I wonder how Jack would respond to a Sole Survivor Shepard telling her that he, too, has some unfinished business to settle with Cerberus.
Would she respond in a hostile manner, claiming that what he went through was nothing compared to what they did to her at Teltin? How would she respond to Shepard telling her that his squad was slaughtered by a Thresher Maw in what amounted to Cerberus using soldiers as guinea pigs?
Would she respond positively, finding a friend in someone who hates Cerberus just as much as she does? If so, what would she think of Shepard trying to explain why he works for Cerberus now? Would she be receptive to his explanation?
Would she be indifferent?
Well, in my more serious blogfics (if you wanna call them that) my Shepard that's with Jack is a sole survivor. While I've not written it, I'd imagine that he'd tell her the story, she'd say something like "That's pretty f*cked up... what say we go find a Cerberus station and blow it up? Payback time." As for working for Cerberus, I'd imagine our sole survivor would be quite honest and say "I don't work for them. For now, it's the colonies we have to protect... but once they're safe, I'm going to get some answers." She might not want to buy into that explaination completely at first (because altruism is a little alien to Jack when we first meet her) I find it very hard to imagine Jack not wanting in on a chance to stick it to Cerberus once Shep has proved his genuine intentions.
For my Shep and Jack, I think this shared exposure to Cerberus's worst excesses probably played a part in them becoming close enough for a romance to ignite... and in turn give them a chance to try and soothe some of the psychological damage they carry with them because of their pasts.
