rdr2 except no side characters died, dutch didnt go crazy cornwall and the pinkertons werent looking for them and micah completely mellowed out to nothing more than a mouthy shit BUT arthur still got tb…
imagine if it was properly acknowledged, but they try to continue as normal in the hopes he recovers with the amount of extra rest hes started to have. and the extra rest starts to become longer and more constant as he worsens. the hope fades into worry, into either acceptance or grief.
eventually…they start to look for somewhere warmer to camp, nicer and quieter. john gives arthur his tent, and hosea gets him a better bed. dutch makes the tent look more cosy and arthur-like. for three days, the women or dutch, john and hosea are constantly with him. other members come to speak to him during the day, saying their goodbyes in a way. on the third night, hosea tells miss grimshaw to fetch john and dutch.
they sit with him, dutch holding his head and hosea stroking his hair. john sits with them, not knowing what to do with himself. for an hour, dutch and hosea tell some stories about when arthur was young, all his best ones. the ones that made him happy. arthur barely responds, but he looks right at them and makes no effort to move away or stop listening. then, hosea whispers that he can go to sleep now. theyll see him again soon.
and he does.

Whatever you do, don’t think about how Dutch knew he was wrong but still chose his stupid stubborn pride over Arthur while Arthur took his last dying breath hoping Dutch at least realized in the end that he wasn’t the rat and would try and right his wrongs.
Whatever you do, don’t think about how when Dutch has completely lost his mind he hears and sees Arthur everywhere and tries to touch him or talk to him but never seems to be able to get close enough or loud enough to reach Arthur.
Whatever you do, don’t think about the only last thing holding Dutch’s sanity together was probably that he thought Arthur had somehow made it off that cliff and got better because he knew Arthur was the strongest son of a bitch out there and that when he heard Micah confirm Arthur had truly died and Dutch had been living in denial and delusions that sanity finally snapped.
Whatever you do, Font think about how the the trolley accident probably is what truly made Dutch’s grasp slip. Yeah, he was always paranoid and narcissistic but he knew that, and was originally grateful for Hisea and Srtgut keeping him in reality. After Blackwater, he felt ashamed and guilty and that's why he felt the need to prove himself as right in ways so badly but then Hisea died and Micah was whispering around, and BAM! Now the fucker has a slow brain bleed and all sense of reason at that point are bets off.
Just don't.… don't go there. Leave that oath untraveled.

Therapy isnt enough I need some kind of fic or comic or smth where dutch realises how mean he was to arthur - like not just realising how much he fucked everyone over - specifically how he hurt his boy so much and even left him to die alone. The arthur that would do anything for him. I need his heart to physically shatter when he thinks of all the mean things he said like “oh but, arthur needs to rest” etc or “I never had a son” LIKE I NEED HIS WORLD TO FEEL LIKE ITS ENDING UGH

Do y’all ever wonder if Dutch and Hosea knew they were going to raise an absolute UNIT like Arthur? Like he was once a skinny and rambunctious 14 year old street orphan and they took a chance on him and fed him as he grew into a fucking BEAST who is arguably bulkier than the two of them combined, and has become the main brawn of the gang.

This is basically just an Arthur Physique appreciation post but GOD DAMN.

(Yes, that Arthur's not real. And that's Dutch reading The American Inferno.)
