"I suppose," Sapphy shrugged. "Fitting in isn't my priority, though. But thank you for being concerned," she smiled.

Considering that Stagey was all but afraid of her own shadow, anyone was brave, including Jack, but she let it go, smiling stupidly. "Well, dry off." She threw another warm blanket in Jack's direction. "It's nice to have visitors." She offered Sapphy a genuine smile. "Stay as long as you like."

"Thanks," Jack grinned and started drying off his hair first. He also started to notice the chill since he was completely drenched.
"I can't help it, it's kinda my job. Anybody bothers you, just lemme know." He shrugged.
After he finished drying his hair he wrapped himself up in the blanket. "Stagey you think you could fix my button?" He grinned sheepishly. He could cook for himself, clean, but ask him to sew a button and he was useless.

Sapphy grinned despite herself, glancing back and forth between Stagey and Jack.
"Your job? So, what? You're president of the newsies or something?"

"I ain't president." Jack laughed, "but you could say I'm the leader of sorts." he shrugged.

"Only a button? All right. Give it here," she commanded gently, arm outstretched for the mending. "He's a leader in his own mind," she told Sapphy teasingly. "He keeps threatening to leave us to go out west, though."

Sapphy's eyes widened as they darted over to Jack.
"West?" she repeated, nearly in a whisper.

"I ain't kidding, I'm saving up ya know." He unbuttoned the rest of his shirt and handed it to her. "Thanks."

"Where out west?" Sapphy asked, admittedly enrapt with interest.

"Santa Fe," He smiled. "It's nice and warm there ya know? All open space, it's perfect." His whole face lit up when he was talking about Santa Fe. It was his dream, the only thing he's ever wanted, ever really wanted that he could actually have.

"I know," Sapphy sighed in agreement. "I have my eyes set in California."

"Yea?" Jack asked with a smile. "I hear there's gold out there, but it don't interest me. I want fucking space ya know? I'm tired of living on top of somebody else. I'm lucky I got my own bed!"

"Change of pace for me," Sapphy nodded. "Don't really care about the gold so much as I care about the desert."

"Exactly...wouldn't it be nice to be dry?" He said, rather wistful sounding. "I hate the rain.
