Were it anyone else and any other occasion, Jack would not have only felt victorious - he'd have been pressing the advantage, too. So let it never be said that what exists between Flora and the captain (complex and unconventional though it might be) is a lie, because Jack is already reaching for the vial of fountain water in his back pocket, brought along just in case he managed to do some damage to himself on what should have been a solitary training session on the island.
"Flora," he says in a low voice, frowning at her insistence even as he completely understands it. It's the only warning she'll get, of course, and as she continues, it's with a soft sigh that Jack takes his hand back out of his pocket. Feeling more in control of the lightning now than he ever has done, it takes startlingly little effort for him to crackle down another whiplash of electricity, snapping it out towards her shoulder.
