JACK
To Jack's credit, he does as he's asked when Flora's words slip against the tide of his magic like an oar through still water - and it's not just because any sudden movements might have her skewering him with his own dagger. A muscle feathers in his jaw, just slightly, but his eyes remain closed and his hands in his lap, toying absently with one of the mageglass rings that will do precisely nothing against Pierce should he decide to use his own abilities.
"I see," he says softly, almost under his breath; the path they sit beside is fairly empty anyway, and he can't sense anyone listening in, but he keeps his words quiet nevertheless. "Tell me everything." How she plans to do it - how she plans to avoid the obvious repercussions, too - and if she has any help. "Includin' if there's somethin' you need from me."
