[ Claude's sorely tempted to roll his eyes at the job comment but doesn't - mostly because he was asking for that response by bringing it up in the first place. The townhouses being ruled out makes sense considering buying something isn't something he's positive they want to do, though he resists the urge to look back over his shoulder (or rather, their collective shoulders with how they're standing) at them once more. The warehouse certainly is... not what he's expecting.
He'd promised, sort of, to listen and so he does at the explanation that Sylvain gives to two very skeptical Deer. There's a plan taking shape in his mind as the other man talks since this does make more and more sense as more details are added in - even if they've yet to see the inside. ]
So you're saying this is somewhat of a blank canvas?
[ If so, that's entirely intriguing as Claude moves his gaze from Sylvain back to the building hiding something just waiting to be customized on the interior. Or part of the interior, but that's enough. There's more questions about the logistics to be asked, he's sure, but the premise? It's worth getting excited about, and not just because he's taking the mention of a library as another promise.
He's also choosing to ignore the comment about people coming and going even if that's a given by how many times they've been through it now. ]
If you're going to give me the chance to build my own library, I'm certainly going to take it. [ The grin on his face is less forced this time around as he nudges Hilda with the arm he has around her. ] Just think about the kind of workshop we could build for you then, too. If we're talking about the upper floor then there's no limit to the natural light and let me tell you: as someone who was here for all of last summer, we're about to have a lot of it.
