[Hello Siren's Port. Today, have a lightly dressed Jack, minus the Kitsune Mask but with the ... ... ice cream, of course. Yeah, watch him enjoying some delicious strawberry icecream. His wife SIC saw fit to put him into an Asian style outfit, it seems like. Well, it's comfortable enough, and the evenings are still a little too warm, especially if you have been working out until now and are all sweaty. And he has one healthy blue eye. He's indoors; an undisclosed location unless you're a housemate and recognize it.]
That time of the month again, huh. [By which he means; that time during which a lot of newcomers are mysteriously coming in. Maybe the Core-Pull-Thing is only active once a month, who knows.] February. I've been here since February. That's eight months; 222 days and seven hours to be precise. I know others have been here longer, and yet I already feel like it's been years. I wonder what that tells about me and how used I've gotten to - to this. It's wasted time either way, isn't it? Even if you make a new life for yourself here, someday everyone goes back and it all becomes worthless. You remember nothing. ...You learn nothing. You don't get to keep anything, not the good, not the bad.
Not to be pessimistic or anything.....You gotta make the most of your time, and all that. However you do that...
[Longer pause. Cue him busy with his ice cream, and briefly looking at and placing aside a book which he had started reading a few hours ago. It's Yukio Mishima's 'Way of the Samurai', in case that would be relevant to your character. Reading...bores him though, for the most part. You just need to look at him and his scars and you'd recognize that he's a more practical sort of guy.]
Anyway. Since we're all in one boat, backgrounds and ideals be damned, I could use some ad--well, some information. How do you go about - [HRRMN. It's his luck that his face already is slightly flushed from the previous exhaustion, but if you're looking closely, he's is a little flustered, and not looking directly at the camera. HELLO. YES, THIS IS EXACTLY WHYT YOU THINK IT IS.] No. Who here has been in a relationship for longer than six hours while not trying to doublecross or kill each other and -
[And, like on cue there's a distant male voice GODDAMNIT, and Jack drops the icecream on his lap, whoops:]
Sunee~~ku, yuushyoku ga dekita yo! ... Ee? Shio wa doko ni modoshita? ... Bosu! *
[Disgruntled, and an almost facepalm, by which I mean he's holding his temple,] I'm just curious... hypotheses...
[Aaaand he leans over and shuts the damn NV off. Or at least he thinks so, because he just knocks it over, and it only shuts off after you hear BB leaving his seat and yelling 'Kaz, I don't understand a damn word you're saying!']
((ooc: * 'Snake, dinner is ready! ... Eh? Where did you put the salt? Boss!' Replies will be a little delayed, until after BB is done omnomnoming his - dinner. ♥ Also, I've mentioned to some characters in the past that BB is fluent in Japanese, but this was retconned in PW so that Kaz could do some more exposition. He barely understands anything. XD;))
