\\ Get my pretty name out of your mouth \\
Flattered by him agreeing with her a second time that day, Thal's smile is sweeter, full of self-satisfaction as she leans on her usual playfulness. "Glad to know I'm not totally useless." She may not enjoy shopping as a hobby, but it's nice to know she has an eye for quality, and even more surprising - that she knows Asta well enough to find something that matches his preferences.
She chuckles at his decisive enthusiasm, the way he simply gathers his choices in his arms, no hint of hesitation or uncertainty. "As long as you're happy." Someone who didn't know her might find the flat statement rude or sarcastic, but there's a deeper meaning that lingers, one that Asta might recognize as genuine pleasure. Her head shakes in disbelief, but her smile remains, satisfied to see his mood so much improved. At least she knows exactly how to cheer him up next time.
