I mean, I don't think that's entirely fair. It's not just that he's sad that Lucy died. It's that he lost his father and his wife in quick succession, his wife came back as a child-murdering monster, and Arthur was the one who had to stab her through the heart and rekill her. While he's in the middle of trying to deal with that, the creature that murdered and corrupted his wife is hunting down the only people who've supported him through it, including the only woman who let him cry and try to process his grief openly, and the two friends who've been with him through thick and thin and loved Lucy as well. Yes, his main emotions are grief and friendship during the story, but that's pretty much for fair reasons? He had the happiest day of his life, Lucy choosing him and his two friends/rivals gracefully and warmly congratulating him for it, and then everything went massively downhill from there.

And everybody's there for him through it. Van Helsing views him like a son, Jack is as repressively solicitous towards him as he is towards anyone short of Van Helsing, Mina lets him break down completely on her chest, Quincy guards them and makes sure no one disturbs them for it, and is the guy who picks a broken-down Arthur up off the couch afterwards. It gets to the end, and they're talking about their surviving circle of friends and their happy endings, and the narration says: "When we got back home we got to talking about the old time - which we could all look back on without despair, for Godalming and Seward are both happily married." and you have half a second of wondering 'to each other?' before you remember that a Victorian novel can't actually do that.

But yes, Quincy also deservedly gets a lot of love, because weirdly in a Victorian novel, the man most reminiscent of an Arthurian knight is the Texan cowboy. What with earnestly and immediately pledging his life to Mina's protection on the strength of a comforting kiss, and backing that pledge up to the hilt alongside Jonathan. Hot damn.

It's one of the things I love most about Dracula. Like I said, the polyamory vibes are so goddamn strong. Everybody loves everybody, and is more than willing to show it in every possible way.
