On Mary

To expand further on what I said about Mary yesterday (making this a new post because I want it in the tags):

I've noticed that when it comes to canon ships for Arthur Eliza is far more popular than Mary is, despite Eliza never appearing in the game (she doesn't even get a last name!) and there being no indication that Eliza was anything other than a one night stand Arthur was co-parententing with

(In fact, Eliza's whole place in the story messes up the game's timeline but that's a topic for another post).

I think this really highlights the problem that fandom has with misogyny. Fans prefer a non-entity character over a complex, flawed female character.

'Oh but Surana, it's not misogyny. I like *this* female character over *that* female character'

No, you prefer a cardboard cutout over a well written *character*. Because that's essentially all Eliza is. She is the definition of fridged wife. We know nothing about her other than how her death affected Arthur.

Mary may not be the best written character in the game (Rockstar has an issue with writing women in general, though) but she is at least a character. And what's fascinating about her is she's essentially a female Arthur. Everything fans dislike about her? Guess what? That's Arthur! That's your blorbo!

Mary picked her family over Arthur? Arthur picked his over her. Abusive dad? Check. Younger brother? Check.

(I love Dutch but, man. He's not winning father of the year any time soon).

Mary refused to give up her life for Arthur? Well Arthur refused to give up his for hers, and Mary made the much more reasonable suggestion of 'stop doing crime, it will kill you' because, spoiler alert, it did!

Mary, like Arthur, was caught between love and loyalty and just like with Arthur the loyalty won.

'But she married someone else'. She was a woman in the late 1800s with a duty to her family and I've just established that loyalty is Mary's defining trait.

'But she told Arthur she never wanted to speak to him again'. Do you think it was easy for her to be around Arthur, knowing that she loved him but couldn't be with him?

Anyway, that's why I don't like or trust fans that don't like Mary Gillis Linton.

I love him, and he makes me want to do terrible things. enjoy! -Jelly

...

This man is a bumbling idiot, and I mean that will all the love in the world.

He keeps everyone at an arm's length and can be really awkward. His history with romance is not a happy one.

Arthur is sensitive and thoughtful, so he isn't super into casual sex anymore. He doesn't necessarily need to be in a relationship with the person, per say, but he's not going to lay with someone he doesn't see a future with. He knows it's not worth the risk.

He needs to trust you enough to be able to let his guard down around you. He doesn't feel comfortable or confident enough to have moments of "weakness" around just anyone.

When you do get him in your bed (cot? tent?), he's a lot softer than you'd expect. He's so gruff and grumpy all the time, but he becomes quiet when you're together like this.

He's honestly a little nervous about what you'll think about him. He's a horrible, ugly, rough man. Why would you want to have him? (give him a big kiss pls)

The first few times, he acted as if he was expecting to be looked down upon. Poor man.

Enough of the sad stuff. My character analysis sucks ass.

I honestly feel like he's pretty vanilla. He might have been a little bit more experimental when he was younger, but he just wants to love and be loved on now.

He prefers to move at a slower pace. He's not opposed to rough, but isn't really a fan of fast. Is very willing to let you guide the pace, but always prefers to give rather than receive.

He might get a little insecure if you start cracking jokes, even if they aren't at his expense. He'll get used to it, but tends to be a bit more sensitive when he's letting you take the lead.

Gets turned on when he sees you focused on something. Chopping vegetables? Reading? Sharpening knives? He wants you to focus on him like that :(

Massage his chest. Do it. Instant turn on. Alternatively, scratch gently at his chest hair. He melts!

Will grumble if you bite him. It's kind of hilarious.

Arthur has big, big hands. Wide palms, calloused fingers, blunt fingernails. He likes the way they look, contrasted with your skin.

He loves to hold you, hands on either side of your waist, thumbs stroking the skin of your ribcage just below your breasts. He'll place feather-light kisses to your stomach as he does so.

Runs his fingers through/over your hair often. Traces the lines of your body with his palms. He's very tactile.

One of his favorite things to do is to spread you out in his lap. You'll be sitting between his legs, your back to his chest. He drapes your legs over his, hooking his knees under your thighs to hold your legs open. And he'll finger you like this for ages until you're begging him for a break.

Loves to hold his fingers against your tongue afterwards ;)

Loves to take his time with you. Typically focuses on you, and will actively try to avoid you focusing on him.

(Hold him down. You wouldn't win, but he won't fight you.)

Blushes deep red if you compliment his dick <3

He does have a bit of a size kink. I mean... c'mon. He's huge.

Big barrel chest, tall and imposing. Your hands can't make it around his wrists.

Likes positions where he can rest his weight on you. Missionary, prone bone, mating press. If you ride him, he wants to be sitting up so he can hug you and/or kiss your breasts. He gets shy when he's laying flat back and you're looking down at him.

Once he's comfortable, he talks to you quite a bit. Hushed, grunting tones. Never says anything too explicit, but does utter quite a bit of praise.

"God damn, girl... You feel me? You feel me deep?"

(Really likes it deep. He's big, so he's always wanted someone who's able to handle all of him. Good luck.)

Moans, but only quietly. He might die if someone heard him.

I can't see him being into giving any sort of degradation or pain. You can ask him to do those things, but he'll honestly get a little offended. He's not that much of a brute. You're his baby :(

Loves to tease, but struggles with being teased back. Tease him to work him up to being a little rougher. It takes a bit to get to that point, though. We all know how restrained he can be.

Edge him.

Afterwards, he sticks around. Likes to sleep next to you.

Arthur is very much a gentleman, and wants to make sure you're okay. He might honestly get a little annoying and overbearing.

(Though tbh if you do some of the more intense positions, you might need it.)

He's a big comfy teddy bear. Curl up into his side or lay across his chest. He couldn't be happier.
