JACK
You look great too, Jack might have quipped had he been in anything like his right mind. Alas, he can barely squint against the light that pours through the open doorway, haloing Flora in sunshine and the smell of the woods. Having been blessedly absent for her actual death, all he can register is that she's on her feet if not still hurt, and that she's calling his name.
The rush of emotion that charges through him is a mix of fury at the memory of when he'd last heard it from her lips (having just come back to life doesn't count) and something else, but either way the crackle of electricity that creeps along the walls is enough to put a hairline crack through the cabin windows. It's also enough to completely deplete any energy he's managed to put in reserve, but such is the vicious circle Jack has found himself in.
"I want to go home," he rasps, a cold hand slipping from beneath the blankets to seek hers out.
