#yeah boah

[big-boah-2]

He'd wear 38"x32" Levi's, the dark blue 514 ones. White tees and flannel and work boots. He'd work in construction or park rangering or something, and when he comes home at the end of the day, and you hug him, your fingertips barely touch behind his back. It's those kind of hugs where you do a squish and you can feel like soft yet firm comfort between your arms. Warmth. He would grumble about how he stinks and needs a shower, but he always smells good for some reason. Like him and the outdoors, balanced perfectly. And once you've held him long enough, he kisses your forehead and tells you how much he appreciates everything you do, even though he's out there doing hard labor. You'd kiss him back, savoring the feeling of his full lips between yours, then you'd shower together. Just like every night, you enjoy a damn good meal and dessert, doing whatever makes you happy and relaxed after, until you both hit the hay that night. Because he's just a good, honest, hard-working guy. And you're an amazing, beautiful, and caring companion.

JO BO AH X JO IN SUNG: UNEXPECTED BUSINESS (2021) MOMENTS PT. 1

[fictionallyinparadise]

Going insane over the thought of wearing one of Arthur s shirts oh my god ,mznsmmsmfd.

[papaue00]

rdr2 has many examples of storytelling through gameplay/environment but one example that i don't think ppl have mentioned is arthur being exclusively a dog person. by that i mean he kinda don't gaf about cats, and it's so funny.

(not an anti-cat post, just trying to do a mini analysis on an instance of non-verbal storytelling.)

- he can pet dogs just fine and he will stay there petting them 24/7 if you let him

- he doesn't pet cats

- he affectionately calls dogs "boah", similar to how he calls horses (another animal he loves) boah or gurl. he even invites the dogs to come to him.

- he greets cats with "hi cat" or "hey kitty", not very cold but doesn't quite carry the same fervor in which he calls out to dogs or horses.

- when he gets drunk, if you praise dogs, he'll excitedly yell out at the sight of them, calling them pretty, etc

- he just greets cats kinda... normally. again, seems very tepid compared to how he treats the doggies. (unless i've missed some lines)

many people complain he doesn't pet cats. rarely do i see them ask why. but if you look at it from a storytelling/characterization angle, if you assume rdr2 gameplay is not segregated from but instead intentionally complementary to the storytelling? yeah, it's probably the game's way of telling you he is meh on cats.

After-care with the gang

I’ve been thinking about after-care with a few of the gang members and what this would look like. So far I’ve written for Arthur, Dutch, Charles, Javier, Lenny, Karen and Sadie - I may write a part 2 (I know I still need to do part 2 of thigh-riding). There’s also a few implied kinks in here, which I may, or may not do something further on. 

!!Minors DNI. 18+ Only!!

Warnings: Smut (obviously), depictions of cleaning up/mixing bodily fluids, a slight allusion to foot fetish/interest in water sports. 

Arthur

Good girl/boah” you did so well for me didn’t you hmm?

Arthur communicates a lot after sex with ‘hmms’ and cooing noises.

His aftercare is kind of brief, he’s sleepy after sex and sometimes suffers with bouts of depression when he’s come down from his high which means he can be rather quiet afterwards.

But it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t care about his partner and he’s sure to let you know that. He struggles to be vulnerable around people, but if he’s close to you then he will let you in perhaps even talking a little about feelings afterwards and opening up to you.

If you’re in a hotel he’d like to take a bath with you afterwards so you can both get clean and get into bed feeling refreshed and warm. If you’re at camp it’s a different vibe, unless there’s a river nearby and it’s a summer’s night – in which case Arthur is absolutely up for running naked from the camp and skinny dipping. Then it’s a case of a small bucket of warm water and cloths for the both of you, it’s a mutual cleaning thing. You both sit there and slowly wash one another.

It also depends on the type of sex the two of you have just had. If it was rough and/or there’s an element of BDSM or Arthur just being very dominant, he will be very caring and full of praise. He’ll enjoy your needs are tended to and that you have the space along with everything you need to come back down. He’ll kiss any bruises, love bites, anywhere his fingernails dug in too deep etc. And ensure you’re feeling okay. If there’s any concerns, no matter how tired Arthur is, your needs come first in this instance and he’s down to talk things out.

