#dude is built like a tank any Pinkerton would be running for the hills

I love the idea of giant!Charles but I feel like he'd secretly hate it. He's a pretty shy guy, mostly keeps to himself and having all that attention wouldn't be good for him :( he already is pretty tired of the discrimination he gets for being both black and native american, so to him being fucking Huge to everybody else just gives people more reason to hate him, though the gang is never discriminatory toward him (and Bill and Micah would be too scared to be racist little assholes towards him. He'd probably have the desire to step on them or yeet the both of them into oblivion but only avoids it for the sake of the gang, plus he's the kind to only kill when it's absolutely necessary)

I feel like Arthur would be there to comfort him the whole way until he got back to normal, just talk with him, do anything to make him feel like he doesn't stick out like a sore thumb amongst everybody else. Hosea would be there, offering advice and support and trying to find a way to change him back. Sean would be cracking jokes, no doubt including ones about his height, one hits a bit too close to home but he apologizes and sings a cheerful little song to make him feel better, to which everyone else joins in, and Charles just kinda hums with them after a while. John and Sadie are there too, just kind of sitting on his knees and patting them in tune with the song, sort of looking at Charles and silently coaxing him into joining in. And Arthur sits on his shoulder of course, telling Charles about the adventures he's had while being away from camp, and Charles smiles when he hears Arthur sing along with the song, so close to his ear where he can hear his gravelly voice and detect the smile on his face without even being able to see him (Charthur, anyone?)

He would be SUCH a gentle giant too, handling everyone with care, asking them if they're alright, if he needs to adjust his fingers or his grip on them. He's quiet and stealthy, too, so he'd be good at concealing himself from possible onlookers. And he'd have a very good view of the area surrounding camp and his sheer presence would make anyone want to run for the hills so guard duty would be a cinch. no one wants to wake a sleeping giant so he probably could do it sleeping too (much to Sean's jealousy)

(P.S. his survival skills would also make him a very adept tiny)
