Summary: She'll never leave.
(He's not Jacob)
Jack brings people to the island because he needs to fix them. Claire taunts his survivors, tears through the jungle because she wants to - because sometimes she hates him for leaving - never because she wants to leave herself.
(Jack seals the cracks in the glass and doesn't understand - she needs the wine to survive)
She visits him in his broken statue and lets him pretend he can fix her too, his healing hands slipping under her rough black shirt, curving carefully around her breasts.
It always happens this way, Jack, she whispers as he drinks her in.
(She's a better Samuel than Samuel ever was)
