dutch and hosea and how they met brings me so much joy. I am sure there can be other interpretations drawn but this is just one. It’s based off of some dialogue Hosea says around the campfire
Bonus: the traditional drawing

Guess what super niche longfic might be resurrected from the dead someday soon
I'll give you a hint:
For those unfamiliar with it, Salt is my Colm/Micah sugar daddy AU fic; dark, explicit and self-indulgent, 3/6 arcs complete. It's not for everyone, but might be for you if the tags give you a Cheshire grin.
In the 4th and upcoming arc, there will be Annabelle/Dutch, Dutch/Colm, Dutch/Micah and Owen(Colm's brother)/Micah, because creating a pentagram of interpersonal drama with a touch of murder was the way to get back into this fic after a six month hiatus. Also sexy sugar mama Annabelle who laughs like this is fun to write.
Have a smutty excerpt from part 21 after the cut ...
Colm liked having a pliant boy on his lap. His mouth lingered near Micah's neck and his rising heartbeat. He felt a childish desire to bite into his jugular and tear and chew his way down to his heart, as though Dutch's aforementioned concept of love would become less foreign if he'd held Micah's heart between his teeth.
His jaw snapped in the air when Dutch stood up from the chair.
"May I see?" Dutch asked, bending his neck like when he'd adressed Annabelle, but walking closer when Colm didn't bite.
Feeling the effects of the strong beer in how slowly he thought, Colm's mind dripped from his own empty mouth and down along his arms, which had been spreading open Micah's shirt as well as his legs, forcing exposure upon a weaker as a subconscious way of soothing himself. Dutch's gaze was locked on the stiff nubs of Micah's nipples. The gold piercing glinted in one of them, and the silver one, in the other. They were further complimented by the blush spreading over Micah's chest and up his neck. He was a rough little thing, full of scars, but he had these little places of grace – the fat, the redness, the wobbling bottom lip – that made him oddly pretty.
"Fascinating. Do they hurt?"
"No- Ow!"
Micah choked on air as Colm twisted the silver piercing.
Dutch sat down on the table in front of them, still bent forward to make sure his head was a fraction lower than Colm's. It was cute, but also very different from the time when Colm had made Dutch kneel on the floor in front of him, and crawl forward with an open mouth, ready to be fed and watered. But now his lips were closed-lipped, and his new liaison and clothes had given him more confidence; in terms of rank, he was above Micah by being Annabelle's lover.
"They must be sensitive. May I ...?"
"Go ahead. I think he likes you." Colm took hold of Micah's cheeks, pressing them together like a fish's mouth, "Don't you, kid?"
Micah made a wet noise, a mix of anger and helpless agreement.
"Well. I like you too," Dutch said in a lighter tone to Micah, reaching out to run his index and middle finger on the sides of the golden piercing. "Your shade of blonde is rather pretty. Like hers, but paler."
Micah shuddered, one nipple being caressed, and one, poked and prodded. Colm increased the pressure, feeling Micah's back go taunt against him, and when he let go, Micah sank down and breathed hard. Colm used his distraction to unbutton his pants and hold them open. Predictably, he was hard, and grew harder as Dutch took it as an invitation to rub both of his nipples with adept thumbs while Colm felt him twitch underneath his palms, pressing down, down, down.
"Fuck!" Micah cried out.
"Your brother is trying to buy out Annabelle," Dutch said suddenly but quietly, raising his eyes to Colm's before lowering them again.
"Yes, I know," Colm lied, hiding his surprise.

Just a little bit of Hosea's musings on admitting his secret love for Dutch. Set in the very early days, just a couple of weeks after having met. A journal entry by Hosea, letting his thoughts ramble about the hopelessness of secretly being in love.
It's mainly Hosea's thoughts, but there is a small bit of dialogue at the end. Kind of self indulgent really, not a proper story.

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.

