He isn't sure if he can't move or just doesn't want to. He doesn't think about it. Jack simply stares into the ocean, watching the waves lap against each other like they had always done. Tired legs hold for as long as they can, but they, just like everything else these days, give way. Jack drops to his knees and instantly his water soaked jeans ( Read more... )

OOC: This prompt takes place at the very end of this scene and continues into a "what-I-think-could-have-happened-next" type thing. The video referred to is this one, featured in the episode Not in Portland. This isn't binding to any Ben muses.

With face calm and stoic, Jack looked intently ahead at the man sitting before him. He knew that this was ( Read more... )

Jack: [approaches a very busy looking Hurley and Charlie who are standing hunched over the ping pong table]  ...what are you doing?

Things hadn't changed in the least. In fact, now that he thought about it, they had actually ( Read more... )

I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall during any part of John Locke's life before we came to this... place. He claims to have been a box salesman. Right.
