JACK
Jack's eyebrows raise, suggesting that he very much does want to argue against that point, but in the end he merely releases a long, steady breath and uncurls his fingers from her wrist to let her continue. She steps closer and he doesn't stop her, his eyes dropping from her face as her words lance like arrows against his magic. His smile is wry, a little bitter, but understanding in the end. "I would hazard," he says, just to be a shit about it, "that your parents would have done a lot more if you had just skipped into Haulani when that barrier went up."
But of course, they all know just how she'd tied herself in knots over that little mess as well, don't they? Finding no further questions on his tongue, Jack's shoulders slump a little further; Flora is right - he hadn't liked what she had to say. But she has said it, and he has listened. Raising his eyes towards her, he tilts his head. "If there's anythin' I can do on my end to help, you let me know."
