With the healing done, the fire stoked for now and the gorgon seemingly settled for the time being, Jack allowed himself to sit down as he leafed through his lumps of sugar. The corner of his lips twitched when Gabriel investigated and then took one. That was a quick way to get energy - and foul tasting medicine - into young and old alike.
He shifted so he could lean a little on the gorgon, taking out two more lumps of sugar before putting the rest away. He offered one to Gabriel and kept one for himself. "Sugar. This stuff will lump up when exposed to humidity, so it's easier to carry around."
It was... companionable like this, reminding him of that brief conversation they had had leaning against the cart weeks ago. "It's a quick boost of energy, though you should probably try to sleep. I don't have a spell to neutralize the poison in you." Though he was probably going to be looking into it now.
