“I love you, too, Jack.”

Sam holding Jack after the kid freaking stabbed himself T___T

(I wanted to draw this like, two weeks ago already, but then conventions and work happened and I had this artwork idea in my head AND I NEEDED TO GET IT OUT. Also, who else ships Sam & Jack in a protective!bigbrotherSam way like there’s no tomorrow? I’M HAVING ALL THOSE FEELS)

Another character ask thingie because I can – Jack

Why I like them: He’s such a sweetie pie! I love his innocence, his desire to do the right thing, and his love for others. Also, I do love how awkward he is. But mostly I love that he’s just genuinely good. 
Why I don’t: The only thing I don’t like is the “will he, won’t he” turn bad stuff that happens a little. I just don’t care for that at all. 
Favorite episode (scene if movie): The Big Empty. That little bit where he gets to talk to his “mom” (kinda) is really sweet and emotional. 
Favorite season/movie: Well… he’s only really been in season 13…
Favorite line: “I remember when the bad woman burned. I remember the universe screamed.” Because I love the phrasing and the image of the universe screaming. That just.. chills. 
Favorite outfit: His little FBI get-up in Tombstone. He looks like a college freshman attending his first day of class (I legit saw dudes in suits every year… in New Mexico in August… that’s a death sentence). 
OTP: I don’t really ship him with anyone honestly. Not in a serious capacity. 
Brotp: Sam and Jack! or Jack and Claire if they ever met. 
Head Canon: Because he doesn’t sleep he watched and memorized every animated movie on Netflix before he went to Apocalypse world. He’s been helping Mary brush up on her pop culture knowledge before she falls asleep (as bedtimes stories). He watches over her when she’s asleep, like she watches over him when he’s awake. 
Unpopular opinion: I don’t give a shit if he ever “grows up”. I like him as this little shining light in the messed up world. He’s goodness and that’s okay. Yeah, he’s naive, but having good people guide him is a good thing. And I don’t want him to be jaded or slide into darkness. I like good things every once in a while. 
A wish: He gets his fricken family all together again. (Yeah… long shot.) 
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: He goes bad b/c that stupid dick who will remain nameless gets his hands on him. 
5 words to best describe them: sweet, hopeful, caring, smile-inducing, warm 
My nickname for them: Fuzzy little antichrist 

Thanks! 

Character thingy!

@unforth-ninawaters replied to your post “Listen.  I don’t give a fuck what the show does. Jack is my…”

Yeah I’ve wondered that a lot.

Both before and after this plot line hit.

It’s definitely a possibility, but I just don’t really care. I’ve been writing him in my Saileen BB so I wanted to see what he was like and I think he’s adorable so that’s what I’m sticking with. 

To be fair to the show, though, they have set-up enough to cause suspicion in who this character is with his birth and also the possible mind control and whether or not that intentional. But, they’ve also shown the character to be frightened, curious, joyful in discoveries and apologetic. (And the curiosity and joy was around people he didn’t need to “fake it” in front of.) They’ve got a good basis for whichever way they want to play him. It’s kinda early to make a judgement call but I like him so *shrugs*. 

He could be a sweetie. He could be evil. He could do terrible things for great reasons. Only time will tell. 

And, ya know, when have I ever cared about canon or whether or not a character was a villain when it comes to whether or not I like them? 

Listen. 

I don’t give a fuck what the show does. Jack is my marshmallow now. Plot be damned, I’m going with “innocent until proven guilty” and even if he’s the best manipulator on the planet I really don’t give a fuck. 

I’m sticking him in fanfic. He’s going to be weird pals with Claire. He’s going to date Clark. He’s also probably going to date Adam while I’m at it. He’s going to be a normal kid. Unless he’s like… idk, crown prince or something or a mershark or whatever I want. 

I don’t care what canon says, he’s my duckling and you can pry him from my cold, dead hands.

The “I like it. I like nougat” scene is so cute because Jack just freely gives away information about himself. He shares his joy without restraint, without self-consciousness. I like this! Let me share with you! You are obviously interested in what I think! He hasn’t learned to self-censor or anything like that yet because he has not experienced a world that doesn’t have time for him. It’s so innocent and sweet please protect him!!!
