[If things were different. Jack would be lying if he said he didn't sometimes imagine some kind of life like this, not too many years from now. Those thoughts, however, exist in a time before Overwatch crumbled the way it did--and even if it hadn't, he's more than self-aware enough to know that he wouldn't be able to stand a quiet, idyllic life.
There's still work to do, and the fact that he's being kept from it chafes. He doesn't know what he's going to do if Reaper's number comes up before his.
He's going to think what he likes either way, but Jack can't help but take a few steps to keep him in arms reach as he inspects the hive (because hiding in the barn wasn't good enough, apparently). Jack imagines that there are other, better things Reaper can do to actually hurt him than something as petty as kill some bees, but he can't help but hover anyway, prepared to strike out if he so much as tries to touch the wood structures.]
What do you want, Reyes?
[Get to the point. If they're going to fight, they might as well get started.]
