Jack accepted the glass of water with a polite smile before taking a sip. Samuel's look did not go unnoticed and Jack made a decision to also sit down beside the other man.

He considered Samuel's question. It was a simple question, of course. A reasonable question, logical... Nonetheless, it was a question Jack didn't have a concise answer for. Truthfully, he hadn't gone into great detail over this particular "plan" of his. And well... that's how he was trying to do things, make a plan but not actually plan too many details.

"Ahhh," He began and cast his eyes downward, focusing on the glass he was holding. "I'm by no means..." Jack stopped and frowned. No, that wouldn't do.

However, blunt honesty. Now, that sounded good.

He swallowed and looked Samuel directly in the eyes. "What would you say if I told you that, I'm having what some may call "a mid-life crisis?" I've been dissatisfied most of my life. I recently quit my job. I broke up with my fiancée. But, I used to sketch when I was a child, so I've decided I would like to learn anything artsy."

Jack grinned; somehow his little, or not so little, confession made him amused, happy even.

Or I'm crazy.
