Jack Info Compilation part 17: Exercise (pt2), Crowley and Romance
Jack says he has “done skiing, ice skating and a bunch of other winter sports,” but he is best at snowboarding, recently doing halfpipes and practicing grabs.
Jack says that he and Vil took skiing and snowboarding lessons together when they were children, and Vil explains that Jack was “already quite skilled at both” and gave him advice.
Jack has been into winter sports since he was a child, skiing down a large mountain in his hometown since he was ten years old.
Jack is so athletically gifted that he attracts attention from Idia, who starts stalking him in order to take notes on his build and capabilities in order to add similar upgrades to Ortho.
Vargas is not impressed.
There are repeated comments that Jack is extremely fast and nimble despite his size, with Cater describing his efforts during Beanfest as “ninja acrobatics.”
Unnamed students say that Jack is able to close a 500-meter gap in a matter of seconds, and Ruggie comments that Jack caught twenty members of the opposite team on his own during Beanfest.
Jack can run for 30 minutes straight without breathing heavily and says, “I thought that was normal. Even my younger siblings play tag from morning to afternoon. They go for like six hours at a time.”
We also see Jack give a powerful kick to a tree during Beanfest in an attempt to provoke Floyd.
He succeeds, getting attacked and dodging with what Azul describes as “a downright jaw-dropping display of reflexes.”
Azul calls Jack’s athleticism is “frankly absurd” and Jade concedes that his team lost the game because he failed to properly account for Jack’s abilities.
Like most of the students, Jack seems suspicious of Crowley. When Crowley announces that he “went to great lengths” to discover a way to send the tsums home during Tsumted Jack responds, “Yeah, whatever. I bet another hole just happened to open.”
Jack has very strict ideas about romance: he says that doesn’t “need lots of attention” because “wolf beast-people only have one special someone, ever. That’s how it was for my parents and grandparents. They’re never apart, from when they wake up to when they go to bed. They walk together, eat together…you name it. I’m sure I’ll be the same. When I fall in love with someone, I’ll want to be with them for life.”
Ace and Deuce say that he takes dating “WAY too seriously” and “You’re also assuming you’ll get married. You don’t even know what you’re gonna do for a living.”
When Grim announces he would never want to date Jack, Jack tells them that it is none of their business anyway.
