JACK
It is not second-rate, thank you very much, and Jack had supplied it to the entire tavern, though he supposes he'll forgive Flora this one for mistaking his supply crates for the others that arrive on the regular. Either way, he sucks the whiskey from his finger and raises his eyebrows at her s u b t l y; she can guess where his fingers have been, and where they might yet go if she's good.
"What kind've idiot would answer that sort of question in the first place? It becomes obvious if I tell you," he points out, taking another sip of whiskey and setting the glass down just as Flora promptly disappears. It's impressive, even the captain can admit that, and if the Doubletake wants subtle, it's in the very slight shift in his smile that indicates his pride in how far she's come.
Still, never one to let anyone wave their flag too high (unless it's his own), Jack reaches out to gently pinch at Flora's cheek. It could easily be attributed to guesswork, of course, from the placement of the pen in relation to everything else, but he's nonetheless confident about it.
