[Hello, Siren's Port! Have a Jack Harkness showing up on your NV. He is currently sprawled on the couch in the apartment he's been sharing with Rose and the Tenth Doctor.]

Right. Been here a few months now, figure it's a good time to find a proper job. I've already gathered that no job I have here will be anything like mine at home, but I'll take what I can get. So. [Cue the charming smile.]

Served in the RAF, good with a gun, excellent people skills. What've you got for me, Siren's Port?

Hah, yeah. Don't worry about it, though, Cardiff's ...usually pretty dull. At least to most people.

[gabriel_gray]

But you know better, I'm guessing?

[jackedthename]

You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

[ There's a pause as he just looks off screen, then back. ]

Try me.

Remember that rift I mentioned? It's in Cardiff. I protect England -- and the rest of our lot from the beasties that like to come through it.

Which is a fancy way of saying I fight aliens.

You-- [ He rubs his temple. ]

Okay, I guess I asked for that one.

[video]

[jackedthename]

You did, sir. [A grin.]

Anyway, I work with an organization called Torchwood.

[gabriel_gray]

Never heard of it, but I'm guessing if you 'fight aliens' there's a good reason for that?

[ Does he sound like he doesn't believe a word of it? It's because he doesn't. But he's very good at letting the crazies talk. ]

[jackedthename]

I'd say the safety of planet Earth is a pretty good reason, yeah.

[video]

[gabriel_gray]

A pretty good reason, yeah.

[video]

[jackedthename]

I'm glad we agree, sir.

[video]

[gabriel_gray]

That saving the world is a good plan. Yeah, pretty much.

[video]

[jackedthename]

[Half a laugh.]

Well, is there anything else we should be talking about?

[video]

[gabriel_gray]

If I think of anything I'll call.
