How would a romanced Jack respond to Shepard telling her that he
pondered the worth of going to Purgatory to pick her up? He wouldn't
mean it in a mean way. Obviously, he didn't know who she was until he
released her. How would she respond to Shepard saying that he was
glad that he did?
Normandy mess hall, 03:00 standard hours
Shep: [chugging a bottle of batarian ale] - Ahhhh. That hit the spot. [sinks into the chair]
Jack: [swipes the bottle and swigs] How's your head?
Shep: What, after you suplexed my ass off the bed and into the wall after you hugged me?
Jack: [grins]
Shep: Never better. How about your arms?
Jack: Tingly from that full nelson earlier.
Shep: [smirks] Still think I'm a p*ssy now?
Jack: Shoulda gone for the rocking horse and popped my back in place for me.
Shep: [shaking his head] Never thought I'd meet someone so into wrestling that she could literally throw me off my feet.
Jack: I'm scrappy. What can I say? [hands bottle back to Shep, stares thoughtfully]
Jack: What did you think of me when we first met?
Shep: Hm? [takes another swig from the bottle]....
Jack: What did you think - of me - when we first met?
Shep: Hn. [puts the bottle down] Honestly. I didn't know what to expect at first. [smiles] Read the file Illusive Man sent over. I thought you were a guy.
Jack: [punches Shep in the arm]
Shep: Purgatory was damn scared of you - scared enough to put you on ice. A criminal that makes the other scumbags on a slave ship shrivel up like that? That's gotta say something.
Shep: Half expected a masked murderer with a huge machete or a disfigured geezer with a gloved claw who can kill you in your dreams. That's just me watching too many vids.
Shep: Grunt said you were small when we cracked open the cells.
Jack: .. Imma slap his ass with a singularity after this.
Shep: He changed his mind pretty quickly when you broke out. Don't be too hard on him. He's just a kid after all.
Jack: [flatly] A big kid with guns, toys and stroke mags he got off the extranet.
Shep: [chuckling] But seriously? What did I think about you? You had me the second you blew up those YMIR mechs and started tearing the ship apart. I'd pay to see you do that to a Reaper. It was that goddamned magnificent.
Shep: [leaning over] I was in awe of you.... Even when you called me a p*ssy.
Jack: [sliding back away from Shepard] Heh. Bastard.
Shep: [easing back into the chair] I don't regret helping you get out of Purgatory. Sure, you did time and all that. But some of the other crew I had to pick up weren't any better in that regard.
Shep: In the end? I got someone who made me remember I'm more than humanity's poster boy on a crusade to exterminate a race of oversized machines.
Shep: Jack. [eyeing her seriously] You make me want to be a better man.
Jack: [squints]........ You stole that line didn't you?
-- [pause] ---
Jack: ..... C'mere...

Clearly, I didn't have enough to drink to actually make this work.....

They also have great lines, supported by each other and Renegade Shepard together.NICKjnp wrote...
That... and Grunt & Jack look awesome together.
However I tend to use Jack the most with my more-or-less Paragon Sheps for a reason.

It's funny how the art here is sometimes very reflective and internal; there's a lot of great fanart out there in the various threads, and a lot of it is cute, or humourous, or standard pinup-art-ish kinda stuff (and there is NOTHING at all wrong with those things, by the by)... but here, while we do the same, we also think about what's going on inside so damn much.
Jack - muse of choice for the thoughtful?

I wouldn't say that, more like the other threads have cannibalized or scared off the majority of their intelligent, insightful posters with picture spam and a "Positivity, OR ELSE" attitude.
As an aside, let's see how fast Pacifien gets here to let me know that talking about other fanbases is a no-no

It's great to see it all finished at last. It really does not disappoint

I think so. I hope so. I need more ideas. I'm out of ideas
More DLC, please.

Clothes, armor and hair are all superficial changes to me. Her attitude and approach to situations is what makes her Jack to me. If she wasn't yelling "I'll throw you like a toy!" during battle, then I'd wonder where Jack went.Major Truth wrote...
Quick Question for Jack fans: How would you guys react to Bioware presenting a completely changed Jack in ME3 - ie convential clothes/armour, long hair etc ?
Would you be for it or against it?

Completely changed? No. They'd need a helluva good reason for why she would change like that. If it's a Sandy-turning-complete-greaser-just-to-please-Danny kind-of-change, I'd wonder why they would do that. Their justification would have to be in-line for all of the possible ways Shepard can affect Jack in ME2.
Conventional clothes? Yes, please. Long hair? We talk about this a lot, and I'd rather she keep her hair as short as it is in ME2. Her appearance and attitude keep the idiots and users away. *adjusts monocle*

Her no longer being the "rebel without a cause" but a "rebel with a cause"
Still the same old Jack, but more integrated into society, and more likely not to let her temper rule her actions

I suppose what I'm asking is, if they went down to the whole "Shpeard has changed her for the better amgle" would that be acceptable

She can't change just because of the romance. Not everyone romanced her.
Also, Shepard can push her in a certain direction, especially during her loyalty mission, where he can encourage her to kill Aresh, a "Renegade" action, apparently.

Totally agrees with that. I can safely assume that if - IF - Jack will be back in ME3, she and all the other squadmates will have some kind of "upgraded" look, maybe just some details, yet still different. Take Ashley as example: if you compare her standard ME1 armor with the one she wears in ME2, you'll notice some small differences. I have no problem with that ;-)
On the other hand, please don't change her attitude!

Just to totally derail the line of thought you guys are working on, anyone have an idea if there is a 'database' if you will, of ME2 Fanfiction with Jack as a central character? If I have to see Tali one more time in the lead role...
Nope. Quickfic, or proper fanfic? For proper (not quickfic) fanfiction, there's Urdaniel's material. That's all I know about.

Okay. Here's the picture. The artist is Steve Goad. This is a picture that tries to show Sole Survivor Shepard's trauma, and how it would affect Shepard's relationship with Jack. Jack doesn't know how to deal with Shepard's nightmares, since she deals with her own problems in an internalized way, but she's trying to help, and I'm trying to show that, too.
I still prefer to pair Jack up with a colonist/ruthless Shepard though.

If I'm not mistaken, Mondo keeps track of all her mini-fics on her blog, here on the Social Network.
