Devil's Nest, Tuesday Evening

Emma couldn't deny she was happy to be far, far away from wherever-that-had-been. It was much easier to breathe without an insane rock whispering in her brain.

She was here at work tonight, Eric's sign from last night still on the door. Why not? She thought it was funny.

The Devil's Nest was open, music blaring, and the hostess is about somewhere.

"Feeling better yet?" Jack asked, obediently extending a hand for its stamp. "You look well, anyhow."

"And we're down to our last few weeks on the island anyhow," Jack pointed out. "We should enjoy its charms, such as they are, while we can."

"I didn't, but I'll take you to Eurodisney if you want," Jack offered gallantly. "As for on the island itself? A few more nights out, some time with friends now that no one's ill ... I, Miss Frost, am a man of simple tastes."

He was a man who was full of crap, but the truth was, he didn't have any particular plans.

"For you, I'll even go," Jack promised, clearly taking the compliment as such. "Can I draw the line at clothing with cartoon characters on it?"

"A regular family outing," Jack mused, but the idea seemed to please him. "Invite whoever you would like. Do I really have to wear something with ears?"

He asked this with a bit of curious horror.

"Perfect!" Jack beamed. "The only other news I have is that Sebastien" -- slight eyeroll -- "called today. he's got a new identity. He sounds pleased by it."

Eric was in his usual spot, drinking synthetic blood (...probably) and watching over the proceedings.

Jack bristled the tiniest bit at the quip -- decent papers took some time -- but let it slide. "John Nast," he answered. "An Englishman. Aged 42. I think he was trying to pick a name no one would glance at twice, since Sebastien de Ulloa stands out a touch."

"I don't understand it either," Jack admitted. "But it'd be poor form on my part to question it. Perhaps he'll grow into it -- I grew into mine, which I am not changing again."

Jack laughed. "And when I get older, will I be able to pull off Jonathan?"

He doubted it. As far as he was concerned, the full name was for paperwork only.

"I don't think I could be less a Jon if I worked at it," Jack decided, making a face. "And Jono's worse, no offense to Mr. Starsmore. I'm afraid I'm stuck with the name I have."
