Timothy catch-up!

When you first met him:
You were wandering around Helios, waiting for another mission to go on. All of a sudden, someone taps you on the shoulder. You jolt and quickly whip your head back.

"Hey," said someone who looked awfully like Handsome Jack. In fact, you thought it was him.

"Hey Jack-," you were cut off.

The man yells desperately, "I'm not Jack!"

You stared at him puzzled until he explained that he is Jack's body double. He also introduces himself, not as Jack, but as Timothy. Timothy Lawrence. You stare at him in awe.

"Oh, my bad Timothy," you say. Genuinely sorry for what you thought.

Timothy smiles, "It's alright. I know it's kind of weird. But I came to say that the actual Jack does need you to meet him in his office."

You nod and tell him thank you. You rushed over to his office and got insight on what to do for your next mission.

When they started liking you:
Despite him being Jack's body double, you admired him. You liked hanging out with him and enjoyed talking to him. You liked learning about his life, and everything he had to do to get where he was now.

Needless to say, he enjoyed your curiosity. Not only that, but he was so happy you didn't assume he was a major douchebag. He liked that you heard him out and didn't assume the worst about him. Everything you said eventually went to his head, and he couldn't help but obsess over you.

When you protect them:
Timothy was being hauled into a corner by a few crazed assholes. Insisting that he was Jack, and he was just like him. You quickly jumped in between the group and Timothy, explaining that he is not and never will be Jack. You told them that if the fight goes on any longer, you won't hesitate to blow their brains out. Your top priority at that moment was Timothy, a precious gem.

When you scared the group off, he practically pushed you over trying to hug you. He hugged you so hard, burying his head into your neck. All while repeatedly saying, "thank you". You smiled, and put your hand on his head, while you lay yours on his.
