"Is there something worse than immortality?" Owen asked Jack and went back to his lab leaving the question floating in the Hub air.
Jack sat at his desk, put his feet on it and started to think. In his more than 150 years of living in this planet, he has seen dear people suffer, be hurt and die in all the possible ways someone can imagine; but even though all these bad things, he goes out every day to hunt weevils and try to make this planet safer for humankind.
He cannot die, well that is false, he can die, in fact, he has died so many times that he cannot remember how many, but he always comes back from death, with those horrible headaches, with a sort of pain in his whole body but happy to be still useful.
But this is not what Owen has asked him and Jack knows that his mind and his heart has the right answer; but he feels fear to speak it up; because there is only one thing worse than immortality: living without his Ianto.
