Another quick grin from Claude in regards to lashes, and then it's to wait for Jesper to consider the possibilities of the sketch. He absently drums a couple fingertips against the table, half-watching some passersby eying what's for sale before they stop at a stall nearby. First, he assumes, since that interest was too much to be idle, though his attention's pulled back to the other man when he speaks.
"I'd think it would." Less confirmation about it looking good on her and more of an inside joke with himself in knowing it will, really, and there's no small amount of amusement in his voice while saying so. It's a relief to hear it's possible and he trusts Jesper to see it through in what's created, mostly because he knows the man has far more experience in creating things than anyone else around.
But that's also stalling, really, when it comes to addressing the latter part of what was said and not without a grin at Jesper's disappointment over having less of a shot. It's casually asked enough, at least, that even Claude won't loop back into his usual circular tendencies when it comes to answering since a real answer's likely deserved here. "We've known each other for too many years for the bickering to ever stop given it's a mainstay of our relationship, but I'd like to hope it's changed varieties slightly from what it's been as of late.
"And," holding up a finger as though he's about to impart the most important thought of all to that, "I probably have a lot of gifts to make up for some of it, so I think we're off to a good start here though I wouldn't say no to any other recommendations you have to go with it."
