“Thanks ape!” Jack spoke just before Beast left earshot, the ride nearly made him sick, but at least he was in the guild hall, and his hazy eyes allowed to be opened once he heard Elle’s calming voice then the stern and unforgiving voice that was the ‘ice queen’ Snow. She wasn’t really the ice queen, but she certainly did make him but a block of ice on his package one time due to how hard she had kicked him for his comments. “Oh, you shouldn’t have, I man seriously… You shouldn’t have Snow. You know about me and you know I hate this magic crap. Please tell me this scope isn’t enchanted so that I could see a freckle on the ass of a rat a mile away. I could do without seeing that and I could really do without Merlin’s garbage. I don’t need this magic to do my job.” Jack spoke defiantly when he looked at the scope and huffed at the seemingly regular items the rest of the party got, but Jack knew better. He knew each and every one of those items was magical and had some special property to them… Wouldn’t be Merlin’s little guild without it. “So… You dragged me in here to give me a ‘gift’ I didn’t want, now I suppose you’re going to tell me I can’t work with Beck and Harry anymore and tell me this is my new crew and I have to deal with it? Huh? That about right? Miss Tightass over there with her little white dress all wet and soiled from the rain and this… this brute, Devin, beside me being the big, macho jackass that he is. The only one here that I actually give a shit about is well, Little Red here, and Elle… course I could care more about this pretty looking princess beside you Elle. Introduce me, give me a chance to woo you miss, and I’ll show you what a real American Man can do for you.” Jack said with a wink, still slightly slurring his words and swaying in his chair while he examined the scope. He was fairly good at judging when bad news was coming, and not working with Harry anymore was the worst he could think of at the time. Of course it’d be worse if Becky had heard his comment from earlier. The thought that she did made his cheeks suddenly flush red, he had feelings for his former coworker, but he was too proud to get rid of his philanthropist attitude to admit it to her or himself. “Well… out with it.”
