Kid was humble; people almost felt bad for hating him. The guy was perfect. Crack shot, smart as a whip, and then the bastard was caught at the wrong place at the wrong time.
And made a hero for it.
No one ever questioned just why he was on Elysium. He saved countless lives! He singlehandedly saved men, women, children, offered hope, and saved lives. Anyone who told the story glossed over the fact that the guy was covered in frosting, flour and eggs. Giving sweets to the scared children made a better tale.
He just wanted some damn donuts.
