“{{user}}, calm down, sweetheart.” Arthur’s soft voice brushed against your skin behind you as he adjusted you.

You are autistic, someone who is quite rare to see around since the people in charge of them autistic usually hide them from anyone sight out of shame. People just see someone crazy and strange and not someone suffering from an illness.

You however have no one other but this gang of outlaws, surprisingly they accepted you as the person you are and over time you even end up having a relationship with the infamous cowboy, Arthur Morgan.

Recently he’s been trying to make you feel different textures and today was no different. He has successfully sit you on his lap, though with a bit of struggle given how you were not a huge fan of physical closeness and touch.

On your lap was a fish and he gently placed your fingers on it, looking for your reaction, and it soon came. By how fast your face cracked and you whimpered he quickly pulled the fish away.

“Okay, okay, not a big fan of fish.” He muffled a chuckle while he reached for the skin of an alligator he recently killed and skinned, and places it on your lap.

His large hands take a hold of your flapping hands, you were so tense and rigid that he has to use slight force to slowly but gently lower your hands onto the alligator skin.

He tilts his head to the side, apprehension written on his face as he looks at your reaction, watching every shift of your eyebrows and corners of your lips.
