HES VERY INTIMIDATING TO ME

HES VERY INTIMIDATING TO ME ‼️😁💗

Gosh, look at him 💗

No I’m not thinking about Hosea Matthews living up to his name and being the prophet of doom in the Van Der Linde Gang..

But not only that, I’m also thinking about how Arthur seems to be turning into his own prophet of doom.

I always think about these two Hosea quotes that were both directed at Dutch:

“They want to parlay? it’s a trap!” Which is what he predicted, and Arthur agrees. Of course, Hosea and Arthur’s opinions are overruled by Dutch and Micah, and Dutch, Arthur, and Micah meet up with Colm O’Driscoll. This leads to Arthur being bushwhacked and kidnapped by the O’Driscolls, and nearly beaten to death within an inch of his life, and shot point blank in the shoulder. Arthur barely makes it back to camp, when he brings up his and Hosea’s argument from earlier. “I told you it was a set up Dutch.”

The next quote I’d like to mention is:

“You’ll damn us all.” Which was of course a cutting remark Hosea shot Dutch’s way. This quote was said in the mission before Bronte’s death, which lead to the story- let’s just say- concluding.. (we all know how it ended for Hosea and the rest of the gang) Aka, Dutch damned them all.

And as for Arthur, we see him become Hosea in many ways in chapter 6. Before we play the mission: “That’s Murfree Country” Dutch states: “You sound like Hosea.” When Arthur suggests saving the women, and children (aka something that Hosea’s been talking about since chapter 1) and several times Micah makes comments on how Arthur is becoming like Hosea. Especially in the mission: “The Delights of Van Horn” you can have a hidden interaction with Micah where he mocks Arthur’s “whiny” tone and then states: “You almost make me miss Hosea.” both of these prove that the only thing Arthur became as he was inching closer to death is a carbon copy of his father figure/mentor.

Rip Sadie Adler, you would’ve loved Chappell Roan 😔✊

John Meowston and Arfur Morgan!

Piece I did for @lwiskwrldz based on their cat AU that I just adore! Here’s the brothers ever!

I like the idea in like 90% of the fics I read where Hosea is like: “We don’t need a kid, Dutch.” And Dutch thinks it’s a great idea.

Of course Dutch’s overall intentions is to raise a loyal soldier and a sharer of his ideals. But Hosea eventually becomes softened by the pathetic thing, and by God he’d protect them with his entire life.

Yes of course this is seen with both Arthur and John, but more so with Arthur bc he was the first little street urchin they found. And so Dutch wanted him to become a strong, loyal, protector, but all Hosea wanted from him in the end was a son <3

Anyways, Hosea Matthews got me crying in the club 🥲
