Aimery looked at the tie thoughtfully as she spoke, thinking it over. If a tie was suitable for a brother then surely a fine one like that was appropriate for whatever sort of friend Lex was.

"Yes, I don't know that this one would do for a professor," he grinned right back. It was a little too flashy for what he imagined a 'professor' to be, but, "It will suit Lex though, and if he doesn't like it then next year he shall receive two ties."

Actually, maybe Aimery would get him a second gift anyway, just in case. He shrugged that thought away and extended his hand to her, still grinning, "Thank you. I'm Aimery."
