rdr2 x autistic reader headcanons

saw someone else do this but i wanted to give my headcanons too! enjoy tehe... includes arthur, john, dutch, and charles!

gn!reader + no warnings / fluff

arthur morgan

arthur is so patient and understanding with you

from the moment you met him, you never felt the need to mask around him because he never questioned your behaviors or belittled you for them

if any problems ever arised, arthur would always be quick to come to your defense

hes very careful with you; he handles you like he's holding a butterly. not because he thinks youre fragile or incapable, but because he cares for you too much and never wants to hurt you

he also knows that youre sensitive to things and will take mental notes

if he sees that you cover your ears when something loud happens, he'll be sure to be quiet around you

if you express that you don't like how a certain food feels, he'll start bringing other options along to make sure you're eating

he's not very good at being upfront with his emotions, and you can't always catch onto his hints which ends up with you being confused

but he's trying to break that habit

all in all he's a very understanding partner who prioritizes you above all

john marston

lets be real john is also autistic

youre both very understanding of each others needs and its nice to be able to completely be yourself around your partner

in a relationship he can be very touchy sometimes, but he can recognize when you dont want to be touched. if hes unsure, he'll ask

he will wait or ask for permission to do pretty much anything

"can i kiss you?" "can i hug you?" "is it alright if we hold hands?"

hes definitely awkward but he just needs the confirmation

he is veryyy blunt but to you its a good thing

it makes me feel like neither of you have to worry about if the other is beating around the bush or something because both of you say whats on your mind LOL

both of you are trying to figure out this relationship thing together

from an outside perspective, people might think the two of you are moving really slow, but for both of you its a perfect pace

dutch van der linde

dutch is your biggest fan when you start infodumping

he will listen to you speak about whatever for days on end, and you'll do the same with him as he talks about whatever philosophical tangent he has for the day

hes so infatuated with you its crazy

you will finish your infodumping tangent and he will scoop you up in his arms and go,"you're so beautiful/handsome, you know that?"

like oookaaayyy huhehehehehhehhshsh

he will SPOIL you with things related to your special interest. anything he sees that he knows you'll like, he'll snatch it up so quick to give it to you

he'll definitely boast about you to the other members

"they're so INTELLIGENT and HARD WORKING...perhaps the rest of you should take a note or two"

he lets you fidget with his fingers because you like his rings

he makes sure that your shared tent is perfectly up to your standards

the feeling of the blanket overwhelms you? suddenly hes sending arthur out to fetch a new one

he definitely pampers you a lot and sometimes it might feel suffocating at times but not bc you dislike it, you just need a moment to recharge

you'll tell him you need a moment to yourself and he'll oblige

charles smith

the two of you love parallel play omg

you two will be completely silent while he makes arrows and you partake in one of your hobbies but its so comforting to both of you

charles will always be the first to notice when you start to get overstimulated, so he'll tell the others to quiet down, give you space, or whatever else you need to calm yourself

hes kind of overprotective of you, so sometimes you'll have to reassure him that youre fine

he just cares about you more than anything

now that im thinking about it charles is also probably autistic

he's usually very quiet but with you he'll never shut up because he knows that you'll listen and show genuine interest

he will craft things for you to fidget with omfg

he'll notice that youre very antsy with your hands or legs and one day you'll come back to your tent and see a small handmade doll sitting on your bed

"did you make this for me?"

"i noticed you play with your fingers a lot"

he's genuinely the sweetest ever and he will just have heart eyes for you all the time

[gemini-forest]

The more I look at John Marston the more I'm like "He's autistic". I don't care if it's canon or fanon it's real to me.

Saw that bitch whittling a thing of wood in the morning, was gone for like half the day, came back BITCH WAS STILL WHITTLING AND IN THE SAME SPOT

I rub my hands.

Okay so OTP as in “one true pairing” is hard for me because I multiship hardcore so let me just… list what comes to my mind. No real order. I will yap why I like them.

