Oh, is that magic called enchanting something? Hm.
[ He's feigning surprise as if this isn't something he could have possibly ever heard of before this very moment when Hilda's called it by its proper name. Or close enough to it which is what the amusement playing across his face now says as he's also trying to not smile to ruin the effect he's going for here. Never mind that both of them know what it is even if he's not (fully) tipping his hand in giving away that he has a better idea of what her lantern necklace could be destined for.
There's only so far he's willing to push that for now in the name of flustering her just a bit, so Claude looks back at the Waffle eye beads in question in their tray then to the one in Hilda's fingers before humming. ]
Well. I suppose that depends on what you'd like to do with it when it comes to either echoing wyverns and what they can do, or something else entirely? If we're going with eyes being a theme, then maybe something to help see in the dark or to use as trail markers for exploring once the sun sets.
[ That relies on taking apart something she's created, which isn't really what he wants to have as their destination, so on second thought: ] They kinda also remind me of the flame on a match, too. You could always enchant them to be a candle wick without needing something to light it like the flameless lanterns around Cadens. Safety first so then I don't accidentally burn down the inn when I fall asleep with one burning on my desk, right?
[ He's grinning, but - that's a legitimate risk, really. ]
