You could probably tell from my fic how I think Jack sleeps. Normal. At least, when she knows Shepard is around. Or whenever she knows she's safe.
I got the feeling that it was a habit developed from being who she was before Shepard found her at Purgatory (Prison), and the experiences she went through. For the sake of simplicity, I'm going to assume we're talking romanced Jack, and say that I'm not implying that years of being on her guard is just gonna get thrown out of the window just because one person feels for her.
Old habits die hard. She may be comfortable sleeping with him, but her body isn't. She has to get used to it before she starts being a heavy sleeper. Otherwise, she would usually wake up at the faintest, sudden sounds. Like a pen dropping.
And while I'm talking, I found myself thinking about this while I was passed out (Don't judge me).
How do you guys think Jack handles sex? With Shepard, I mean. I mean, I'm sure we'd all love some tenderness, from time to time, but still, it's Jack. I don't think it's going to be as clear cut as getting used to it.
The way I see it, there are two things supporting my idea, the first and foremost being the Renegade sex option in ME2. 'Round this time, Jack's taking charge, and putting Shepard through as much pain as pleasure. Second one is Grissom Academy.
The girl (Ahem, excuse my wording) blows your sh*t out before kissing you.
The only other three things that COULD disprove the idea doesn't really do it when you realize it wasn't her initiative:
Paragon "Sex Scene": Shepard led her to his bed. Implied that there was no actual sex involved, just caressing.
Paragon Interrupt: Shepard takes point again, and this goes no further than kissing.
L.I. Lock-In at Purgatory: Shepard -again- takes point, taking Jack into his hands and kissing her after telling her she was not getting rid of him that easily.
Hell, I even explored this bit in the Son Of Mindoir fic, once. I believe the chapter is "Hate Me."

And I'm OK with that

So either an inconsistency, or Jack told them that she took out the collector base single-handedly =)

The other kids are like "I can't believe it!" which sounds more like they heard the story, but found it hard to believe like "no way!"

Remember how she didn't really talk about Murtock? He was sort of used as a last resort to keep Shepard away, no?
Not saying that applies here, but I don't think she really talks about any of the people she feels for.
Just because she left Shepard out of the story doesn't automatically mean she told them she did the deed herself -- even though I know why she WOULD say it. She probably could've mentioned Miri, Jacob, Thane, Legion, Kasumi, Mordin, Tali, Garrus, Joker, Edi, Zaeed, or Grunt.
Most likely Grunt.
They don't have dialogue regarding other squad members as far as I can tell; just Shepard. So you never really know.

I agree... the Paragon scene in ME2 shows us there will be tender moments, but I think the Renegade hookup is much more her normal style.
Agreed. I think there will (depending on the situation) be tender moments. But most of the time it's gonna be aggressive.
Jacks song to other shep LIs would be "Halestorm - Love Bites (so do I)"

Well, I don't think it's very clear how well-known Shepard's destruction of the Collectors is to the galaxy at large. The Alliance WOULD know about it, of course, since Shepard turned himself into them and presumably explained his reasons for joining Cerberus (and Sanders, especially, would be likely to know and believe it, considering her involvement with Anderson). But perhaps it's less likely that a group of teenagers would be aware of all the details, if any.KingNothing125 wrote...
I think they know (or should know) she helped Shep because she says, "the Alliance knew I helped you with the Collectors, so they offered me this." Granted, she's talking about Sanders, not the kids, but I dunno, I think they would put 2+2 together.
I find it more curious that, you know, after seeing their teacher get into a raging makeout session with Commander Shepard, the students would refer to their relationship as just "working together".

Just wanted to remind you that you can send me via PM few lines what do you think about Jack DLC and it will be sent to BW HQ.
What do you mean by lines? could you provide me with an example?

Here you have an example: "Every Boy Scout needs his Jack. That's why I'm asking for more of Ms. Nought. Jack as a squadmate!" by Premier Bromanov.
Okay I see. Thanks, if I think of anything clever I'll send it your way

Aver, how many submissions do you have so far? Feels like the Jack community around here is kind of small
5 but it's not a problem. I have a plan to get more later. I will post list of interesting phrases made by myself and people will be able to pick one. I think that most of people just don't have a good idea for it.

I wasn't really active, Liara thread is insane. I'm doing my insanity playthrough and of course a lot of MP.
Forgive me, Jack.

Starting another playthrough of ME3 reminds me of one of the lines from ME2:
