You hear that?

That is the noise of Jack approaching the farm, European folk metal blaring out of the speakers of the Coraline. He had considered arriving at Ruth, but then he decided to screw that idea. Jack Hollins doesn't fear anything at the farm, dammit.

So he's driving up merrily, singing along with the radio.

There's something exaggerated in Jack's movements; deliberately looking casual body language. Like he's pretending at this whole pirate thing but is really good at it.

"I have an advantage," he assures Dick. "Where's the girl?"

"Sparrow? She was inside, last I saw - the ghost part of her, anyway. Still no clue on the physical part." Dick wipes his hands clean on his pants, eyeing Jack curiously, and tilts his head towards the farmhouse. "You wanna get started now? You only just arrived..."

"I could stop for food," he suggests. Although that would also be outside. "Or mayhap I could just meet her."

Dick grins, glancing over to admit "Well, I'm all for right now. I'm worried about her - don't want her stuck like this any longer than she has to be. I'm just trying not to be pushy.

"I could dig up some grub while you meet her."

Jack beams at him. Anyone who offers food gets a plus one.

"Fruit?"

"I think Lucy brought in grapes this week," Dick agrees, grinning back. It's hard to resist that.

"Lucy is a queen among men," Jack says solemnly.

But he turns now, and heads towards the house.

"Go on in," Dick says, pausing outside. "I'm gonna go dig up some food - with you in a moment."

And there's someone on the porch that Jack wants to see!

"Thanks, Dick. I shall find our maid."

And he heads off. Towards Jo, but then Sparrow.
