highly uncharacteristic of Jack. (that's not to say this is a bad story, I like it. I just tend to see Jack as very selfish.) But he does act that way once in a while.

jack is very selfish but when push comes to shove - the man has a heart of gold.

This parallels that pivotal scene in AWE. Jack gave up immortality for Will- it's conceivable he might someday do the same for Liz.

A good man, despite himself...

[flameandignite]

he has his moments for the most part! even if it takes a heck of a lot of convincing at times, lol.

The man got his moments. :-) This shows it oh so nicely.

[flameandignite]

A delightful use of the prompt. 'strange and all too familiar' haha! I like that!

[flameandignite]

thank you! jack has his moments. i love him for it.

Jack's one of those good men who wants as few people as possible to know it. Then probably curses himself after he proves it on rare occasions. :-)

I'm sure there are days he would cheerfully kill his Jiminy Cricket. A fine representation in few words.

i agree! and it takes plenty of coaxing to get him into doing things that would benefit others and not him. or sometimes, even just a simple jack "mistake". he's a good man. even if he doesn't want to admit it. he can't help it.
