I want Dutch to be haunted but I don’t want it to be by Hosea or Arthur or really anybody he ever cared about. I think that’d be too good for him, that he’d actually want that even. Because then those horrible endings wouldn’t have really been endings.

If he was haunted by Arthur or Hosea, he’d have the opportunity to apologize, say that he was wrong, that he loved them, that he regrets everything. He’d get to look into their face again, hear their voice again.

I don’t want that for him.

I want for the last time that Dutch ever saw Hosea to be when he was bleeding out on streets of St. Denis. And for Arthur, I want for the last time Dutch ever touched him to be his boot crushing down on Arthur’s hand (the same hand he taught to hold a pencil). I want for the last thing Dutch ever said to Arthur to be that angry “It’s over, Arthur. It is over.” And most of all, I want the last time Dutch Van Der Linde ever saw Arthur Morgan to be him looking down at the broken, beaten, emaciated body of one of the first (and definitely the last) people to ever love him unconditionally.

That’s it. No do overs.

But I do want Dutch to be haunted. I want Dutch to be haunted by a man whose presence brings him no comfort. I want him to be haunted by Lyle Morgan.

And so Lyle comes to him at night, like a weary traveler seeking respite at the tiny campfire Dutch has made for tonight. Warms his dead hands against the flames. Dutch never acknowledges him, but Lyle makes conversation anyway. As if he hasnt been dead nearly twenty years. Talks about his son, asks Dutch if he’s a father himself.

Dutch never answers but Lyle keeps on talking. Lyle just talks about his own son and how dull and difficult he is, 10 years old and nothing but a burden. Asks if Dutch can relate. And eventually he starts to say all these horrid things and maybe Dutch gets angry enough to acknowledge him and say something back. Which is exactly what the specter wants. But he can rage at this apparition all he wants (if he’s even real or just some manifestation of guilt is still the question), in the end Lyle Morgan, horrid man that he was, is not responsible for the death of Arthur Morgan.

I want so badly for Dutch to be haunted by the ghost of a man he’s never met. The ghost of a man who he only ever heard about in passing. And who he hates.
