JACK
With his task complete and the prospect of being able to get out of the overheated jungle and back to drinking away his hangover The Ark soon, Jack relaxes back against the trunk of the tree with a barely audible sigh. Feathering his fingers back through his damp hair, he's just started to enjoy the babble of the river as it flows past them when Vesper's next thought experiment chimes out.
"...I dunno," Jack confesses, though his tone betrays that he's giving it some real thought. "For you prob'ly not, though like you said, it'd change shit. Your sisters already know about you though, so there's that. For me I'd prob'ly lose a lot of my crew, maybe all of 'em dependin' on how they took it. Business ain't so important as it was, but the connections I made in King's End will be flimsy at best. Unmanageable, though? Nah, I don't think so."
Considering the wider implications, Jack chews at the inside of his cheek. "For both of us I guess we'd end up less social than they are already." He smirks. "No one likes bein' close to someone who's in their head, not usually."
