He's doing just what Evie does, he realises as he hears the young man shift behind him, trying to see in the gloom what the hold up is. It's one of Jacob's many complaints about his sister- she makes decisions without consulting him, or explaining what she's done.
"That way slopes down steeply in about 20 feet- just down to the next level. This way... doesn't. I think it's a better option."
He can play nicely. He can talk to people, explain himself. Not just charge off without thinking. Of course, his twin isn't here to see that, and probably would still find fault with him anyway, but he's trying.
This kid is full of questions, isn't he? But they're not stupid, thankfully. And Jacob does like to talk, so he can hardly complain. "All three, I suppose. We don't really understand it all. We shouldn't be trying- it should be kept away from people, or destroyed entirely. Those things have caused nothing but pain and suffering for thousands of years."
He doesn't reply to the statement about rules. He doesn't like any rules, they all feel like they were decided to personally curtail his freedom. But one thing does tickle him, and he can't resist mentioning it.
"You seem to be an expert in reckless, considering you came down here with someone you don't even know, and neither of us know exactly where we're going."
