JACK
It's a dangerous moment to be sure, but not necessarily for Flora. Jack reads her intentions a second before she reaches out, and in his mind he's already snapped out a hand to grab her wrist (and maybe twist it, maybe sprain it, maybe break it for good measure). He absolutely has killed for less, but he's also seen into the minds of things that are much bigger and much scarier than he is.
For anyone guessing, one of those things happens to be Flora's dear old dad.
And so she succeeds in plucking the cigarette from his lips, even if the flat stare he levels her way is one that would look more fitting on a muzzled lion. Continuing to draw the air out of the fire and accepting the whiskey to knock it back in one, Jack rises to his feet to peer over at the herbs she's using. "Mm, that'll probably taste like shit, even if you didn't burn it," he agrees. "What were you meant to use? Prob'ly got it on th'Ark."
