Hmph. Gotta wonder why they give a crap, but— Nahh, who am I kidding, it's a power thing. 'Course it is, because what else would it be. Whole- Whole scorched earth thing, I dunno—
[ Jack rambles as he waves a hand vaguely, but as soon as he drinks all the water, he sinks back onto the couch as if it were a great effort to do even that. It could be, but Jack might also be being over-dramatic. It's a little hard to tell sometimes.
Of course, he breathes out a "good" under his breath to the other half as he starts to truly fiddle with those latches. One by one, the latches on his temple and his chin click away, and with only a moment's hesitation, he pulls off the mask. It's probably a strange thing to see it taken off at all, because with how seamlessly it molded against his face, it was fairly clear that despite its simplistic appearance, it was quite high tech. And indeed, as soon as he takes it off, it seems to snap to a rigid, truly mask-like shape. ]
That's better— [ Jack sits back more comfortably, and grabs a towel that had been sitting by to wipe at his face, but he laughs as he looks back to Fenris. It reveals one of the greatest mysteries about Jack so casually that he's almost seemingly unaware of it, maybe a part of his feverish delusion, because it's clear why Jack wears the mask at all. Underneath, his face isn't only heavily scarred, but oddly so with such a distinct shape. The burn scar twists and distorts his face, and one eye is clearly blind, but even so, he grins, and it's all teeth this time. ]
No- No offense here, Fenris, nothing personal— But you tell anyone about this? I'll kill you.
