[There's nothing there at first, just blood on his shirt and unnatural stillness. Then, abrupt as hell, his heart starts racing, he gasps, and grabs blindly at the Master.]
[ At first glance he thinks it's nothing more than a passed out drunk - but there's something a little too limp about the body and a feeling in his gut that makes him take a closer look. He crouches down to the body and presses his fingers to the man's throat, searching for a pulse. He doesn't say anything, just sighs and hangs his head a little when there's nothing. ]
[He stays well and truly out for another few seconds, then he gasps, coughs, and scrambles upright. When he realizes someone else is there, he startles so hard he almost whacks his head against the wall.]
[ The scream that emits from Templeton Peck's mouth that moment is so very not worthy of a war veteran, but he would deny it ever happened to his last breath. He somehow stumbles backward, to his feet, heart and stomach in his throat at the same time. ]

[He just stays still, while Jack gets his bearings. Trying to stay very steady without going completely impassive.]
