Ma squeezes his hand, her face pale and reddened around the eyes, her grip shaky and weak. She shudders with a cough. “You— you’re a rotten man, John Marston, you left us again.” She sounds like she might cry, and her eyes are unfocused. “You promised you wouldn’t leave us again.”
Jack says nothing. Pa has been dead for years now, and judging by Ma’s delirium in her sickness, she’ll be joining him soon.
As he squeezes back, he chooses not to correct her. She’s out of it, confused and suffering, and him confusing her further won’t help matters at all. “I know,” he murmurs instead, quiet, feeling like he’s wearing shoes that are two sizes too big. “I’m sorry.”
(Or: Five times someone mistook Jack Marston for his father, and the one time they didn’t.)

i heard high honor jack yell out “i got nothing to live for anyway, let’s go!” in the middle of a shootout and had to stop and sit there, devastated, for at least a few minutes
the fact that jack marston goes from being a happy and bubbling child, to a depressed and openly suicidal adult is just… *starts crying*

Javier - musician (in a band but more often then not is doing solo performances)
Trelawny - all ages Magician/street performer
Pearson - office canteen cook
Abigail - barista
John - goes from job to job until becoming buying his own hunting shop and gets to go hunting often
Dutch - used to be a generally unliked politician by the people (aside from a cult following) but quit to become a youth group leader essentially grooming children into his ideals
Hosea - Uni Professer who would've been fired years ago for his actions but students adore him and somehow get good results
Arthur - a small art store owner with few yet very recurring customers
Sadie - hunter out far away from cities (buys from John's place and goes with him hunting)
Charles - farmer far from cities too
Uncle - FIRED UNEMPLOYED BUM
Bill - running a construction company
Kieran - stable hand
Jack - writer (1914) but works for in his mother's bar sometimes for extra cash
Karen - door to door saleswoman
Tilly - fashion designer
Mary-beth - a writer too
Grimshaw - bar owner who treats her favourite customers like family
Reverend - guess it's a clue in the name
Micah - gun shop assistant manager
Molly - ballet teacher (her LOVES designing the costume and stories)

seeing theories of jack marston joining ww1 makes me giggle because. i promise you, if anyone from the government tries to tell jack marston what he is and isn’t doing, they are getting shot.
in fact, they’re getting lassoed and dragged on the back on his horse.

i caved embarrassingly fast and made a side blog just for jack marston. if my deranged rambling about him interests and/or entertains you, there is now a spot where i plan to do so Exclusively, and at marginally more insane word counts than before. it barely exists and i’m already twitching at the idea of yelling about how sad he makes me, so expect further silliness to follow

idk if you’ve talked about this already but what do you think the name of John and Abigail’s daughter was?
Ironically, at some point I was gonna ask this as a general question bc it's something I'll have to include in my fic later on.
Susanna seems to be a relatively popular hc. It's after the song John sings in the epilogue and also the name of John and Abigail Adams' (who all the marstons names are inspired by) deceased daughter. I like this one, but I'm pretty sure there are already fics out there that use it so I don't wanna copy that.
There are some Arthur related ones, but I really dislike those. I don't think John, who can't even talk ab Arthur, would name his daughter something like Morgan or Artis. I like to think Abigail gave her the middle name Beatrice to honor Arthur indirectly though.
Sorry I didn't really answer ur question lol. But if anyone has any hcs for the marston daughters name I could use in my fic PLEASE lmk bc I can't think of any.

His whole world screeches to a halt, not unlike when Uncle Dutch’s phonograph stops in the middle of a song. The usual camp chatter is absent all at once as Jack, frozen where he stands, attempts to process what he’s looking at.
Aunt Mary-Beth’s piercing shriek splits the air, and a second later, Momma is grabbing him and holding him close, pressing his face to her skirts in an attempt to block his view.
Just a second too late.
(Or: Several events from Jack Marston’s childhood he doesn’t remember, and one thing he won’t ever be able to forget.)

Can yall imagine Bonnie MacFarlane and everyone reading the news in 1914 with the biggest article being like "SAVAGE SON OF JOHN MARSTON MURDERS RETIRED RENOWED PINKERTON AGENT ROSS IN COLD BLOOD . CURRENTLY ON THE LOOSE" and being like oh damn
I know for certain those newspapers would NOT of given him mercy and called him a crazy deranged uncivilized child of radicalisation indoctrinated into an outdated life of outlaws in the day and age trynna paint him like he just killed a senile old man who was only doing his job to try and bring society forward and safer

The first thing I did after beating rdr1 as John and moving on to Jack was, go back into the house and look around, not seeing Abigail in the kitchen stirring her pot which now sits untouched on the stove shattered my heart, seeing uncles room empty made me sad, then I went into John’s room and looked around, it was so quiet, so empty, I wanted jack to just lay on his parents bed and mourn, to grieve properly, but he couldn’t, I wonder how many nights jack sat on the couch waiting and wishing his mama would walk out of the kitchen and scold him for bringing his muddy boots into the house, how sad jack must have been when the farm became uncared for.

Since Jack's real name is John Marston Jr, do you guys think that when Abigail yells through Beechers Hope "JOHN MARSTON!" that there is a split second where both John and Jack freeze up to see if she will add a "JR!"?
Jack hopes she doesn't, John hopes she does.

y'all ever think abigail exclusively calls jack 'jack' when his name is john marston jr because she regretted naming him after his father when john was such a pos for so much of jack's life
