3. Arrival
CW: Mention of dehumanization, institutionalized slavery, "it" in reference to a person, not much else in this chapter
Abigail Evelyn Cooper eyed the large wooden crate in her parlor with a dubious glare.
Her son-in-law had phoned that morning to tell her to expect a delivery sometime in the early afternoon. He hadn’t said what, only that it was a gift. She’d scoffed; men like Lyle Grisham didn’t give gifts without reason unless her daughter coaxed him into it to maintain the facade of goodwill between them. Whatever Lyle was sending over, Abigail was resigned to do as she’d always done: donate the undoubtedly lavish, useless item to charity.
She wasn’t prepared for the large black truck that pulled up to her curb or for the two burly men who emerged with an enormous box hefted between them. With all the grace of a rockslide, they entered and dropped the cargo into the first available room—tracking in dirt and dust with every step—while a third shoved a clipboard in her face requesting a signature for confirmation of delivery please-and-thank-you-very-much. Abigail bristled, but signed the damned document if only to get them out of her house. The man handed her a crisp, cream-colored envelope in exchange and murmured a rehearsed ‘Have a nice day,’ before the lot of them peeled away from the drive.
Abigail shut the door in a huff. What a pity that polite chatter and courtesy were a thing of the past.
Sliding a finger beneath the envelope’s flap, she extracted the letter inside to find a card bearing an insignia embossed in gold. She’d seen that logo before…
She shook her head to get it back on track and flipped it open to read the large-printed text inside:
“Congratulations on your purchase of Combination Domestic/Caregiver Model 049113-C47! Please refer to the documentation and literature enclosed in your package for general care and arrival instructions. If you encounter any issues, please contact our Customer Service line. Thank you!”
Beneath the printed words was Sarah’s looping handwriting. An olive branch, of course.
“If Whispering Willows and an in-home nurse are off the table, this is the next best thing. X.O. Sarah and Lyle.”
Abigail stuffed the letter back into its envelope. Yes, both the senior home and the medical warden were off the table. “I’m not an invalid, for God’s sake!” she said aloud.
The lines in her brow deepened as another thought tacked itself on: ‘Not yet at least.’
Frowning, she examined the crate, fully expecting to have to ask Sophia next door if one of her sons could come over to pry it open. Luckily the heavy metal latches securing the lid had been removed by the delivery men. Only a pair of barrel bolts at each end were left.
A strange dread filled her belly. The box was so large; what could the contents possibly be? Her hands shook slightly as she disengaged the locks and lifted the lid… only to drop it with a shriek as a pair of sapphire eyes squinted up at her from within.

While I was rewatching this Hannibal's scene, I had a rare feeling, like I was dreaming an old dream, but I couldn't remember it. Few days later, the reference came into my mind.
Hannibal, S01E07: Sorbet / Twin Peaks, S01E03: Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer

I think what's so interesting about Gideon as a narrator at the anniversary dinner is the fact that there's clearly tensions that she's just not picking up on because she's only there to eat a dessert.
But these people are all the immensely powerful leaders of the Houses and consider themselves to be in competition for literal godlike powers and the favour of the emperor.
There's so many little snippets that are potentially intriguing: why is Teacher trying to prime the Ninth to consider the Fifth a threat? Why are the Third and the Sixth "sizing each other up like prizefighters"? The Fifth absolutely knew what they were doing when they sat the teen heads of the opposing cults near each other.
Through Gideon's lens, Magnus' speech is a little awkward jokey thing. But...the seneschal of the House that is known to be actively trying to absorb another House is saying it's such a shame they're all so remote from each other and what do they all have in common (and it's so quiet you "could have heard a hair flutter to the floor") - that had to feel a bit different to people who aren't Gideon.
Palamedes' is dissecting the meaning of "Master Warden" and at one point compares it to a prison warden. 'Dulcinea' asking about whether Magnus and Abigail have children is perhaps less small talk and rather more pointedly political. Harrow's apparently stilted conversation with Protesilaus is clearly her actually probing his limitations like he's a bad Chat GPT-run chatbot.
And then 'Dulcinea' tells Gideon she liked the dinner because it was "useful". In her typical "I never lied to you" way, Cyth wasn't lying when she said Abigail had to die because of her hobby - Abigail Pent let loose on the Facility would have risked blowing Cyth's cover sky high. But what does a Canaan House look like where after the dinner party, the Fifth go down to the facility, get a key, and survive to continue their 'the Houses are going to get along or else' agenda? We've seen Fifth House soft power on a smaller scale in HTN: and it looks like inviting a teenager round for coffee, lulling her into a false sense of security with small talk, and then physically preventing her from leaving the room until she does what you want, while smiling the entire time. A series of little coffee chats could probably have led to a lot of cooperation in Canaan House, one way or another.
