CURLY - the last one and then another (pt.2)

so, curly is sorry for being somewhat complicit. and for being … another cog in the machine, maybe. he should have changed, but he didn’t know the weight of his reluctance until now that “worse things fester.” he claims he tried which is interesting. but unfortunately, he ended up becoming a slave to his past, much like jimmy did (except in a more delusion way)…

“we” said tomorrow will be different, but wasn’t he the one who said that? that “this time won’t be any different” from all the times jimmy has apparently fucked up? or did he say all that because it’s smth jimmy would say? grabs him by the shoulders WHO ARE YOU FIRSTNAME CURLY!!

but alas, it’s the last day. the last one. and then another.

curly is the “last one,” survivor of the tulpar crew.

“and then another” a certain someone haunting his conscience forever.

because instead of making his life one he wouldn’t run away from, he’s having cake with his friend.

…

side note: if the last one curly turns out to not be canon or is just another figment of jimmy’s imagination (bc my Secret theory is that the fish could be jimmy but i digress) then whatever!

see pt.1 for more context

so the next time you see a raw meat twitching, don't worry, it's safe to eat knowing it's very fresh.

curly's dialogue from the last one and then another (the how fish is made dlc used to promote mouthwashing), because i feel like it's an interesting insight:

it's easy to get on this boat when you have to. you say to yourself, this is just temporary. just until i get what i need. got bigger things planned! then suddenly you're one year in, five years. ten. first i couldn't stand the constant, constant noise. now i can't sleep without it. a lot of things can't follow you out here. but it also means the outside world moves on without you. won't even notice until it's too late... easy to get on, hard to leave.

do you want to hear a joke? three men are in the hospital. the first man cries "i lost both my hands, they told me i'll never work again!" - the second man wails "i lost both my legs, they told me i'll never work again!" - the third man? he rejoices "i lost my hearing, they'll never be able to tell me i'm fired again!" hahahah! good one, huh?

next comes spite. first it stares back at you in the mirror. then it's those around you. they're wearing your face, and you theirs... you know. he joined because of me. what were the words i used? ah, right. "it's a great opportunity. easy money, just a trip or two." someone else's words in my mouth. hey, worked on me as well, right? change hurts, but worse things fester for a long time. i told him as much. i tried, i really did. we're defined by our past, but not slaves to it. we said tomorrow will be different. today would be the last day. the last one. the last one and then another. and another, and another, and another...

I genuinely think Mouthwashing fandom is a good example on how real life misogyny is very wired on people brains and influenced how they engage with fictional misogyny.

You have a story about a woman being assaulted and telling a man he trusted but being dismissed because he is friends with the attacker, and people fixate on shipping her with either of those me.

You have a story about how men that downplay their male friends violence, assume neutrality is the safer option, unintentionally help create an environment that's unsafe to vulnerable people, at a risk becoming a victim themselves. And people make it about toxic yaoi.

You have a character kill herself because she didn't want birth the child of her abuser. And people make AUs where she happily keep the baby.

Misogyny isn't just "I hate this women", it's also downplaying their trauma, defending those who caused it, and reducing them to mothers or wives against their wished under this idea of what womanhood is about.

I don't think we can separate fandom misogyny from it's real world influence, not yet.
