Catch up with Orville Swanson

PDA-

Keep it sweet and simple, Orville flusters pretty easily and doesn't like to rub PD in other people's faces. Hold his hand, let him keep a hand on your shoulder, kiss each other's cheeks, let him kiss you on the top of the head or the temple, and short pecks to the lips. That is enough to keep him happy. He likes that other people can see that you're together but he prefers to keep displays of affection as a private thing, he just believes it should be between you and him, not everyone else.

The O'Driscolls Capture you-

After Orville got the news about your capture, instant panic and worry flooded over him. What would be do without you? He begged the others to help you, even begged to do with him but they insisted that he remained in the camp. They knew that he wouldn't be of much use, much to his dismay. He spent the whole time while he was waiting, just pacing back and forth because he couldn't settle. But as soon as you stepped foot back into the camp, Orville had his arms around you and cradled you against his chest. He was clingy for the next few days, he had just been so afraid of losing you.

They Have a Nightmare-

Orville wouldn't want to wake you up but he needed your comfort. So he would cuddle up beside you, nuzzling his face into the crook of your neck and holding you close to him. Pretty much using you as his own personal teddy bear. His sudden increased clingy behaviour would probably wake you up anyway. You would be concerned about him so you would ask him what was bothering him. You would wrap your arms around him while he told you about his nightmare, perfectly content now that he had you with him. He always felt comforted and loved when you were around.

A Child gets Attached to them-

When Dutch brought an abandoned child back to the camp, Orville definitely didn't think that they would get attached to him but he was happy to help if they needed it. He didn't understand why the child attached to him, maybe it was because he was usually quieter than the others in the camp. Maybe it was because the child could see the man that he used to be, the man that he really was. Either way, it didn't matter to Swanson. The child gave him a reason to change his ways, to try to beat his addictions again, to be a better role model for this child. He couldn't deny that he had grown attached to the child as well.

You get Overwhelmed on a Mission and go Missing-

The whole gang was arguing about who messed up and who's fault it was that they lost the score. It was beginning to bother Swanson and give him a headache but you always made him feel better, so he tried to find you. When he couldn't see you, he panicked a little. It took him a moment but he soon realised where you must be. Whenever you got overwhelmed or the gang was starting to become a little too much for you, you would go to your favourite spot in the area. Orville knew where you were because you had took him there a few times when you both needed some peace and quiet or a place to think.

Orville rode away from the gang, they wouldn't even notice that he was gone, and rode towards the spot he knew you would be at. Once he saw you, sitting on the ground and staring off into the distance, he dismounted his horse and sat down beside you. When you both came to this area, you would normally have Swanson's head laying in your lap while you played with his hair. This time you lay your head in Orville's lap while he ran his fingers through your hair, soothing you instantly.

They Take you on a Date-

Swanson loves going on dates with you but couldn't really take you anywhere fancy. Dates were usually you and Orville going for a horse ride and finding somewhere nice to sit for somewhere to eat, basically you would have little picnics. When Orville got enough money (maybe sneaking some from the gang's funds, not a lot though) he would take you out for dinner or a drink or a show, something that he thought was more like a date. You loved the simple dates with Orville though.
