Hey, at least he cooked it first.

Perhaps I should have more correctly said abdomen -- he bypasses the stomach, which he's getting really good at locating by now, and shoves up and through the broad gap at the bottom of the ribcage. He has to grit his teeth a lot, because he's basically shoving all the burn sores on his arm through fresh carcass, but like I said. Pain. Working through it. He's familiar.

Getting through a heart requires a fair amount of chewing. It's not impenetrable, but it's tough like a mussel, and there's probably a pun I could make on that fact but it's late so I won't. And there's not exactly a chance to wash it, so the overriding flavour is blood -- metallic, harshly rich.

Jack breathes a bit easier as his wounds begin to heal.

A few moments later, about halfway through the organ, he can turn himself round without too much hurt and sit himself down on the splicer's corpse. He nods up at Sinclair as he chews, an 'all okay' kind of gesture. There's blood running in generous rivers down his chin and throat and into the neck of his sweater.

I mean he knows you don't do shit like this on the surface, but he still doesn't see a particular problem with it, and presumably Sinclair feels the same way, right?
