Rome lay stretched out below, modern brick and ancient marble. He breathed deeply, stepped forward--
"Hey!"
Shocked surprise. "Buffy? What are you doing here?"
"Really not liking it. Heights: hate them. But I need to know what you think you're doing."
"It doesn't concern you."
"Like hell. Standing on top of a tall building, all billowy coat and brooding? Been there, seen someone else do that. Frequently. Either you've got a superiority complex, or you're suicidal. Which?"
The Immortal smiled bitterly. "I can't be suicidal. Watch."
And as Buffy screamed in horror he stepped off the edge of the roof…
Well, Mr Billowy Coat King of Pain (the original version) is theoretically immortal too, but he could still be dusted: he's not invulnerable.
(I gather I characterised Jack believably, then? I was going for first-season-of-Torchwood JH, but I've not seen any of the Whoverse shows nearly as often as I have Buffy. I gather he's not quite so bitter on Doctor Who as he was there...)
he's not invulnerable. True. Jack's more like Clare from 'Heroes'.
I gather I characterised Jack believably, then? I was going for first-season-of-Torchwood JH Yes, he worked very well. When he comes back on DW in S3 he manages to work through a lot of his issues, and gets a lot of his questions answered. All of which means that S2 Jack ought to be a lot happier! :)
Hmm - yes - I could understand moving from Spike to The Immortal if he was actually Jack... I all makes sense!!! And Jack would be all 'C'mon, it's only sex, did I tell you about that time when...' And then they could bond over lost lovers.

(Although surely with a name like 'The Immortal' she ought to have guessed... ;) )
