Jack spawns outside of his House, with his wings fluffed up. Surprisingly, Frank/Nous is right next to him.

Ahh, it really depends.
I could have used your help earlier too, so let's agree on something.
I will not commit any major crimes. I killed one innocent to many already.

Other than that, I'd be glad to help.
Though I'd like to know...
Do you know who tore out all these pages out of the occult section of the library? I'd like to learn more about magic, just so I'm prepared.

You too know something is wrong with everyone, right?
You, me, everyone.

It's not a yes yet, do keep that in mind please.

He actually seemed to smile for once; he was obviously southern, possibly but not quite Texan in pitch, but extremely monotone. Charles always sat behind the desk, waiting time after time for some unlucky person to walk in with another rifle he'd never see again, mostly because the customer would get power crazy, run out into the city, get shot, and he'd lose another gun to the Red Light District.
