Affectionately rolling her eyes, Flora huffs quietly against her friend's arm. "I take that means Koa hasn't figured out you're literally miles out of his league and he should be so lucky that you're even still talking to him?" Undoubtedly, the Luminary would already have said something if Koa had made that realization, but Flora wouldn't ever miss an opportunity to remind her bestie just what an honest-to-gods catch she really was.
For a moment Flora imagines what it might be like to swan into the Hanged Man, checking off supply lists with Nova and going through various orders with Caly, getting Vesper to move things around with her shadows. As simply as it seems, her nose immediately wrinkles as she shakes her head softly. "Hella awkward I think. I mean, not only is there now the Caly and Kai of it all, but those are Jack's kids." Sitting up if only to peer at her friend, an unhappy streak of crimson streaks across the bridge of Flora's nose as Jack's final words float back to her, before she hears them echoing through the little scene she'd tried to imagine.
"And my current plan is basically to try and avoid him for the foreseeable future, so..." Pausing, Flora feels an ache building low in her belly, that, when it rises, is sharp behind her ribs. "I think maybe I lost my bar."

How can a person know everything at 18 but nothing at 22?
