know i'll stay beside that telephone line
Rolling her eyes with all the arrogance of a child that didn’t really know that much better, Caly can’t hide the amusement and agreement that blossoms under her skin. She doesn’t have any qualms with telling people they’re right, a sort of subtleness that makes it easier for people to hang onto her words later down the line when they thought she actually valued her opinion. But with Jack, it was different, not only because he was her father but because he’s also the sort of someone that Caly admires the fuck out of.
At his next comment about her brother, though, a very girlish uuuugh leaves her before it breaks into a soft chime of a laugh, an incline of her head. “Yeah, yeah, I know. He’s real good at it.” She doesn’t feel the need to add believe it or not because both of them were of the mind that Vesper absolutely could. And he’d have zero qualms with it.
Softening, though, the young attuned listens as Jack explains what all Safrin had done for him, for all the deals he’s made with her — some of them ending in the result of her existence. “That’s pretty neat.” She says, coming closer to inspect the compass tattoo despite her answer covering most of everything else, too. The Ark flying, immortality. All things she could also get behind, but a quick escape was one that she appreciated and more.
