day 3
[ So after people clean up the mess that SOMEONE made, Jack is of course going to spend 99% of his time in the tech lab. It essentially brings with it a sentiment of "home sweet home," even though everything is so outrageously outdated. Still, that never stopped Jack before, and instead, he's a bit excited to get to toy with some unusual tech. It's different problems to solve, and that's always something he enjoys. It's the engineer in him.
By the afternoon, Jack is already well into starting a project, though he's just doing engineering drawings and figuring on some graph paper. This also means more Fun Jack Facts that Rhys probably didn't know, since the drawing itself is more precise than artistic, but it's still good. As for what it is... Well. Jack's Hyperion, so of course it's a gun. What else would it be? It's a crude pipe gun, since that's what seems to be avaliable in the workshop, but it's still something he's apparently planning on putting the kind of attention to detail that he would give to something more sophisticated.
However, this is all just background, since when Rhys comes into the workshop, Jack looks up from his work. It's only a glance at first, but seeing that it's Rhys, he sits up at the table he's taken over. ]
Oh, hey- Hey, wanted to talk to you, actually.
[ He'd meant to do it earlier in the day, but he had forgotten, honestly... Look, this room is exciting okay rhys understands ]
Got a minute?

no subject
[ Well, if Jack actually was at half-mast, there is nothing that could be a bigger boner killer than this terrible revelation. He actually makes a sputtering, choking sort of noise, and he slaps his hand on the table. ]
What? No. No. It is not like Tassiter's beard! Is it? Shit.
[ This is a crisis of a different kind, and at least that reaction to the compliments is forgotten more or less in an instant. This is the worst thing anyone has ever said to Jack? He's pretty sure, at least. His life is over. This is the end. He has to retire as a hero now, lest he be remembered for having a beard similar to Tassiter.
So instead, as Rhys tries to run away from this situation, Jack is all too happy to encourage it. ]
Yeah. Jesus. Please go ruin someone else's day.
