[ No, he never blushes, but it's the principle of the thing. ]
I was the poster boy for the Time Agency in my area when I was young, so these pearly whites were plastered everywhere, once upon a time. But I'm glad I still got it.
[ The Face of Boe they called him, and Jack as of right now doesn't know what that may or may not mean for thousands of years in his future. He does love flattery though; his ego doesn't need stroking, but who doesn't love some genuine stroking now and again?]
I would love your playlist. Aren't you just full of so many great details?
[ He knows River told him the man has been struggling since his experience, so Jack's happy to maybe stroke his ego a little too.
It's true that time travelers in his world do have a habit of running into each other! Even if it's a very large galaxy, when you have all the options of time and space, things eventually convene. Or there could be some destiny sprinkled in, he doesn't think it's as simple as coincidence, especially not when it comes to him and River. It would be impossible to think that two people so closely entwined with the Doctor would end up not only coming across each other, but eventually getting married themselves. ]
Yep, that's me.
[ He laughs. ]
We rode them. It was very fun. River and I are a classic time travel tale. We've met many times over the years, often at the wrong points in time so we didn't always know the other.
[ Jack knows the full timeline now, no question, but it did take a little following before they were able to get to the same spot. His smile is very fond and gentle.]
We're two of a kind, honestly. Sometimes people say meeting someone too much like you is a bad thing, but it works for us.
