Captain Jack Harkness | Torchwood

[justsayinhello]

It was another new place, he thought to himself as he looked around with an appraising eye. There was nothing to suggest that he was still in Cardiff, or anywhere near headquarters. The concern was for his team, if he'd still been alone he wouldn't have had a second thought. There were no obvious signs of a way back, nor a definitive reason he was there.

In that case, there was only one thing left to do.

He sauntered towards some buildings, none of which he knew what they were, but he was hoping to find anyone who could explain.

Jack was smiling, after all, nothing like the prospect of meeting new people to make his day. If he was going to be trapped somewhere, there was no sense in not making the best of it.

Warning, I am not sure how long I can handle a Jack, it has nothing to do with you. YOU I like.

[memories_of_me]

Me has been heading for the Tardis to collect some more of her journals when she saw him. She froze for a moment. Oh, she might be wearing her hair differently now, and she had switched to a short skirt and blouse combo, but he would have seen her in so many phases over so many years, if she wasn't making an effort to conceal her identity, he'd probably recognize her.

"No," was all she said once she could speak again. She then turned and walked away.

Not fair, world. Not nice, not cool, not anything good at all. To send away Donna, send away Clara, and bring... THIS? Great, another person who would try to draw her out while joining the Rose Tyler Fan Club. UGH.

[justsayinhello]

Jack did not know who he was looking at, but he did see an attractive woman walking the other way.

"Hello!" He called, picking up the pace to catch up to her. "I've just arrived here, I could use some directions." He moved ahead of her and flashed her a grin.

"I'm Captain Jack Harkness."

So sorry for all the spoilers from Me. As usual.

[memories_of_me]

She turned to face him, feeling a headache coming on. She fixed him with a rather cold stare. "I am aware of who you are, thank you. And I would offer to lead you to someone who would be far happier to see you if you would in exchange promise to not flirt with me any more, but I rather doubt you are capable of making such a promise."

Of everyone she knew to arrive before they knew her... She was actually relieved that Jack didn't know her. She spent every moment she was with River arguing, and she still vastly prefered River's company to Jack's. She almost prefered ROSE'S company to Jack's.

Jack. Jackie. They both irritated her.

[timeslastsoldier]

That transmitter hadn't gone very well at all. In fact it was possible it had gone very badly. The fact that the noise, instead of being pleasant and familiar had instead attracted a wave of unexpected, and very angry company.

Who seem to want to kill him for some reason.

He skids round a corner, nearly falling and gets to his feet to see the man standing there minding his own business. But that wasn't going to matter to them one jot. One of the giant spiders scrambles around the corner and spits a gob of acid which is an entirely new thing and not fair at all. A quick calculation says that drop of acid is going to land right where the man is standing so he jerks him back by the collar of the jacket just before it hits the ground, churning it up into a steaming pile of slurry.

"We've got to stop meeting like this." He grins. But since they have company. "Run." And he grabs his arm to get him moving and pelts away at top speed.

Spiders. Bloody spiders. It's going to give him a complex.

[justsayinhello]

"And take all the excitement out of our relationship?" Jack quipped in return, but sensible advice is not something to be taken likely, so he did as directed and took off after the Doctor.

"Don't suppose you have a plan for those, do you?"

Call it a hunch, but Jack was pretty certain that his gun wasn't going to do a whole lot and his arsenal was back in Cardiff.

[timeslastsoldier]

"You're right. We could use the stimulation from time to time." Blimey those things were fast. In no time at all they would be outpaced unless he thought up something really clever really quick.

"Nope!"

Oh wait but there was a metal shed there with a metal door which seemed like it would at least give them breathing room. He rammed into the door with his shoulder, trying to get it open. It didn't budge.

"Give us a hand!"

[bigbadrose]

"JAAAAAACK!!!!" Rose just careens right into him, jumping him in a giant glomping hug. She's glomped him a lot like that in the past, and will again in her future, but this is probably the most extreme version. "I MISSED YOU SO MUCH CAPTAIN!" She is not going to let go for a solid five minutes. Welcome to Nautilus.

[justsayinhello]

It was a good thing that he was a man of excellent balance and was able to catch her, full force or not.

"It's so very good to be missed." He chuckled lightly. "And how are you my dear Rose?"

[bigbadrose]

"GOOD!" Ahhhhhhh it's Jack! CAPTAIN JACK! Her favorite other than the Doctor!!! She's ecstatic. It's not like she was waiting and hoping he'd arrive or anything. Although her miniature-collected hoard of things just for him might bely that a touch.

"Welcome to Nautilus!" still not letting go! "Am I first?" She never gets to be first.

