[Q's hands ball up in front of him in the best expression of earnestness he can manage. What he lacks in facial depth, he tries so hard to make up for in the rest of his body language.]
They will, you know. They'll see you, I know it! I don't know how anyone couldn't, because you're the best person I've ever met before, and your whole team is going to be so happy!
[In a way, it's almost easier for Jack to read the helmet than to try and read any sort of emotion.It's made him really think of how to listen and read body language and tone. It's a good exercise in patience and skill and he chuckles to himself upon hearing Q's emphatic statement.]
Wellll right now my team's pretty small. Just two of them. I hope I can make them happy.
[Because...well, Jack knows what it means if either of them lose all of their followers and while he wouldn't mind so much if it meant saving one of the kids, he'd rather not risk it.] They're going to love you. Especially when they get to talk to you. And who knows? We might get to host soon instead of letting Catherine run the show.
[Q thinks that if he gets more followers, maybe he could ask some of them to join Jack's team. He'd want it--he wants all of his friends to stay in the contest as long as possible. Because that way no matter who ended up winning, they wouldn't have to feel regretful.]
They all seem to really like her...she acts pretty different when she's wearing her mask.
[Joke's on you, Q, that's exactly Jack's plan. Set things up to make sure both Q and Ion stay in the game, and so long as he has one believer...just one...he isn't out yet.]
You noticed too? [He's not really happy with that fact, and it's even worse that Q's observed it, too.] What kind of game do you think she's playing?
