Jigano nodded at the promise, knowing how crazy life had been and how little time there had been for little else but surviving since they had arrived. He had made his offer, and Caiside would know where to find him when the time came, and that was all that needed to be said on it for now. Besides, he was distracted by the effort of polishing up the metal of his lantern until the silver inside shone with glossy brilliance, sure to reflect and amplify the light of any candle or wick that was set inside it. As he finished assembling the piece, sliding the panels into place and affixing the top so he could lift it by the twisted rod of its handle, he laughed at Caiside's forgetfulness. "Hopefully there will be gifts aplenty at this party!" he declared, but his gaze warmed at the generous offer. "And... thank you for that. I would be honored, indeed, for such a gift." He gave a little bow from where he stood, before he began sweeping the metal shavings from his efforts - particularly the silver ones - into a small container.
The talk of 'catching rays' left him bemused and then a little yearning for such a day. "I... surely I must have," he protested faintly. "Back in... well. Flowerbirth, maybe?" But even his walks in the woods had usually had a purpose - studying his Caido herbals, hunting, helping out friends. There was always something that needed doing, however small. "But if you insist I don't think I can turn you down!" he added, rueful and grateful both, that his friend would watch out for him like this.