Common theme: I like my Yaoi toxic bro.

Bill x Kieran:

- could absolutely see a complex story about Kieran being accepted and Bill trying to be a better man.

- Kieran doesn’t fix bill. Kieran is just a motivating factor for bill to get off his ass and fix himself. Kieran doesn’t feel comfortable until bill makes an effort to apologize for treating him poorly, and nearly gelding him, and physically harassing him, and etc.

- Kieran is uncertain but happy to be given some kindness by someone. Bill and Kieran are both low in the social hierarchy of the gang to me. I can see Kieran standing up for Bill when people give him shit. Kieran isn’t a coward, he stands up for himself constantly, why not Bill? In turn Bill sticks up for Kieran too.

- they shake hands on loving Brown Jack.

- bill and Kieran look adorable side by side in art. Tall skinny man x tall wide man.

- but yeah also they could be so dysfunctional and unhealthy and that’s valid too.

- oh also two autistics bonding over being autistic.

Bill x Javier x Micah (this can also be split up into the component parts).

- I have made many posts talking about them in the past already so just read those

(Link doesn’t work so just search on my page: #fags of a feather )

- but to put it simply: they are a rock paper scissor trio and they balance each other’s toxic flaws but also emphasize other toxic flaws.

John x Abigail:

- I actually don’t have a lot to say I just really like the rdr2 and rdr1 story and the Marston family story makes me cry… oh man.

- I love t4t John and Abigail! It makes so much sense…

- Abigail loving John not “regardless” of his flaws but loving him for his stupidity and autism and short comings and flaws and talents and skills and and and and.

- Abigail finding someone who does care and love her deep down. Her and John early in rdr2 makes me so sad because UGAHSHHJSHS JUST STICK THROUGH IT IT GETS BETTER, ABIGAIIIIL 😭

Arthur x Micah:

- my first rdr2 ship in this fandom! I love it and have a lot of nostalgia.

- I shockingly don’t ship it as hard anymore because I find Dutch x micah or micah x bill or micah x anyone rlly is so much more toxic and I love conflict in my stories.

- John being able to wrangle in micah. Micah being able to rule up arthur. It’s a balance of chaos and control and I love it.

- they have contrasting color pallets and look cute together! High honor blue arthur and red micah. Low honor arthur (red theme??) and micah is also spectacular.

- I also just… like seeing Micah dominated. Um. Yeah big strong Arthur. (Rope Charles in and make it even better).

Arthur x Charles:

- I love them. That’s all.

- the ship is a bit too domestic and “flawless” for my taste but I get why others enjoy it. I see them more as just friends who are bonded in a way that is hard to achieve. They’re silent and at peace together and solid as a team.

Lenny x Sean (x Kieran?)

- MACSUMMERS IS A CUTE SHIP NAME OKAY…

- I think Lenny, Sean, and Kieran are all on a level below the main crew of men (seniority?). They all bond and are friends in their little ways. I love every single interaction between them.

- this would assume Sean lightens his hazing of Kieran and that Lenny is more outwardly friendly to Kieran (I don’t recall Lenny having any interactions with Kieran, which could be seen as tense neutrality to Kieran).

- so yawwwwwn anyways um… give these young men some missions together, let them get drunk, let them have fun and be boys. Let the men makeout sloppy while drunk and wake up not remembering they did that.

- also just saying I think these men would enjoy one or two sexual explorations of their identity and how else do you explore if you’re gay than politely asking your best friends to bone you.

Sean: “what’s in it for me, ey?”

Lenny: “well I don’t know. money I guess. Do you want me to treat you like a paid saloon girl?”

Sean: “hehe, uhh. No..”

Uncle x Pearson:

- this came from nsfw Twitter jokes. It’s not very serious but it cracks me up imagining them having sexual tension over a grill.

- uncle will make use of his majority toothless gums and *persuade* Pearson to give him more servings of stew.

