AH, another clear blue day in the Red Keep. So peaceful. So Serene. So..... Incredibly boring. Well, to Jack at least. Kings Guard or not, he hated being in one spot for too long. Seems like going into the kings guard did have its drawbacks, as well as perks. "Maybe I should have become a wandering septon...." Jack mused, looking out over the balcony of one area. Oh, it was beautiful, alright, but Jack didn't want familiar sights. He exhaled deeply and ran his fingers through his light brown hair, one detail that really set him apart from the "common" Lannister. Oh no! He's not blonde! Jack thought he could've caused a heart-attack at his birth. That made him chuckle slightly. Becoming a septon would've furthered the deed, and annoyed his parents even more. But Jack doubted he could've done it. Being a septon requires some amount of devotion, which he wasn't sure he had. "Wow, look at me, getting all sentimental..." He muttered with a laugh
Suddenly he was bumped from behind by one of the servants falling back, a long black haired, green eyed girl quickly tried to collect what she had dropped, a basket full of books and fruits as well as a loaf of bread "im sorry sir i tripped please forgive me" she said trying to collect her things and get away before she was punished.

Jack did not expect the sudden bump and turned around. "Wow, no need to jump. It was an accident! Sheesh, we may roar like lions, but I swear I won't bite!" He joked, helping her collect her things. Jeez, was he really that scary looking? Ouch.
She was shaky, it wasnt him, it was just, working as a slave she was often abused. "Arent you....arent you one of the kings children sir?" She asked hesitantly, not knowing how he would react.

Jack looked up. He sighed and gave a rueful smile. "Sadly, that I am. One of my father's brood, though not by choice." He admitted with a chuckle. "And just call me Jack. Or Jackal, as my nickname is. A Jackal from a pride of lions, ha! Who would've thought!" He said, getting up after getting everything together. "I believe this is yours?" He asked, giving her the things she dropped with a mischievous smile
Taking the things thankfully she gave a small nod,"sir-ja-jack you should be grateful for what you have, not that im Saying-nevermind, thank you" she said then turned to walk away, making sure to step over the root she had tripped on.

Jack watched her go and shook his head. "Jeez. I'm not that ugly, am I?" He asked rhetorically, laughing at himself. Oh well, the randomness had given him some perk to his otherwise dull and cycling day.
Later, after she had prepared dinner, she knocked on his door, wondering if he was ever in there, she didnt normally speak to the family, but recently the woman who also helped her and made more closer relations with the family was sick so she had to.

"Coming!" A muffled reply came. there were several grunts and a loud metallic clash before, finally, a very disheveled Jack came to the door. "Aye?" He asked. Behind him, it was clear he had knocked over his armor onto the floor in a scramble when he was polishing them. That would account fro the very plain clothes he wore now.

Jack glanced back at it. "Uh, no, I'll do it. I think my armor got tangled in the sheets actually....." He mused. But then he remembered he was talking to someone. "Uh, I'll take care of it. Thanks for warning me about dinner." he said with a grin before going back into his room and shutting the door, where more angry and frustrated grunts could be heard
She listed for a bit before deciding to walk away and get the others, rushing down after so that she could reveal their platters to them as her and the other servants normally did.

Finally Jack got dressed, in fairly normal clothes of a simply black color with a bit of red thread, and walked over to dinner. He was starving, and curious about what there was to eat.
She had made stuffed crab, with almost all the other servants sick and only two others, cleaning the house, she rushed and set the food out, opening each platter when the family member cane down.

Jack came down and sat at the end. He hadn't eaten with his family in... what? two months now? Absence makes the heart grow fonder; Only, the effect didn't seem to hit him yet. He took one look at the dish and grinned, digging in with gusto. It was really good! "My compliments to the chef!" He said between mouthfuls

Soon enough, Jack was done and grabbed his plate, heading for the kitchen to clean it while humming a tune. He didn't bother asking permission to leave. His parents were already talking to some big name in trade, so he didn't want to stay
She had grabbed his siblings and parents plates and was washing them when he walked in, hearing him she jumped, "oh im sorry, please forgive me for forgetting your plate sir" she said

"What? Pfft.. It's nothing. I always wash my plates. ANything to get out of there faster." He said with a wink and a chuckle. "I hate trade talks. Ugh." He said with a shudder as he washed his plate
