Haven't Mouthwashing Posted In A While But, I Love Anya Fancanons And Fanart Because I HATE That We Never

Haven't Mouthwashing posted in a while but, I love Anya fancanons and fanart because I HATE that we never get to see the true her in the game. Anya isn't and hasn't ever been a shy, quiet, timid woman. She went to medical school 8 goddamn times!!!!! She is not a quitter!!!!!!! She took a job as a NURSE on a fucking SPACE FREIGHTER after failing medical school 8 times because she was CONFUDENT in her own ability!!!!!!! Everyone in the crew absolutely ADORES her!!!!! She takes care of their mental health, their health in general, she's perceptive enough to prevent 4/5 people on the freighter from going insane!!!! She's charismatic and kind and confident!!!!

We see her how she is in the game because the player character is her damn rapist. And when we play as Curly, she's talking about him and being IGNORED!! (Curly when I catch you Curly)

The whole game she's staring at a guy who CRASHED THE SHIP trying to kill everyone who could implicate his crimes. And she doesn't know this, but she knows that he's dangerous enough that she hid the weapons from him. That she BEGGED Curly to hide the weapons from him because she was afraid for her LIFE. She spends the entire game getting talked down to, berated, and abused by this man. It's safe to say her actions are those of someone who's afraid or someone who's been broken down so much over months that she lost who she was, or a little bit of both.

I think the truest we see Anya is right before her death. In that moment, she's joyous. She talks highly of herself. She makes little jabs at Jimmy, knowing he won't be able to hurt her anymore. Because as much as he screams at her and pounds on the door, the medical room door is the only door with a lock on it. And if nobody else will defend her, that damn door will.
