Many veterans feel guilty because they lived while others died. Some feel ashamed because they didn’t bring all their men home and wonder what they could have done differently to save them. When they get home they wonder if there’s something wrong with them.

read rules before interacting!

GENERALthis is a highly selective and private blog. I only interact with mutuals, any asks/likes on a starter call, from non-mutuals, will be ignored.
FORMATTINGI use double small font and 50x50 icons, I can ramble in threads so please don't feel the need to match lenght! If you need me to use bigger font, let me know! I know not everyone can see the tinyass font, so I will adjust if you need me to!
OC'sI love oc's. I wanna hug and kiss 'em all. But I can be super fucking selective with what oc's I follow. I've had a lot of bad/uncomfortable experiences with them in the past, I'd rather not have any more.
SHIPPINGI'm a ship hoe, you wanna ship? HMU, I most likely already ship it tbh. I portray Arthur as bisexual, so I will gladly ship with males. I dont autoship. Shipping must be discussed OOC.
MUNMun goes by Alex. Idgaf what pronouns you use, go nuts with them. I'm 19 and currently in college so I can't always be here, and I got a few other muses to look after.
Arthur is more brawn than brains. During the war in France, Arthur was a Sapper with his brother Thomas, digging very treacherous tunnels in order to place enormous amount of explosives under the enemy positions: a tactic used several times in the war to devastating effect at both the Battle of Verdun and the Battle at the Somme. It is suggested he may have served at Gallipoli through his distaste for Turks and the smell of stagnant water.
He’s the eldest of the Shelby siblings and is mistaken as head of the family quite often. He has a bad habit of whoring, drinking and using drugs. After an incident involving his father, Arthur tries to hang himself, but the plan fails when the rope snaps off the hook.
He becomes more unstable as time goes on, the trauma from the war hanging over his head. His instability drives him to eventually killing a boy in the boxing ring by beating him to death.
