Hilda spots the tears and is quick to reach her other hand into her purse for a handkerchief. "I'd make you any number of necklaces, Claire! You can always just ask me and it'll never be a problem." Extending it out towards the corner of Claire's eyes she dabs away whatever dampness might have been there. It gives her something to do, preoccupying herself so that she doesn't feel too overwhelmed by the showing of emotion lest she tear up too.
"Something for me?" She looks a little surprised, but gives Claire's hand a comforting squeeze back in return. Her demeanour perking up might only be a little bit put on in an attempt to bring some levity back to the situation. "Well you know me. I'll never turn down a good surprise."
