Men do love to leave their deposits, and are fair reluctant to collect the returns!

It might be gritty and gross, but I loved it! I guess that speaks for my taste, eh?

A handy job of portraying the Jack's fog of reality--the one brought on by drink, at least. There seems to be several different layers to his world.

"..his eldest son.." There seems to be a bit of a hint there, hmmm? I think we're all big enough girls here to know that one can only fire a gun a certain amount of times before it finally hits something.

Good stuff! I know all too well how those little dark things can niggle at your brain until you finally let them out into the light of day. Thank you for sharing....Kerry

I was quite proud of that all, actually. Dirty and confused is fun to write. So thanks, glad it came across, and that you have such tastes. ;D

What is the saying? Reality is all a point of view? Something like that. I think Jack can view it so many different ways.

*cackles* And sometimes one shot can hit more than one. (That's all I have to say on that... for now. ^^)

Thank you very much for the nice comment. It was my pleasure. ^^

Hahaha! Despite the quasi-grossness, I like this and I think it's rather funny.

even more often, it was that sort of trouble he had trouble getting out of.

I like that! It's a very Jack-ish turn of phrase!

Jack tends to be a harder POV for me, so I applaud your lovely little fic here for providing a most entertaining glimpse into Jack's brain!!

I tried hard to get that dirty/disgusting matter in there- all the more realistic, and all that. Its what the heat does to me- I swear. If its funny, of course, all the better. However- I didn't intend for Jack to be drunk- but he insisted. Payment for making him faint, I think. *wink*

Thank you. *blushes* I've always loved Jack (literally from the first scene)- his is the most natural POV for me to write, in all honesty.

Thank you agaqin for the lovely comment. Always like hearing from you. ^^

There are just so many many layers to Jack that it tends to be quite difficult to peek into his brain and toddle around for a bit. For me, at least. Which is why I'm always greatly enamored with good Jack-POVs. ^.^

[pearly_dreams]

I see. ^^ Understandable, I suppose. Jack is so much fun to read- its just hard to find anything with him but without Elizabeth or not some AWE aftermath. *glares* Irritating, it is.

*hugs* I'm late to the party, but I am SO happy you finally posted this! You know I love the concept, and rereading it again, I am even more impressed with your Jack-voice than before. I envy anyone who can really write him well, and you do. The mix of gritty reality and humor is excellent, and the concept of Jack!Daddy still makes me laugh (or cackle in an evil sort of way) every time. I can't wait to read the next part. :)

[pearly_dreams]

Aw thanks! *hugs back* I thought you might like to finally see it up. ^^

I noticed after I posted it that I forgot to blame you- maybe I'll remember to next part. xD

Because I still say its ALL your fault. All of it.
