jackal is definitely the type who would rather you compliment her mind / intelligence rather than her looks. now don’t get me wrong, she knows she’s gorgeous! and will definitely use that sometimes, but lordy does she have a huge ego that stems mainly from knowing how smart she is and would totally be all smug and satisfied when you praise that. this also goes in line with how her ego can just totally overtake her caution and let her plans go to foil so it’s also a good way to like completely manipulate her but that’s another thing-
she also does get the tiniest bits awkward when her looks are complimented, given how she wears the mask almost 24/7 and becomes even more so when her eyes are praised.
