Log;

The brocade of the cheongsam she’s wearing gives her fingers something to skim as she slides through the night, careful to follows Jack’s directions. It’s the first time she’s ever been out past where Jack keeps his ship, but the trip is so very worth it. The night air is still warm enough to be comfortable against her skin, and the sand is still so much warmer under her bare feet. It would be so easy for her to just appear by his side, but she’s not in the mood for it, even though she enjoys startling people most of the time.

It doesn’t take long for her to find herself spying firelight, so she wanders on until she’s lit by the flames. “Good evening, Jack.”

It's obvious she has his attention secure, so she leans even closer, draping herself almost over his legs to reach the open bottle of wine. It's a stretch, but it's a worthwhile one. She shakes her hair to the opposite side as she moves back, the bottle firmly in her grasp.

"Did you want some?"

[13-year-captain.livejournal.com]

Oh, she has his full and undivided attention. Conversation has moved on from distressing topics and Jack has relaxed a great deal.
He leans back and watches close as she leans over him and his grin is careful and wicked as she holds the bottle up for refilling.

"Oh, most decidedly. Yes."

Jack lets his eyes drift over Ran, making clear just what he wants, before holding his glass up for refilling.

Still holding onto the bottle, she shifts her legs a little bit closer. Being a drinker, she's spent plenty of time pouring for friends, so none of the precious liquid is spilled as it fills Jack's glass, then her own.

Her smile moves to match his; wicked and full of promise.

"You've got good taste, Jack. I'm not usually a wine drinker. I prefer... stronger poisons."

[13-year-captain.livejournal.com]

"I should have known better than to treat you as I would any other woman. You're far more to my taste... We could have had strong rum and raucous laughter rather than the soft words and wine so many fancy."

Jack raises his glass, so expertly filled, and toasts to Ran's common interest in powerful drink.

"I do hope you'll forgive my misjudging you... I often forget just how good my taste is." He smiles and leans a bit closer. Jack runs fingers through Ran's hair, tilting his head to silently ask permission.

"Soft words and wine are a good thing to all women, Jack, but some of us just have a wider appreciation for many different things." The fingers in her hair make her hum lightly, tilting into his touch.

It isn't a far reach for her to brush her lips over his, murmuring, "I'll have to remind you, then..."

[13-year-captain.livejournal.com]

He meets her eyes and smiles against the soft touch of her lips. "That I might never again forget..."

Jack closes the small, remaining distance and kisses Ran slow and firm. His fingers work farther into her hair and press her closer to him.
