JACK
Mel isn't wrong (loathe as Jack is to admit it even within the sanctity of his own mind) but neither does her being right create time in his schedule for the sorts of shenanigans she's prone to inflict on Caido's citizens. Perhaps another time in another season, though, the Captain shooting a wry smile her way and leaving it at that, feeling a knot of tension - a surprising one, given that he'd never admit that it had been there - start to ease behind his ribs.
Eyes lighting up a little more (and Mel will recognise the expression as a flavour of wicked amusement) at the prospect of both working with Vesper and hassling the ocean's pirate population, Jack inclining his head towards her as if in recognition of her efforts. "You'll be first on my list," he drawls, before glancing out at the sheets of rain beyond the prow of The Ark. "For now though, you flown over here before? I gotta leave the ship for a bit an' I'm lookin' for the least dangerous bit of the swamp to get low enough."
