The mourning of Hosea Matthews.

I always think about how Dutch never got to mourn Hosea. He was swept away to Guarma and had to think about the survival of the gang. He didn’t have time to dwell on himself or how Hosea died. When he gets back to camp well… we all know how that happened. I wonder if in the night he goes by and visits his grave. Does he talk to it? Ask it for advice. Or is he too scared to even visit it?

im no better than a man😔😔😔😔

[eclaire-went-bam]

my headcanon is at least One member in the van der linde gang isn't going by their real name

cus ykn how most joined by attempting to steal from dutch or hosea or whatever

there had to be one that didn't trust the gang At All and told them a fake name and after they realised tha gang could be trusted, they were already wayyy too far in deep to suddenly go like "oh by the way i'm actually (name) aha awkwarrrrd ,,,,"

DUTCH AND HOSEA WERE FIGHTING DURING OUR POKER GAME. 😭 NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR FAILING MARRIAGE I'M TRYNA STEAL YOUR GANG MEMBERS' MONEY.

happy father’s day to Hosea Matthews.

also a happy father’s day to pre-rdr2 Dutch Van Der Linde.

[arthurmargon]

i was playing rdr2 and saw a camp interaction for the first time in horseshoe overlook in which molly tells dutch she loves him and this oily two-faced goblin says “thank you, my dear” ………. the silence after was resounding coupled with arthur’s big head staring right at them expressionlessly. i wish she’d gotten up from her cot and stabbed that pomade-dipped fucker in the neck with her sewing needle

We Need To Talk About Micah Bell

I want to get this off my chest: Theres a lot of talk about  “Micah Bell Bad” “Liking Micah is a red flag” “I HATE HIM” “I can’t respect people who like him” “I don’t see the appeal”

FULL STOP

You know what’s a red flag to me?  When people get sanctimonious about a FICTIONAL villain.

I like Micah. Do I love the actions of Micah Bell? (Genocide, femicide, grand larceny, sadism, misogyny, racism, arson, vandalism, etc) Clearly not--as a woman and an indigenous Chicana, I would never allow someone like Micah Bell in my presence, let alone speak to me. But lest we forget,  MICAH IS A FICTIONAL CHARACTER IN THE RED DEAD UNIVERSE I am allowed to appreciate a phenomenally written and complex villain like Micah,

I am allowed to think his long, blond, messy hair and voice are attractive! I am allowed to thank the stars for Peter Blomquist’s masterful acting which brought to life one of the most divisive characters of all time. I just hate seeing people enjoy things--hell, even write things for Micah--and get absolutely bombarded with “Well I’M a good person because I don’t like that character and you’re BAD if you disagree” I won’t stand for it when people will bend over backwards about how Dutch or even Arthur are inherently better characters to appreciate. UMMMMMMM????? DUTCH? Arthur is different, CORRECT, because he redeems himself at the end but lets not pretend he wasn’t a jerk for the beginning of the game (Downes, anyone?)

BUT DUTCH? The man who left Arthur to DIE ON THE GROUND? Who picked Micah above reason and his own chosen family that he knew for years? Dutch, the true villain of both Red Dead 1 and 2? No shade for liking him but lets call it like we see it--If Micah is so bad, lets keep it real and acknowledge everyone (EXCEPT TILLY, LENNY, AND BB KIERAN) were not perfect angels. Look--Y’all don’t have to agree, not even expecting you to--but I’m honestly so bored of people stanning other characters who are just as bad or worse than Micah Bell but don’t receive backlash for it? If people were condoning these actions in real life, yeah--I’d have a big f*cking issue with it, but fiction is meant to be a safe space, isn’t it?  If you don’t like something, I certainly won’t force you, but my goodness, leave the sanctimonious, holier-than-thou b*llshit at the door please. Its a videogame about thieves and murderous cowboys for goodness sake.

Clicked on this because of the Meowcah Bell mpreg breast feeding art? YOU’RE IN UNLUCK! It’s art for a fan fiction!!

Modern rdr2 headcanons

Ik this has been said before but John and Javier are in a garage band together. Sean keeps begging asking to be included and they keep saying no

“This is it. This song will make us famous” - John after every song they write (none of them make them famous because they genuinely suck and secretly Javier knows that)

Even in a modern universe, John and Abigail have relationship issues. She’s fully into him (despite her better judgement ofc) and he does like her, but won’t allow himself to be in a relationship with her. They hookup occasionally

Dutch is very popular on social media and definitely has a podcast. He has a Facebook and Twitter account. He got Snapchat once just to play with the filters but deleted it because he was scared someone would find out and judge him

Hosea downloaded Facebook and Twitter just so he could follow Dutch’s accounts and leave “hate” comments. They both know it’s a joke and Dutch says he hates it but he really doesn’t

Charles and Arthur are dating. Dutch and Hosea are very proud parents

They have a golden retriever and two cats and they live in a cabin in the woods somewhere
