i want to taste you again
There are swathes of conversation that might be had, if only Jack could voice his response to her thoughts. About how she'll never see her cousin again, unless they find themselves dropped into Caido as well. About how she'd be more of an idiot if she didn't take up his offer, given what he is to Torchline (none of which she will know yet, of course). But she's sharp as a tack, as it turns out, evidenced by her questions, and Jack's smile spreads into a grin.
"I'm insulted," he says, not sounding it one bit. "You won't be running any risk with me, providing we play our cards right." Because Jack is good, and he doesn't get caught, and he doesn't (despite appearances) take unnecessary risks. Straea, he feels, is not an unnecessary risk. "I move things around. I get things for people that might sometimes be difficult to find." I'm a filthy smuggler and we both know it, basically.