Dutch

“My dear you performed so well.” He is full of compliments.

He’ll help clean you up, mostly because he doesn’t want to sleep in a messy bed, but also because he does actually care, even if he isn’t the best at showing it.

Soft kisses across your chest, inner thighs…in all those sensitive areas which may be a little tender and sore after sex. Yeah, he wants to make them feel good.

He really likes to watch himself leak from you, sitting back as he smokes a cigar and makes you spread your legs so he can watch for a few minutes. It’s uncomfortable and he knows that it’s especially nasty as it gets colder but Dutch will reward you for your efforts and the show you put on for him.

After a few minutes he’ll tell you that’s enough and then lean forward to assist in cleaning you up. He’ll gently wipe the cum from your skin and assist you to the bathroom if you’re staying in a hotel. Yup, Dutch knows that peeing after sex is a good idea and he encourages it…. There’s a bit more to unpack there but we’ll leave it at that.

One of Dutch’s favourite things is to have his partner by his side in bed, with their head on his broad chest. If you gently tug the curly hair there, it’ll have him purring.  

Charles

Charles is very spaced after sex and needs a moment to come down from his own high. So expect to just cuddle softly in his broad arms. He likes having his partner’s head on his chest so they can hear his heartbeat. It’ll only be once he’s calmed down and feels back to earth that he’ll get up.

But he’ll check in with you first, making sure you’re okay and if you need anything. Whether It’s a massage, food, drink…whatever it is Charles will get it for you, he’ll just do it quietly while he works through his own come down and emotions.  

He’s really good at giving massages too, especially deep tissue massages and working those knots out. Or slow and sensual massages with oil that either leave you drifting off to dreamland incredibly soothed, or if the mood takes you both it’ll lead to the next round as he massages your inner thighs.

Kinda likes to taste himself, so before getting a cloth to clean you up he’ll lick as much of you as he can to taste your juices together. There’s something primal and animalistic about it which makes him feel much closer to you even if he can’t quite explain why.

It takes him a while to go to sleep after sex, he’s tired – yes. But mentally he’s awake, thinking about your body and how it makes him feel.

After sex Charles gets philosophical and thinks about life. He’s happy to talk to you about it, he loves those late night conversations with the person he loves and how they’re feeling. This is the time of day when secrets are likely to come out or his deepest fears, biggest dreams etc.

Javier

Javier is a king of after-care. He needs his partner to feel loved, comfortable, safe, happy and clean after sex.

Occasionally he’s into cock warming so won’t pull out straight away. He enjoys the feeling of going soft inside you and then just staying there. He’ll check in with you while he lays on your chest, snuggling a little and muttering praise. But when he does finally pull out he’ll already have a handkerchief or cloth ready to help tidy up the mess.

He can’t help but kiss you anywhere intimate, anywhere he’s cleaning you – loves the taste of you and of himself as it leaks from you, so will use his tongue delicately so not to overstimulate you as he cleans, then kisses you to share your mixed taste. If you have a cock, he’ll intentionally spit a little of his own cum onto yours if it’s on your stomach/thighs etc. and then lick it up. He doesn’t care if others think it’s nasty, he thinks it’s hot. Of course he’ll only do this point if you’re comfortable with it too.

Lots of cuddles and praises – will pull you back into his arms so that your back is flush to his chest. He’s warm and his heart is still beating fast.

His kisses after sex are slow and sensual, he loves the sound of his your name on his lips and will mutter it in between kisses.

Plays with your hair, brushing it, stroking it and massaging your temple. Or if his partner is bald then he’ll put all his love into massaging their scalp and peppering kisses on it. Everything with Javier feels so good it’ll make you never want it to end.

Massages sore shoulders or feet, he’s kind of into feet so it may turn him on again – but he’s a good boy who is very able to keep things under control.

