Trying to distract Jack from the thought of getting back onto the skyship, as the passengers gather and mill about waiting to board, the Doubletake slips her arms around the captain's shoulders as if she was nothing more than a lovestruck girl with nothing else to do than be clingy.

The funny part was that if they were honest with one another, things would be significantly better for both of them.
