[Not] Needing his approval

Rajah has to delicately explain to jack that his idol, the one person he adores most, doesn't care about him.

"Jackie..just how many times do you plan on gettin yourself hurt like this before realizin what's really goin here?"

The naive and flighty proclaimed boy genius, Jack Spicer, was once more trying desperately to plan some large, convoluted scheme in order to show Chase Young that he was, in fact, worthy of being his apprentice. It was the type of plan that made you want to shake your head in, not in disappointments, but..pity. Rajah could not for the life of her understand how Jack could continue to let himself be humiliated, ridiculed and just plain abused by a malicious, and quite frank, narcissistic character like Chase.