Gideon jokes about Silas marrying Ianthe because of their similar colour pallete, but it does raise the fact that there seems to be some tension around the Third, its succession, and the *point* of Ianthe. Why is Silas openly saying Ianthe should have died at birth? Combined with Judith's comments in the Cohort Intelligence Files about succession on the Third, it feels like there's something else being said here that Gideon isn't picking up on.
And of course, Harrow wasn't the only one desperate to become a Lyctor because her con was unsustainable. Presumably at some point Corona and Ianthe would be expected to marry, or at least take on more separate roles as Corona prepared to take over the throne and Ianthe was funneled off elsewhere. At some point, their package deal would have become unsustainable and Corona's cover would have been blown. But much as Harrow wants to become a Lyctor so she can reveal the state of the Ninth without repercussions, Ianthe is probably in part motivated to become a Lyctor for the same reason. Because otherwise, what would Ianthe's expected role have been? Amidst the suggestion of anxiety about the Idan succession, the dinner party also presents the fact that the reason Abigail and Magnus' infertility isn't a succession crisis for the ruling family of the Fifth is that Abigail's younger brother dutifully married in his early 20s and had kids. We know there are branch families in Ida - Babs is from one. He may be a prince, but he's not treated well, and you do get the sense that the stakes to stay in power in Ida are high.
We don't learn anything about the political situation in the Houses themselves during HTN or NTN, but in the wake of Canaan House, you have to suspect there are a number of tensions and concerns.
#the locked tomb#tlt meta#Is Ianthe's “going to see a man about a queen” seeing to the political situation back home in Ida?#Which must have been devastated by her ascension and Corona's apparent death?

Theories I do not believe in
The Trolley Theory
To those who do not know this theory, it is essencially that during the train station robbery in chapter 4 when they fleed on a trolley and crash, that the knock to Dutch's head made him crazy/made him worse. I do not believe in this theory.
Really the only evidence I have heard for this theory is "everything went wrong after that!" Exactly! Everything went wrong! Late chapter four is generally when a lot of this starts to fall apart, it is only like four missions before Banking an old American art and it is the time when the noose really begins to tighten around the gang's neck, putting Dutch under a lot os stress.
Pretty much after this mission nothing goes right, that just means the stress is getting worse while doubt is as well and Dutch is pushed more and more into Micah's arms while he is breaking more and more under pressure. I feel like the trolley theory is just a cheap excuse for something way more complicated.
Abigail is the second rat
The title pretty much explains it, that Abigail was a second rat other than Micah and it is almost so dumb that I don't want to explain why I don't believe in it. She would be putting her family in a lot of unnessesary danger, literally killing Hosea whom she saw a father figure?? Why would Ross hunt her and John down in rdr1 if he knows she is cooperative? And finally, they did not need a second rat. Arthur is very right when he says they have gotten sloppy, they are leaving traces everywhere.
Not to mention the only "evidence" of this theory is a comment Dutch made while suffering a mental health crisis and was not meant to be taken seriously but rather show how broken he was.
Uncle is red harlow
Red Harlow is a character is Rockstars earliest red dead game, red dead revolver, he has a lot of mysteriousness surrounding him similarly to how Uncle has a lot of mystery to him.
Very simply why I don't believe this, R* has confirmed that it is in another universe (though the red dead redemption universe has a story of red harlow), and the little we know about the two characters don't match up.
John isn't Jack's son
This theory comes from the fact that a lot of the gang members slept with Abigail before she slept with John and the fact that grown Jack has Javier's mustache. When did mustache styles become genetic? Just like question.
Also in rdr1 Jack can get mistaken for John about 10 times I believe, so yeah. It would also kind of ruin John's entire character arc.
Molly was pregnant
Some say this would explain why she was so desperate to talk to Dutch, but also in chapter 3 or 2 Molly literally says Dutch has not touched her in weeks, meaning if she was pregnant she would at least be somewhat showing in chapter 6 which was months later.
Hosea gave Arthur TB
This is a theory that Arthur did not get TB from Thomas Downes but rather Hosea whom we know to have a lung disease.
I think this would be something so massive to the story and have such a big impact that rockstar would at the very least hint at it, but they don't, it comes from just people researching TB and saying "technically it is possible!" Yeah, um great but Arthur literally says "I know I ruined you lives, I suffer for it every day" to Ms Downes, and "I got it beating a man" to sister.
I also believe that Hosea has lung cancer, but that is more of a personal belief than anything. My biggest issue with Hosea giving Arthur TB is that it is just too big to have gone unnoticed if it was the truth.

