Sinks dejectedly (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mopes

(Other definitions for mopes that I've seen before include "Behaves in a depressed or aimless way" , "Feels dejected" , "Hangs about moodily" , "Hangs around apathetically" , "is miserable" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
