Jack has found books!

OK, so the pirate probably looks a bit weird, leaning back in a chair, his boots crossed on a table as he soaks up Homer's Odyssey and muches on an apple.Bt there he is.

And he's reading the Greek and the English as the pages come up, all very interested in the fact the two languages exist.

"Like being at home," Jack admits. "Only I don't kinow them all."

Yet.
hero_farmboy: (attention elsewhere)

"Yeah?" Clark raises an eyebrow. "Where's home for you?"

"The Alethea," Jack replies happily. "Grandest ship you'll ever see."
hero_farmboy: (mulling things over)

"The one out back aside, I haven't seen that many ships, so you're probably right," Clark admits. "I guess you're not all that thrilled to be in Kansas, then."

"Won't be pleased to stay," Jack says. "There's always fun to be had in port."
hero_farmboy: (mildly amused)

"I'll have to take your word for it." Port? Clark looks marginally amused at that. "There's a lake not too far if you ever find yourself missing water."

"Is there?"

He's getting used to truth from lies with Clark, carefully.

"I may just investigate."
hero_farmboy: (looking just left of centre)

Clark nods. "North east. You could walk it, but it'd be a bit of a hike." For those who can't superspeed.

"A few people staying here have been up there already, so I'm sure you'd be able to find a guide if you don't want to risk getting lost on your own."

Jack's grin breaks open in amusement.

"What's life without risk?"
hero_farmboy: (not exactly moping)

[personal profile] hero_farmboy 2007-11-19 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
"Safe," Clark replies almost automatically. "But I guess some people like risk more than others."

[identity profile] ineveryport.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"Like freedom over safety," Jack responds quickly. "If I liked safe, I'd never have gone to sea."
hero_farmboy: (deep thoughts)

[personal profile] hero_farmboy 2007-11-19 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it," Clark clarifies. "It's just I'd rather people not be in danger, you know?"

[identity profile] ineveryport.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hear that a lot," Jack says, his smile fading only slightly.

"Me, I like to know things and take the risks on that knowledge."
hero_farmboy: (clark doesn't like the sound of this)

[personal profile] hero_farmboy 2007-11-19 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, I guess so long as you have enough information, it's not so bad," Clark relents.

[identity profile] ineveryport.livejournal.com 2007-11-19 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"Right," Jack confirms.

"Matter of viewpoint, I think."
