I've suggested it should be compulsory reading for all fanfic writers - this is how it's done!
Yes. The tone is just right. I was thinking the same thing - "too bad more fanfic writers don't get Jack's character quite this acutely." It isn't even always what he says, sometimes it's what he doesn't say - the way he lies obfuscates the truth for the record. But still lets his joie de vivre (and sometimes his despair) creep in.