If he’s planning on having a particularly rough or intense session, he’ll make sure there’s something to drink, eat and plenty to clean up with as well as some massage oil. After-care is as important to him as the sex itself, it’s a time to show you how much he loves you and cares, it’s also a time to continue being sensual, just in a different way.

Javier can be pretty sleepy after sex, especially if it’s at night, so his aftercare is also slow, sleepy and soft. His yawns are the sweetest – though if you tell him that he pulls a particular face, a little grumpy but hard not to adore.

Loves nothing more than to fall asleep in a bed with you – it makes him feel safe and secure knowing you’re so close. But more than that, the fact you’re so close means he can protect you if needed.

Lenny

Lenny is one of the softest boys or partners when it comes to after care. Partly because he needs it too, an intense session in the bedroom can really take it out of him and leave him feeling quite emotional and vulnerable – even if he was the one in control.

As such he’ll take things slow and wait for you both to come down from your highs. It might be a few minutes but in the meantime, he’ll hold you in his arms and softly stroke your hair and tell you how much he loves you, how well you did, how proud he is to be yours.

When Lenny does get up, he’ll check you’re okay. His movements are slow and thoughtful, he has a bowl of water by the side of the bed and some towels already lined up. He knows the water will be cold but he’s so gentle and slow with cleaning you up that it doesn’t matter.

In between cleaning your thighs, intimate areas he’ll pepper kisses over your skin.

Will also give you one of his shirts to wear to keep you warm as you come back to reality.

Lenny loves going to sleep by your side and knowing you’re with him. Sometimes the big spoon and sometimes the little spoon. It doesn’t really matter to him as long as he’s in bed with the person he loves.

Karen

Karen is very fond of cuddles after sex, she’s happy to lie in bed for ages after her come down and hold you in her arms. There’s praise there too and lots of blankets.

Queen of after sex snacks, she’s stashed food away or bought some candies that she has for after sex which is really cute. She just likes the taste of something sweet and innocent after sex, and there’s nothing better than sharing that moment with you.

If you’ve had an intense session where she’s been domineering and it’s perhaps been a little much, Karen is one of the best partners to be with. She’ll brush your hair and stroke your arms softly, scratch your back and just make you feel all fuzzy, warm and loved.

Karen will never go to sleep until she knows you’re settled and happy. No matter how tired she is she’d want to make sure you were okay and that you’d had a good time. She’ll sing soft praise.

The big spoon – Karen loves to feel protective of the one she loves and needs them to know they’re safe with her and she’d never do anything to hurt them.

 Sadie

After-care with Sadie is swift, there isn’t time in her life for stalling or being too romantic about things. Life on the road and even at camp moves fast and after everything she’s been through Sadie would rather make sure she isn’t out of it for too long.

But she’ll provide you with a cloth to clean yourself up and will always kiss you afterwards. The kisses will be brief but mean something, light traces on the neck, a kiss on the cheek and then a brief kiss on the lips where for just a few seconds it will be like the start of the evening. Passionate and leaving you wanting more. And then it’s done.

But Sadie never leaves without a smile, slightly cocky and beautiful smile. She will also need to know that you are okay, whether she asks or the communication is done all through her actions, it is important to her that you know she cares.

Sadie isn’t big on sleeping in the same bed as anyone, regardless of how much she loves them or how close they are. Sadie is just a lady who needs her space, Jake was the only person who she could trust to get that close. So if you do want to share a bed, you’ll have to be very patient and understanding.

John: I'm being mocked! By my own family! On my birthday!

Sean: It's your birthday?

John: Yeah, don't you remember, it's the same day as the dog's!

Tilly: Cain, it's your birthday? Oooh, we gotta get you a present, yes we do! *scratches Cain's ears*

Arthur, rubbing his belly: We love you, boah!

Susan, pets him: Good dog, good doggy!

Jack: *hugs Cain too*

John, muttering: Lousy, loveable dog.

