She might have rolled her eyes at him then—obviously he knew—but the playful sheen to the Doubletake's thoughts had all but been scrubbed away, revealing only a raw surface below. Either Jack would be so good at what he did as to make it easy for the Doubletake to lie to herself, or he wouldn't. It was as simple as that.
As Jack looks over her shoulder and nods, Flora of course is inclined to do as instructed thinking perhaps another pod of starwhales had just breached into the open skies. Drawn back towards him, Flora's oh? of surprise is indeed devoured by the captain's waiting lips, and though the movement felt absolutely choreographed no part of Flora was unhappy with the role she'd been thrust into.
Standing up on her toes, her fingernails radiating out against the back of Jack's head, Flora's tongue scrawls the words her mind is already well on its way to imagining. Even if the crew aboard the Ark had been handpicked, even if Jack had given them a speech ahead of time that began with you just go along with the things you see and know it's all for the good of the Ark, it was still effort wasn't it?
Or was she only kidding herself because this was less of a risk than trying for the real thing?
Feeling a ripple of heat rise up from her core and begin to singe her cheeks, Flora indeed was left a touch breathless as she parted from Jack.
