Meanwhile Jack just. Retreats. Tail literally & metaphorically between his legs, too embarrassed to be in the same /building/ as Gabe unless it’s actually /required/ of him. His nose won’t let him ignore it when they are, & he spends the entire time smothering whines of both embarrassment & longing. If Gabe actually enters the same /room/ Jack bolts like his ass is on fire, it really makes things difficult considering they’re in the same unit. Missions are literal hell.
