JACK
Flora needs to do him a favour and stop thinking about things, giving Jack a second to wrap his mind around all of this. It doesn't help that the Doubletake has a habit of firing off a flurry of thoughts when she's nervous, or that her breath snatch idea happens to be a very good one, and the captain's fingers squeeze against her a little as he's forced to wall her off at least slightly in order to gain some breathing room. "Yeah, no... that makes sense," he says of Mort and the god of death's tenuous hold on her, given her heritage.
Which makes the fact that she's extended such a gift to him practical, yes, but Jack can no longer block out the underlying meaning behind it all. "What the fuck, Flora," he mutters, still holding the feather between his fingertips as he uses that same hand to reach out and tilt her face up towards his own. Much as he'd have cared about the coffee and whiskey even a minute ago, now the warmth all seems to radiate out from Flora, and as he leans in to kiss her it will be with cold lips and a body hidden under layers, but he doubts she'll misunderstand his desire for her beneath them.
