((OOC note: this address from Jack is sparked by the events in this thread back on day 243.))


[Have one Jack Harkness, looking rather grim and very unlike the lighthearted flirt most of you will have come to know him as. This is the former leader of Torchwood, the people's protector.]

Something's happened to Spike. I think he may pose a danger to the people here. He attacked me a while back but I didn't think anything of it until a couple of days ago when he told me he killed someone else, too – someone who may or may not have got up again like I did.

[A beat] I think we need to be prepared to try and contain him, if necessary.

...Oh my God. I can't believe it -- I mean, I trust you of course, but like. I just saw him and we sat and chatted and everything was totally normal, I mean way normal and oh my God I had no idea...

[She takes a deep breath.] Most importantly, are you okay? And not just in a "I come back to life" sense?

[She'll have to sort out her feelings about her vampire buddy killing people or something like it once she gets her bearings. Why does it seem like everyone she hits it off with ends up being a bad guy?!]

I know, I didn't believe it at first either, but...

[The grim look eases a little, into a relatively reassuring smile.]

I am fine. It wasn't even all that bad, really. It's other people I'm worried about!

Doesn't that sound familiar. You heroic types need to let a gal fret over you sometimes!

[She is relieved, but still not thrilled with this info.]

So, like... what happened? Is that too intrusive? I'm just trying to figure things out, here, since I consider him a friend and all.

[He grimaces.] I’m trying to figure it out too. We’d had some fun before, a little banter, a bit of a knockabout, a few threats exchanged, but only in fun. Something’s changed, now. The night he killed me? It started out as banter – I’d hurt my hand and it was bleeding, so it was an obvious thing for him to go after, but this time he really wasn’t going to take no for an answer. I… assumed he only went all the way and killed me because he knew I’d come back, but then he told me he’d killed someone else too and they didn’t come back.

[Yeah, she's having trouble with "threats exchanged = fun". But well... maybe it's a testosterone thing.]</small> Geez. I mean, I'm not really okay with you getting killed no matter how many times you'll come back -- on the other hand, this place is weird sometimes, right? Maybe something effected his hunger or something?

Not that I'm like some vampire expert or anything, but from what I know that COULD happen...? [Wishful thinking, perhaps. No... definitely.]

[It’s definitely a testosterone thing.]

I am absolutely fine with getting killed if it means that people who won’t get up again don’t get bitten. It’s just when that doesn’t work that it’s a problem.

[Like now. He gives her a vaguely hopeful look at her suggestion, though.]

You know, I guess that could be the case, yeah. This place is kind of crazy that way. [He shrugs.] I guess I’ll give it a few days, see what happens. If I don’t hear of any more attacks… perhaps I’m just worrying over nothing!

That's very martyr-y and heroic of you and all, but there are those of us that worry about you even though you're indestructible, you know. [The tenderest scolding ever.]

I hope so. I mean, I really like the guy. He'd fun and I haven't felt like I'm in danger with him at all. Until now, I guess.

"Contain"...how, exactly?

[She grins, sitting up a little straighter.]

Fortunately for you, I'm the master of getting away with things.

[...okay, maybe a slight exaggeration. But, in her defense, the things she'd been punished for were just stupid to begin with. Sneaking Out. Casting Spells. Enchanting the entire Defense Force HQ. All no big, and neither of the Wardens had ever said anything to her about those.]

Well, for one, my powers work. Mostly. They're not as strong as they used to be, but I've been practicing.

[He whistles softly between his teeth.] That's your work? I'm impressed! Well, that sort of thing could certainly be useful short-term, though I'm not sure how long the AIs would let us get away with it long-term...

Tell me everything you know and fit in explaining how you were attacked and didn't bother reporting it until now.

[See Jack blush. It's rather charming, actually, a bit like an errant schoolboy.]

I honestly thought it was just me. We had – well. We'd mucked around a bit before and I had actually asked him to bite me. I wanted to know what it was like. So when he found me with a bleeding hand because I'd fallen over, I couldn't really blame him for finally wanting a taste. I had kind of asked for it, and it wasn't like it was going to harm anyone else.

Really, I had no idea he was going round biting other people too!

[She had no idea those cheeks came in a blushing version.]

How bad was the attack on you? It's a good thing you're immortal bad?

[Ah, there's a lot of things you probably never knew about Jack, Kitty. Probably a lot of things you don't want to know either, mind.]

Uh, yeah. I died. [Still looking a bit sheepish.] But I honestly don't think he would have killed me if he hadn't known I'd come back. At least, that's what I thought then. I don't know what to think now!

[Wow, you think you dance with a guy a couple of times and you'd know every detail of his immortal life!] You and me both. Buffy always kind of took the lead where Spike was concerned and before his return he was...not someone I would have guessed for killing immortals.

No. Something has definitely changed. He’d taunted me with the idea of it before, but it was definitely just in fun then, and it would have been consensual. This… wasn’t wholly non-consensual, to be frank, but I didn’t actually get a choice about it either.

[Which is the part that’s making him finally actually take this seriously. Well, that and:]

He also kind of threatened Ianto. I don’t know how much weight to put into that, but, well. I’m a little uneasy, let’s put it that way.

Thanks awfully for the combination potential vampire stalker and not mentioning you'd been killed, by the way. [Spoken in just the right tone to let them both pretend its sarcasm.]

[A little dry, because he's not really in the mood for banter] I already apologised for not telling you sooner, Ianto. I just really didn't think it was important, okay?

[An expression like he's considering arguing, then decides not to. He looks a little more honest and a lot more sad as he elaborates.] I don't like it when you die and don't tell me, that's all.

[More gently] I know. I just... didn't want you to worry, okay? Well, that and I kind of got distracted by everything else.

[He relaxes a little, giving him a small grin.] Yeah... yeah, I suppose it is, really, recently! This place is a lot safer than Cardiff - which is odd when you consider it's supposed to be full of criminals!

[And no, that's not a deliberate attempt to distract you, Ianto, not at all...]
