide if being human is about what you’re made of or the choices you make.

Summary
Harris clears his throat. “There is one more part to this. They also were hoping that after you do your intro you’ll goof around with their mascot, Gritty, on the ice for a bit.”
Shane rolls his eyes, not that Harris can see him over the phone, but still.
Clocking the silence, Harris continues, “He’s the most popular character in the league, you know. He has more followers on socials than some NHL teams. Within 24 hrs of his reveal he was tweeting death threats at Pittsburgh’s mascot. Having a Gritty moment could be really good exposure for the foundation.”
“Can’t Ilya do it? He’s good at threats," Shane says morosely.
**Shane and Ilya are ready to share their relationship with the world, and everyone has a different idea of how to make it happen. It’s a high pressure situation, and they are both so over it. Still, despite the craziness of their lives, Shane never thought that the big reveal would come because of Ilya’s jealousy towards a 300 pound, 7 foot tall, googly-eyed orange muppet, but here they are…
A love letter to always being there for your partner, even if that includes starting a fight with the opposing team’s mascot.