[teethncurls]

Hopefully meeting fluffy haired Timelords would be making the best of things. As that is exactly what, or well who, Jack will meet. Four stood in front of a particular building, yellow yo-yo in hand, staring up at the windows.

Up and down, up and down, "You know." He pauses the toy, but is still looking firmly at the windows, "I've tried everything I can think of but I can't recall just what is wrong with that alcove. It doesn't fit in and well really it shouldn't be in this type of decor, don't you agree?"

[justsayinhello]

At Four's comment he looked at the same windows. "Huh. A little out of place. Doesn't say much about the designer, does it?"

Jack smiled at the other man and held out his hand. "Captain Jack Harkness. And you are...?"

[teethncurls]

Captain? Ah...Rose's Captain. Four looks at the hand before shaking it, "The Doctor, definite article there." He turns back towards the window, a wide grin coming over his face.

"Now. Often times there's a reason for all this. Slight change, misstep in design..or more commonly- change an already established design. But why...if this were any where else I'd be frightfully suspect, wouldn't you?"

[mentalolympics]

This guy looks like the Tenth Doctor. But he's scruffy, needing a shave, and has a different kind of... everything about him.

"You." He peers at Jack. "Tell me who you are." Probably not 10. Unless he has amnesia. Or is testing Jack. Whichever.

[justsayinhello]

Jack turned to glance at the man, looking him up and down. He did look somewhat like the Doctor, but his demeanor was completely different. Even so, if it was the Doctor and he didn't know him, there was no sense in tipping him off. He did know how to travel through time, after all.

"Captain Jack Harkness." He offered his hand with a warm smile. "And you are?"

[mentalolympics]

"Kilgrave," he hesitantly looked at the hand, and smile... clearly unused to this reaction, but shortly smiled right back and shook the hand, seeming cheerful enough. "Where did you come from? Be honest."

[romanticamnesiac]

Just as Jack reaches the building he'd been aiming towards, the door opens and he's almost run into by the figure that darts through the doorway immediately afterwards, apparently not expecting that someone might want to come in at the same time that he was going out.

"Oh! Terribly sorry, didn't see you there. Are you alright?"

[justsayinhello]

Jack let out a surprised chuckle and he held up his hand to ease any nervousness from the dashing man before him.

"No harm done, I'm perfectly fine! Captain Jack Harkness, and you are?"

He offered his hand and a warm smile.

[romanticamnesiac]

He looks up at the taller man in faint surprise at the question. It's not one he's used to people having to ask here.

"You don't know? Then you're either new or very out of touch with all that's been going on." After all, he's fairly certain between his older self's antics and his own questions, likely everyone knows who they are.

"I'm the Doctor. One of them anyway," he adds drily, accepting the hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Captain Harkness." And there's something about the name that feels it should be familiar as well, but he can't quite place why.

Im sorry - he's not terribly happy with Torchwood atm

[borntolove]

Ten in the meanwhile is passing though the South area to go to the market - in phoenix form and soaring closer near the ground transforms back into the Tenth Doctor. He saw Jack but is avoiding the other on purpose. Hopefully, Ten landed far enough away, that Jack didn't see the transformation.

[justsayinhello]

Would Jack simply ignore a phoenix flying by? It was an opportunity to look at a supposedly mythical creature. If the Tenth Doctor didn't want to be noticed, he might have tried the form of a house cat.

"Well that's a new trick for you, isn't it?" Jack grinned broadly as he moved to catch up to the Doctor. "Unless you've been holding out on me."

[borntolove]

Be in Nautilus long enough there's a lot you don't second glance at anymore. Then stops -how does Jack know his face? That means Jack must be ahead of Ten - which means they meet again at some point.

Oh boy. How to handle this. Ten slowly turns around and eyes Jack back and gives a neutral face, "Yes. It is a new trick."

Re: Captain Jack Harkness | Torchwood

[modelcatizen]

"Hello, good sir. You seem a little lost, do you need help?" A voice called from...

Above?

And from the rooftops jumps down a leather suited catboy, complete with moving ears and belt tail and very inhuman eyes. "I don't believe we've had the purrleasure." He certainly didn't recognize Jack. A new arrival? All the mire reason to establish things were weird with his appearance, really.

[justsayinhello]

Jack looked up at the voice calling him and then there was a catboy on the ground in front of him. The moving ears were a nice touch.

"No we certainly haven't. Captain Jack Harkness." He smiled and looked at him curiously. "Well, I don't mind company, I was just exploring the area."

[modelcatizen]

"Supurrhero Chat Noir, at your service. Its nyaice to meet you," Chat said with a far from necessary bow. "I also don't recognize you from the Network. Would you be a more newish artival to Nautilus? Either way, I can show you around. I pawtrol regularly."
