so I have a confession. I'd read a lot of rdr2 fanfics before I even played the game, so I used to see the "arthur does have tuberculosis" tag a lot and I thought it was pretty weird but I just assumed most of you guys just had a sickness kink or something?? I did NOT know that man was doomed by the narrative sir

Anon this is the funniest fucking ask I've ever had I'm so sorry you went through that

alright RDR2 folk I’m back on my bullshit again.

it seems to me that most folk agree that the flowers on Arthur’s grave are mexican butterfly weed/bloodflower and red poppies

HOWEVER. those little red flowers do not look like poppies to me. poppies are a bit larger and more stalky than whatever those are, as seen in the below image.

so I did some googling and I’m thinking that the red flowers are likely pansies!

they look to be the right shape/size and have that kind of dark center before the yellow, and they also have a lot of interesting meaning

that paired with the context of Charles being the one to bury Arthur. Oof.

I’m not 100% sold on them being pansies as the leaf shape isn’t quite right and they don’t have enough yellow. They could also be petunias or primrose

(interesting to note that petunias most commonly symbolize anger and resentment, while primrose can symbolize youth, yearning, renewal, or optimism.)

cursing rockstar for not making it more evident what the fuck those red flowers are. let me talk about flower symbolism goddamnit (and also further the charthur agenda).

If anyone has any thoughts as to what they could be pls chime in!
