i want to taste you again
"I'd also be gettin' trashed and havin' a helluva time in the Halenani 'bout now," Jack pops back at her with a shrug. Lucrative is relative. Still, her insistence on a body sobers him a bit, and he chews on his lower lip. Really, it'd be the most simple plan to actually kill her and to hell with the trouble. It's a sentiment that he (obviously) keeps to himself. "Even smart people can be idiots when they're backed into corners," he points out regarding his plan with the Fingers. "An' I know they're bein' watched - I do a lot of the watchin'." Well, Zephyr does. Same difference.
But she offers yet a further opportunity - and Jack almost asks why she wants his opinion if she's got her own plan - but that's all part of the dance, isn't it? And the scenario she paints is a fucking dangerous one to say the least, the smuggler narrowing his eyes as he considers it. He's avoided the Floating Casino since he started playing smart (it's easy to get a password when you might pluck it from anyone's head); too tempting to cheat too hard, to get away with too much.
He knows the ship, though. A smile creeps back across his face. "I know I can do that. Two things, though. First, you're gonna do somethin' for me while you're on board. Card player like you should find it easy. Second, as soon as we get back to shore, Iris disappears." He gestures to her. "Magic, makeup, shavin' your fuckin' head, I don't care. You're gonna look like a deckhand."

like a secret or a sin
JACK
Jack being an Abandoned is common knowledge these days, however his Telepathy remains a well-kept secret:
Magic: Passive Telepathy | The user can read the surface thoughts and emotions of those within a 30ft radius. Control is excellent. Note: "Thoughts and emotions" include anything written in a character's narration in a post.
Type: Grey | Rank: Mastered
Also branded with a small star tattoo beneath his left eye.
