              "I'm starting to feel very old with all these young people around.                We're going to have to start recruiting some older folk--                Don't you agree?" 

He's mostly joking. Mostly.

                "It's a cigarette lighter." 

And now he feels such a fool. There'd been a very dramatic few moments where Jack had all but barreled through half the people in the room to get to this lighter because he thought that she'd been in danger. How embarrassing. 

                                          "Uhm-- I apologize." 

[vigorosus]

pellinorisms.

              "Do you think you could show me that thing you did?                            The thing where you kicked your leg up--" 

                             Can he even get his leg up that high?

"Oh you absolute arse to you have any idea what a pain they are to make?"

           "No, actually. But, if you really can't make me a new one-- I promise I'm more than prepared to try and find my old one, wherever it may be." 

[vigorosus]

like this post for a starter!  i don't think i owe any replies.

{ EMILY. }

"…Someone took your jacket?"

            "I may have... actually... forgotten it." 

It's nice to know that, even after all this time, he has still retained some  of his completely useless qualities. At least it only happens once in a blue moon.

              "I don't particularly want to admit this, but--                Somebody took my jacket." 

That's what you get for using the Underground.

dulacc.

               "That suit. It looks good on you." 

Oh, and he smiles! Perhaps Lucan is just happy to see that times are changing, and the agency isn't allowing itself to get stuck in old ways. That would be death, after all. Or near enough.

                 "I keep thinking." Silence follows, and it lasts almost long enough to make one think that could be his entire statement. But on he continues, to prove such thoughts wrong. "About your boy."

                                                       ❝ You’re song. ❞

                she’s heard the song before — she’s not that far behind. a click of her                 tongue against  pearly teeth  is given  with her  twisted,  disapproving                 ( yet amused ) expression.

                            ❝ Gentlemen don’t serenade in the middle of the night.                                 While the one they are serenading is trying to sleep—❞

                                             though the gesture is a little sweet.

                 "I thought that was exactly when you were meant to do it." 

It isn't the first time he's been wrong and it probably won't be the last ( what! in a place like this? even if he gets through this, he's still going to have to learn a dozen lessons between then and now ). Still, he bows his head, even going as far as to lean a fair bit as if that makes his apology all the better. 

Honestly, he just ends up feeling a little sick and very dizzy. 

                                 "I'll make sure to do it when you're about to wake up, then." 

[vigorosus]

{ ROOOOX-ANNE. }

honestly…

               she’s been drawn from her quarters by the   oh so tottering-tipsy                melody being  BELTED  in the hallway. she is very sure this sort                of behaviour is not incredibly gentleman-like but… she won’t tell. 

                                             ❝ Jack — ❞

                     "Do you like my song?" 

That he wrote all by himself, clearly. True, this is hardly gentlemanly of him, but this is his first day ( or night, as it may be ) and he's allowed to make at least one mistake, right? 

                                              "I was serenading you. Being a gentleman."

And, in a voice so beautiful that it would reduce Sting to tears, he belts out--

               "ROOOOX-AAAANNEE--!!                     You don't have to put on the red light~" 

[vigorosus]

{ LANCELOT. }

                     she notes the keyword yet and chuckles, gently shoving her hands                      within  the  pockets  of  her trousers — she’s abandoned her tweed                      coat,   too  hot — &&  her glasses are so cumbersome,  elsewhere. 

                                                       ❝ I do try not to die. ❞

                     there’s a shuffling  about  below  their  feet — black poodle sniffing                      appreciatively  before  wrapping  around  his  master’s boots. Roxy                                               spares a glance down and grins. 

                                            ❝ We’ll see how long we can last. ❞

                 "I would suggest we bet on it, but that wouldn't be very professional." 

And he's vaguely sure that gentlemen do not bet on such things, and he tries so very hard to be the gentleman people now expect him to be. It's easy enough, of course-- as natural and easy to Jack as breathing comes. He wouldn't have made it this far if that were not the case, after all. 

And neither would she. 

                                                          "But it has been a while. How are things, aside                                                            from you not being dead?"
