JACK
That's pretty much that, then, and Jack's fingers close around the empty air and fall back to his side, the captain wanting suddenly to throw something hard and far off the edge of Aumakua's island and far away, deep into the ocean. "Right," he mutters. "I suppose I'd better get on that, then." Figuring out what he actually wants, that is, if his dithering around on the beach only to return to Flora's side every time hasn't been him doing exactly that.
"I'll see you around, Flora." Or he won't. The mess has just gotten messier, and given that the Doubletake is going nowhere and he's suddenly just as inclined to put distance between them, he does step away from her on the sand to walk away across the beach and into the swaying grasses. At least there's one fair thing to come from all of this - now they're both hurt.
