flora
Biting at her lower lip to stop her grin from running away with her at the sight of the spyglass, Flora's thoughts would communicate what the small sounds of excitement she was trying so desperately to cage, could not: fireworks of excitement lit up her mind in dazzling arrays of colour, streaming across her mind's eye just as neatly as the constellations above them were.
Meeting Jack's gaze and watching the reluctant raising of his arm, Flora couldn't help but think that someone like Koa would have given her his jacket or stepped entirely outside of his own skin to keep her warm if that was all he had. But then, genuine affection had never been what was on the table with Jack, and at least with him, she knew (more or less) what it was she was bargaining for. That was the point of their little arrangement, wasn't it?
"I'll get the blanket later." She murmurs before tucking herself neatly against his side as if the illusion of her effortlessly fitting there might somehow trick the captain into having feelings for her. "I wouldn't want to miss anything." Peering up into the sky, Flora nearly reaches out a hand as if she might brush her fingertips against the stars that winked brightly as the Ark sailed past.
"I know you didn't pluck this out of my mind." Glancing up at Jack, Flora raises an eyebrow as she leans against him. "Let me guess, this is your standard get an accepted to channel for you power move, isn't it?"
