[Dave has never seen Jack like this, it worries him. But he can't just concentrate on comforting his boyfriend when there's so much going on. There's another Guardian, one he hadn't been told about. And he is Jack's ex?
He hadn't been told about that either - in fact, Jack told him a very different story.
But if he is a Guardian, why should they run? Meeting with exes can be awkward, but for Jack to feel like this, so... scared. He thought he was dead... Dave can already feel his stomach turning, his mind providing what that means for his own position.
Nobody should be angry to see someone beloved come back to life, he thinks. But he's definitely starting to feel upset - there's no time to comment on it though.
The landing of the dragon makes him jump, making it easy for Jack to act as a shield between the new arrivals and a startled Dave. Such a beautiful creature, and in any other situation his inner fanboy would pay more attention to it, but right now he only has eyes for the so called 'prince'. He has to admit, he was expecting someone more mixed, like the Tooth Fairy, while the guy he's seeing is pretty normal, except for the little fangs and the black spots on his face.
A little voice in his head points out he's concentrating on that to avoid noticing certain similarities. He ignores it, because he's already upset enough. His self-esteem can't take that hit now.
And Jack. Just, wow. Even Dave is starting to be a little scared of this reaction. Such violence because of love? Then he remembers what happened between Balthazar and Horvarth, and he reaches the conclusion that eternal beings can't keep things simple. They've forgotten how.]
...Jack. [His voice is cracking and his hand trembles as it lands on the spirit's shoulder. He understands why they should leave now, and part of him does want to flee, but they can't do that without being chased by the prince and his dragon.] Jack, please. You-- you're scaring me a little bit. I don't know what happened between you two, but I don't think he wants to hurt us.
[Because messy thoughts about this guy aside, Dave can see that sorrow, has felt it (probably not in such a big way, but still) and thinks there may be a chance of parting ways without challenging each other to a magic duel.]
