_{[Jack's toothy grin fades in an instant and with a pout, flops down in one of the chairs and allows a cloth to be draped across him and fastened around his neck.]}

Corpse Chic, huh? I can't wait...

Yeah, spooky sexy! It's all about playing to strengths! I mean, that's a pretty broad rule for everything. Know your strengths and make'em work for ya! Whether you're getting a haircut or taking over a giant company, it's just good advice.

[Handsome Jack plops himself down in the next chair, stretching out and grinning like the lord of the manor. He ignores the salon attendants as they get everything set up, and chatter over Spooky Jack's head in preparation. The smell of hair chemicals increases in potency.]

This is why I never bothered with a personal stylist, I don't need one! I know my strengths! All of'em.

[quickattackjack]

All of them?

_{[As the hairdressers go to work on him, Jack tries to pull a little more info out of his 'boss'.]}

[Lucky for Jack Skellington, Handsome Jack loves to talk about himself. He's more than happy to chatter away while salon attendants hover about and do their thing.]

Wouldn't be as successful as I am if I didn't! See, you can't spread yourself too thin. You gotta know what you're good at and go with that! Back home, I got started in computers. Programming and design, I was kinda a prodigy. Did I want to be a badass space adventurer hero from the start? Sure I did! But my strengths were coding and circuits, so I rode that to a pretty sweet job where I was set to shoot up the corporate ladder. And I'm also good at learning, so I learned how to be the badass superstar you see before ya now!

[Really, it was more of a complete reinvention of his self, but whatever. He likes to think of it as finally coming into his own.]

Here...here things are different, I'm at a different place in my life, so I'm relying on different strengths. You gotta adapt. Another of my strengths! I'm an adaptable guy.

_{[Jack nods and follows along--or nods as much as his hairdressers will allow him. So Jack here was a computer whiz? The skeleton didn't know much about computers himself. He knew how to send people those cute animated greeting cards online and a few other things but. Hmm.]}

That's so inspiring!
