Who knows, really.
But then suddenly she's dropping down to be eye level with him, and he isn't sure whether he likes this new position. Somehow looking up (or down) at her is better than being on an equal playing field (and yes Jack, that absolutely says more about you than it does anyone else).
He's smiling again to hear her question - or more specifically, to hear the thoughts that fuel it - the captain leaning in close without actually touching her. "You have no idea," he whispers. Which, if you look at it properly, is neither a yes nor a no. But here we are.

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.
