Hi all! Could I have some help identifying this lil guy please?

So... THIS is Mystery Jimbo, and this wasn't just a "unlabelled plant" story.

A few months ago I brought home a lovely haworthia, and over the next few weeks, I noticed a few out of place little leaves growing in the soil. "Okay, if it lives it lives" I told myself, thinking it was a little pup I could maybe propagate...  
But live it did, and bloody hell I don't have a clue what this thing is - but I'm pretty sure it isn't haworthia! 😂😂😂 I think a seed must have been in the soil of this plant that grew into our Jimbo.

I'm half-sure it's probably something in the succulent family, as it has those same waxy leaves and seems to be thriving in these conditions. But other than that? Not a clue. I've graduated him to his own pot today.

Any guesses? 🤣

Looks like a kalanchoe to me
