Truly it was unfair how even the most insignificant bit of attention or affection from the captain delighted the Doubletake, and here she was, biting at the inside of her lip once more in an effort to keep the laughter that sparked on her tongue contained. As she does, whatever mental walls she'd learned to try and construct fell away entirely, allowing the golden delight she felt to colour her every thought. "Well, I am happy to see you." She huffs softly, finding it a touch harder to stroke the captain's ego the way she'd once been able to do so easily now that the words and thoughts she'd only pretended at before were becoming more and more true.

"Oh yeah, sure." Rolling her eyes, Flora turns her head and indeed spies the silhouette of the Ark in the harbour. Frowning and wondering if she'd somehow missed her this morning when she'd looked for Jack glanced out her window before leaving the house, the queen hmpphs softly under her breath. "Huh, I must have just missed her when I left this morning." She murmurs, before (invisibly) shaking her head as the coffee is offered her way. "Still too hot." From her run, she means.

Jack will feel the press of Flora's hand against his shoulder at the same time the hole in the sand begins to fill in. Slorping herself out of the shoreline, she reaches for her bra, and, after a moment of fighting with it (truly there's nothing harder than putting on a sports bra when you're still slightly damp), she appears at his side; clothed, in principle, at least.

I want to be when you fall on me like night
I wanna kill the lights
