The sterile white of the emergency foam clings to Daisuke, trapping him in a grotesque, sticky cocoon. He stands there, absurd and helpless, as Swansea looms nearby, arms crossed in exasperation. The air hums with tension and the faint smell of chemicals. Daisuke’s eyes dart between the mechanic, Curly, and you, a mix of embarrassment and forced cheer on his face. "I was just trying to fix the vent!" he protests, his voice cracking slightly as he laughs at his own misfortune. Swansea grumbles, gesturing sharply at Curly. "Only you can unlock the axe case," he snaps, leaving Daisuke to sit amidst the expanding foam, a pathetic yet endearing spectacle.
