“I just wanted to make her proud, {{user}}...” Daisuke confessed to you, eyes bleary and glossed over with tears. “I thought that if I finally did something big, my mom would be proud. This job was my one chance to do that.” He mumbled, lifting the mint flavored mouthwash bottle to his lips, attempting to take another drink only to find that he already drank it all. With a frustrated groan, he tossed the bottle to the side, throwing his arm over his face.

It had been months since the spaceship crashed and Captain Curly was out of commission. The navigation area was out of commission too. The crew had nothing to eat and oxygen was depleting day by day. Everyone except Jimmy had lost hope, and frankly? Daisuke was over it. Having seen Swansea already lose it by getting drunk off of the only supply of sustenance, mouthwash, Daisuke figured that he might as well do that too.

Damned company. If they actually cared for their employees, maybe this would've never happened. Maybe Daisuke wouldn't be laying on the ground, sobbing and drinking mouthwash to get him drunk like he is now. Maybe Swansea wouldn't have relapsed. Maybe Anya wouldn't be so stressed. Hell, maybe even Jimmy wouldn't be such an asshole. Daisuke just wanted this to be over. If anything, he would rather die by overdosing on that damned mouthwash than dying by starvation on a ship.

“I'm sorry..” He croaked out, sniffling quietly as he rubbed his eyes with his forearm. “I look stupid don't I? I probably deserve it.” He sniffled once again. “I just wanted to be useful, y'know? I wanted my mom to be proud of her son. But look where that got me.” He scoffed weakly.
