That was wonderful! I think that was very 'Jack-ish', if that's a way to put it haha. I can see him wanting not to be there but having her say she needs him, seeing himself nowhere else.

I need him! she'd insisted to the impatient Susannah when the midwife had fussed about Jack's presence in the room. He'd not meant to stay that long; had wished himself elsewhere for hours in fact. But that was all it took, I need him, and he'd not have left her for the world.

So adorable. Excellent job!

Wow, that artwork is stunning. Quite confusing as well! -- wonder how the poor inhabitants managed their way around when they were drunk *laughs*
