Fit check for my new internship! This freighter ship is super cramped. You can barely see anything in the mirrors! I'll h- uh. Sounds like the Captain... Curly, I think? Sounds like he broke the news to my new boss. I'd better go check that out. AMA and I’ll get on it after my shift, yeah? Apparently we only get like, five hours of sleep! Aw man, I don't know anything about... Recording ended.

ASK BOX IS OPEN!

A/N and guidelines under cut! Please read before sending :]

Hi and welcome! I haven't run an ask blog in years, now, but this isn't my first go at it so I'll hop right into some rules and guidelines for interaction!

As a canon-adherent Mouthwashing blog, themes of abuse, assault, institutionalized misogyny & violence against women, capitalist and patriarchal hierarchies, rape culture, ageism, etc. can and likely will be explored. I am 21 years old and as such will tackle adult topics! I gently ask that people who interact do their due diligence not only to keep themselves safe but also to respect the severity of the themes in the games when engaging with Daisuke. While lighthearted asks are more than welcome, this is a blog run in earnest and out of a genuine interest (personal and scholastic) in the themes in Mouthwashing. I will tag with trigger warnings as I see appropriate. Thank you!

With this in mind, the blog is canon-compliant, meaning Daisuke only knows what Daisuke knew in-game (thus far, only pre-crash)! For example, he is not aware of Jimmy's true nature. Please bear this in mind when interacting and please do not be too surprised if his answers aren't as critical as a player of Mouthwashing might be. But not all questions have to be explicitly about the game canon! Feel free to ask personal questions or pose hypotheticals--I will tag headcanons and non-canon responses as appropriate. This is still a blog made out of love and for entertainment purposes!

I will periodically update the transit time in the blog description to reflect when in the voyage the questions are being answered from. If you want your ask answered from a specific time into the voyage, just add it in your ask! For archival purposes, the date at which he answered the question will be recorded in the tags :D

Call me Menta (he/him), feel free to directly ask me things you're curious about!! 💗

Small shoutout! The creation of this blog was inspired by @/ask-anya-anything, whose posts I ran into over on Twitter! Absolutely an incredible writer and artist you should totally check out!

Thanks a bunch! Hope to hear from you soon ☀️

were you friends with tat kid you corked in the head

Nah, he was a bully. We went to the same middle school but he played for a different team in the league. He got super weird about it and said some... pretty bad stuff to me. But I totally got away with hitting him! Even got to walk to first base! My parents made me sit out my next game. Worth it!

A/N: I'm gonna be busy for a few days so I decided to put extra effort into this response to make up for it! It was actually the first ask I got so I wanted to do it justice ♡ + I love baseballsuke even if I've never drawn this sport in my life

daisuke are you bisexual

I thought that I'd figure it out when I moved out. But then I never decided what I wanted to go to school for, and my parents would never let me leave unless I did. But I have some awesome friends in the gay-wait, LGBTQ community! They're the sickest people ever! I met them one time I went out thrifting. Too bad they're super-busy students, or we would've hung out more before I left.

A/N: Yes, Daisuke is bisexual! He's just anxious about picking (what he perceives to be) finite labels. It comes with the territory of your identity and choices being constantly scrutinized back home.
