Ch. 4 - People spend their whole lives wishing they were Jack of Fables
[Great thing about New Feather cycles? Lots of pretty new faces, all of them in skimpy sundresses, many of them in need of a strapping hero to get them settled in. Jack has been kind enough to oblige a fair number of them. Not as many as he'd like, as he's been beaten to the punch several times. Hiatuses, go figure.]
[Written]
To all the hotties out there, New Feathers or not, I'm Jack of the Tales. I'm in the market for helping out with some odd tasks. A man's got to keep himself busy, right? So lay something on me. As long as it ain't scrubbing toilets, I'm up for it. But just know that my usual line of work is hero business. It's part of why I'm so legendary.
[Some pen taps go here before:] In fact, if anyone's got any suggestions for a more permanent line of work, I'll hear it. [True, Jack is a conman and likes to skirt by doing nothing, but he's been doing that for a month now and it's going to drive him crazy.]
[Answers to his question or not, Jack is going to take a walk around town, with an absentminded dog-sized blue ox following him around. Jack could care less about the company. Aside from stopping in on the stores, he'll be having dinner at Seventh Heaven and later having a beer at Good Spirits. Also, he might be hanging around outside C4 for any new renters that have moved in. Of the female persuasion, of course, but he'll talk to guys too. He just won't care as much.]
((ooc: I suck at hiatus okay, shut up. Tags will come in spurts here and there.))

What, the toilet?
[written]
Yes.
[Jack might have written that in very large, clear, childish print. INSULTINGLY CHILDISH.]
[written]
[Smart enough to realize Sparrow is being a pest. Also the fact that a gold toilet would be pointless here.]

But sorry, he's most definitely not of the female persuasion. Still, he'll politely nod in greeting to Jack as he's going inside.]
[Action]
Hey. One of the new renters, right?
[Action]
A strange term when there is no money here to pay rent with. Do you live here then too?
[Action]
Yeah. I'm in Room 2.

...Why is it doing that? he wonders.
Well, either way, it's been over a week since Jack saved his life and the man still hasn't bothered him about anything, so he's starting to feel a little like he may have misjudged him. Damn. So he gears himself up and reluctantly approaches him, not quite able to shake the feeling that he's going to regret doing so.]
[action]
Arch. Up on your feet already? [He figured you, being mundy and all, would still be in bed.]

Part of daily business means restocking her coffee supply. So it's possible that they bump into one another at the grocery store - or maybe she sees that blue ox following him around and just zeroes in on it, missing Jack as he'd just turned the corner.
Because that blue ox is awesome.]

Like waterslides to get around, or a rollercoaster? Something crazy fantastic that no one would expect, but clearly says we were here, and we didn't let them get us down.
