Summary
“Dutch and I are older. You’re closest to his age.” Hosea puts a hand up to halt Arthur’s protestations at that– “I know you’re an adult Arthur, you’re still the youngest. He can see an easier path to being you than to being me or being Dutch. That’s a valuable thing for a young man that’s been through what he has.”
He moves his hand to pat Arthur’s arm. “I’ll still be showing him things, but I want him taking your example, too. We all have to pitch in.”
Arthur grunts, and frowns, and gnaws at his lip. But ultimately he acquiesces and bows his big head in deference to his fathers’ wills.
John Marston starts, to him, a burden.
-------------------
Things change for Arthur over the scale of years. John Marston worms his way in to parts of him he thought long dead.**UPDATE 12/22/24**: NOW COMPLETE! Explicit rating beginning in Chap 7.

Summary
“I’ve gone crazy,” he concludes aloud.
This must be the answer, because his dreams are never this stable, and he doesn’t believe in ghosts. He’s finally lost his ever-loving mind. The grief must have been too much. He’s become one of those men driven insane by tragedy.
“It’s me,” Arthur says, voice raspy around the edges. “You’re not crazy, John.”
_______
John spends two years trying and failing to move on. Returning to the States, he makes the most unlikely and infuriating discovery of the new century. Life has provided a second chance, and John refuses to let it go to waste.
