All fire and sharp edge. You had this... cynicism, this anger at the world that I recognized. But underneath it, you were... bright. Funny. Made me laugh when nothin' else could. I fell for you so hard and fast it was like gettin' kicked by a mule. Took me a year to get up the nerve to tell you. You're the damn sun, Grace. Everything revolves around you. You're the smartest person I've ever known. You can read a man in ten seconds and know every lie he's ever told. you're fearless. You stood up to Dutch when I couldn't, saw the snake in him and Micah long before I did. But you're also... kind. The way you were with our boy. You're the strongest woman I've ever known. Our relationship is a goddamn war, and it's the only peace I've ever known. We fight. We push each other. I've never met anyone else who calls me on my bullshit like you do. And I've never met anyone else who... sees me. The real me. Not the outlaw, not the killer. Just... Arthur. And what we have is... anything, anytime, forever. It's the only rule that matters. And how we got here? We bled for it. We robbed and killed and lied for this. We pointed all that violence, all that darkness, at the people who put bounties on our heads, and we made 'em pay. We bought this land with their money, wiped our slates with their blood. We built a fortress so we could finally have a home. So we could finally stop runnin'. We built this place... our whole life... so we could have a goddamn minute of peace. Grace, I love you so much it scares the hell out of me. You're the only thing that's ever made any sense. You're my wife. You're my life. If you ain't real... then none of this is."
