“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”

Your impact on other people is bigger than you think. Someone still giggles when they think of that funny thing you said. Someone still smiles when they think of the compliment you gave them. Someone silently admires you. The advice you give has made a difference for people. The support and love you’ve offered others has made someone’s day. Your input and opinions have made someone think twice. You’re not insignificant and forgotten. Your existence makes a positive difference, whether you see it or not.

LADIES, its girls night!!

I think it's quite touching that Charles decided to bury Susan where he did.

It's overlooking the water, high up, with a beautiful view. You see, I think he noticed how often she would stand by the water wherever and whenever she could, just allowing herself a few minutes of calm. I think he saw how much those early mornings meant to her, coffee in hand, stealing a view before the rest of the world woke up.

So he gave her a place where she could watch the sunrise forever.

The LIFE in this piece, just wow 💖

My first piece for @thereddeadzine

[bonniearden]

Uncle Uncle Uncle 😌

Low-key starting to realise that Uncle might be my favourite gang member. He's down to Earth yet always something of an enigma. He's loyal despite everything and brave - yes, brave! He defends the Marstons and ends up giving his life so they can get away safely. He's hilarious, bafflingly upbeat and sees the deeper truths in everyone he meets. He's the only person in the gang except for Hosea who isn't afraid to call Dutch on his bullshit - in fact he actually does a better job than Hosea in this regard because he doesn't sugarcoat anything and just tells Dutch what he is, even if he essentially risked his life for it.

Yes, he's lazy. No, he isn't as much of a looker as some of the other gang members. No, he may not have the best missions.

But Uncle is my favourite.

Do you think Hosea ever met Isaac? And follow up question, do you think that what happened to Isaac is what made Hosea so desperate to find Jack in the Braithwaite Manor mission?

hey so I had NEVER thought about this before and now it lives in my mind rent free

Hosea @ anyone he's yelling at because he knows his giant son will defend him with 0 context: TELL 'EM ARTHUR

Arthur:

Do you think Arthur knew how much Hosea loved him? In a paternal way of course.

Yes, I think he did! Maybe he didn’t realize how much Hosea loved him or that Hosea’s love would have absolutely been unconditional, but I do think that he was aware of the fact that Hosea loved him like a son. 

Every interaction Arthur has with Hosea is positive, which is rare. Other than maybe Charles, Lenny, Mary Beth and Tilly, Hosea is the only character that has exclusively positive interactions with Arthur. Hosea, every time we see him with Arthur, is either being incredibly kind and gentle with him, doting on him, making him medicine or coffee, taking him fishing, telling Arthur that he’s smart, telling everyone around them that Arthur is smart or trying to help Arthur with his problems. When Arthur wakes him up in the middle of the night, Hosea always gently asks him what’s wrong. Hosea was in every way a kind and loving father to Arthur.

And Arthur knew that, he writes in his journal that he loves Hosea more than Dutch, that Hosea has always been nice and kind and loving to him and he loves Hosea back for it. When Hosea dies, the pain in Arthur’s voice is palpable while he screams. After his death, Arthur immediately takes on Hosea’s role of being the stable and grounded person who tries to save everyone and tries to keep Dutch in line. He takes that role on so well, displays Hosea’s traits so well that Dutch comments on it saying that Arthur reminds him of Hosea, that he sounds like Hosea.

Hosea’s influence on Arthur and his love for him is very clear, and Arthur’s affection for Hosea was also clearly laid out in the story. I think they both knew that they loved each other, but I think that Arthur’s low self esteem and self worth likely kept him from realizing just how much Hosea loved him and saw him as his own son.
