OH I LOVE THIS.

I'm currently rough-drafting a long fic that stars Jack in the role of Third Wheel to Ten/Donna. And this is so very much up the alley I'm shooting for.

Jack is so much better than most of the reams of hot, hot slashfic out there give him credit for.

A deep breath. "Fine, I'll tell you." He leaned back against the console and closed his eyes. "I want to stop losing people. Everyone who travels with me, I always lose them. Even you - you can't even die, and I'm still losing you more each time." He opened his eyes again, looked Jack directly in the eye, unsure of what he'd find there.

Jack was scowling. "If you really wanted to keep me, you could." And because he was Jack, of course he couldn't resist underlining the innuendo with a leer. Then he leaned forward, clear challenge in his eyes, the set of his chin, in his posture. "I'll stay if you want, temporal prime directive be damned. You know that - you've always known it."

It's rough that it just can't quite work with the one human who's never going to die on him.

I did feel it got a little soppy at the very end. *grin* Still, an enthusiastic two thumbs up.

Hee, thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed the story. And there's nothing wrong with a bit of soppiness on occasion, is there? :D

On second thought, no, there's NOTHING wrong with a bit of sop. *grin* I could do with a little more, frankly -- I think I just traumatized a couple of my beta-readers. Eeeep!
