After what happened, after everything he lost, Jack had to leave. He couldn’t bear to look Gwen in the face anymore, he couldn’t bare to see a place that Ianto once was, and most of all, he couldn’t face what he had to do to Steven.
Jack was now doing what the Doctor did best; running. He’d travel the whole of time and space before he would ever go back and face that pain again. What was the point of sticking around in one place when he had all of time. It’s not like he could actually build up any relationships, if he did they would just die, like everyone he’s ever loved or cared about.
"One more," Jack slammed his glass down on the counter. Most of his nights were spent like this; little bars, small off shore planets, it was his life for now. He could forget who he was and forget the life he once had.
