week 3, friday night
[ WELL, that was an exciting day, wasn't it. Jaffar had the dubious honor of helping find a bunch of evidence that he didn't quite understand -- he's still not sure what a gun is -- but Nino was unharmed, and thus, he doesn't feel one way or another about the day's events. He needs to figure out what's going on, though - he understands that much. If he lets this go on much longer, the killings will find their way to his doorstep.
And he's doubly vulnerable because of the man currently sitting in the hut with him. Nino is out, no doubt helping those affected by the events cope or something like that, and Jaffar is somewhat thankful for it, for once. He'd wanted to talk to Jack alone. ]
Jack Vessalius... I would speak with you.

Do you know what their role entails, at least? Are they the one giving items...?
no subject
[ items or weapons, he thinks. It would also be a convenient way around "killing" people if one only provided the tools to do so. ]
They simply told me not to worry... They said they would protect Nino... But I am not convinced.
no subject
[He's guessing "no" but he'd also guess a blanket no for literally anyone on the island save Jaffar himself.]
no subject
no subject
[He knows how strongly Jaffar takes Nino's protection into account with like heckin everything he does. That said:]
I'd still advise caution.
no subject
[ but he'll wait until he has a reason to go after them to put them on blast. ]
no subject
...Is there anything that I can do to help?
no subject
... Guard yourself. That is all I ask...
no subject
[After all, he wants to survive just as much as anyone else on this island.]
no subject
[ Jack doesn't have the look of a warrior. NO OFFENSE. ]
no subject
I'll be certain to do so... Though to be honest, I don't think that'll be much of an issue. People trust you because you're a very straightforward sort of man. I think I've made some hesitant.
[It's not his fault he doesn't care enough when separated from his goals to put on a Competent Hero act 24/7!!]
no subject
He does shake his head at that, faintly. ]
People... fear me. They shall answer me when I speak to them, but none confide in me. It has been that way since I was born. [ he doesn't sound sad about it or anything - just matter-of-fact. Nino is his only real confidant. ] I do not see why you should make them uneasy...
no subject
Even though this one trusted you to know that they had a role, when you could easily tell others? That's a large display of trust, I believe. [As for that:] I can't say why either, but it's not the first time a person has found me strange.
no subject
[ maybe he's right. More likely, people don't see him as an actual person. They don't think he's the type to lie or manipulate because he doesn't even have enough humanity for such things. ]
You do not seem strange to me.
[ once again, it's not really a compliment - just an honest statement. ]
no subject
Thank you, I suppose. [He knows it's not a compliment but he'll give thanks anyway!!] My closest friend seemed to have that opinion so I'm sure there was some truth to it. I'll see what I can do to keep from falling under suspicion again, even so.
[AND THEN HE'S A MAIN SUSPECT WEEK 3 TOO.]
