ARE YOU OKAY

[@donzoday]

Something manlybadasshero pointed out in his playthrough is that Swansea couldve been barating Daisuke so as to make him think he's not fit for the job. So as to push him towards a bigger, better opportunity. But all that good intent had to be thrown out the window because a man couldnt take his life seriously. Fuck

[@tasya_nabila]

I shall cope this as an AU.

[@Jinro_Leaf]

OH fuck he did. Man manlys observation ares so fit for lore I swear

[@FoxGameCZ]

Also Swansea did make it clear that he didn't want to Daisuke end up like him. So this also supports the theory.

[@aether._.editss9095]

OMG

[@m1nto0]

Omds I loved manly’s playthrough too :’D

[@thegermanfool8953]

"the right choices are the hardest to make" -basically Swansea having to kill daisuke. The poor boy wasn't going to make it and his suffering was only going to get prolonged.

[@dubitataugustinus]

He did what Jimmy couldn't :')

[@thegermanfool8953]

@dubitataugustinus And for that; I believe Swansea is one of the most tragic characters in mouthwashing. It was obviously clear he wasn't a good guy, releasing his emotions with self-destructive outburst. Catharsis. Almost. He only wanted to ensure that his children grow up to be better than him; even seeing Daisuke as a son to him. Swansea never hated Daisuke as their interactions came off as a son / father like relationship. So Swansea ultimately knew that the poor boy shouldn't suffer anymore because of Jimmy's delusions of being able to save him. Daisuke made Swansea realized that he can be happy without needing to be self-destructive or messed up with a spinning head and an empty bottle in hand. it broke him to do it - yet, he made the right choice. The hardest choice.

[@bellatvlover610]

@@thegermanfool8953this oh my god!!! I have no clue why some people are hating on him since I feel like he’s a very realistic character and he’s not a bad person, at least not entirely. I know the game was trying to make us misinterpret his intentions at first, with the cutscenes to him seemingly trying to murder Jimmy like he lost it or something, but in the end, they revealed that he’s just a man that went through life and had seen too much Sure, he’s not that good of a person, or at least to the way he shows it, but he tries his best to change himself, for his kids and everything, he cares for Daisuke and even if his way of portraying isn’t the best, he cares for his safety. At the end, he knows that Daisuke wasn’t going to make it, even if they wrapped up the wound successfully somehow, they didn’t have a doctor or knowledge, they were already too late and he knew it, Daisuke was in so much pain already and with Jimmy making things worse, his act was a mercy, albeit an extremely hard one to make. Also I heard that Swan(animal) puts their child to rest when they’re suffering, love that little detail the devs named Swansea! (I love how he seems to have a hint of humor too lol, with his cute lil swan keychain and all, he’s a softie fr)

[@Aperson-rs4eh]

just wish anya got the same treatment

[@pichihime7]

Ooh I didn’t realize that Swansea helped Daisuke twice by using the axe. Once to get him out of the foam, the other to end his suffering. Thanks for spotlighting that, I love this animation!!

[@sunnysideggs]

^^^thisthisthisthisthissss

[@AxelKNG]

Swansea doesn't use the axe to get Daisuke out of the foam, Curly does. Swansea says that he would've done it himself if he could, but the code system prevents anyone but the captain from getting the axe.

[@cryfus07]

​@@AxelKNG maybe shoping that the True ( at least better ) captain would have been swansea

[@ekaterinaobraztsova4631]

​@@cryfus07 in the situation that crew ended up in, yeah, Swansea could def be the better option

[@1convergence]

Yo did you see how swansea broke the sun with the axe? I might be on something, but i feel like it resembles daisuke’s death

[@goingferalluvs]

If there was one reason I hated Jimmy so much it was when it was solidified that Swansea was saving the pod of Daisuke and the boy gave him a reason to stay sober and laugh. Never forgiving him for ruining these two

[@perplexedamanita]

That was the one reason?? Not because of what he did to Anya? 😭

[@pleasewakeupkyodai869]

[@alexno2524]

gorgeous. finally some love for these two. mouthwashing fans have been eating good lately but by god is it a treat to see such a good swansea-centric animatic when pretty much everything else is about curly, anya (affectionate) or jimmy (derogatory). which i love that there is so much great stuff to enjoy but man swansea's and daisuke's relationship is an underrated dynamic. plus the song fits surprisingly well! its one of my all time mitski favorites but i always interpreted it more as something romantic? but it does work for swansea wonderfully. as rude and abrasive as he is, he's also deeply caring and protective. the fact that he actually wanted the best for daisuke and even saved that cryopod for him and ended up having to mercy kill him is still one of the most heartbreaking things ive seen in recent horror media. also that parallel between the shot of swansea's family and kids and the door closing on that picture only for daisuke to turn around to face swansea in the next shot? amazing. i have a lot of feelings on the matter and can't type them all out. love the animatic!!

