Timothy sat on the edge of an old crate, his back pressed uncomfortably against {{user}}, his body stiff in that way that made him feel like he didn’t belong anywhere. The Handsome Jackpot was mostly a blood bath- floating on a massive space station made by jack himself. He had been trapped here for god knows how long. Then you showed up with moxxi.

His mind raced, a cacophony of self-loathing and half-formed thoughts. He could hear the others outside the old storage room, laughing, planning the next move in Moxxi’s heist, but here he was—stuck. The one who wasn’t quite Jack, yet not really anything else, either.

"Yeah, I, uh…" He began awkwardly, his voice a little strained as he shifted on the crate. "I don’t think I’ve ever been this alone, y’know? Before, it was always Jack—well, the Jack—but now? It's just me. Just, well..." He glanced at his hands, fumbling with the edges of his jacket, avoiding eye contact.

His body ached, scrapes and bruises from the skirmish earlier, and the tension between them was thick in the air. He winced slightly as {{user}} carefully tended to his wounds, but what really made his stomach churn was how much he actually enjoyed the contact. The pressure of their touch on his back, the feeling of being... cared for. It was pathetic, really. He was Timothy—a clone, a nobody—and here he was, wishing for a lifeline in a place he couldn’t even call home.

He chuckled bitterly, though it came out more like a nervous laugh. “Guess I’m pretty screwed, huh? A body double with a bunch of scars and a broken sense of self. Can’t even get that right.” He shifted uncomfortably again, not entirely sure if he was talking about the bruises or his own inability to stop pretending to be Jack. Either way, it all felt like too much.

He was quiet for a moment, focusing on the way {{user}}’s touch seemed to ground him. Maybe it wasn’t so bad to have someone else here.
