say you need more space, what are you, an astronaut?
"Mm? Oh. Yes." How easy it was to forget that Jack was just...there in her thoughts. Even when she'd stopped thinking of nipples and ginger curls. "How long?" She wonders sleepily. How long have you been able to do this for?
"Almost, as important." Eloise says, reaching out a surprisingly strong hand to rub Jack's shoulder. To other ears it might have been interpreted as a sweet sentiment; no, you're more important Jack. But that wasn't what it was. The Ark might be a quirky old girl, but her vindictiveness could be directly mapped onto how well she was taken. Though the same could almost be said of Jack, he was a wildcard in the way the Ark never would be.
If Eloise could only choose one to know inside and out, it'd be Jack. Lucky for her, she didn't have to choose. Yet.
