week 11 - sunday (i guess?? after all the shit goes down)

[ Jack hadn't quite forgotten about wanting to talk to Dorian, but for a while after things calm down (at least, so much as they could), Jack just keeps to himself in silence. It's pretty clear that whatever the Queen had shown him had shaken him, since a thoughtful, pensive silence didn't exactly suit the person Jack had been up to this point... But whatever it is, eventually he at least decides that it can't stall him.

He'll take the time to ask Luke to accompany him, and Adam comes along as a result, which Jack doesn't actually object to at all in this case. He seems distracted more than actually really caring one way or another, and that carries to when the group goes to find Dorian too.

Still, that said, it might not exactly be a bad thing. Jack is more subdued by now, hardly the argumentative and baiting tone he'd been carrying earlier. ]

So. You had something to say to me, as I recall. Hope you don't mind me bringing my clique, since, y'know, not the most trusting guy.

week 11 - sunday after everything goes 2 hell

[ Jack has admittedly not had the best time when interacting with the Queen earlier, and if Yuno has been watching, that's probably pretty obvious. While everyone drinks (Yuno included, tsk tsk), Jack abstains in silence. His thoughts are pretty clearly elsewhere, and for a long time, he's not quite open to talking to anyone.

However, whether he snaps out of it or simply pushes himself forward, eventually he does at least recover enough to not be quite so brooding. There's not really any indication as to what he may have seen, and he's not very inclined to talk about it either. However, the person he ends up seeking out is probably some kind of hint towards it, though she herself wouldn't know, and it's probably not even conscious on Jack's part.

Wherever Yuno is chilling, Jack will end up approaching her, and through handwaved magic, I guess it's somewhere private enough for a private conversation. I don't have to explain shit. ]

Hey, kiddo. How're you doing?

[ He pauses, seeming to consider something, then shrugs before he adds: ]

...Kiiinda been preoccupied lately, which, uh, you know why now, but, hey. My bad for not asking earlier, I guess? You're- [ Another pauses, though this one is brief ] Nah, I won't put words in your mouth here. Let's start with the basic one first.
