[captaininnuendo]

[Jack is multi-tasking. He's shopping for shirts in Cinna's shop while simultaneously looking for a job and catching up with Gwen. He's pulled on a nice dress shirt and buttoned a fitted vest over it. He flips on the video and without filters smiles brilliantly into the screen.]

Gwen! Rose! I need opinions and yes, I'm actually asking for yours. Either of you. Both of you. My closet is very sad right now. Cinna, I could use some replacement coats for those just in case moments that tend to arise now and then.

[He's obviously both inspecting himself in a mirror that is beyond the device and continuing to chat away as his hands come up to smooth back the sides of his hair. He might be thinking he needs a haircut.]

And while I'm bothering everyone, I'd like to speak with Tony Stark or anyone who runs City Solutions. I need a job.

And Doctors, next time you hold a party like the one you held this weekend, I expect to be invited.

[And now he's done, the video feed ending abruptly as he goes off in search of more clothing to make him look even more spectacular, of course.]

You don't pay me enough to make me want to shop with you.

voice

[captaininnuendo]

But would you rather seed my vanity a little or live with me while I have a self esteem issue because of so few clothing options to choose from? Come on, Gwen. You know a happy me is a happy living space for the both of us. Plus I might buy you a thing or two.

voice

[likeabreath]

I'm shocked you don't just walk about naked.

[Dear God, did she just say that?]

... fine. I'll be down there in a few. Wait for me?

voice

[captaininnuendo]

I do when you aren't home. And the alternative can definitely be arranged.

[Yep. He just said that. And of course his alternative isn't to put clothes on all the time. It's to be naked when she's there too.]

Oh Gwen, you know I'll always wait for you. [Flirt, flirt, flirt.]

voice

[likeabreath]

[There's a soft snort before she hangs up, but sure enough, she's walking into Cinna's shop fifteen minutes later.]

[rehashing]

[ another en-mass curse weekend beaten without being cursed! clearly, Elena is special or her mun was busy and will put her into grab-bag overdrive. either way, she's in a good mood when this feed comes up.

She recognizes Cinna's because he gave her extra clothing when she first ended up here. Barely singed wear is the new in-thing you know.

And even though she's not Gwen and Rose? ]

I like the shirt.

[ because, this is public and all. ]

video

[captaininnuendo]

Well hello~.

[Jack is more than willing to take opinions from strangers when they're compliments, especially pretty girls who he is now grinning and winking at.]

I like that you like the shirt. And who are you?

video

[rehashing]

[ oh, okay. so now she's being grinned and winked at. ]

I'm Elena. [ you can try the flirty-flirty thing but she's not Bonnie or Caroline. if you were wondering. or, even knew them. ] Who are you?

video

[captaininnuendo]

Nice to meet you, Elena. Jack Harkness at your service.

[And that might sound very much like a pick up line in and of itself. But seriously, he's just introducing himself!!]

Are you a fashionista, Elena? Or just opinionated, and a very good opinion it is so far too.

[valentineluke]

You could always model for a living.

[captaininnuendo]

You know, I've thought of that. I mean most people would love to have this jawline. But there are so few modeling opportunities here, that I know of. And Mr. Stark was very interested in alien technology when we last spoke, something I know almost everything about.

[valentineluke]

And you ran into difficulty creating a feasible start-up business plan?

[captaininnuendo]

Well, I don't know what business I would start. You and I could come up with something brilliant and attractive... hopefully lucrative, but the Tribbles went away.

Action

[iwasherefirst]

[Rose is actually at work, but she's in the salon trying to arrange some appointments. When she sees Jack's post, she smiles and heads into the main part of the store toward him.]

The shirt looks fantastic and it wasn't that sorta party.

Action

[captaininnuendo]

Rose Tyler!

[Jack meets her with a smile and a tight embrace, lifting her slightly off the floor before setting her down again and pulling back, arms out to display... well... himself.]

What about the vest and you are such a bad liar.

Action

[iwasherefirst]

[She giggles against Jack's shoulder when he picks her up. Hack definitely got the memo on how to hug Rose Tyler. She steps back when he releases her, pretending to eye him critically.]

Like the vest. Shows off your shoulders and your waist. [She just shakes her head and bites the tip of her tongue. Why yes, she is blushing.]

It's...like that but not like that. [She loves both of them okay? One she just has sex with. The other she cuddles with a lot.]

Action

[captaininnuendo]

It does, doesn't it?

[He smoothes his hands down the front of the vest and twists back and forth, eyeing himself in the mirror. He does glance conspiratorily to Rose.]

I think since you're so close to it you can't tell that it's exactly like that. Man, I need to have a threesome soon. I miss those.

[threadthefire]

I think I can pull a few things together. I take it you're heading in my direction?

[captaininnuendo]

Oh I'm already at the shop. But having seen the curses over the last month, I'm definitely gonna need a replacement or two. I'm never without my coat. Well, there was that one time, but someone came to the rescue with a timely thrift shop buy.

[threadthefire]

My apologies, I'm up in my office. Let me come down.

[captaininnuendo]

I am here to shop, not going anywhere.

[As soon as Jack sees Cinna, he goes to give his shoulders a squeeze and a kiss on brow.]

Cinna! So nice to see you. [He winks.] No really. It's always nice to see you.

[conesoldstober]

I'd say the green one is worth keeping.

[Need any more painfully metrosexual friends, Jack?]

[captaininnuendo]

[He needs all of them. ALL OF THEM!]

Well hello there. Attractive man such as yourself says to keep the green one, I'll keep the green one.

[conesoldstober]

[Barking up the wrong tree, Jack. But he'll play along with the flirting anyway. Because hey, why not?]

Clearly you recognise someone with impeccable taste. Did something bring on this particular shopping spree? Your clothes weren't eaten by those Tribbles, were they?

[captaininnuendo]

Oh I only arrived with so many. I like options, you see. You never know what opportunities might lay just around the corner for a nice green dress shirt.

[To Jack, the tree is never wrong. So he just continues being his naturally flirty self.] And who might you be, MR. Attractive?
