JACK
"However you wanna give it to me, love." Jack flinches at the drops of water sent his way out of nothing more than instinct, the cool purity of it flecking across his feverish skin and causing a smile to hook at one corner of his mouth. The fountain is empty at this time of morning, the Captain stepping up to perch himself at the lip of it, gazing down into the sparkling waters like he's seeing them for the first time in his life.
Without delay he reaches out to plunge his hands into the cool, clear depths of the fountain, his sleeves soaked and the still lingering wound on his forearm soon submerged as he gathers the water into his cupped palms. The first kiss of it is already enough to soothe something that has been festering in him since the swamp, and he lifts his hands to splash his face with the tension visibly draining out of him.
"They should consider hookin' this up to the canals," he mutters, mostly to himself as he cups a little more water to bring it to his lips. "Save us all the walk."
