He liked it being near the University, and as much as he'd hate on Jack for all his shit. He liked him as a roommate. He liked that he didn't know that many things, so he could show him something, and he'd be amazed. He didn't believe it at first, but it was true. He really didn't know about how to do all the essential things. How to make bread or yogurt, or anything really.
One day he planned to show him how to do sourdough or Kombucha something challenging and he would probably lose his shit.
He liked Jacks way with people. Something he didn't have so much, he liked everything physical he could deal with that. He could make any recipe, understand most concepts, he once because he wanted to made a bench and cemented it into park. He really could do almost anything. He'd walk there sometimes, and it was still there. People would sit on it and it was still level.
But he couldn't understand people like Jack. People would come in at random times, talk and leave always the room felt lighter after he was there. Same with him, if he was honest, almost anything he'd say to him, it would surprise him with what he would say, like someone 30 years older, but the delivery always made him feel listened to. He was wiping the counter now, he'd take a bath.
