JACK
Jack can't recall his last time standing like this, sharing easy warmth with another person and letting himself be the ballast for someone else to find strength against. His exhaled sigh will be barely audible to The Ark, even as her arms tighten around him possessively, and he relaxes imperceptibly into her embrace. The Captain will not be owned by anyone but his ship; that much is all too clear now if it hasn't been so before, and as she straightens up he's already able to sense the resolve that ices over her mind.
"Train you the way I train?" he echoes, his smile catlike and amused. "You already got enough scars, love." Playfully said, Jack is nevertheless reluctant to throw her to the wolves the way he'd learned to hold his own. That doesn't mean they can't hone their skills together though, and he offers her a steady nod. "I reckon you could too," he agrees about the bottle, not to mention her other skills. "Storms are in your blood same as they're in mine, I reckon. Just gotta find out how to tease 'em out."
And they will - later.
"No good tryin' right now though. That bump to the head is gonna play hell with your aim."
