JACK
For some, perhaps, this might be like descending into something other, something that belongs wholly to the sea and the ships and all the creatures in between them. For Jack, though, it's just like coming home. There had been an ocean before there had been much else for him - before there had been an Ark, before there had been telepathy, before things like blood and smoke and bitterness had even existed as words in his vocabulary.
Before all of that there had been surf and sand and the strange, undulating warmth of the tide, and it's to all of those things that he surrenders himself now. His fingers close easily around her own, something wry and playful in his expression as she eddies them along, as sleek and graceful beneath the water as she is riding atop it. You've got more than siren song is what he'd say if he could. She's brimming with the sort of magic he knows all too well indeed, and so it's perhaps little surprise that Jack remains a passenger in this game for only a short, indulgent while.
A minute later and his own magic surges at his heels, spearing them more quickly through the water as if to see how fast they might go.
