[SE] you're so gorgeous

Soleil

I was born a lover
And I will die that way

As planned, Noe takes the proverbial bait and goes running with it, sharing her enviable knowledge freely while Soleil simply basks in having given the young woman a stage to stand on from which she could showcase her brilliance. "Out with the old and in with the new!" she croons in agreement as if she is half as invested in the intricacies of the lanterns sitting in their possession as the young Carpenter. At least Noe's explanation had made it easier for Soleil to copy her adjustments, already better understanding the mechanics of the lantern because of it.

"I can tell Edmund you're interested! Or I can introduce you to him - I think we're going on a scouting party soon?" Speaking of, she'll need to check in on that herself, lest she accidentally miss it and paint herself as a flaky guild member. It's a more enticing thought than moping at least. Not that Noe lets her do that for long.

Still, Soleil doesn't let the topic drop without a dramatic groan. "I guess you're right. All the more reason to adventure, hm?" Ah, and there it is. The return of the mischievous sparkle to Soleil's amber eyes, the quirk of her lips as she nudges her foot against Noe's.

Lavender forever, kiss it till it's better
Honey sticky fingers for life