au where the third or the fifth consume the ninth? either after the creche massacre or after harrow's parents kill themselves. i think a gideon who like. got poached by abigail and magnus would be very interesting, as well as a much younger harrow clocking the whole tridentarri situation
i already have aus like this with quinn! theres two: the first is where the fifth annexes the ninth, but harrow cannot stand the fact that her house is being integrated and essentially runs away with gideon in tow to an old station orbiting the fifth. i dont think she would take annexation easy and despite adoptive 5th parents being a popular fandom concept im pretty apathetic about it, so i think gideon would have conflicts over staying with harrow versus wanting to start a "new" life vs acting like a street cat to being fostered
the second concept i call Annex the ninth, which i have already talked about before so ill copypaste it under the cut
the sixth is annexing the ninth due to their outstanding problem of a low genetic diversity count- even if the ninth is made of old people (which the sixth wouldnt have known about until its too late) vat births DO EXIST! which is a strong factor for why they might get it second! btw in this au you have to assume harrow cannot run away like she did on the 5th because the sixth likes to keep their population count on lockdown, and also they really want to cooperate with the reverend daughter and are hoping some inpatient time will fix her. it does not fix her. ANYWAY.
in this time gideon and harrow are around 15-16, which makes cam and pal around 18. this all culminates in gideon having a GREAT TIME‼️ she has FRIENDS she can do SWORDS and she visits harrowhark nonagesimus at the end of the day, who is having an awful time ❤️ shes bedridden in the medical ward for at least a full year because shes so fucking mad about the situation that she keeps trying to attack people about it. dont even let her near palamedes shes going to try and kill him. the only reason why she hasnt done so much destruction yet is because they put one of those flesh disintegrating barriers around her and have all their bones nicely under lock

modern Marston family hcs please 🤲
I think of them every single day (this also turned into a lot of johnigail headcannons)
Modern Marston Family hcs
• Abigail is one of those moms who paints their baby bump as a pumpkin for Halloween
• John went through an emo phase when he was a high schooler. he also got a lot of stick’n’poke tattoos during that phase so he has randomly placed tattoos of wolfs and knifes and other things he thought was cool at the time. his hair was also longer then so he braided it a lot
• Abigail was in foster care when she was a kid but eventually got adopted by an older couple when she was like, eleven
• Abigail was a weird mix of a Lana Del Ray girl and a Katy Perry girl in high school
• John and Abigail met bc Arthur and John were walking Cooper and he got off the leash and he ran away so Arthur and John split up to look for him but Abigail ended up finding him and running into John first and they hit it off
• John will always continue to get stick’n’pokes so that means him and Abigail have each other a lot in the early stages of their relationship
• John only had like two girlfriends before Abigail and they didn’t last that long so when him and Abigail made out for the first time his little brain exploded
• Abigail worked at a gas station and would take smoke breaks but it was really her and John hanging out behind the gas station while he smoked (she’d smoke every once in a while but mostly it would just be him)
• Abigail got a second job as a waitress and John would go to the restaurant at least once a week and would order something expensive and just say to put it on Dutch’s tab and she’d stand there and giggle (Dutch was livid when he found out)
• John took Abigail to see a few horror movies in theaters bc he though she’d get scared and cling to him but she ended up liking them a lot more than he did
• Abigail took some of John’s shirts from his emo phase so now she has a few of those stupid wolf shirts and a few emo band shirts that she’s only ever listened to in John’s car
• John and Abigail “ran away” their first summer of being together -> they went on a little roadtrip and came back after a few weeks bc they were running out of money
• John tried teaching Abigail how to drive stick shift (Hosea had to take over for him bc John kept getting frustrated and John didn’t want Arthur around Abigail)
• John and Abigail would also smoke weed together once in a while
• John couldn’t hold a job when he was younger bc he either didn’t want to show up or would just forget so he’d often pawn things to get money but it went from small things like watches to bigger things like lawnmowers. the one time he got caught it was bc he was buying Abigail a designer bag for her birthday. so he got held in the police department and Miss Grimshaw gave him A Talk about how if he wanted to be good to Abigail, he had to actually had to get a job and keep it
• John did end up getting a job at a smoke shop and after his first few paychecks he took Abigail to a nice restaurant
• ok so Abigail was trying to go to community college but at the time she was getting ready to go she got pregnant with Jack
• Abigail and John did almost end up breaking up after they found out bc they got into a fight but after they cried together and talked to Miss Grimshaw they didn’t
• John was renting an apartment at the time Abigail got pregnant so she moved in with him a few months into her pregnancy. they both knew that eventually they’d have to get a bigger apartment once Jack started getting bigger
• they didn’t pay for daycare so they’d drop Jack off with Tilly or Arthur for a few hours while they worked
• Abigail did get hit with some depression for the first few years when Jack was born bc she was like 18/19, her and John were both working multiple jobs, Jack was a fussy baby and there were so many changes with her body and mind all at once. Ik she was crying when Jack cried bc she didn’t know what to do (in modern and canon)
• John did notice this ofc and tried to get advice from whoever he could. him and Abigail did get into a few fights during like the first year of Jacks life but he would try to take her out on a date night if he had the money and time
• Jack was like, a relatively happy kid. when he was younger, at least. like he had a few friends in pre-k and kindergarten through like fifth grade, but it was only three or four friends. they grew apart a little bit and one of them moved away and then after sixth grade they kind of stopped hanging out altogether. Abigail cried about it.
