That's- unexpected, she wants to say sweet but it doesn't seem to fit, seems too silly and immature all of a sudden. She glances back to Ilde, smile growing on her face. "Ilde, you're exceptional. And I can't wait. Thank you." Saying you're exceptional is odd, people don't say things like that, but she manages to avoid making it sound stagey or forced, her voice a low murmur. And her smile spreads more- she can go from surprised to touched to slightly wicked so easily. She holds the box close and takes a few steps back, still facing Ilde so she can talk; "I'm going to have to find somewhere safe to put this until just before dawn comes. Come on, come with me, I'm not going to maroon you in my living room. You know, I've never even heard you play anything before, how did we let that happen?"
