<i.Nine and Jack seemed almost like colleagues, working on the TARDIS together</i>
I loved the way Jack seemed to just effortlessly fall into the role of First Mate of the TARDIS, doing what needed to be done, and loving the vessel as much as the Doctor.
<i>Jack knew what Nine was planning for the Daleks and that it pretty much meant his death and he didn't care.</i>
It was an honourable death, done for the sake of - among other things - someone he loved. It lived up to all that Jack admired. And that the Doctor know he would do it, asked him to do it, and expected him to do it was a good thing - it showed that he had total faith in Jack's character and love. I had no problem with any of that. I loved it.
But with Ten... take away the affection, and it looks like abuse.
<i>doesn't even apologize when given the opportunity ("Did I? Busy life, moved on")</i>
And it isn't as if he doesn't have plenty of opportunity later. The callousness is staggering.
<i>The man died for you, over and over, have some respect!</i>
And appreciation. And understanding. Ten treats Jack as if he's a disposable tool.
