I'm going to re-comment this for Tumblr, but I feel lie some people are reading Curly WRONG.

TW // MENTIONS OF SA

While it is true Curly is a respectable captain, cares about his coworkers, and tries to keep peace, he is just another victim of the Bystander Effect. He is a man who falls short on his actions, when he is supposed to be keeping everyone safe and felt lead on board. It's shown he failed with Anya, whom she trusted the most, which butterflied its way into the rest of the crew.

Of course, he didn't intend to hurt the "working class". He didn't intend to make his friends/coworkers feel inferior because of his position, but he indefinitely did. Though, Jimmy was the only one to take it intense. This is the way I see Curly, and maybe how the game wanted us to see him too. Blonde, blue eyed, perfect, well-liked, like he had a halo around him at all times. Like he was just a "yes man" golden retriever type who could do more than his coworkers could. (i.e. his dreams of getting a house and being promoted after hopping off the ship, fall in love.. something his coworkers probably couldnt do, like Anya not being able to do medical school, or Daisuke doing much with his baseball career/shortcomings). Which, i feel Curly seems humble about, i.e. sticking up for the crew and telling them about them all getting fired (i dont rlly remember if Curly was going to leave/find a better job oops), wanting his friends to know he cares and wants to be there for them.

It's like he was a magnetic man who could lure in anything he wanted with nothing but a good attitude, but because he never experienced so much bad, he didn't know how to help Anya. He couldn't perceive or realize his OWN FRIEND could do that. He even tried to patch up the situation for both of them INSTEAD of siding with Anya. He couldn't in the way that he felt like he should be a go-lucky guy, a peacemaker. Like how another character I compare him to says, "You're better at delivering sad news. I'm a good news kind of guy. (Mr. Peanutbutter)." People just want to see him as happy, this go getter, this leader who did no wrong and could make everyone in a room hyped. And Curly, being played that role maybe his entire life, never figured out how to deal with severe negatives, just like with Anya's SA. It's incredibly sad, disappointing. If only he knew to take anyone accountable for their actions/to confront Jimmy, to report him, to support Anya..

He's just as guilty as Jimmy in the sense that he never spoke up. And not speaking about a crime you witness is just as big as the sin.

I love Curly, but DAMN.

Someone needs to hold him accountable too. Just because you care doesn't mean anything. Actions are truly louder than words, which were both taken from him by the time of his demise. A tragic character that could've been saved with logic.

also i was looking for mouthwasing walkthrough videos (i needed references for that last picture) and it's odd how some of them are like "a game where people have to eat mouthwash to survive" this is so not what the game is about even without spoilers and stuff. they didn't even do that. they had four months of rations and capitan curly.

!!MOUTHWASING SPOILERS!!! (im confused someone help)

Did jimmy s/a Anya Multiple times?

i just saw a Lucky Lefty video in where she discusses how its inferred that Jimmy had s/a'ed Anya multiple times before getting her pregnant and Curly knew and did nothing. But i just feel like thats not true ig? - One of Lucky's points was When Curly asked 'who did this to you?' when talking abt Anya being pregnant, she responded with 'you already know. In Lucky's words this implies that she had been assaulted before and made Curly aware of it, and he did nothing about It.

Personally i feel like Anya says this because we see her tell Curly abt the VERBAL harassment that Jimmy had been directing towards her. (during the eval scene) Also if Curly did ignore his crewmate/friend getting repeatedly r-ped why doesnt the fandom every talk about this? i feel like its a pretty big deal (e) Did i just interpret it a different way or am i missing a big plot point? (disclaimer btw im not a Curly apologist by any means, he is an enabler who brought a mentally unwell person onto a ship and then ignored the repeated red flags, he is nowhere near perfect or a good person but i didn't think he was THAT bad)

TL;DR: i guess the main thing im wondering is if this was obvious and im just stupid or is it mr v of something that isn't exactly clear and neeu.. be interpreted by the player.
