Friend?⁂
Jack is one of Speckle's closest friends.
They both adore candy, and Jack recently introduced Speckle to his new favorite - candy blood bags.
Speckle also tends to play with the keys on Jack's key-ring, liking the way they jingle and clank together.
Speckle hopes to soon start working at some of the Halloween pop-up shops with Jack as a comforting
presence if there's something scary on the shelves.

Speckle's Imagination⁂
Speckle often thinks about what it would be like to work in a Halloween pop-up shop with Jack. See, Jack's
never had problems with being afraid of the decorations or the pre-recorded sounds. Speckle, on the other
hand, has always been terrified. He'd be thankful if he was able to just work in the candy section of the
shop, but he knows that's incredibly unlikely. There's been times in the past that Jack has had to talk
Speckle out of fear, explaining the mechanics of the Halloween decorations that scared the poor bat.
Jack's never seemed annoyed, just.. Tired. Jack always looks tired. Speckle feels as though having
Jack around would give him an extra sense of confidence, allowing him to work well in all sections
of the shop. Speckle also feels that working together would bring them closer. He's always wanted
to spend more time with Jack, but has a constant fear of being a nuisance. Jack's always content
doing what he enjoys without any company, from what Speckle's observed. Working together would
hopefully strengthen their bond and help Speckle gain the confidence he needs to ask Jack about
spending more time together. They could try lots of new candy together, or do anything, really.
Speckle would be willing to do whatever Jack wants to do, even if it sounds scary. Friendship
means everything to him, and he'll face all of his fears in order to keep it.