[lea-khena]

Reading all these posts about Arthur giving John his satchel (and journal that was in it) and what it implies, honestly as sweet as it is I also just genuinely think he really did not have time to just, take his journal and be like "uh yeah so uh... I dont want you to read that" and toss it away 😂😂😂

Pinkertons about to kill them anytime and arthur knowing hes about to die but still bothers about his journal 😂 boah got his priority straight

Don't mind my silly thinking their relationship means the world to me and out of everyone I'm sure Arthur would rather John have his journal than anyone else haha

PART 22

of the dfk audiobook translation

@cnka

Narrator (audiobook): Uli gathers all his courage and steps in front of the assembled class.

Uli: „I want to say something!“ Uli: „I can't take this anymore! You all think I’m a loser. But I’m not! I’ll prove it to you tomorrow at 3 at the city wall. That I’m not a loser!“

The class mutters among each other. Uli jumps down from the desk and leaves.

The Externs walk past Uli's friends and yell another "Loser!" at them.

Narrator (audiobook): Meanwhile, Jo has checked her phone. She is shocked.

Jo: „They’ve deleted everything!“ Matze: „What, seriously?!“ Jo: „All of our work, our film! Everything we’ve shot, this- oh, I’ll kill these pigs. We need to take revenge, we need a plan!“ Martina: „Jo, I don’t know. What’s the point of that?“

Jo: „They have destroyed everything! Our entire film, everything we’ve worked on! You can’t be this indifferent to it.“ Martina: „I’m not indifferent to it. I just have more important things to do. I need to study.“

Jo: „Study? Are you really serious? Your only problem is if Bökh likes you!?“ Martina, yelling: „Boah, Jo, ey, you have no idea at all! Just shut the hell up for once!!“

Narrator (audiobook): Martina storms furiously out of the room. So does Jo shortly after.

Jo: „There’s really nothing but idiots here! Shitty jerkwater town!!“

[Note: this is the best translation of "scheiß Kuhkaff" I could find...]

Narrator (audiobook): A helpless Matze is left behind.

Matze: „So much for 'us Internals stick together'.“

SCENE CHANGE

[Note: I can translate the song lyrics if you want to.]

Narrator (audiobook): The next day. Matze walks into his room and meets his friend, who is about to leave with a helmet and climbing ropes.

Matze: „Hi, Uli.“

Narrator (audiobook): But Uli ignores Matze and gives him a bodycheck before he storms out of the room.

Narrator (audiobook): It’s not an easy time. Everyone seems to be fighting their own small battle. Not just the kids, but also Robert. The meeting with Justus has stirred him up a lot and torn open old wounds.

A montage of different characters while the song plays.

Martina lies on her bed with her school books and cries.

Robert is on a walk along the lake.

Matze plays with a little boxing toy and eats biscuits.

Narrator (audiobook): Jo seeks conversation with the Nichtraucher and knocks on the door of his wagon.

(knocking)

Jo: „Can I come in?“

Narrator (audiobook): Shortly after, Jo is playing on Robert‘s piano. He sits next to her and listens.

Jo plays the last chords of the song on the piano.

Jo: (sighs) Jo: „I feel like I don’t belong here.“ Jo: „Like, in Kirchberg.“

Jo: „I mean, they’re all little Spießers here.“ Nichtraucher: (chuckles quietly) Jo: „The Externs anyway…“ (sighs) „And the Internals are shit too.“ Nichtraucher: „Yeah?“ Jo: "Yeah, I mean, you’re better off on your own too after all. Don’t meet Bökh and stuff..." Nichtraucher: (heavy sigh)

Narrator (audiobook): Robert sits down on the couch and lights himself another cigarette.

Nichtraucher: (long sigh) Nichtraucher: „You know, Jo- life is like that sometimes. People disappear and then they’re just gone.“

Jo: „How? Something like that has a reason. Why did you never want to see each other again?“ Nichtraucher: (sighs.) „His mother was sick. Very sick. It wasn’t easy back then either, a friendship with an Internal. It was complicated.“

Silence.

