Summary
We all remember “Mouthwashing,” and what a bastard Jimmy was; he's a man who lashes out, consumed by fury and convinced the world has done him wrong.
However, in this alternate universe, that rage never makes it out. Instead, it festers inward. This Jimmy doesn’t scream. He doesn’t lash out. He’s quiet, steady, composed—always one step ahead in the cockpit, always double-checking his work even when it’s perfect. In fact, one might say he's competent, reliable, and even a model co-pilot.
But inside, he’s rotting.
Behind every practiced smile is a scream. Behind every successful mission is the gnawing certainty that it was just luck. And behind every reflection in the glass, there’s a fear he can’t quite name.
Still, he tells himself it’s fine. That he’s fine. Because no one wants the truth, not really—they want the version of you that can keep it together. So he plays the part, buries the weight, and keeps moving forward like that alone will be enough.
Of course, this can't last forever. And so one question remains: Can this Jimmy find a way back to himself? Or is it already too late—and all that’s left is how long he can hold it together before it all comes undone?
