[ This is honestly awkward because he's making it awkward. Jack may be creepy old dude status to most, but honestly...? 1912... 1958... :)
When he starts apologizing, a hand goes up to rub at her neck, as if she's awkward too. He talks about age and she doesn't get it - or seemingly doesn't get it. I mean, this was actually stored away with the fact that he wasn't...stupid. He read a situation - the profile card ages - and came to a conclusion.
...And that's why she wants to pursue this. To have him keep thinking and turning those gears. ]
No apologies are needed. [ She says with an honest, sunny smile. ] I'm sorry for laying it on so thick back there myself!
[ Her own words drip in a raspy, succulent slowness that emphasizes on thick. ]
Where I'm from, most people settle down by 18. Guess there's a difference in what's acceptable. You don't have to hang yourself, you know. Mistakes happen. [ She gives a shrug. ] Shame though, I enjoyed your company.
