Because if you comment or like this it’ll motivate me, and I’m a sucker for positive feedback, here’s a teaser of my John Hart with Jack and River fic. I’m going with this is my Tiphys Chronicles universe, so Jack and River are already working together.

River sat across from Jack, sipping a glass of wine and watching the rest of the bar. The crowd was mostly human, but a few other species dotted the room. Her smile brightened as a blonde man walked in. Jack raised an eyebrow and turned to see what had grabbed her attention. He went pale. “Oh God.”

The blonde man gave a feral grin as he flounced over. “Jack!”

“John,” he said with a wince.  

“So you know each other,” grinned River. 

“Oh we do, but he never mentioned you.” He picked up her hand to kiss it.

River watched him with a small smile. “I’ll take the ring back, thank you.” She held out her hand. 

Grinning, John took the ring out of his mouth and placed it in her open hand.

Raising his hand for the waiter, Jack ordered a double.

John leaned over. “If you wanted a double, Jack…”

River laughed. “Oh Jack I like him.”

Jack threw back the rest of his drink. “You can have him.”

John leaned over, hand on Jack’s thigh. “Come now, more than enough to share.”

Jack pulled away. “You’re wearing the lip gloss.”

“Come on, not like you’d stay dead very long.”

River raised an eyebrow. “He does know you. What brand do you use?”

John turned back to her, intrigued. “Paranthian. What do you use?”

“I find Halver’s does a better job.”

“Really? I don’t think that moisturizes as well…”

Jack took their animated discussion over types and brands of paralytic lips gloss as a chance to escape to the bar.
