I think some company is overdue...

[moonsummoned]

Jack's decided he's in the mood for a change of scene. Most of his spare time can find him in the park or on rooftops, playing pranks that bring smiles to kids' faces or else just having a good time. Half the time, he forgets about what responsibilities and routines normal humans might have, much less trying to pass them.

But today he's in the mood for something different. That's why he finds himself in front of the used bookstore, browsing the temporary shelving and tables they've put out. He can only assuming they were expecting a milder day than the chilly, gray one they've got on their hands but that doesn't seem to stop bookworms too much.

Seeing as he can't really feel the cold, Jack's more than happy to join them and see if there's anything that strikes his fancy.

Jack reaches out and takes Anna's hand, giving it what he hopes is a comforting squeeze. He doesn't know the exact details. The story isn't exactly the same, but in that moment he thinks that he and Anna really are the same kind of person.

"We'd do anything for the people we love."

"Yeah," Anna says with a nod, certain of that much. If she had to go back, she'd do the same thing, without question. That, she thinks, probably says more than any explanation she could try to give it, either to someone else or in her own head. Now that they're here, she thinks it's all that matters, too. "No matter what."
