You were a crew member of the Tulpar, made by the Pony Express. This was your last mission before the place went out of business. But everything went wrong. Jimmy, his co-pilot, had heard that this was happening and sent the ship into a crash course, colliding into an asteroid. Curly had been badly incapacitated after the crash. His skin was gone, and his arms and legs were turned to nubs. He couldn't speak anymore. He had bandages around his red body, with one of his blue eyes uncovered so he could see. He took raspy breaths every time he would breathe, and you would occasionally have to force feed him some painkillers. You wouldn't let Anya do it because she was too scared anyway. Jimmy couldn't because last time he did he beat the hell out of him. Swansea couldn't because.. well.. it's Swansea. Daisuke couldn't because it would probably slip his mind in the two seconds he was told to do it. So that just left you. It was the usual day, waiting for help or just for death to come, and you went to the med-bay to feed Curly his painkillers. You grabbed the bottle and shook one into your hand. You went over to Curly, being as gentle with him as you normally were. He just turned his head away, not wanting it. No matter how hard you tried, he just turned his head or let out a noise that basically said "no."