Jo: „What happened?“

Silence.

Nichtraucher: „My wife died.“

Silence.

Jo: „Oh.“

Silence.

Nichtraucher, quietly: „Justus knew her as well. But he didn’t get in touch.“

Silence.

Nichtraucher, almost whispering: „Maybe he didn’t care.“

Music softly fades in.

Jo: „I don’t believe that.“

what's Kari's role like in the cowboy au? are her and Ollie still a cute lil horse ridin' thing?? 🥺🥺

[lonesome-ranger]

can you give me your best lord huron songs for arthur? my arthur morgan playlist has “ghost on the shore” and “meet me in the woods”. i need more songs for my boah 🤠

OMG YES OF COURSE BESTIE (also I hope your vacation is going well/went well!!!!!)

Ghost on the Shore and Meet Me in the Woods are both such great songs too omg

I'm going to try to keep the list short:

"Time to Run" and "Lullaby" - they're both about an outlaw cowboy character so the lyrics work perfect for Arthur.

"Brother" - this is *the* Arthur and John song and no one can tell me otherwise.

"Way out There" - I feel like Arthur has the same mindset as the narrator of this song especially in the first verse.

"What Do It Mean" - existential crisis: the song. Lyrics are beautiful but depressing, just like Arthur <3

"Drops in the Lake" - this is *the* Arthur and Mary song and no one can tell me otherwise.

"Setting Sun" - okay, hear me out. The song has majoring "cowboy riding off into the sunset vibes" which works so well for Arthur. Lyric wise it doesn't fit as well unless we're talking about a very low honor Arthur but idk I still associate it with him because I'm mentally ill and I think the lyrics are kinda 👀

Those are the main ones I'd say. I have a few self indulgent ones and I can see "the night we met" working for Arthur and Dutch in a way, but yeah! Hope you can add a few of these songs to your playlist!!

[mando-abs]

The other dream I had was a Joel Miller dream. It was also very short. And strange. But sweet? Very mild nsfw below.

Joel was resting in bed (presumably from anxiety? maybe he was achy idk). I knocked on the door, came in, and presented him with a medium/large sized patchwork teddy bear I made myself (I cannot do such things, but maybe in an apocalypse I can).

This image is close but it had more lighter red fabric and brown button eyes. A nice chunky boah

He was looking at me funny and grumpily. I would too if I was going through an episode and someone barged in with a teddy bear.

~

“What’s this?”

“Something to take the edge off when your thoughts start acting up again. I know how much you don’t want my hugs…or anybody’s hugs for that matter. So I thought you could redirect the pain to….Yeah, it’s stupid….Anyways, I’ll leave you alone.”

~

So I left him the teddy and went to go take a shower somewhere idk (probably bc I needed one outside of my dream lol) and Joel fucking Miller came into the shower fully clothed.

~

“What the fuck are you doing in here? Get out!”

He hugs me in his sopping wet clothes.

“If you wanted a hug from me, all you had to do was ask.”

And then we just kinda stood like that with only the sound of the water rushing until it hit Joel what a pervy thing he’d done. He removed his arms quickly liked he’d been burned.

“Shit. I’m sorry. This was a real fuckin stupid idea. I mean you’re in your birthday suit for Christ’s sake. I’m sorry.”

“I mean….if it was to grab my attention, it worked.”

And we both kinda smiled.

~

Wooohooo Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, you are wonderful... Wooohooo Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, you are wonderful, YOU ARE WONDERFUL... Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, you are wonderful, Ooh Yeah... Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, Ooweoo Jesus, you are wonderful, Ohlala...

Woman on the couch: Great, yes?

Boy and man on the couch: Noises that more or less signal agreement.

Woman to the boy: Do you also have such great music? In the parish?

Boy: Boah, that was something special. (said in the same tone you'd say 'wow, that was interesting')

Woman to the singer: That was a song welcoming Jesus, right?

Singer: Yes, we always do this.

It tried to convey how easily you can interpret the German original as something dirty, dunno how well that worked.
