latest episode got me doing Fucking Maths [no spoilers for new ep, General Arthur Backstory spoilers] [[its about Her]]
Arthur was only 18 when he had Faroe
her birthday is before his, they're both in March
as yarnzipan mentioned NO WONDER DANIEL WAS PRESSED
This is a BABY with a BABY
also why he was forgiving
cause dumbass baby made baby decisions but he was trying to do the right thing
and I think it's implied Daniel was also a single father, too
so like, he genuinely knows what help Arthur needs
and has the financial means to give him those things
but Arthur gotta Arthur
Daniel's meant to be in like his 50s or 60s too, I think, so he was much older than Arthur to begin with when he had Bella
as well as old money rich, and an English immigrant
God bless Arthur's tenacity but also goddamn it Arthur
