Omar stole some of Jimmy's stuff, Jimmy decided to threaten him to get him to cut it out, Omar took a shot at him, Jimmy shot back.

[It takes actual effort to keep his jaw relaxed when he says it, because part of him wants to be gritting his teeth as he talks. Something in him still feels deeply, deeply on edge, can still feel Jimmy's blood on his hands, and he's tired of people not taking this seriously, not being willing to help, acting like he doesn't know what he's talking about or doing.

(Except at the same time, part of him knows he doesn't know what he's doing. He misses being able to fade into the woodwork, doing his job and working as a team with people instead of being the one giving orders, making really difficult decisions.)]


I'm not drawin' the line at where Jimmy got the weapon, but I wanna talk to him when he's not bleedin' all over the place first before I start bringin' everyone else in on it, too. And I don't think it's too much for me to be askin' if anyone knows how he wound up with a side arm without someone at least lettin' me know he was lookin' for one.
