Hunger. He is always hungry. Hunger for food, shelter, strength, more… always more. He even learned to crave pain. That means he's still breathing, still alive.

Haley was threatening the moon on a public livestream that had somehow gathered two billion viewers in six minutes. And Fenrir's blood was inside his skin. Not poison. Recognition. Jack hated it.
