Under any other circumstances, Jack would have laughed at the kid for pointing a sword at him. But right now, she must've been feeling a lot of things, so he let that slide. Though the notion that someone could kill him was [i]very[/i] amusing. 

[color=6644ff]"Love, and the ocean... Ah, are you related to Freya and Aegir? Or perhaps Ran? She stole a book from me once."[/color] Ever the anecdotal one, Jack didn't seem too terribly worried about his current situation. Was he putting on a brave face for the kid's sake? So that she'd take a hint that there's nothing to fret over? Or was he just fine with this? [color=6644ff]"As for the Green Eyed One, they are not something one can simply "kill." I, personally, could not do so. And I do apologize for how this sounds, but when one has a broken arm, a sword is rather difficult to use against a deathless being."[/color] Truly, Jack was not trying to be rude, but it was just the truth. He looked down at the strange, glowing sword for a moment. [color=6644ff]"Unless of course, your sword is enchanted to subsume necromantic resonance. In which case, that would have been helpful to know beforehand."[/color] 

Jack graciously accepted the skin from Carolina. Oddly enough, he wasn't creeped out or phased in the slightest. [color=6644ff]"This will work perfectly, thank you very much. Skin is surprisingly elastic when preserved by necromancing monstrosities. One moment-"[/color] Jack fully unbuttoned the tattered shirt with one hand and began kneading the skin in the middle with the other, essentially stretching it out. He then shrugged off the red cloak, and the wool coat he wore, which fell to the floor while the cloak simply floated. Now that his shirt was open, these two could see that the slash marks were far from the only physical harm he had been through. There were [i]dozens[/i] of scars, remnants of burns and old skin abrasions. As he stretched the skin around his chest, he continued the conversation.

[color=6644ff]"As you were just saying- We aren't here for nothing. The Sorcerer Supreme of Earth has perished, and we are all candidates for his replacement. And there are more of us, at least two others named Madalyne and Annika. I'm assuming the one Klara mentioned is also one such person. It seems anyone with their own Cloak of Levitation is here for that reason. Though, I cannot say for certain [i]exactly[/i] how many of us there are, as that title is usually passed directly down to one person. If a new Sorcerer Supreme is not chosen in a timely fashion, Earth will begin to collide with Limbo, and both worlds with fall to ruin like to ships crashing against one another, as Earth is invaded by infinite armies of demons."[/color]

He successfully finished tying down the dead skin, ensuring that the pressure was secured. He then picked up his coat, ensuring Ororo's acorn did not slip out, and then retrieved his cloak.

[color=6644ff]"All of us just happen to be the lucky ones tasked with preventing that calamity,"[/color] He concluded, sardonically, before looking around this ugly room.

[color=6644ff]"Personally, I would be more than happy to incinerate this hideous excuse for a dwelling, but we have more important things to worry about. I will accompany both of you wherever we go for the remainder of this journey. By my estimation, we should have..."[/color] He pulled out his [url=https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/710908524602851461/1119736331170488442/image.png]enchanted watch[/url] to take a guess. It was about 3am when he was originally cast into Limbo. [color=6644ff]"Approximately twenty two hours to see this madness through. More than enough time to find the new Sorcerer Supreme of [i]this[/i] world and request her assistance, if we find ourselves travelling to her sanctum."[/color] Jack wasn't personally familiar with Magik, but she was known by many for a reason.

[color=6644ff]"I realize my presence may be startling, after what you two have just experienced, but fate has brought us all together in this world. For better or for worse. The night has only just begun, but I will do all that I can to see that it does not last forever."[/color]

God, that sounded so damn corny, coming from the umbramancer in the room. But it was the truth.