Every time someone in this fandom romanticizes Abigail's prostitution, an angel looses its wings.
I can’t believe this still needs to be said, but let’s clear something up: Abigail Roberts was not “saved” by the Van der Linde gang out of the goodness of their hearts. She was a 17-year-old working girl. Yes, a prostitute—brought into the gang by Uncle because of her profession, not because they wanted to “help an orphan girl.” Pretending otherwise is not just wrong, it’s an insult to her character and completely misrepresents the darker themes of the game.
“They wouldn’t take advantage of a 17-year-old girl!” Really? These are men who rob, kill, and lie without hesitation. They absolutely would and did take advantage of her. Dutch was not some saintly father figure; he was an opportunist who saw value in people only as long as they served his needs. The gang didn’t “rescue” Abigail, they exploited her vulnerabilities and used her just like they used everyone else.
Even within the game, there’s a camp interaction where Susan Grimshaw tells Abigail she should return to prostitution to bring in more money for the gang. If that doesn’t make it clear how the gang viewed her role, I don’t know what will.
Abigail’s story isn’t some fairy tale about a group of noble outlaws saving an orphan. It’s about survival in a brutal, unforgiving world. She didn’t have a choice in staying with the gang. This idea that the gang was Robin Hood-like and only “stole from the rich to give to the poor” doesn’t erase the fact that they were still criminals who exploited people whenever they could, including Abigail.
The game wants you to sit with the uncomfortable truths of these characters. It shows you the dark realities of their actions and the systemic issues of the time. Romanticizing Abigail’s situation or painting the gang as her saviors completely undermines that. It’s not just naïve...it’s flat-out wrong.
This kind of take isn’t just ignorant; it’s borderline insulting to anyone who’s been in a similar situation. Abigail’s story is powerful because it’s not pretty. She was used, exploited, and forced to live a life she didn’t choose—but she fought tooth and nail to survive and make a better life for Jack. That’s what makes her compelling, not some sugar-coated fantasy about her being “rescued.”
Take off the rose-colored glasses and actually think critically about what the game is showing you. Abigail’s resilience is what makes her an incredible character—not some fake narrative about Dutch and the gang being her saviors. They weren’t.
It’s fine to love the characters, but stop twisting their stories to fit some idealized version of the gang. They’re criminals. Abigail was exploited by them. That’s the truth, and nothing about it is going to be pretty.
Abigail deserves way more respect than this.
#I know arthur and john were not those kind of men#but Bill and Uncle absolutely were#and arguing the point that Dutch was kind enough to take in arthur and john when they were young has nothing to do with abigail#the gang used to do good deeds and help people but that doesnt negate the fact they were NOT good people#abigail roberts#abigail marston#arthur morgan#rdr2#red dead redemption 2#red dead fandom#rdr2 community#red dead redemption community#john marston#dutch van der linde

I hate when people (usually men on reddit) are like “if you met arthur back then he would murder you for breathing in his existence!” Oh would he? When? Before or after he’s finished doodling bunnies and flowers?

Sycamore Trees is now on Ao3
Fandom: RDR
Rating: E
Pairings/characters: Dutch van der Linde/Arthur Morgan, background Arthur Morgan/John Marston
Keywords: Porn without plot, pre-canon, dubious consent, corruption, rough sex, scent kink, sweat, body worship, praise kink ...
Summary: Dutch has begun instructing Arthur in matters of sensuality. Each lesson has been more wicked than the last, tearing him down and building him up until he can't help craving more. The fourth time is particularly intense.
A/N: This is a commission for the kind and patient @cokobi, who was great to work and chat with these past weeks. It was also a nice way to pop my commission cherry hahah, it's definitely a kind of work I want to consider doing more of in the future!

Abigail: John, you’ve dropped the ring five times during this boat ride.
Abigail: I even picked it up once.
Dutch: Newsflash! I have no plan.
Dutch: Everything I’ve done in the last twenty, maybe twenty-five years has been me making stuff up as I go along.

Dutch: Well of course I have.
Dutch: Have you ever tried going mad without power?
