Jack certainly couldn't ignore John's snipe, and indeed his eyebrows did lift a little, surprised that he would use that card so soon. In fact, his little jibe earns him a slow, sarcastic clap. "Nice. Well-done. It's really warming my heart to you, John. So much sympathy coming from me." While the words did sting, and he never really needed a reminder of his eventual fate, he knew full well that the only reason he was being nasty was because his own ego was bruised. "Keep talking like that, and we'll see how soon I let you out." He was still playing warden, after all.
"Why do you think I settled down?" He said regarding John's other question. "You don't think that I know how well I could do if I started jobs like yours again? I'd be a legend. Unkillable. And yet, here I am." He shrugged. "I guess I just grew up. Grew out of it. Maybe someday, you will too."
