Daily Cover Stories[]
When he meets a woman, Johnny uses the cover that he is a pilot. Unless the woman is a flight attendant, then he tells her that he is a photographer.
JT the East Side Longo[]
Growing on in Long Beach, JT joined the East Side Longos after his best friend got killed by Cambodians in a drive-by.
JT is a cover Johnny used to investigate The Silver Barn Collective. The backstory is true for his brother, who went missing shortly after joining the East Side Longos.
Johnny started to play JT as an agressive and rude character, but it put Ashika Pearl off and jeapordised the case. Johnny insisted that it would be less believable if he let Ashika walk all over him but he toned down his hostility the next time he met with her on The Silver Barn Collective's farm.
Johnny played JT to show hidden depths, recalling a story of going to Kansas to visit family. While there, he watched fireflies perform a mating ritual where they lit up all at once. This story softened Ashika to him and eventually lef to them sleeping together.
The cover was blown the next morning when his fake tattoos rubbed off onto the sheets and he was found sneaking around the barn containing the illegal weed.
