Summary: Jack isn't sure what counts as home anymore. A double drabble.


Jack studied his teammates in the almost pitch black of the closed millinery factory. There was at least one, if not more, weevils roaming around inside, and he didn't think they were here to find out whether they were better suited to a wide brim or a cloche.
'We should split up,' Jack told them. 'I'll go this way, you two go that way. If you see anything, just whistle.'

'Whistle?' Llinos said. 'I don't know how to whistle. Can't we do something else?'

Jack groaned quietly. Llinos, with her thick, curling red hair framing her face was definitely a girl who was more accustomed to being whistled at. Jack turned to the third of their trio. 'Greg, I assume you can?' Surely they'd taught him that much in the army's officer training. Not that Jack found him lacking in his other many fine qualities.

'What tune would you like? God save the Queen or Beethoven's Fifth? Or perhaps you have some strange alien mating call you'd prefer me to use.'

'Why don't you use that sound I make when you take off your pants?'

Jack could sense Greg rolling his eyes. 'Yes, I'm sure that would bring you running.'
