JACK
Waiting patiently for Flora to walk herself through the steps of do I kill him, oh wait no I'm thinking about it, Jack is as calm as he's ever been given the fact that his greatest secret has been revealed - willingly, no less, because he's not far gone enough not to know that he might have clawed this back to coincidence if he'd wanted to - to the young Queen of Torchline. And of course she's got to have her little putting-the-clues-together moment, and it's with tired blue eyes (one of them, anyway) that he tracks her sneering movements around towards him.
And it's true - whilst Flora has no idea the fate that has befallen all but one of the people to know about him (hey how's it going Jata) - even Jack knows he's almost frighteningly detached from the current situation. Indeed, at her final sharp insult, he does little more than gesture with his good hand as if he's going to give her a jaunty bow from his place sitting on the beach.
"A party trick with a broken wrist," he slurs, gesturing to his bad side. "So, y'know, if you're not busy..." Could you make with the being a medic? "Unless you really do wanna try that knife on me. Which'd be a shame."