[@DaScallywag]

So incredibly thoughtful and well said! I appreciate it so much! 💖💖

[@beyondespair]

I have seen a lot of animatics with this song that are more of a relationship with father/kid mother/kid, mostly because of the beginning of the song, "my baby, my baby"

[@floppy_the_froggo]

“Jimmy (derogatory)” is so real

[@LocalCryptid_0utn4bout]

This animatic made me look up the game and I must say... well done. I personally love the dynamic between these two and also despise Jimmy for messing everything up.😢

[@scrumbo_2096]

with the shot of swansea's family i also really like the inclusion of all his doors being closed and all of daisuke's being open

[@sinews8slushies]

fuckkkkk their familial relationship and the way they had to die are so utterly painful. like, swansea found some of his purpose in daisuke, in his youth and his happiness. swansea, after looking back at his past and hating himself, was given a second chance at being a father. he does not prolong daisuke's suffering because he realized that he must not be selfish, must not be the same man who toiled in alcohol and anger until he ruined everything. he really saw a son in daisuke fuck you jimmy, everything would have been fine without you

[@sinews8slushies]

my friends and i talked abt the hypothesis of jimmy being the one burned in the crash. we fantasized about the crew going back to earth and opening a cake shop...

[@samiamiiiii]

okay thank you this made me cry

[@MaggotfilledFlesh]

Nah dude I knew I was gonna be sad. The dynamic between Swansea and Daisuke was one of my favorite things about the Mouthwashing game. It’s a nice thought knowing how Swansea was keeping the pod hidden away just for Daisuke. Bros a father and will always be a father, even if it’s hinted at that he was a shitty father and shitty husband on Earth that slight adult and masculine responsibility to protect your kids still shines through to the youngest member of the team Daisuke. I like to think that to Swansea Daisuke was another chance. A final way to show that he still wants to make up for his shitty life. Next to Daisuke Swansea is my second favorite character for that reason.

[@cheniso1]

THE SWITCH UP FROM DAISUKE HAVING ALL HIS DOORS OPEN TO HIM GASPING FOR AIR OOOGH THIS MAKES ME SICKKK 😭😭😭

[@TaeMelodyy]

This is the first mouth washing content that ACTUALLY made me SOB. There are real tears streaming down my face. This is so insanely gorgeous and the part where Daisuke was breathing in agony oh my GOD. Swansea and mistki is a combination I never knew I need. I'm absolutely destroyed.

[@m3ntallyg0ne]

Omg same

[@kasterat1625]

The scene when Swansea hit the axe through the sun on the screen. Must hurt him greatly to break his sun(son)…foreshadowing is insane

[@neon_honkai]

WAIT I NEVER REALIZED THIS I THOUGHT HE JUST DID THAT BECAUSE HE WAS DRUNK

[@JaimeeForsyth]

The screen and Daisuke were both "useless rays of sunshine"

[@spicy_pepp606]

Oh my god this is making me realize the parallel between Swansea mercy killing Daisuke to prevent him from suffering until he ultimately dies and Jimmy delaying the inevitable by prolonging Curly's pain.

[@Aceofstarss]

I HATE THIS /POSTITIVE

[@johnsmith3108]

someone else already said it but i LOOOVE seeing a swansea centric animatic!! this is sooo so ososo good and captures the relationship between swansea and daisuke in a perfectly bittersweet way, especially seeing that daisuke was in the hall of doors with swansea, both of them not really knowing where their life is going to go... its nice to see this after being on edge with swansea the whole game cuz of red herrings LOOL

[@DaScallywag]

REALLL

[@pix.L.404]

I think Swansea is such a sad character, we truly only got to see the worst of him. Even before the accident, being in the ship probably made him bitter and cynical due to the isolation. I would bet a million dollars that if you met him back home he would be much nicer. Like, a father who enjoyed spending time with his kids (becouse he didnt get much of it). HE HAD BEEN SOBER FOR YEARS. The accident and being traped with his addiction (alcohol) really brought out the worst of him. And he still was a fundamentally good man. His priority was to try and save Daisuke. Genuinly caring for his ray-of-sunshine coworker. Thats some hero shit.

