Kaisel
It's rare to find Flora without good footing in a situation, and even rarer that he can't fathom why. She lurches as if they're on Torchline's shore, the tide rapidly pulling the sand from under her feet, sneaking it away where the arch of her foot can't hold it so tightly. His attention shifts back to her as her words break, curiosity breaking apart into confusion, and then steadily, concern as she rolls into him as one might try to hide from being awake when sleep is still so nearby.
"What?" he manages to get out before abruptly closing his mouth and just neatly folding her into him. He makes the motion seem ordinary, bowing into the side of her neck as if they could be deemed nothing more than a pair of condiments showing PDA—honey and a rather off-color ketchup, maybe a cheeto-brand version. Even the angle of the umbrella, guided with the arm he sweeps around her back, angles like a shield to keep them better hidden. Fabric muffles them with a crinkle and a swish, all sharp lines with little give to it.
"What are we hiding from?" he whispers, unable to see much beyond YELLOW. "There's no dom ghosts, is there?" He's inclined to poke his head up and peer around, just to be sure, but resists the ridiculous urge.

And when the day broke, buried in violence
Somethin' made my mind up
I could do this with my eyes closed
Somethin' made my mind up
I could do this with my eyes closed
Wearing a watery blue, faded and stretched-out sparkling hair tie on his left wrist
