Why this must be read:
Oh c'mon, it's a Western AU. With Fraser as the outlaw and Ray as the sheriff - do I really have to say more than that? Seriously?
Unfortunately, and I mean that in the best possible way, this was meant as part one of a larger story which didn't get written. Yet. Maybe we can bribetex to do it after all:). It's a Stand Alone, though.
Ben was bareheaded and his hair was a little longer than it was the last time Ray had seen him, curling around Ben’s ears and his collar. He looked damned healthy for an outlaw. But then, in Ray’s experience, those folks who walked on the wrong side of the law seemed to have more luck and more lives than a cat. And Ben Fraser was luckier than most.
Cursed or blessed. Ray wasn’t sure which, because Ben couldn’t be standing here and smiling at Ray like he had just walked into a church social, without considerable outside help.
“Our jobs are inherently dangerous, Ray. We both accept that.”
Ray snorted loudly and crossed his arms over his chest. “Oh, is that what they’re calling larceny and murder these days? A job?”
The light went out of Ben’s eyes then. “Self-defense is not murder. We don’t commit murder and you know it.”
