// I got this feeling, yeah, you know where I'm losing all control //
Smirking into his glass, Vesper pauses, blinking across the table before giving his head a wry shake. "Well shit, I didn't think of that." For all the shit he was full of, the demigod wasn't unwilling to own up to his mistakes; how else was he meant to learn from 'em?
"It's just me." Vesper murmurs softly. "Maybe Nova in time, but for now.." He shrugs, entirely unphased about Jack's threats if only because he isn't in a position to argue or bargain just now, and while one day he might be hot shit, for now he's just a crashed little star with a few party tricks he can pull out when he needs them, but not the sort of firepower to take on a man like Jack. Maybe one day, when he's good and ready for a dick-swinging conversation they can revisit this little negotiation, but for now, the demigod just nods easily.
"When you think about everything you've done and what it's taken to get here...you really think it bein' a secret has done more help in the long run?" Honestly asked, even eagerly, Vesper leans forward, hunching his shoulders as he rounds over his glass of whiskey and eyes Jack from across the table. As it was, he still had the luxury of choice, and if it really was such a bad thing for folks to know, well...maybe he'd think a little bit more about keeping that particular card close to his chest.