Karen x Molly:

- read it in a fic and saw art. I think the tragic women would be cool as a toxic hate fuck situationship. Two women sad and angry at the world and getting their anger and desire for human connection out through… stuff.

- they have girl talks and smoke and drink and bond a little. They have an understanding of each other. Karen tells Molly Dutch isn’t worth it. Karen does feel great sadness when Molly never does move on and that’s the death of her. Karen too in a way. She mourns everyone who had died and it kills her inside and out.

Micah x Dutch 💋💋💋💋

- now THIS is my OTP out of all of rdr2.

- oh man idk if I can capture it… just okay all of rdr2 and come back to me. They are so toxic and tragic and evil and flawed and complex.

- Skibiborg on Twitter is actively making me gnaw and love this ship more and more with every post from them.

- micah is such a soggy sad man with daddy issues and Dutch is such a man willing to accept boot kissing but also lightly manipulate people. Dutch is so mentally ill and so is micah and they make each other so much worse.

- them in the mountaaaiiiiins ♥️♥️♥️ Mt Hageeeen. Staying warrrrrm ♥️♥️

- Dutch and Micah could also have so many nsfw dynamics. Just saying… wyd when both are bottoms. Whoops.

Dutch x Hosea

- chat I have no words just play rdr2 and come back to me.

- play a comp of them talking and interacting in game and I will die happy.

- Hosea’s death and Dutch going even faster off the rails. Oh my god. Hosea talking about Dutch when they were younger men… “Old Girl” GUYS!!!! USAAHHSGHSHSHHH

Dutch x Colm:

- this one is a bit of a joke but I like it….. they are toxic. And such a brief situationship. Dutch was with Colm for like. One month. The little bit of time when Hosea and Bessie left and tried to be civilians, and Dutch was alone and needed someone to keep him warm in bed.

- chubby younger Dutch and skinny/fitter Colm. They would be amazing side by side. Red theme Dutch and green theme Colm. They complement each other.

- I love their yapping and dynamic. Colm is theatrical and sadistically teasing. Dutch is so long winded and yapping. Colm is so snipped and intentional in his words. NEITHER is the brains of their gang, Colm’s brother and Hosea are. Etc.

Karen x Sean

- this is less of a ship I actively seek out but it’s one that just makes me very happy.

- :”) Karen handles Sean’s crazy. Sean handles Karen’s attitude. They are a delightful situationship.

- PLEASE LET SEAN BE HAPPY AND CURL UP IN KAREN’S EMBRACE (and motorboat her because he absolutely would).

Kieran x Marybeth:

- they bring me immense joy. That’s all.

- They are too perfect and domestic for my taste. I love “happy ending AU” ideas but I could never draw or write it, it’s too lacking in murder and blood and drama for me.

- I love Kieran’s nervous body language but also how brave he is talking to her and initiating it. He would be a wonderful husband. He would be a wonderful student. I want to see someone talk about Kieran being taught to read by Mary Beth.

- marybeth please get freaky on this man. Please peg him.

- t4t marybeth and Kieran and I will lay down my life for you.

Arthur x Mary:

- not take (not at all) but I think Mary is neat.

- again… they are *tooooo domestic* for me. Maybe make them t4t and that will spice up things but yeah overall I don’t really seek them out.

- but I want to represent the Mary-likers and so I will put it on my list because I dislike Mary slander. She is a cutie.

- I melted for their cute date mission. I think arthur having the follow-through to help her and her situation is very honorable. They have a dynamic and unique social situation that makes my heart hurt.

- I could never enjoy a happy ending with them, but I can imagine the young love they had way back and how Arthur would get all red on the face and doodle her. Ugh. They’re so sweet… such darlings. I love myself some embarrassed Arthur.

-.- that’s a lot… okay woof. If I come up with more I will edit my post.

Yall tell me your otp and all their little details please