• I know deep down in my heart that John is a girl dad. I might be delusional abt it but it makes me giggle
• the first time John referred to Abigail as his wife she almost cried
• I think there’s a six year age-gap between Jack and his sister. I think they’d be closer in canon than they are in modern. they also were closer when they were younger
• also by the time Abigail was pregnant with their second kid they could barely afford the apartment so they bought a trailer. they weren’t really happy about it but it was better than being homeless
• but while Jack and his sister were young Abigail took as many pictures as she could and printed them all out and put them in a photo album
• by the time the Marston daughter was born John straightened out a bit more
• like John drinks and smokes in the house but he makes sure that the kids are fed and put to bed before he does
• John was a little bit drunk during one of Jacks birthday parties but he held it together mostly and played with Jack if his head didn’t hurt too bad
• John can’t chaperone field trips though bc he gets pissed off at the teachers
• Jacks first Halloween costume was a dog. Abigail was a cat and John just wore one of his old wolf shirts that barely fit him from his emo phase. they did the same thing for the Marston daughters first Halloween but she was also a cat
• I just know that when the Marston daughter lost her first tooth she was five and it was bc her and Jack were having a pillow fight that she started and he hit her in the face a little too hard and her tooth fell out (it was already loose but it scared both of them)
• John used to secretly really love reading to both the kids so they’d fall asleep and missed it more as they grew up
• and they do end up getting a small house for the four of them when Jack is twelve (like in the game) and that's also when John and Abigail officially get married
• John eventually did get a job at an auto shop but would do like. Uber Eats if he needed to
• Abigail was able to get online classes and gets a job in marketing or something but did make money by crocheting/knitting baby clothes and selling them on Etsy
• the Marston daughter had a biting problem
• she also did soccer in grade school but when she got to middle school and high school she did dog walking and babysitting
• Jack was like 🧍♂️shy in his teen years. he wanted to do clubs and stuff but he was just wicked anxious. he did do theater club but he was a stage hand. he was also in a book club for a little bit but the other kids in it were annoying.
• I also know his ass got bullied in middle school. he did get into like. one fight in high school that he somehow managed to win.
• he didn’t have a lot of friends. when some kids would try to talk to him he’d think they were gonna end up bullying him and just wouldn’t respond much to them
• he always ate his lunch in the hallway
• the Marston daughter also doesn’t have a lot of friends but she’s got like, two that’ve stuck with her since first grade. she gained one more when she went into middle school and an additional one in high school. Jack was a little jealous but he did begin hanging out with one of her friends older brother occasionally
• Abigail packed both her kids lunches but stopped for Jack when he was in high school bc he just started taking a bag of chips and like. a juice box with him to school. Abigail would still like to make him lunch but he has protested about it multiple times
• Jack always wanted a treehouse when he was a little kid
• it was Abigail's idea to get Rufus for Jack
• Jack still reads westerns
• the Marston daughter also got bullied in school but was mean back to the bullies
• Abigail doesn't have her own pajamas, she just takes Johns
• Jack got a job mowing his neighbors lawns
• John still gets a little lightheaded when Abigail wears a swimsuit
• when Abigail and John first got together he made a CD for her with a mix of their favorite songs and songs that reminded him of her and she somehow still has it but John cringes a little whenever she plays it
• John and Abigail didn't have a honeymoon immediately after they got married but went on one a few years later out to like, Italy or smthn
• the Marston daughter has a habit of over explaining things and Jack has a habit of explaining almost nothing ever
• Jack always has headphones on or earbuds in
• Jack took a creative writing class and it did help a little bit but he was very anxious for most of the class
• the Marston daughter still has her old Barbie dolls. she doesn't play with them but she just looks at them sometimes
• sometimes Jack and John will somehow fall asleep in the same room or watching tv together
• John did teach Jack to hunt
