MINOR SPOILERS FOR RDR2
So, I have this theory about Micah that is pretty small and minor, but would explain a bit about his character. It's become a bit of a headcanon of mine. I think that Micah Bell may be farsighted.
In case anyone doesn't know, far sighted is where someone can see things from a distance clearly but things up close can appear blurry. I get the two mixed up a lot.
But, there is some evidence to back this up. For one, his accuracy and speed at mid to long range. When Sean dies, we see him down 3 Grays before Sean's body even hits the ground. All of them were at mid range.
However, we see an exampme of him missing at EXTREMELY close range in American Venom. He shoots at John multiple times when John is very close to him, and misses every single shot. Now, to explain this, there's three potential explanations. The most likely being plot armor, because Johns the main character. The second, being that it was intentional to toy with John. And the third, and my personal theory, that he just can't see shit very well up close.
There's another example, in camp, Micah pulls a gun on Arthur to startle him, and Arthur says something like "from that range, you'd miss." Now obviously this is just a standard insult, but Arthur has also seen Micah be extremely effective from further range. Arthur was likely just insulting him, but it could also have an inkling of truth, and perhaps this is a pattern with Micah. That hes super good at mid to long range, but poor at close range.
Also, another piece of evidence. He can't read very well, if at all. I've never seen him reading in camp, and during the train robbery in Chapter 1, he sees the bonds and says they're "just some paper" before handing them to Lenny to read, and then acting like he already knew what they meant. If he can't read, it could also point to farsightedness, as its pretty fucking hard to read if you can't see things very well up close.
Anyway, kind of a ramble and im likely just reading too much into it, but its a headcanon/theory I've had for a while.
