JACK
"Mm, right, because this was all so easy and ordinary before," Jack says around his cigarette, the words warped by his sudden smile, and before he knows it his laughter is echoing out into the dark, the captain taking a long drag of the smoke and flicking the ash onto the beach. "Can't be weirder than it already is. I think I've given up doin' more than rollin' with the punches." Easy for Jack to say now, granted, with a relationship with his brand new son apparently not as tempestuous as he'd expected, with Flora tucked under his arm, and with no small amount of alcohol in his system, perhaps he's a little more easy going than he otherwise might be.
Glancing down at the way her thoughts slow and hesitate, the surprise is brief but plainly written on Jack's face, and though it's true that the darker parts of him are prone to resentment at the knowledge, to wanting to be able to tear down any flimsy wall that gets between him and what he wants, eventually he lets out a sigh and forces his shoulders to relax. "Hope it's got an on/off switch, for the sake of the amount of sex I plan to have with you," he drawls. "But... no, that's no bad thing. Especially since I bet he'd like your mind as much as I do."
