   Summary

   “What the f**k did I do?” - Jimmy McNulty

   McNulty takes to Homicide like a fish to water. Too bad it’s ruining his marriage, but he can’t see that more than he can see the wall in front of of him before he crashes into it. And then he has to face Rawls. Takes place before the show.

   Gifted this to people who liked my previous The Wire fanfic. Thank you for your encouragement <3

   “Are you f**king braindead?!” Rawls yelled just before Bunk and Landsman turned up at the door, neither of them knowing how to react.

   “She’s taking everything,” McNulty half shouted, ignoring the question. His body felt like it was on fire, but he was too angry to care.

   “That’s what they tend to do,” Rawls answered calmly, still with no sympathy, holding him still.
