*laugh* Unfortunate insight into fangrrl's mind, I consider that stuff quite vanilla. Totally forgot to include it on the naughtiness list. 'Sides, I *was* typing this up at work, y'know, in between doing the stuff I'm ostensibly paid for.

And it's a different situation emotionally, so I think there *would* be a difference - nor is it clear exactly how much time has passed for Jack (subjectively) since Satellite 5, so I'm not inclined to automatically assume that his current attitudes are in direct accord with what we saw a year ago, if that makes any sense?

Still, fair point Thankee for wading through all that.
