Years prior
Maine was running down an abandoned highway
He had headphones in with the radio playing through his phone
It was hot and he was sweating profusely, he didn't have a single piece of cybernetics on him but had a respectable physique
His pace began to slow as he reached an abrupt ending of the highway that lead to nowhere
He came to a stop as he began blankly looking out across the desert sands
Present day
Safe house
Maine was blankly looking at the wall straight ahead sitting on a couch, he was giving off a thousand yard stare vibes
Dorio:Maine, when's the last time you snarfed anything? Here.
Maine snapped back to realities and looked up to see Dorio holding a small cup of noodles
Maine slowly reached up with his right hand and took it, he tried opening it with his free hand that was shaking like a leaf in the wind
His right hands grip loosened and he dropped the cup on the floor
Maine began reaching down still shaking when Dorio stopped him
Dorio:damnit, your shaking. All that chromes messin' with your nerves. When this is over, gotta refit, go lightspec, reduce your load.
Maine reached into his pocket and pulled out an immunosuppressant
Maine:it's just some jitters.
He injected himself
Maine:ain't nothin to worry about.
Dorio:(y/n) said the same thing when his symptoms started.
Maine dropped the empty canister on the ground
Dorio:you can't keep this up babe.
She sat down on the couch next to him
Maine:Fuck that. A little metal ain't gonna be enough to-
He looked to his right at her but found himself looking at David and (y/n) at Aldo's shop
Maine:huh?
Dorio:Maine?
Dorio started shaking him as his eyes began glitching out
Suddenly Maine snapped back and got pissed
Maine:Fuck off! Ain't nobody gonna set my limits but me!!
He swatted her hand away violently
Maine:made it this goddamn far without trouble! Ain't about to backtrack now! No way I'm gonna end up like that gonk!
