Raising her eyebrows, having heard nothing (nor previously cared) at all about the changes in King's End, Flora is suddenly extremely invested. "Is that so.." She hums, eyes narrowed softly as she looks to Jack. "Anything I could help with..?" Whatever the pair are to one another, helpful for the sake of it is certainly not it.
Looking down at her ringed fingers and giving them an experimental flex, the Doubletake looks at her palms for a moment before looking back to Jack. "I think I could take him. In a fight." She murmurs softly. "Maybe not out on the open waters, but.." Having been eyeing up the residents of Torchline in a way she hadn't ever done previously, Flora had realized that at some point she'd gotten hella strong without even really being aware. Only now that she was, even she knew she had to be careful about throwing her weight around too much.
"I don't want to threaten him with it, so much as...I guess I wish there was a way of saying gee, do you know how easy it would be to have my dad cart you off to the Cordillera where you couldn't get down and then I could just step in without having had to do anything more than write a letter? or even, if you can't beat me in an arm wrestling contest do you really think you could beat me in a duel for the crown?" Sighing, Flora shrugs. "It would just be so much easier if he could figure it out on his own that this is his only real option, you know?"
