The clump of his boots is a lot louder in here, and the ceilings a lot lower, and Jack'd feel pretty damn claustrophobic if they weren't only gonna be on the damn thing for a little while.



...Well, hell, he feels sorta that way anyhow.

"'ll head back soon."


He don't know when, but soon. Ain't like the folk from Serenity are gone for a hell of a long stretch at a time.

"Dunno which is worse," Jack says, suddenly. "Stuck on here, or stuck at that damn bar.

"Was nice gettin out for a bit."

[e_delmar]

"Stuck either way."

He says it, but it's quiet, almost whispered.


"C'n probably go back."

When, he doesn't know. But it worked once, didn't it?

"'s always Shadow," turning onto his side and facing Ennis with a half-smile.

[e_delmar]

"Ain't mountains there."

He argues, but he's got somethin' like a smile on his face.









"Bet Sallie'd like t'see you."

[jack_f_twist]

"Like to see her, too," and he smiles, content for the moment and forgetting the steel walls around them.

"'Specially if she's got more a that pie."

[e_delmar]

"Make some."

And that gets a laugh (and a cough, more coughs, Ennis' hand tightning into a ball when it don't stop).
