Pssst look who's back in your asks again :]
Remember us talking about Jimmy briefly, for a split second, freaking Joel out because he remembers what happened in Double Life??
Out of the people that are in empires currently that were in double life, it's only Joel, Scott, and Jimmy. Only one other person would believe Joel if he said Jimmy threatened them.
Fwhip wouldn't believe him. He'd laugh right in his face.
And Jimmy knows this.
Roxie back in the asks what will she do!!
Give me brainrot apparently. Cause Scott canonically doesn't remember Double Life :)
Joel mentions it in passing. They were all having an underground market meeting with Joel showing off his latest merchandise. The topic of Jimmy came up as it usually does. This was an illegal market and he was the Sheriff.
"He threatened me recently." Joel says quietly. He catches Scott's eyes and Scott can see a flash of emotion. Please believe me. You remember too, right?
fWhip is first to bark a laugh. Joel worries something in his voice gave away the slight fear he felt replaying Jimmy's words in his head.
"What and you think he means it? Get a grip Joel it's Jimmy! He couldn't hurt even the smallest of bugs." fWhip laughs and shrugs Joel off.
Scott swallows thickly and adopts an half hearted smile. "Yeah come on, Joel. What has Jimmy done for you to be spooked like that?" His voice wavers at first and his hands grip his jacket just a bit tighter.
Joel is silent. He's horrified. Scott doesn't remember the lucky bastard and he was really counting on Scott backing him up. His one potential support system for whatever the fuck happened in Double Life.
Joel sighs. "Nothing. Just... something funny I suppose." He doesn't sound amused at all.
