Another hard day of basketball and coffee drinking at the Hub obviously meant Captain Jack deserved to treat himself to some relaxing time off. Because shooting hoops was incredibly hard work.
There was a lovely little bar around North Street he'd gone to before, managed to pick up some equally lovely ladies and gents too from that area, so it seemed like a great place to start any pub crawl, even if he was only on water.
Drink ordered and eyes scouting, Jack took up prime position at the bar to do some well enjoyed people watching. It was nice to see some familiar faces too, what with the Doctor sitting in the corner.
The Doctor had taken a stop off at Cardiff. Why was anybody's guess--refueling of the TARDIS, just because the Rift was there and things always had the chance of getting out of hand, or maybe just because.
For now, he was going with 'just because'. He could use a pint. And just by coincidence, he stumbled upon a nice little placed called the Barling Brandos Bar. Good a place as any.
Nothing seemed very out of place about it, and he blended in rather well. He headed up to the bar and rapped once on the surface to gain the bartender's attention, ordering himself a drink. And then not far down, he spied a familiar face.
Why hadn't he done the right Timelordy thing like keep himself from being drunk? Oh, that's right, he wanted to feel a bit of a buzz. This was a bit more than a buzz, but that was all right.
He grinned at no one in particular.
Then he realized he was grinning at someone in particular. Two people, in particular!
"Jack? And...is that me? Over there? Blimey, I must be farther gone than I thought I was!"
Jack stared at the Doctor sitting at one of the booths, considering for a moment his intake of coffee for the day and wandering how hallucinogenic it may or may not be. He should probably approach, go say hi or something equally friendly. In fact he was just about to do that when someone at the bar said his name in a very un-Welsh accent.
".. Doctor? Uuh.. Doctor." Yes, he did seem to be struggling with forming anything coherant at the moment, though he was concentrating more on pointing at one Doctor, then the other over there somewhere.
Hallucinogenics in the coffee or not, he was having some damn fine viewing. This deserved a well-known Jack grin, really. "Doctor!"

Double take.
Bloody hell.
