the last name escuella doesn't actually exist anywhere but in red dead

so i like to think that when javier became a revolutionary he made up a different last name so that the chances of people finding his family were smaller

probably combining escuela (school) and estrella (star) in the process and i think its a cool headcanon

[ruinedmoonspring]

nooo javier you’re so sexy don’t turn into an evil bootlicker💔💔💔

[ruinedmoonspring]

assuming that the "john is blind in his left eye" theory is true it's just so funny to me that in chapter 1 they bandaged the only eye he could see out of so he's just sitting there like

blind as shit

[ruinedmoonspring]

She red on my dead til I’m redeemed

[ruinedmoonspring]

are we pronouncing jovier as "joe-vier" or "hoe-vier"

[ruinedmoonspring]

THE jovier song ever

"i don't know how to love you, but some days i miss you" what if i jumped off a cliff

[ruinedmoonspring]

is it too soon to say john marston

ok now draw him writhing around on the floor whimpering and bleeding

[ruinedmoonspring]

so i was looking through javier's outfits (like normal people do) and

you mean to tell me that javier "washes his face first thing in the morning and spends an hour everyday shining his boots" escuella has holes in his socks?? (somehow that just made me like him even more)

[ruinedmoonspring]

so you're gonna tell me that despite all of the bad shit john marston has been through in both games, the only time we see him shed even a tear is over javier's dead body

[ruinedmoonspring]

so john marston revolutionized the socio-political situation in mexico to get his wife back, but your boyfriend can’t remember your favorite color?😦… oh okay…😯 oh… okay😒

enter, pursued by a memory my beloved <3

RARHAHRH HE'S SO PRETTY

[ruinedmoonspring]

okay so i'm working on writing this out but you have to promise not to bully me about any fucked up spanish 🙏

okay guys,, hear me out

1907 AU where John Marston buys the horse that looks like Boaz from Tumbleweed stable but it turns out to be actual Boaz and wasn't supposed to be sold at all. And Javier returns to try and retrieve his horse only to find out its been taken by John so naturally he tracks him down and in my heart they don't kill each other and hold hands instead <3

[ruinedmoonspring]

Javier being a cynic desperately trying to be a romantic, John being a romantic who pretends to be cynic.

both actively trying to kill off the part of themselves the other is envious of.

[ruinedmoonspring]

ever since i was a little girl i've known that i wanted to be romantically involved with a fictional man

[ruinedmoonspring]

all i do in this game is take photos of javier and cry

[ruinedmoonspring]

its heartbreaking how arthur tries, so hard, on numerous occasions, to get dutch to be the man he knew dutch, or believed dutch to be, the man who stood up for the little man, who took from the rich and gave to the poor, who raised him, loved him, is the reason arthur is the man that he is. he continues to try, he begs and pleads with him, no matter how many times dutch spits on his efforts, he tries so hard, having some hope that the man is still in there somewhere, only to be prove wrong again and again. yet, he still holds out hope, he still tries, even when he's dying, he still warns dutch, and pleads with him to believe, even till the bitter end and god.

it's so heartbreaking how loyal arthur is, and was, and how it doesn't matter if he's loyal, if he follows dutch and abandons everything, his love, his family, for dutch, it doesn't matter in the end as he still chose a man so vile, who he only knew for six months, a man who has only ever fed his ego, a man who actively sold the gang out for his greed over his son who loved him.

everytime i express that i like javier in the comments section of a tiktok some fucking 12 year old will reply like "bro has never played rdr1" like??? believe it or not i can enjoy complex and morally dubious characters with complicated intentions. i don't understand why some people think that because a character did bad things (which like, javier didn't even really do anything in rdr1? he pushed a crate on john and missed all of his shots when running away from him. he did nothing that well-liked characters like john and arthur didn't also do) no one can like them without being a miseducated fan. kind of annoying tbh </3
