Dr. Elias Wilkinson finds himself caught in a treacherous game, led by a mysterious map and pursued by men. His journey will lead him up notable trails and rivers where he plans to change history. But is that what Heyes and Curry want? What about the Devil's Hole Gang? Sinclair's men?

Missing scenes, thoughts within scenes, and a short coda to 'Smiler with a Gun'

The boys spend a few days on the trail after being chased by a posse before heading to another town.

First posted on AO3 on Dec 26th 2020. A little moment of peace between our two favourite reforming outlaws. With the tension between the guys, I guess I was thinking S3, but as always in my writing it's Pete Duel's version of Heyes I'm meaning to write.

Every author writes a Curry and Heyes prison story. This is mine.

Heyes and the Kid cross paths with the doomed Donner Party.

Starts from before the boys were born, then follows events in their lives that shaped them, finishing not long post-series. Thanks to Carol and Linda for the beta. Words added to ch21 and ch33 since initial AO3 post. This story would not have been finished without KimL. So it's dedicated to her with heartfelt thanks, for her on this and other tales. Thank-you.

Heyes shares some thoughts about his partner

A short story about the age of Time (previously posted on another site). Major character death.

Crosspost. Heyes is shot when he and the Kid are captured by a bounty hunter. When even once they're safe at Lom's place, it still looks bad for him, the Kid swears revenge. There is a complete lack of geographical reality in this story. I researched, but chose writer's license. Mea Culpa. Happy Ending.

Series Timeline - Written for a starter sentence challenge. New Years' Resolutions are easily and quickly forgotten. This year Heyes has an idea for the partner's to actually keep one. This is an old challenge story I found when looking for something else and thought I'd post it here.

Series Timeline - Chapter one written for the prompt Guilty Conscience. Heyes and Curry are falsely convicted of robbery and murder. Have the partners come to the end of the line. Not beta read - all errors are mine. Not a character death fic.

Off cannon story (first paragraph explains) about a trip back to Kansas. Sentimental? Hopefully. Tearjerker? No.

The impact a kept promise has on Heyes and Kid.

Series Timeline - This was written for the 2025 Virtual Season. Heyes and Curry run the risk of being recognized. They need to get out town quickly on the first available means of transportation.

Decided To start compiling these author chats. So this will always be "in progress."
