The anger, the frustration, everything Jack has kept locked away for so long, it’s there, simmering beneath his calm exterior, waiting to break free. And yet, when the moment finally arrives, when Jack has the chance to strike, to truly hurt Joker, something holds him back. It’s in this hesitation, this pause, that we see the complexity of Jack. Maybe I’m reading too much into it, maybe I’m a little delusional, but when Joker's shoulder is cut, there’s something so wild and untamed in Jack's eyes. For a split second, it felt like more than just rage, it felt like possession. In that moment, my mind couldn’t help but think, "This is more than anger. He’s protecting his man." LMAO
But that’s the beauty of Jack’s character, he isn’t consumed by the darkness around him, not completely. Even after five long years, years that could’ve turned him into something unrecognizable, a cold-hearted monster fueled by revenge, Jack is still Jack. There’s a kindness in him, a light that hasn’t been snuffed out by the harsh realities of the world. Yes, he’s changed. Yes, he’s hardened. But at his core, he remains true to who he was—a boy who believed in something better, in helping others, even if that part of him is now hidden beneath layers of cynicism and pain. If you look closely enough, you can still see the boy he once was, the one who was kind, gullible even, full of hope and trust. And that is what makes Jack so compelling. He’s a man now, carrying the weight of everything that has happened to him, yet still somehow clinging to that shred of humanity. It would’ve been so easy for him to lose himself, to let the bitterness consume him, but he hasn’t. He holds on to that piece of his heart that still believes in goodness, even if he has to guard it fiercely, even if it’s hidden deep within the walls he’s built.
Now let's talk about their dynamic which is an inferno. Every time they face off, it’s like the air between them thickens, charged with something primal, something electric. It’s not just physical attraction, though that’s undeniably there, it's something far more dangerous, more raw. Jack is a volcano on the verge of eruption, his anger bubbling up after years of being buried. And Joker? Joker is drowning in a sea of guilt, weighed down by the consequences of his actions.When they fight Jack’s fury is SO VISIBLE, while Joker is a tangled mess of remorse and defiance. They are like two sides of the same coin—Jack with all his pent-up rage, and Joker with his guilt, unable to find a way out of the labyrinth they’ve both been trapped in for years. The unspoken words between them, the unfinished business, it all builds, higher and higher, until it feels like something’s going to break. It’s chaos, and it’s beautiful. They are two broken people, spiraling toward one another in a whirlwind of emotion that neither can control. Jack with his burning desire for justice, for something to make sense again. Joker with his haunted past, his regret, and the knowledge that he may never be able to fix what’s been broken.