[@tsurururuu]

1:28 THIS MOMENT GOT ME SHAKING AND CRYING I WAS NOT READY FOR THIS GUYS

[@bellatvlover610]

No cuz their relationship is EVERYTHING TO ME, he’s just a kid trying to navigate his life, trying to find a job, it was supposed to be just an internship, he was supposed to be safe and come back home safely, but instead he got a very painful experience instead, not only dying in a very painful way but also slowly starving too. And Swansea is a man that has seen the world too much, yet still trying his best to change himself, Daisuke taught him a lot and he became soft for him even if he didn’t show it, they’re supposed to be safe, THEY ARENT SUPPOSED TO DIE AND IM CRYING

[@Yaemsobak-o8p]

YOUR COMMENT MAKES KE CRY EVEN LOUDER

[@S1yaboo]

The fact that swansea absolutely knew what type of horrible creature Jimmy was and saw through how Jimmy kept Curly alive just prolonging the pain not letting him get peace (even till the end he tortured and killed himself to reach peace but kept Curli alive in the pod for more 20 years of pain just to die from hunger) so instead he decided give rest to our boy daisuke AND STILL DURING THT TIME THT JIMMY BASTARD DARE SAY "I could have saved him Yall DoNt giVe me TimE to think" OH PLEASE

[@shroomsyblooms]

only swansea-centric art i’ve seen so far - like i saw someone else mention, the other characters get a lot more love (except jingle bells) so it’s cool to see someone make something cool with his character. that aside, tears in my eyes bro. the part where daisuke was heaving and struggling to breathe is gonna haunt me. goddamn.

[@shroomsyblooms]

+ AND with a mitski song?? impeccable. really well done. kudos to you

[@yellowhouses]

i KNEW this song reminded me of a parent losing a child!!! IM NOT INSANE

[@Solararisa]

It makes sense that people would focus more on Curly, Jimmy, and Anya since the story largely revolves around those three, but Daisuke and Swansea's dynamic is pretty underrated as well. Swansea guarding the cryopod for Daisuke's sake and also finally coming clean about what he thinks of Jimmy was one of the biggest highlights of the game. The idea that he saw Daisuke as his son and Daisuke becoming one of the biggest reasons he stayed sober on board was heartwarming and heart wrenching by the end. It really elevates the significance of him putting Daisuke out of his misery. He didn't want Jimmy messing with Daisuke like he did with Curly. He was completely spot on when he called Jimmy out for being a coward and for being a shitperson all around. The only character who actually puts Jimmy in his place and verbally calls him out.

[@Katzzzzyyy]

mitski and mouthwashing is a LETHAL combo 😭 THIS IS SO GOODDD

[@kawaiipotato5851]

i think I'm going to explode how dare you make me experience theae emotions, daisuke couldve been invited to swanseas thanksgiving dinner as his honorary child PLEASEEEEE. perfevt art though and story telling, i love you and i love this

[@pizzalizard2481]

Aughh I’m a sucker for an older character becoming a mentor/parental figure to a younger character and this hits HARD! Trying to keep the youngest member alive to only have to mercy kill them 😭 this is SO UNBELIEVABLY GOOD!

[@kaorusimpz]

Oh my god. I had to pause and hold back my tears a few times especially at 1:28 dude. The way Daisuke was struggling and in so much agony, crying and not wanting it to end like this. How Swansea knew there was nothing they could do and it would be for the best to just kill him then let the poor boy bleed out painfully. This game is so gut wrenching and the fandom knows how to make it more depressing. This is beautifully made though, amazing work.

[@lemiere-5cr]

thought I wouldn't cry but then the zoom out panel w/ daisuke's corpse and swansea's bent over figure happened. something about how you've depicted them as small little people in a void of white just hurt when the lyric "someone to watch me die" came on like i will never recover from this.

I always look back at that moment from the game while keeping in mind that Swansea was canonically a father when it happened. This is a father who'll never get the chance of ever seeing his children again having to kill someone else's child, one who looked up to and trusted him, just to put him out of his misery from wounds he'll never recover from.

[@popcatcarl6662]

On my initial exposure to Mouthwashing, I hated Swansea for this. They could have done something for Daisuke, surely. He had a future. He could live. You reminded me that Swansea was a father. His decision wasn’t the choice of practicality - of a coworker driven insane by isolation and alcoholism. Swansea saw his own children in Daisuke and made the choice of a *father.*

You're evil I love you it hurt so bad.

AUGH and the way... :,[ the way that because the shot that gets split is the one that is Daisuke becoming Swansea's family in the aimless Hall of doors they're both surrounded by and how the moment before Daisuke's death Swansea talks about how he Could have taught Swansea a lot. How Daisuke was a light in his life. And his hope and light is shattered in the moment he knows Daisuke won't make it. And how that's all corroborated in his final monologue 😫😫😫
